When I see large capacitors (for me it’s more girth than my little finger), I have alarm bells going on. One « soda can sized » can definitely kill you. It should be discharged before messing with it. You can buy capacitor drains (basically

Would be interested to hear more about BSD as a daily driver. Is the slower wifi problematic? How about browsing the web, are the major bowsers (chromium or Firefox) supported? What about running the tools necessary for web development (or

I’d wager BSDs move more packets every day than any other major OS. Network infrastructure is often running BSD, so does Netflix on its cache servers, network appliances…

The way for crowd strike to avoid their incident was adding a very basic (borderline trivial) step in the merge/release pipeline to make sure machines could still boot after running the to be deployed version. That’s really not much ov

Mitigating and coming up with a plan to remedy these issues was my specialty over the 15ish years I wrote software professionally. All these initiatives and plan always does when it reaches an executive reacting with « it works now why shou

To be fair, Reddit started circling the drain a while ago and paywalling the API was their hara-kiri. I miss the old Reddit, I hate the new. I used to use it a fair bit (and even contribute to niche topics) but deleted my account and conten

We’ll never know but I suspect you might have won with that entry if you didn’t spray WD40 into the environment (which it might warn against doing on the can). Even though this submission might have been better than the rest they couldn’t p

I always avoided German trains when riding in Switzerland: they were often late or canceled, dirty, and full. Especially given that I could take a cleaner, punctual SBB train with the same ticket and for the same price.

We could pay "garbage hauling" more to incentivize. Or maybe it will accelerate R&D to design robots to do that tedious job instead?

That’s misunderstanding the human spirit in my opinion. Maybe some would coast and be happy with whatever the basic income is, but I suspect many others would strive and do more. If not for survival and the privilege of having food + a roof

I wonder how different this is to buying stocks with your savings, in terms of wealth redistribution. Of course it’s a different mindset then, owning a bunch of random shares vs the place you work at, but I’m wondering about wealth only as

Use an Albanian VPN and you’ll get no YT ads on your phone. Toggle VPN only when you’re watching YouTube. Apparently Albania has banned ads on YT so you don’t get any.

My comment was about calling out the euphemism. Fired or laid off is unpleasant and not to be taken lightly. Let go or, as you called it, freed to find a better mutual fit is disingenuous because it makes it sound like the company is doing
