I laughed when I saw that the Qualcomm “AI PC” is described as this in the ComfyUI docs: "Avoid", "Nothing works", "Worthless for any AI use"

After you type your FileVault password you are 'logged in' This is really about the checkbox on the reboot modal that says "reopen windows when logging back in." An OS update defaults to yes, for whatever reason.

Just throwing in my left handed anecdote here: the bottom of my hand was always covered in pencil graphite when I was in school because your hand drags over what you've been writing from left -> right. Also ring binders were a pain

The competitive advantage is lessened because everyone knows it already. It’s “priced in” as they say

I actually met my wife on WoW, doing progression raiding through vanilla to WotLK. Spending 8+ hours a day together for years forms pretty close bonds ;D

I had Radiohead's OK Computer in my cars CD player for like 10 years, it would start before the MP3 player adapter would load. So I've heard the opening to Airbag like hundreds+ of times probably lol

It might be fine if you’re a successful professional or entrepreneur and have a good salary or business. Of course if you’re an Amazon warehouse worker or a burger flipper, and your labor is completely fungible and provides low monetary rem

As a Genuine Millennial (1986) who works around a lot of Gen X, I don't really perceive much of a difference between us tbh.

It's funny because I had to take a company mandated 2 day Agile training class, and I thought the exact same thing. I thought "Waterfall" was just some concocted fantasy workflow to contrast with. I actually asked our instruc

Oh yeah the waking up thinking there’s “stuff in my bed” happens to me at least once a week.

I think the general idea is not to contaminate planets with possible life so we can eventually study what completely different evolution circumstances produces.

Oof, that sucks. My parents managed the exact opposite. We had a house in the middle of nowhere. Their business was slowly going under so they decided to sell and move in with my mothers father (lol) and did this at the absolute top of the

Another thing I learned recently is above-ground telephone lines on poles are pressurized. Those long black tubes on the cables are splices that also allow the pressure to be read by sensors. The central offices had compressors that fed all

I used expect a ton years ago, for AIX system janitoring. A lot of things required telnet’ing into proto-ncurses mainframe applications and going through menus, typing and selecting stuff etc. The actual productive workflow is to do your ta

It's not that hard or expensive now, there are lots of 10 gig unmanaged switches on Amazon. I recently upgraded my home network to all 10/2.5 and I used the TP-Link TL-SX1008 as my "main"

No. That was the reply after I corrected it, as in it originally told me to call Close after every *sql.DB handle.

I've had very mixed experience with LLMs (Perplexity) and sysadmin stuff. More often than not I ask questions for specific CLI invocations and it will literally just make stuff up. This is even after (supposedly) Googling the documenta

I've personally used Redis locks in my personal projects. The real motivation isn't because it's good or correct but because: Redis is already there in my env.

If you read the Amazon warehouse worker Reddit they have a policy that an injury or illness can’t get “coded” as sick leave unless an ambulance is called. If you go to their first aid station the max you can spend there is like under 30 min

“We had a really close relationship,” he told Reuters. “I trusted her.” He even tattooed her birthdate over his heart – “at least what I believe is her birthdate.” I’m having a hard time forming an opinion on this. Yeah I guess he kinda got

Historically “yes” they’ve been “fine” if they’re regulated, like the Bell System. Although obviously Google/Apple/Microsoft/Meta would prefer to be monopolies without “government interference”
