It is, I suppose that's the joke. But now we find out Feng Shui says the folks with smaller living rooms had the right idea all along. Anecdotally, I've lived in both types of setups and vastly prefer layouts conducive to seating

I'm not in the community, so I'm taking this article at face value. If I read correctly, he made software that possibly exploited a security gap, they asked him to remove it, then he demanded free hardware. They said no, and the

That's funny, because there was a joke going around many years ago that you could tell how much money someone had by how far their couch was from the wall. Out of curiosity, I was trying to find a source for that, but didn't find

Same. All I can do is vote with my wallet. I tend to spend more to do business with folks that are more personable, and actually answer calls should I need them. So far it's my mortgage company, bank/credit cards, ISP, and who

I feel like you just stated what I said but with more details. Admittedly, it's not for everyone. But it will work for the vast majority of filers.

FreeTaxUSA is pretty close. I live in a no tax state so it is completely free. I think state tax is $15. Hate to sound like a shill, but they've been great. I have a more complicated return than most, but not everyone, and it handle

Great tools really. I wish they'd bite the bullet and change the battery. Make adapters or have a trade in program. I know that's their schtick, but it's time.

I don't know all the details because I'm not a cryptologist, but Wire messenger seemed to have solved this in a way that wasn't annoying. I haven't used it since they pivoted, so can't speak much to its implementat

I think that's fairly standard for Wikipedia. Most tools have no page at all, and popular tools will typically have a small wiki with the author in black text. Then an author who writes multiple widely used tools may or may not get a

That's the takeaway - that people are supposed to be bored in line? I wasn't insulting the people, I was describing what to me is the awful human experience of shopping at Costco.

by silisili 5mo ago
I've only been to Costco a handful of times in my life. It seems like each time, there were hordes of people standing lifelessly in a huge line waiting to check themselves out(sometimes with help from an employee), which took longer t

As is the overlap between DNSSEC and DNS itself, to be honest. I once worked at the level of administering DNSSEC for 300+ TLDs. It's its own world. When that company was winding down, I tried to continue in the field but the most co

> The other thing I do is keep it soft focused on them, 100%, until they ask me about me. This is the big one. People like to talk about themselves, and often use others' stories to segue it into something about themselves. I reali

I buy it. I'm not really into meditation, but am deep thinking/reflection. I found I got by far the most intense deep thinking sessions while mowing the lawn with a push mower. It was a large-ish yard, took around an hour. It&#x2

I had a yard of mostly white clover years ago. The neat thing is that animals love it, I'd get 3 or 4 rabbits in my yard each morning - they seem to eat the white flower off the top. The other nice thing is they don't need cuttin

I thought lightning bugs were mostly from light pollution and deforesting? I live in the woods not near a major city, and every summer there's thousands of them still, thankfully.

Same. The entire company more or less turned on him. Not picking a side, that's your right. But to then start 'borrowing' from someone you refused to work with feels... hypocritical.

Quake1 was my first love. From the old DOS version to the GLQuake to grappling hooks on Trinicom. I was amazed not only by said demo system but by QuakeC, and how heavily it was used, especially in college communities. I remember MIT and

If the story is as presented, that's a shame and I'm sorry that happened to you. That said, it's really a story of doing the wrong thing at nearly every turn. Why date someone on your team, you admit you knew better. HR is n

You're absolutely right to call this out. No humans, no emotion, no real comments - just LLM slop. In all seriousness, agreed. The top comment at time of this writing seems like a poor summarizing LLM treating everything as the best

Not to be a jerk, but it'd be helpful for a reader to know how and why you came to that conclusion.

Interesting, how does the draw weight compare? I have to give up shooting bigger compounds because my shoulder couldn't take it anymore unfortunately.

Tennessee is listed, but it's only really restricting power companies from expanding outside their electric reach. It doesn't really damper anything, Tennessee has among the highest rural FTTH coverage in the US. There are tiny c

You really don't need a full on faraday cage. Signals in the phone frequency range are pretty poor at penetration, especially brick or concrete. I once lived in a house with lath and plaster walls, and I had to leave the office door

Probably the other direction. Emotions are raw, most humans relate and change behavior accordingly. Only psychopaths think of emotion as nothing but a means to changing behavior. The scary thing is that LLMs by nature would exhibit the sa
