I found the Logitech software absolutely horrid, and a massive resource hog. There was weird agent software hogging CPU and using memory. Also, why does my mouse config software need AI features? Uninstalled.

I think it is excellent that vocabulary describing the negative impact of mental junk food is in common use. It shows that as a society we are quickly recognising the damage it can do and are creating cultural pressures against it.

Being an experienced consultant doesn't mean you know everything about everything. Hell, I put myself in that camp and I am perfectly capable of hacks, cludge, and mistakes. Be compassionate.

You're describing an eating disorder in the first part there.

I'd be tempted to RTO if offices weren't open plan distraction hell holes. My home office is quiet and I don't need to fight the open plan over stimulation.

Cite your sources. Just because something feels true doesn't make it so.

Mind boggling the mental gymnastics people are doing in this thread to deny to themselves the obvious fact that refined sugars are bad for you.

How are they not as strong? Do you have an example?

That's a lot of "this won't work" without very much "here's what does work" leading me to conclude this is bluster and ego. I always hear these finance people dick waving about how crap everyone else'

This comment I feel sure would repulse Shannon in the deepest way. A (digital, stored) bit, abstractly seeks to encode and make useful through computation the properties of information theory. Your comment must be sarcasm or satire, surely.

That's insane. It's also not just about calories. The amount of corn syrups used in drinks is crazy too. Your body will just spike your glucose and dump it to fat. It amazes me that Americans head scratch over their obesity epidem

Seems to me this drug is an antidote for an unregulated capitalist system creating an environment that preys on the human condition and as a result makes people unhealthy. It's just now selling you the antidote to the problems it made.

If you compare the typical American diet and ingredients to the rest of the world, the answer is clear. The problem is most Americans (where the obesity crisis is worst) don't know their country's businesses are selling them rubbi

Ah yes, I remember the year I lost to this and the pain of cross compilation. Reader beware.

I know someone who was on a team whose proprietary software was decompiled and it still contained the code comments. They were made public. They were horrific. Assume all code may become public.

Do you want an echo chamber? Perhaps just being fed with opinions you agree with? We should celebrate opinions that go against local conventions

Yes yes because the solution to the myopic God complex of the tech industry is more of it. Wow. Really chugging the coolade.

If humans have a talent for anything, it is mechanising the pollution of the things we need most. The earth. Information. Culture. Knowledge.

I was looking for a product recently. I wanted to buy from a UK business. I found countless Web stores pretending to be UK businesses complete with founder stories and convincing copy... All turning out to be Chinese fronts. They know the t

Yes but you can't demote the stress element because the remuneration element is larger. They're not dependent variables at the point the stress is felt. Stress isn't less stressful just because you get to take a holiday after

Relative hardship comparisons generally suck. "hah you think retail is hard, imagine working for a drug gang in Africa! You'd go back to retail in a snap!" Stress is stress. It makes you unwell. The remuneration isn't th

Also, go get counselling or therapy with a professional (none of this life coach quackery). It made me a better human.
