Aliexpress covers the bulk of their business which is drop shipped stuff form China. Craigslist covers "used stuff from other people".

Its not a "habit", its hard-coded and there is strong evidence that forcing your sleep schedule to change has negative health consequences. Underlying all this is an insinuation that if you just eat better and exercised you'

The difference these days is that with the death of Dennard scaling and Moore's law there's a place now for customized hardware. You really can beat Intel and even NVidia now for specialized workloads with FPGAs. Of course you&#

Monopolists always have this response. Bell said similar things before their breakup - that their scale allowed them to provide a standard of service and price point otherwise impossible. History has repeatedly shown that its not true.

Having setup my life so I can simply sleep and rise naturally I'm living a perfectly normal and happy life - more productive than ever. There is nothing wrong with me and its not a terrible "fate". What is terrible is that w

We're talking about 1/5th of the population suffering needlessly. The comment I replied to merely reinforces the stereotype that there is something wrong with them - "If only you lived better you would get to sleep at a norm

In our case we're an FPGA shop looking to transition. There really needs to be a support group for people like us. We have a hard time figuring out what's even feasible.

whenever someone brings up the fact a sizeable portion of the population is forced into an unnatural sleep rythm; inevitably someone will chime in with a "I forced myself with method X and now I'm normal". It completely misse

Yea you can modify it locally. But in this context I meant redistributing your modified version a la free software. It's not much fun to play with something and then not show anyone.

People would rather have something new and unstable than refined but a little out of date. That's the sole reason tech is "bad". Any company that decides we're just going to focus on bug fixing is a dead company.

When I bought my Lenovo P50 I was unpleasantly surprised by its weight and thickness after having used MacBooks before. However I did get over it pretty quickly and swapping out batteries so I can keep working is awesome. I do need the powe

The simple problem with the two stroke is its almost impossible to prevent some gas from leaking out via the exhaust since the inhalation and exhalation happen simultaneously. Environmental standards are so stringent that this is a non-sta

If there is no license you have no rights to the software. If they are offering it for download there is probably an implied license to use the software but certainly not to modify or distribute it.

I've noticed over time that "doing nothing" is scary to most people on a subconcious level. It breaks the illusion that we have total control over our world.

People on TV are the ones that are later in their career. A police sergeant is more of a middle manager and is often not out in the field. Fitness tests ensure new officers are not overweight.

Sounds like a great system for the incumbents, and a massive cost to any new players. You give it away when you say "both sides". In fact there are many sides, and regulation all to often favours the one with the best connection

Short answer: Yes When a large structure is assembled there is a detailed engineering plan for its construction. Because you are in a catch-22 situation of parts structurally supporting each other. Designing a structure for disassembly wo

Test suites don't really explain the "why". The worst is having a hundred tests and every one of them verifying incorrect behavior - I've seen it happen.

Microsoft keeps a meticulous record of their code going back to the 90s. You start having to use older tools past 2000 but the change logs and bug databases are all there. Of course every once in a while you see the super helpful commit log

I want to reiterate what I think the broader point is - If this is the most pressing problem you have a very highly functioning team. There's only so much bandwidth for change and I frequently see it get spent poorly.

Yea all things being equal I'd choose your approach. But in an existing project that did things this way - it would be the last thing I'd touch. This is of course barring extreme circumstances - which profiling and other tools w
