I don’t think the issue is with “good-ol’-boyism” The root issue is that human beings are racist or otherwise prejudiced and that’s causing way more problems in many more areas And prejudice is natural human behavior. Anyone can become prej

You can just make Zoom use any webcam on your system And you can write your own webcam drivers to use in any program Or use existing software with virtual webcam output like OBS or ManyCam and write a plug-in for that Our emit a network vid

Ultimately someone has to pay for hosting. Unless open source projects are going to pay to exist, you can’t have cake and eat it too.

I believe they’re told that they’re just scamming rich people or something like that so that they don’t feel remorse

Try doing support when everyone has a different setup Or your software has all these customization options Or your product has a bunch of different configurations What was already hard just became a thousand times more painful

I don’t see why a project should strive for a lack of leadership Most things in life that don’t have leadership become messy and disorganized and eventually disintegrate into an unstable hell with no real focus

I can’t tell if it’s because they had a good process and the tools didn’t fit or because they have a terrible process and nothing was going to work for them anyway I see the latter much more often when I jump companies and Google’s projects

If those crops could be grown better elsewhere, I assume they would already be. But they’re not so I assume that’s not the case. Honestly this is a problem economics is ultimately best at solving IMO. If water supply does slow then prices w

Don’t let perfection be the enemy of good We don’t put locks on our doors because they’re unbreakable but because they are the right compromise between cost and benefit

But the output is actually effectively emitting special string types (or flags on the main string type — whatever) in the background transparently (either at compile-time or runtime). And that’s possible due to a language design with suffic

by thrashh 4y ago
You can probably do it trivially in any language with operator overloading or a very expressive type system However you would also probably want a language with some syntactic sugar that let users use your special string type easily otherwi

While daylight definitely varies, I believe the spectra for the sun at noon at sea level is reasonably even and would be the main goal (as opposed to mimicking daylight in the morning or towards the arctic). CRI doesn’t measure vibrant red

Sure, it’s still the case but my point that it’s not anywhere nearly as bad as it is on Amazon. I can at least navigate a world of differing advertising budgets. I can’t even begin to navigate an Amazon listing of copy-cat products or even

OK… I know plenty of non-engineering people who can’t tell or bother either. And it’s not simply being aware or not. We aren’t all born with the same senses. I can spot extremely minute color variations on tests but I have never been able t

I think people look at marketing and see all the bad examples. But nearly every product you use has a marketing budget and the only reason they are around is because they spent that budget. To me, marketing is a sign that you are serious ab

A lot of people barely notice poor CRI lights. Heck people will mix bulbs of different color temps and not even bat an eye. The issue is definitely the power usage. It’s not reasonable to dedicate that much power for the relatively minimal

by thrashh 4y ago
But why would you compare when the goal is not to maximize your power usage before tripping a breaker. It is to get light.

Disagree. I think we haven’t curtailed big tech because we haven’t figured out what that involves (without dire consequences). What does it exactly involve anyway?

Occupy Wall St failed because it had no agenda in my opinion. The agenda for LGBT rights movement? Marriage equality in law. You’ve got a clear goal. Civil rights movement? Equal suffrage, repeal of discriminatory laws. You can’t take actio

I think it’s both. Honestly it’s like a lot of problems where it’s easier to solve when it’s one big thing as opposed to 1000 little things. Imagine cutting one big expense out of your budget versus having to cut 1% out of 500 things. One o

That’s like saying that your grandma was able to keep per collection of 4 books perfectly sorted 100% of the time so why can’t a public library of 50,000 books?

Yeah but Twitter bought it and then shut it down because they couldn’t make any money from it

Cuz ultimately everything costs some money to do (and even your own time is money) and we’re all trying to do the most possible with the least amount of money

The reason for the conflicting advice is because people keep making new package managers that still suck overall. Like they fix one major package manager problem and somehow neglect the other 60% of problems. So you end up with all these di

I think Quibi sounds terrible too. I don’t think TikTok is much better but you don’t have to be amazing when you’re the first one.

There’s definitely more quality to the park. There’s also more people but I think that’s an entirely separate issue. There are just more people on Earth than there was 10, 20 or 500 years ago. Maybe we aren’t building enough new attractions
