I never felt disabled until I got a significant other who wasn't as familiar with my ADHD symptoms. When we get up to go do an errand I tend to execute my todo list very quickly thinking I will lose the opportunity. I'll do dish

The support we want vs the support we need. Some supervisors are good at determining what resources you need, most are not.

I would love that actually. Maybe bugtracking doesn't need to be intimately interwoven with git, but it could be stored as a submodule?

It occurs to me that things will stay the same, or even get better. This thing will produce better liars. We're used to lying to our managers to get the support we want, and now we'll have an easier time with EMAI. Further, if

Oh certainly: I would /hate/ my version control software locking me into a particular bug tracking methodology. However, I think in the same way the browser has become the standard runtime for most applications that we will need

I'm convinced things like git will need to include bugtracker capabilities at some point. A commit log is one thing, but internalizing decision matrixes and issue reports will be important to not repeating the mistakes of the past 4 d

Before this, you could take advantage of their poor planning and not keeping parts or offering repair service. Now they're required by law - as long as the product is still being sold. I liked getting new stuff freely :-)

I'm not a lawyer. Would this make it harder to invoke California's Songs-Beverly Act for device replacement? (California's Lemon Law) Previously, you could buy an appliance >$100 and if it broke in 5-7 years you could as

There are a couple reasons I can only back Gnome at this point, even though I loved/miss XFCE. Wayland multi-seat + idle-inhibition HDR + variable refresh Fractional scaling (I think XFCE has some/all of this?) We're just pla

How does one do the equivalent in Linux with nftables? It's very cool that you can create a logging interface.

I know I'm naive: I don't understand why US companies are so sensitive to respecting Israel. I don't know why our gov is so sensitive to this either. Israel - like all countries - deserves criticism, no? This can't p

I agree. I spent 2 months trying to figure out why i couldn't transcode on my truenas scale box. I was missing 1 file for the Intel GuC, and had to add some odd thing to the kernel cmdline to actually enable the guc. I think it was:

I use an extension called LocalCDN (iirc) to locally supply copies of common JS frameworks so I'm less likely to be tracked on that front. I'm sure it skews some log somewhere if I never request those libs. Now I'm off to fi

Part of the problem is reacting in real-time. The part I'm talking about: Is you can "tell" the car what to expect at this interchange, and still react in real-time to present conditions. You hear all the time about Teslas

I'm sure I'm just naive because I don't work in this space, but I keep wondering why they don't do machine learning from a satellite perspective. Yes, the cars need to notice and react to things in front of them. Howev

I think very much you're an outlier. Rampant fatigue in the tech sector is a huge problem. I do not see how mandatory 4 weeks off (paid) are mutually exclusive with PTO accrual. In my own corner, I've been elected to a board to

Sidebery is wonderful, but the real gem is Tab Stash. Lets me organize tabs into topic-related groups, with the added bonus that not all of these are "living" tabs. Some are archived/hibernated. By default, live tabs are i

I'm viewing software engineers like FAA pilots, where they must have a certain minimum amount of time between shifts so they can't [necessarily] be exhausted. But that's pertaining to long shifts. In softwareland I'm u

I have a pretty awful view of this: In the less complex jobs, they struggle to get things like paternity leave and time off. We have those. We should be looking at those ridiculous things we think we don't deserve and organizing to g

Thank you for this. I didn't know about the EURion constellation thing. Very cool/alienating examples of DRM.

Objectively it is bad to defame and distract from a public servant rescuing kids from a cave. (Objectively.)

I think we'll see gui toolkits adopt something like reactive design, where if you have the screen real estate the single-window-with-tabs will permit you to break them out to a dockable window, a modal, etc. Less choice, but I could s

There are many, many pedophiles out there. I'm also convinced of a conspiracy theory that a lot of dark web traffic and hosts are created/operated by secret parts of the gov to de-legitimize the need for anonymity. I believe thi
