I (think) I got poison ivy on my leg this past summer for the first time in my life while golfing. I must've either gotten a ton of concentrated urushiol in one spot or be very allergic because the blistering was extreme. Nasty stuff a

Hmm I'm going to need to check my Samsung ssd from oct 2021 that failed the first week of Jan 2023. I had started noticing some quirks in spring 2022 but it wasn't a super important drive so I ignored it.

Windows 11 latest installer doesn't even present the option to use a local account. However, the mechanism to bypass this is to enter in a fake Microsoft Login ID and then wait for it to fail, then select something like "Other Opt

Perpetual doesn't imply anything about revocability (thats irrevocable). The law doesn't operate in this stupid vacuum like software engineers believe it does.

I've seen these in old Boston and Brookline buildings.

Curious question, how do you folks find energy to read more text after spending hours a day reading code on a screen? I find my ability to concentrate on it totally shot. I can't concentrate on a book by the time I'm done working.

Most users aren't meteorologists. I found the precip radar view good and it was smooth for projecting out a couple hours which was important for deciding if I wanted to golf or not because it wad easy to see if a storm was likely to cl

Any reason why? Someone else mentioned they also murder their steaks... Might as well not even eat meat if you're going to incinerate it.

I dunno about Stanford, but my interactions with MITers gives me the same impression. If you didn't attend to MIT or one of the other big schools you're lesser. Maybe that's what these schools should focus on when they teach

Snap is a pile or garbage and I really wish Ubuntu would just stop trying to be a little different all the time. They learned their lesson with Upstart but I guess it'll be a few releases until the abandon Snap.

Depends on the software really. I dont hate it tho. I'm not sure why I really care if I own the software if it's a commercial product.

There is an argument to be made that the busy work and good pay of megacorps is basically designed to keep talent in place that could otherwise run off and potentially make a competitor.

Asian's themselves? No. Work culture in Asia though is IMO uncivilized. There's a culture of overwork and workplace abuse in many Asian countries.
