You've made this same comment in multiple threads, genuinely curious why you feel so strongly about this. I can only imagine you're relatively new to the working world or have never been in a layoff situation. Her reaction is perf

I wonder if you could accomplish the same with structural search tools like Comby ( https://comby.dev/ ) - with the bonus that you can target specific levels of beating since it's syntax-aware

Great so now we're treating getting accepted to a PhD as though you actually completed one. Virtually every STEM graduate from colleges like Stanford is eligible for a graduate program somewhere, it's not that big of a deal

Agreed. New systems to the game tend to just be shallow window dressing. Settlement management is literally fetch quests, or kill X number of sentinels that are attacking. A vast portion of the game revolves around finding things and shooti

Mazda removed touchscreens from all models starting 2019 or so: https://www.motorauthority.com/news/1121372_why-mazda-is-pur... So consider yourself lucky to even have the option! I personally think Mazda has the least

This is specifically about breaking the myth that performing expensive self-contained operations (e.g, parsing GraphQL) in a native extension (C, Rust, etc.) is always faster than the interpreted language. The JS ecosystem has the same prob

If we’re using “determined person” as the bar, then someone who commits 4-6 years paying tuition to get a BA or MS CS certainly seems more determined than a self taught person who spent maybe 3 months at a boot camp? Not saying that it’s fa

More like the thing was valued at $1m but if you add up all the assets and liabilities of the thing you only get $500k. Obviously when you're a capitalist and buy something, you're doing so for future cash flows, but those don

It's tough to parallelize a recipe the first time you're cooking it - unless you have a photographic memory you're gonna have to keep checking back between steps and it's easy to miss something. Ends in getting really st

It could be the way you're interpreting, but I suspect what she means is that she didn't go through and verify the exact measurements and timings in the recipe. There are simply too many variables involved in (non-baking) recipes
