I think this feels like a misunderstanding of what the PPP loans were designed to do. They were an economic incentive to keep people on payroll instead of a mass layoff or long term furlough. The correct business decision if you are no long

The infinite scroll problem I feel comes up most that if there was a useful piece of information in the middle of an infinite scroll it is likely impossible for you to return there with any sort of reliability. You can't save the URL b

Yes, it really is getting out of hand. If there was a reasonable equivalent that was an alternate (like an email address used to be), that would be one thing but even with a US phone all of a sudden your phone dies and you are completely st

I feel like I didn't get the same satisfaction out of factorio until I turned the difficulty up enough to feel like the bugs were a threat so I could lose. Admittedly I turned it up too high to get that feeling and had to restart with

I'm really hoping that gopls gets to 1.0 soon. I feel like gopls is the elephant in the room that's taking a lot of air from some of the smaller tools, and I'm glad it's being called out as a priority in this report.

One of the primary methods to join multiple learned models is a decision tree (or combination of decision trees making a decision forest), which can be simplified as a series of if statements/conditionals. So if you join a 'is it

The drones have always felt like a quixotic adventure for GoPro that seemed like a weird distraction for other product improvements. I don't even think that GoPro should be classified as part of the adventure usage category anymore, as

I started this way and my next step was taking advantage of the current package manager. The fact you can inject new functionality so quickly made me really fall in love with emacs. Adding additional programming modes/file format modes

I use a similar methodology when I write as I am often writing technical documentation and not as much fiction these days. In technical writing it is easier as there's a fundamental understanding that any base concept that's invol

Thanks for putting together this in a book, I feel like I've written this book multiple times for compliance and explained the concepts but sadly that doesn't cross employment barriers. Also annoyed that I didn't make the tim

Yeah, this is the kind of way I considered this article. There's so many operations including medical hospitals purchasers that are trying to follow the current mantra of as little idle inventory and wastage of inventory on the shelf a

For Intel chips i3/i5/i7 have generally represented feature ranges, so to really identify the chip you have to find out their product code or at least processor generation. Once you have that you can use ARK to distinguish between

I would say that it depends on the role when it comes to system design and may be reflective of your level of experience. Certain roles require you to know how to run something in a production context because otherwise the dev will make b

I think it was funny to presume that the employer wouldn't pay for it. At one of my old roles I had a second laptop I used solely for VMs just because I ran out of space on primary workstation. A simple fix orders of magnitude cheaper

I wish this data was sliced down better into full time and part time work and/or hourly and exempt jobs. I feel there are more 'bad part time' jobs now than in years past that don't allow someone to give appropriate noti

I agree with the concept that it is turning into something else, as I see DevOps/SRE/CI/PM people doing QA work through trying to just make the thing go. It just is leaving a lot of gaps in longevity, complex setup, and build

As far as I have seen there is still updating overhead where you have to initiate upgrades to a known stable/supported version at a regular cadence. EKS suggests having an E2E CI pipeline to test it before updating production, and I fe

I actually use emacs git-gutter to have a more visual way of seeing what's going into a commit or not. Having the inline annotations in the files I am working on it is great for doing the staging parts of a hunk.

Have you looked into VLC or OBS for doing this? The big issue that isn't really solved is that most desktop protocols take advantage that the image has a majority of the screen static and only small areas of the screens need updates. V

My main issue for Stadia has been that they are trying to rebadge existing games to work on Stadia instead of making a game that uses the cloud to provide a unique experience. It's one of the things that none of the other streaming com

I bought a HP small b&w office printer in 2005. I still am using the original toner I got with it then and it's still doing a fine job. I loved it so much I bought a few more to use in the office I was IT'ing for at the time,

Putting the cost on manufacturers and potentially breaking legitimate resellers just feels straight out of the Walmart strongarm playbook. It feels like it should be against some FTC regulation somewhere that a transferrer of a good has the
