   I know over three engineers who left their companies because of the stringent bureaucracy expectations, filling out reports and the like. It was boring to them. They all got new jobs within a week. Unlike other positions, for engineers, it&

   So nothing stops a copyright infringer re-uploading the content with a new ASIN? I think only a hefty fine for both the infringer and Amazon would make them think twice about doing it again.

   MBP heating issues are from the fact that the dedicated GPU doesn't get enough cooling, the frame is too small. Add https://github.com/0xbb/gpu-switch - run the integrated gpu only - and you will never listen to a

   Hidden sleeping gas canister that deploys when engine starts without a secret switch deactivating (bluetooth or regular) - alerts you when it does. Worst case you forget to turn it off and fall asleep a couple hours.

    Cool but not the system I'm thinking of: A complete real time tweaking of per wheel outputs based on live slip/velocity/momentum for perfect AWD.

    No steering wheel...that is an interesting idea, I don't think pressure would be a problem, but sensitivity might be.

    You're completely correct, but the only way people will understand how bad the UI is if they were forced to use it in their daily.

    I get what you're saying but Redis found popularity way before clouds started offering it. Clouds later further contribute (and profit) to the ecosystem, but make no mistake they didn't help create or spend any resources for that

    Are you talking about blocking other requests to the request handler or to external endpoints? Because both can be solved in a sync server via thread pools.

    So you weren't productive during that entire time?
