I work in the medical field and my brain cells have been constantly assassinated for years by bad presentations. Every once in a while I find unicorns - people who tell a story, teach and present using…
I'll try and write some thoughts on this so maybe you can understand where I'm coming from. I feel that a lot that makes Prometheus a good movie in itself is how it's paced and the graphical effects, albeit it still…
I agree, when Ridley Scott does something nowadays all I can think about is how he will ruin it. Villeneuve is an absolutely amazing director, but my personal feelings towards Ridley Scott after Prometheus and Alien…
When I access the post it sends me to the following page --- Sorry, a potential security risk was detected in your submitted request. The Webmaster has been alerted. Reference ID: *.****.*****.**** You can proceed to…
Funnily enough I was reading the other day how some BMWs will come without a touchscreen due to the silicon/chip crisis and I actually thought that was a plus. Seriously, whomever thought it was a good idea to make cars…
I'd like to meet some of those people. iOS changed, but not in a way that it hampers usability - and by this I mean basic usability. Texts, calls -> these are the important bits in a phone, not 5000 weather apps that do…
It's just another way of saying "kids grow by themselves and school educates them" instead of actually becoming involved with the process and shielding the child from big tech which feels like a rather big threat to…
Yes, I am sure that the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre article [1] is full of misinformation according to China, seeing that they actively pursue people who speak up about it where they have jurisdiction and those…
This reminded me on how nice Netflix was when it started and how obnoxious it has become. Just like Amazon and Facebook. Small starts, nice things. Then it starts being mildly annoying, then it just intrudes everywhere…
Seriously, I would never have expected that somebody would unironically go on and compare VW with Ferrari. You literally have no idea what Ferarri is and what they do and where they do it and how they hire their…
It is also completely unreasonable to assume your clients all upgraded to the previous model which still had an USB-C charging brick when all the previous chargers had a USB-A port.
I think what the parent comment meant was that the pollution debt will be automatically paid when civilization collapses and industry basically stops functioning. A good way of looking at the situation is that the Earth…
I think that's ~xXN0oBMa573r69Xx~ tho.
The fact is that Razer sells a LOT of keyboards and they have been pushing Synapse on the users. I got out of that years ago and I currently run a custom keyboard running QMK. The users are just fanatically tolerating…
Even looking within western EU, things could have been done so much better - remember how poorly Italy handled the start of the pandemic? But the true disaster is in Eastern and to a lesser degree central EU, as well as…
This reminds me of a practice a recruiter used to boast when I applied for a job - throwing half the applications in the shredder without even reading them because they didn’t want to work with “unlucky people”. Albeit…
Well first of all I am not a mathematician, but I enjoyed assimilating the basic principles of math. Considering the problem as follows: "Bob and Alice have 10 candies in total, and Bob has 2 more candies than Alice.…
Genuinely curious on what their proposed solution is if they have 10 candies in total and Alice has 3 candies more than Bob.
This feels like such a waste. Yeah, let's destroy electronics (when there is a silicone shortage) and let's destroy clothing (when a large percentage of the people in the world walk around in rags). Makes me unbearably…
Wait, Teslas now come with FrameShift Drives?
You can store insulin but not in large quantitites and it is a hugely delicate process to synthethise it in the first place. You can "biohack" it to a certain degree (it is how it was first discovered and manufactured…
I agree to the above in a painful way. I don't think of myself as a power user but I have at times to clean up the registry for stuff that uninstallers missed because the updated application does not want to install.…
This is worrying. I always thought about this since I have long-standing user experience with privacy-related stuffs and the more you block, the less you can use. But being unable to access financial services or city…
It has been known for a while that there is a link between leadership and severe mental health issues [1]. Unfortunately this is how a lot of organisations are being built and how they are fluorishing. And the higher…
