Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.
Managers that do that are objectively shit managers. Sure, if your employee whines about every little thing expecting you to fix it all the time, turning it around on them is appropriate to foster some level of…
Fundamentally what they've deployed here is something a lot of organisations struggle with or don't even recognize as worth having - A reliable edge which you can trust sufficiently to form the functional core of a…
Since Ashley Madison caters to people wanting to cheat, it would self select for people with taboo-, thrill-, or risk-seeking tendencies. So not sure (and sure hope) this could be extrapolated to the population as a…
No, but when I saw where Meta's effort had got them it struck me they might have been better putting that development work towards modernizing an implementation of SL.
That’s a great reference, thank you for the laugh.
Earlier this year I packed up a lot of my computer gear and stored in at the in-laws house, because we were putting our house on the market and this got us ahead on moving into a new place. Then the housing market…
cocks gun I said Get. In.
Yes, that is GPT output.
I've worked on both sides of this divide, and most of it makes sense by just considering Chesterton's fence.
Mustard was around from the early Romans/Gauls I think, if that counts.
Perhaps. But what are the long-term ramifications of continuing down this track? Does a society of individuals with low cohesion survive in the long run? What motivations to pull together and overcome any adversity that…
Perhaps more like... 'engagement fatigue'? When it's truly rote or mindless work your brain can disengage and be somewhere else. With knowledge work you don't have that luxury, even when the work itself isn't what we…
>As soon as you possibly can, start working on something you 100% agree with. Man, that point resonates with me. I quit a while back due to severe burnout (actually, I think now, boreout) and have been struggling to get…
Perhaps it crashed outside of the environment.
Does any of what you just said not also apply to Carlsen?
I'm with Carlsen on this. If you're caught or admit to cheating even once in a professional competitive career that's it - You should be out for good. That we have this bizarre attitude of permissiveness and time…
If it's of interest to you there's now also a magnet link up over on quake3world. Comes to about 50Gb.
I don't have a personal platform for this, but am uploading missing content to existing ones I know of: lvlworld.com - Curated, the polished and more playable end of the spectrum en.ws.q3df.org (Worldspawn Archive) -…
For sure, I have hundreds of custom models and skins stashed away. I remember going to the millenium dome around y2k, and there was a booth there that would 3d scan you into a Quake 3 model! Sadly I lost my scan. Wonder…
I have a passion for a very small niche within this - Preserving user-created levels for the game Quake III Arena. When I was a kid we got our first PC just as Quake (1) released. We didn't have a modem to get online,…
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/togsaid Perhaps the Gaelic word for barrel somehow came from the English measurement hogshead, but more likely that it was spoken Gaelic for barrel overheard and adopted by English…
From the Gaelic word for Barrel 'tocsaid'.
That is a very fair point and rebuttal, thank you.
Sure, although this does feel like it's becoming painfully drawn out. Let's use a simple parallel example: If someone's having a laugh at, say, Trump. Then they use that as an example of how those those silly Canadians…
