I feel that the smartphone connectivity feature is a departure from the philosophy of the F-91W. Is having a smartphone for "Easy watch setting" not a flaw of the watch, rather than a feature? I'd love if it was radio…
I used BareMetal and Pure64 as a source of inspiration and knowledge while writing an OS as a student. It is simple and well written. I miss the days of reading AMD64 manuals and directly interacting with my hardware…
Interesting. Personally, I find IRC incredible frustrating exactly because I can't easily see the history and continue conversations. I usually connect to IRC channels through a browser client or a desktop app, but all…
I use Nextcloud hosted on Hetzner. It is pretty cheap and supports almost all systems I can think of. It feels a bit sluggish at times (slow sync, apps can be buggy), but I'm pretty happy with it. Oh and the mobile app…
I have been writing a journal for about 6 years now. I usually write 3 entries a week spanning from a few sentences to hundreds of words. Personally, I feel there are many benefits to it, mainly: 1. It gives me time to…
I am incredibly annoyed by slow websites. I noticed that I have started using my browser in a very asynchronous way where I open multiple tabs, do a single action, and move to the next one. When I get to my last tab,…
If this really lets me block certain websites for good, then I'm sold. I absolutely hate those sites that scrape other well-known sites (like StackOverflow, Quora, Reddit) and add ads and SEO spam. They are increasingly…
I completely agree, typing on 3310 was much more fun. I absolutely hate typing more than 3 words on my iPhone. Not only are the keys too small for my large-ish fingers, but regularly typing in 3-4 languages completely…
Location: Copenhagen, Denmark Remote: Some days of the week Willing to relocate: No Technologies: Python, C/C++, C#, SQL, Django, Docker, Git, Linux, ML (Keras + TensorFlow) Résumé/CV:…
I drew a beautiful sea turtle; I was sure it was going to guess it! But no, it couldn't. Then I checked the training set, and it was full of tortoises... I guess they should check their training set :P
That makes perfect sense. Thanks for the excellent explanation, Nition!
I was really entertained by a little note in the manual for the watch: "NOTE: THERE IS NO WAY unit components can be damaged or malfunction due to misoperation of buttons. If confusing information appears on the display…
I hesitate to write that I am depressed after reading so many tragic and heartbreaking comments... My everyday life just seems so good in comparison. I've recently graduated from a university and I have my first…
Not being able to select your own hardware for a job is perhaps one of my worst experiences to date. At one company, I was handed laptop with an older version of Windows, preinstalled bloatware, 3rd party encryption…
I think this is spot on, at least for me personally. I am not very good at mathematics, so I never questioned my professors when they said that "You cannot treat infinites as regular numbers". Perhaps due to that…
I used to have an ASUS EEE PC from about 2010 (I think it was 1215P). It was an incredible machine -- it was cheap for a student, fairly powerful for internet browsing, text editing, and a bit of coding. The battery…
I can also highly recommend the PyBoy[0] project for Game Boy emulation. It is written in Python, has an accompanying report for documentation, and is still being developed. It provides an interesting basis for student…
His pedantic personality is unbearable to me. He held a talk at my university recently. During the QA, every time a student asked RMS a question, he would spend 2 minutes correcting the formulation of the question, and…
It has always amazed me that North Korea is able to create an OS like Red Star. I assume it takes a lot of knowledge and skill to stitch together such an OS, with fairly "unique" spying features not really seen in other…
I de-Googled my Android 3 months ago, and the article reads as if I wrote it. I can totally relate to everything! Without the Play store, I had to take long hard look at what apps are really essential to me, for which I…
I have been on the tipping edge of switching from FF to another browser for a long time now. Short-lived bugs such as this one do not annoy me as much as the terrible performance of FF. It is not rare that FF uses 2…
As someone who is soon to graduate in CS from an university, these seemingly reoccurring stories of terrible interviews really scare me. Is it normal for the interviewing process to take up all the candidates day? Is it…
I am somewhat surprised how important fast typing seems to be for computer users, mainly developers. It is never the typing that is my personal bottleneck. As a developer, I spend perhaps 99% of my time thinking of the…
Even though it is a 'minor' feature, I find the !bangs feature incredibly useful and time-saving. They even make searching on Google faster!
I understand that the article is about how many developers are inclined to use wrong "hammers" for certain tasks. However, it also makes me think about how we actually code. At my university, we learn to sort files,…
