> We aren't all doomed and, please, kindly, stop wasting my valuable and limited time and energy on listening to your crap about how we are all doomed, as if the world has never had serious problems before. Either roll…
At the moment I am constantly surprised by how hard to read the maps are. I very often cannot see the roads because they are white no a white background (on my phone).
That's definitely far-fetched. If anything, The Matrix is almost a word-for-word remake of Neuromancer by William Gibson (which is an amazing book). Plus a bit of Ghost In The Shell, perhaps.
Wait, Switch was a man in the real world and a woman in the matrix? That's awesome. From the Matrix wiki: > In the original script of the Matrix film, Switch changed genders upon entering the Matrix, which coined their…
You could be interested in retiring early (or immediately), or you could be interested in buying property overseas and spending your winters in Spain. Also "minimize risk" is not consistent with "maximize return" so…
Also this Brother printer has been rock solid: https://www.brother-usa.com/products/hll2360dw
You believe that 3 million 'petition signatures' is even remotely equivalent to 2 million actual protesters marching the street?
During hiring, it makes lots of sense. A Kansas candidate could certainly accept a lower-paying job than an SF one. It makes less sense when you move while already employed, since the cost of re-hiring would greatly…
When I read that section about rems and ems and ch and px it made me think of Python's "There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it." CSS and front-end browser work drives me up the wall.
General fitness. I've exercised most of my life, and I am constantly helping people start out. I am not a professional athlete, but I have a vast general knowledge of anatomy, physiology, training plans, etc. It makes…
Deleting Twitter was easy for me because the platform is so antagonistic on mobile if you don't use their app. I don't even click on links people send me anymore.
Part of me loves architecture and seeing these amazing homes. Sadly, a bigger part of me cannot afford a 1 bedroom condo. In my old age, my lower middle class 'lot in life' prevents me from really enjoying luxurious…
On our (very small) team, our manager jokes about it constantly. Every day. It's a running joke. But we all get along and know he's 100 % joking and he is very protective of his team. So in our case I think it's fine.…
Years of being extremely difficult to run on a Mac (no pip install), horrible website update (the old one was bad, but at least it was cool & functional), and on-going issues like this:…
Does Python have any good game engines? PyGame project is a nightmare. Lua's https://love2d.org/ is amazing.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doxing The act of sharing it and aggregating it is the issue. The information doesn't need to be private.
Didn't they mandate learning Mandarin in schools, and remove English as the second language (some time ago?) Here is another example: Mandatory Mandarin proficiency exams at university:…
Bizarre writing, too. I can't stand when writers enjoy their owner "clever" writing more than the storyline.
They certainly aren't given Joe Rogan very much credit, that's for sure.
I was attacked by a huge owl recently. It drew blood, and really hurt. I can confirm it was entirely silent, in contrast to being attacked by a crow, which makes an almost-avoidable swooshing sound.
Coincidentally, I was thinking of Kia as a great counter example. Admittedly I don't know much, but haven't they started offering much nicer cars over time, as the brand as grown?
Well, as a user, wouldn't it be nice if I could access 100 % of my battery for situations where I need as much life as possible? 20 % is fairly significant. It also cuts down on battery longevity, but plenty of people…
Python also doesn't support yaml in the standard library, interestingly.
I find the state of the environment so shockingly depressing, it's incredible. What would I give to see the world like that?
I think a nicer interpretation is: "I'm sorry about my bright lights, but I don't accidentally have my high beams on, thank you."
