yes! I'm surprised how many people are ok with these. This is also the biggest problem with streaming, in addition to input latency.

And from the first quote, which I strongly agree with, it follows that when people leave the company after building something together, the organization is losing something invaluable. I am baffled that this is not understood and I have witnessed first hand how great teams that are able to work well together collapse and the company has to rebuild the knowledge, wasting time and money.

Great to hear that! I got myself the last Intel based mbp 16" fully jacked with R5600 HMB2 memory, as this is the last one that will run Windows, which I need often. I also need larger screen, so I'm waiting for M2 or M3 generation, that will inevitably come with 16" screen factor - looking forward to that amazing machine in a few years!

This aligns exactly with my experience. The body is very reluctant to turn into fat reserves, as they the best source of energy and must be conserved. As you said, exercise helps, and another trick to eat some carbs every three or so days to convince your body to start burning fat.

It's also completely against human nature, especially when it comes to raising kids. We have always lived in large groups and kids were nurtured by and brought up by many members of family, instead of just father and mother. It results in much healthier humans, who learned from all members of family, because who's to say that father and mother themselves only are best guardians? Not to mention the sheer amount of effort required to take care of a child, which was shared by much larger extended family or just tribe members. Today's nuclear family mostly brings mental issues and overburdens the parents in an unnatural way.

After going through a few of these, I'm coming to the same conclusions. Even though I enjoyed some of these, I hate the entire process, mostly for the time consuming aspect of it. You're going through a series of stages, each taking time and causing you to be on edge, and then waiting a couple of weeks for an answer that end it suddenly, just like that. I'm too old for this shit. I want to have an two way street conversation and technical discussion to determine if I can be a good fit for a position and maybe if interest is on both sides, continue on technical discussion on the merits of the job, rather than writing code in an online document.

Sadly, most big well know valley companies are doing the leetcode obstacle course, because there are many many applying for the highest salaries in the industry. I can't see it changing anytime soon.

No, he co-founded Embark studios with other DICE guys and is doing Rust.

The problem is this is a slippery slope. Where does it end? Today it's "master", tomorrow someone will be offended by something else. Do we need to accomodate every offended person? I don't think so. This is insanity.

We're witnessing mass insanity on levels never thought possible.

On a first glance, it does look like a simpler version of Rust, and I say it without demeaning Zig. Looks very promising, I'll be keeping an eye for it.

I only heard of him recently and just went through his presentation about Unums, available on his page. Great stuff, highly recommended.
