I love being able to watch sports for free with my antenna. I hope that doesn't end for a long time.

I have mixed feelings about it. I don't agree with how my country often ends up using these technologies, but defense tech and weaponry still seems pretty necessary. The US is not the only one doing this. Should they wait for their adversaries to have the upper hand? I don't think it's such a bad thing, as long as they can put the right people in charge. That's a whole other problem.

Yeah I don't really like Luckey, or what I've heard from him anyways. But in the run up to launch the Chromatic, it became pretty clear that this guy, for whatever reason, is really passionate about gameboy. I have been less impressed with the other emulator/fpga machines. the chromatic is solid though.

Wow, I got the same question, wonder if we interviewed with the same dude.

I have had an interview or two where I got a programming challenge, and I was able to solve it with intuition. I don't know exactly if I didn't explain my reasoning well enough, or if my code was just too messy even though the tests passed, but I didn't get the job.

Sometimes they want some insight into how you think, and they might not get it even if you solve it.

Don't they still need to win to get paid?

Yeah I switch between android and iPhone sometimes so there's always something I forget to transfer over. After a long enough time I can wipe it and have it as a backup phone.

what's weird about that though is they must have had some system to track candidates that would have been turned over to somebody.

Let's bring back MiniDisc next!

I read that they bought quite a few, but their DC build out is not very fast. Maybe they should just resell the hardware

They bought a lot of GPUs. They could still do these things on that hardware with someone else's model.

Yeah, every EMT I know was way underpaid for how crazy stressful it was. Especially considering how expensive the ride was

They also ship a lot of items.

hopefully someone makes a phone mount for the steam controller.

yeah, and no public option

Idk we have a lot of protectionism around vehicle sales in the US already. I don't think it'll be easy but it could happen.

I guess it depends on the company and the project. If you really think your work or your project isn't useful to the company, or it feels performative, maybe you should try to hop to another project or company.

I have a 9 pro and it was very slippery at first. I put it face down on a slanted table and it slid right off once.

Anyway, I took the case off after a while. It's not new anymore. Your mileage may vary, but despite dropping it a bunch, it hasn't shattered and the edge only shows some slight marks from falling.

Yeah, reading his biography was interesting. He had the problem of tech not quite being where he wanted it to be over and over. But eventually things really hit.

I think this is part of why capex is so high for the big players. Yes data centers are expensive to build but it's also about outbidding for the labor and materials needed to build those. They'd rather build compute they don't need and then lease it then let competitors have their own machines.

Oh yeah. I can't remember which LLM, but one helped me repair my dryer.

Their AI support bot is insultingly bad, I'd kind of prefer a contact email and an auto response. good grief.

I cancelled recently because they really started hassling me more about account sharing.

My friends, I do not share my NYT account. I have two computers at work, I have a number of personal devices. I don't know what number NYT thinks is normal for a person to have, but because I am over that number they were requiring me to login and enter in an OTP multiple times a day basically.

Anyway, it finally got to me. I'll get my news somewhere else I guess. I just don't think they take feedback seriously unless it comes with a cancellation.

I never check it, and still get these.

I cancelled last week and it was all on the web, pretty easy.

If you can hang, it pays great. I don't work there but I know some who do.

Yeah same. I guess I'll barista FIRE at some point and maybe have some little side projects here and there.

yeah, I guess you would need a lawyer willing to work on spec. This just seems like a winnable case but IANAL.

I haven't dealt with anything like this, so maybe this is naive, but wouldn't you also sue for legal fees as apart of the damages?

interested in knowing what book, if it was good.

I more meant that it could maybe see a significant difference in the road, and know to take caution, not to try to gauge the depth of a submerged roadway.
