I imagine comparing benefits across companies is hard, but there are some weird, arbitrary things here that don't make sense. Example:

Looking at Salesforce, it's got three big red X's next to "Free Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner". Ok, so I guess Salesforce doesn't have these things (and notably, the red X makes it seem like Salesforce is being "dinged" for this). But then I look at Microsoft, and it has "Free Snacks" and "Free Drinks" listed with green check marks next to them. But then it doesn't list "Free Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner" at all. Does Microsoft offer free meals? If yes, why isn't it listed? If no, still why isn't it listed, but with a red X next to it, like Salesforce? This is the case for a lot of companies and benefits.

Other stuff seems wrong or very situational. Stuff like "On-site gym" is highly dependent on your office location, and I see companies that have a red X next to it when I know for a fact that many of their offices do have gyms, while I know that some of the companies that have it listed with a green check do not have gyms at all office locations.

Also, all of the health insurance stuff is pretty meaningless without more info about the actual insurance offered, and there's a lot of missing information about supplemental insurance, or other uncommon forms of insurance like legal group insurance.

edit: I see now that the way this works is based on user submissions, and you can choose "Null", "Benefit Available", and "Benefit Not Available". IMO, "Null" shouldn't be an option at all. Either a company offers some form of the benefit or it does not. There is no "blank".
> Why don't we want people to be good at things?

Because if A and B start out at the same place, and A succeeds, then B lacks an excuse to justify his non-success. So B needs to tear down A in order to feel better about himself.

I think it might just be a 90s thing. I remember similar promotions in Ireland when I was a kid, but they don't seem to be a thing anymore.
Its is if we make a law saying you can't do that. That's the point I am trying to make. If we can make laws, we can fix problems.
> Apple is turning into 90s-era Microsoft and System76 is turning into early 2000s Apple.

I would love to believe this, but it is very hard. Ill try out some system76 laptop in the future. However I think just alone the fact that I live in Europe will make it worse experience in terms of support, shipping times etc.
> I could have done that, but I didn't - because I'm not sufficiently full of shit.

It sounds like you're disparaging the art (and in fact the artists for producing it) because you think it's not sufficiently technically difficult. It also sounds like you believe the artists are trying to present it as more than it is. But tell me if I've misunderstood you.

This is a very antagonistic attitude. You're approaching art with an adversarial mindset that only recognizes it if it's something nontrivial. I don't think anyone is trying to bullshit you - art is just subjective.

For many people, what's more important than the competence is the originality. Not even necessarily the originality of the thing itself, but of the meta surrounding it. In that sense, plain white canvas in a museum is actually pretty original. It's certainly less derivative than a lot of the highly competent also-rans who painted the same scenes in the same (highly proficient) styles in the same time period. Moreover, it made you think. You didn't have a positive reaction to it, but then (as any artist would tell you) art doesn't restrict itself to positivity :)

Now with that in mind, let's circle back to your other statement:

> You're supposed to have some kind of ability and that ability shouldn't have to be defended by pointless platitudes.

It seems like they do have an ability, it's just not an ability you respect because your definition of art is more narrow than theirs. And that's okay! No one is forced to deeply appreciate all forms of art. But the way you're disparaging this kind of modern art is a perfect example of the middlebrow dismissal that's already been brought up in this thread.

People are not full of shit just because you don't appreciate the (highly subjective) things they do. The triviality of many modern art pieces is part of a broader context which your criticism completely fails to capture.

I don't think this is a correct analogy, as I like wood working and program for a living.

I would say it would be more of "what types of extensions or addons should I use", which in itself, is less than cut and dry, since a lot depends on what you want to build.

However for table saws, you'll want a sled and zero clearance plates (for different blades and angles) for sure. Should you make a tenon jig, among other things, will depend on what you hope to build.

Running 32-bit raspbian... Try that with a 64-bit OS, running 64-bit compiles/etc.

I have a huge heatsink on mine (40mm cube), and even without the overclock it will crank up to 80C doing long running compiles. Running it at 80C for an hour or two, the temp of everything on the board starts to approach 80C. Touching the usb ports at that point will give you a surprise.

So, I added a small 20mm fan, and set the profile to kick on at 60C, which generally keeps the soc thermals in the 60-70C range. No throttling, and still no noise because with that large of a heatsink it doesn't take much air to cool it.

Add in a couple hundred Mhz of overclocking and that fan stays on pretty much all the time.
LoL, well that's par for the course.
Though the hardware really is interesting, particularly the storage. Having more priority queues on the in-built flash storage, and having guaranteed flash storage to begin with, really do change the game.
For the first time in a long time, a console is actually offering something that is not really doable on the vast majority of PCs. It's something like gaming with 128GiB of RAM and four extra cores, and running vmtouch on the whole game directory before playing.

A lot of that breathtaking Unreal Engine 5 demo (the one that is so visually rich that you really have to watch it on Vimeo rather than YouTube to get the experience, because of excessive YouTube compression) hinges on the PS5's huge storage advantage.

This is based on the presumption that quality talent joins FAANG. From what I've seen so far, it's mostly people that can leetcode their socks off that make it into FAANG.

I beg to differ. I see at least two main arguments here:

Argument 1: Since these publishers are suing IA (premise), I find it justified for myself to boycott them (conclusion)

Argument 2: Well, you were not spending money there anyway (conclusion) if you were downloading your books from IA (premise).

Why did I feel that Argument 2 was unsubstantiated and ad hominem? I asked myself,
how did the person making Argument 2 know that the OP...

(a) ...has used IA National Emergency Library at all? may be they are just unhappy with these publishers bullying an NGO?

(b) ...has used IA NEM to download books from these particular publishers? may be they are buying everything Penguin publishes, but enjoyed using NEM for reading other books from other publishers?

Assuming things about the characters and actions of the person you are discussing with and making your argument about those rather than the topic of discussion, is a sign of a logical fallacy to me.

The users have a right to look at the source code if they wish.
Reminds me of this parable (paraphrased):

A man is standing on a beach after a storm with the tide out, where there are thousands of starfish baking in the sun, slowly dying. The man is picking up the starfish one at a time, and throwing them into the ocean.

A bystander is walking by, and says, "Why are you doing that? There are thousands of starfish and it won't make a difference."

The man picks up another starfish and says, "To this one it matters," and throws it into the ocean.
I can't try it due to the drastically reduced catalog.

> Maybe this piece of art had so much to teach me about perspective, context and expression that it was just too much to swallow for years.

I dunno. The aesthetics of contemporary art place no value on skill or craft. Minus the idea, anyone really could have created this piece. That's the point... or anything and everything is art, or quality doesn't matter so nothing is good or bad or better or worse, or art doesn't live in some sacred realm (we would be pissing on it in any other context), or "interesting!?" as a principal aesthetic... So sure, we can recognize (works of post modernism) both as art and culturally significant/important, but at the same time, they tend to be profoundly un-engaging. They are more fun to talk about than to experience in person which is deeply weird for the visual arts! They may as well be a post on /r/hmmm/ because "hmmm" is all they are really going for. "look at me, I'm a urinal, but I'm still art!". hmmm...

>Power tools are easier on the body, but also more dangerous, noisy and dusty.

This is a very important point.

For anyone interested in woodworking or just starting out, I'll expand on this a bit:

Some of the dangers are quite obvious: Spinning blades that are sharp enough to cut wood are sharp enough to cut you. SawStops are nice for protecting you from this at the table saw, but they don't make a bandsaw, router, etc. etc. etc.

Some are fairly obvious if you've got a solid physics background and are thinking about it, but might not occur to you: Kickback from the table saw, ejecting a piece of wood at you at high speeds. Similar concerns with a router. Lathes are great at turning pieces of wood into deadly projectiles.

Some are non-obvious: Lots of people take angle grinders and use them to power carve wood. This isn't super scary if you follow general safety practices and are using reasonable discs on your angle grinder, but there's also some out there that are basically miniature round chainsaws, and angle grinders can kick back in ways that aren't super intuitive if you're not experienced with them. Couple those together, and if the teeth of the chainsaw disc catch on you, the tool will basically ride along your body in the direction of the rotation. This has resulted in them climbing up people's chests, necks, etc.

And there's the long term stuff. Dust is huge. If you use power tools, you must invest in respiration and dust collection - the long term use of them without it will kill you.

In general, with hand tools, if you screw up and injure yourself, that's the end of it. You probably won't keep going and further injure yourself beyond whatever you did initially. This can still be scary - your chisels need to be sharp, and if you do something really dumb, this can still result in something fairly severe. But power tools (with exceptions like the SawStop) don't know if you got hurt. They don't care. They just keep going.
> Definitely r/homelab links and posts.

Definitely have a look though the relevant reddit subs and by and large the relavant ones are positive and helpful, eg /datahoarder /synology /homelab. It's good to scan them pre purchase too - for example it's been interesting watch the Western Digital drive issues play out over those subs

There are some off-the-shelf solutions that are expensive and well regarded (eg Synology DS918 DS1019) but expensive. There are a lot of pretty nice systems you'll be able to hack together too. Freenas is excellent in this regard, but it gets into personal favorites very fast.

There is actually an incredibly important distinction here that many politicians actually care a lot about; there are many people who are residents with full rights (and responsibilities) who are not citizens; it is important to be aware of these people when referring to the population as a whole. The term "citizen" does not include these people. The term constituents is commonly used, at least in the political sphere; it covers the broad range of people with legal rights within a jurisdiction.
> Assuming we have a non-corrupt police force it is a great tool for finding criminals with warrants

It's actually kind of terrible at that, because it's not perfectly accurate. Even if they could make it 99% accurate, the country has 300+ million people in it and for every person you told it to match, it'd give you three million false positives.

What it's used for is mass surveillance. You capture a face and there are millions of possible matches, but hey, one of the matches just bought something with a credit card 50 meters from there. Or they're carrying a cell phone billed to a person whose DMV photo matches that face. Then they put the cell phone down and travel on a vector from there past twelve more cameras.

You get everyone's location history and meatspace social graph in a database. That's way more useful to an oppressive regime than any kind of legitimate use, because you can get the same information from a suspect under investigation by conducting surveillance of only them, e.g. put a GPS on their car.

Retroactive surveillance can be used by future regimes to observe past behavior. Even if your existing government is trustworthy, there is an election every four years and turnkey fascism is inherently dangerous.

Meanwhile retroactivity not all that useful for legitimate purposes because criminals who are actively committing new crimes can be caught by non-retroactive surveillance specifically of them, whereas there is a much weaker state interest in interest in catching criminals who have already reformed and stopped committing new crimes.
