There are matches here in the UK that aren't televised nationally on Saturdays due to rights, but are shown live in other countries. It's a bit of a silly situation when you can't watch a match legally that's 5 miles away but if you're 5000 then that's cool. I understand why, but this only drives people to piracy.
hiring sepme with systems sense is something I wish a lot more companies could & would perioidcally try, emergency or no. software devs are awash in their own experiences & there should be such a huge market for outside visitors to come re-assess, review, suggest or dabble in some re-orientation.

this article is such an amqzing unspoken revelatory tale, that applies to so many kinds of software engineering environments.
I am not really sure of what it is you call honor though. To me it is a word whose meaning I don't really understand whose main purpose seems to justify leaders in sending people to their death at war and by men to justify murdering women/other men. It is at best anachronic, at worst dangerous.
(Of course I am not accusing you of promoting murder but that's a word that has a sad history and I hope we get rid of it in the context of our daily lives )

Chromebooks were already that fast at the time he made the prediction, mostly because they were designed to use coreboot instead of the usual bloated uefi/bios.

The only reason wee don't see coreboot everywhere is that motherboard manufacturers refuse to adopt or even allow it.

> Still uses a traditional controller or at best some Kinect like interface. Which would have the problem of needing a expensive treadmill like device to prevent you from bumping into walls.

It is a shame how many games developers don't want to let people use the analogue stick to move in VR. It's uncomfortable for some people for a bit, but for the majority it's fine and lets you do all the normal in-game things. HL: Alyx is the most recent example where Valve originally didn't offer the option for simply walking and turning smoothly in VR. I get that you want your game to be accessible to the greatest number of people, but you're limiting your design space this way and leaving aside a part of the market.
> It was an air bearing in a reduced (but still fairly high) pressure tube.

You are a funny guy :) According to the source [0], the pressure was intended to be 100 Pa ("about 1/6 the pressure of the atmosphere of Mars").

Technically speaking, this is a fairly good medium vacuum [1].

The term "vacuum" itself refers to "a space from which most of the air or gas has been removed" [2], so you don't have to go into the intergalactic void to achieve it. I think ~99.9% qualifies as "most" :D

I feel you. Gradle is the reason why I stopped updating my opensource android projects and killed them. I once got updates to translation files, wanted to update gradlew as it was ~2 years old. Failed with updates for +16 hours spent on it. Multiple gradle functions replaced or removed, dozen of incompatible changes, broken syntax, incompatible gradle plugins I used for C compilation... I simply gave up, archived the repo, stopped accepting translations and moved away from Android. Simply too much effort was wasted trying to keep dependencies up to date every year or so.

Just look at some of these breaking changes reported for 7.0:

[#16652] - Trouble using centralized dependency versions in buildSrc plugins and buildscript classpath
[#16620] - FileNotFoundException in TestKit tests: lib-android/build/20210320_1519030999411730848.compiler.options
[#16541] - Impossible to run modular program with 7.0-milestone-2. Working with 6.8
[#16532] - Build failure when including a plugin build in settings & applying a settings plugin
[#16163] - Using included builds for local settings plugins don't seem to work
[#16028] - Change in behaviour when resolving custom project dependencies

I without going into details, two of these would affect the project I talked above... These breaking changes should be enough to block release of 7.0 before 100s of developers are hit by these time-wasting issues.
Yeah, ChromeOS downloads and applies updates unobtrusively and raises a notification to reboot, which takes a few seconds. macOS takes half an hour to update even if you have an M1 and their fancy SSD. Android takes about the same time and their handsets will get scalding hot during the process.

ChromeOS is also the fastest of the non-mobile operating systems to wake from sleep. It is up and running and on wifi before I can raise the lid to its normal position.

I used to work at a VR arcade. I saw thousands of people try VR for their first time. With games and experiences we considered "comfortable", I saw someone develop motion sickness exactly twice.

VR sickness comes from these sources:

* "Fake VR" 3DOF devices that approximate the experience but without positional tracking, e.g. Cardboard, Samsung Gear, Oculus Go, etc. Fortunately those seem to have dropped off the market.

* Low and/or inconsistent framerates due to insufficiently performant applications or weak hardware.

* Artificial forms of locomotion with sustained, smooth motion of the point of view. The faster the motion, the worse, with racing games being the worst and simply intolerable for about 30% of people.

By avoiding #1 and #2, and limiting to #3 to customers used to VR or willing to risk motion sickness, we were very successful at making it a non-issue. So I believe that it's a matter of quality control and user education, not an inherent problem with VR as a platform.
Less than 50%. His predictions would have been more accurate if he had flipped a coin.
(1) The worst reason to start a business is because somebody you don't know (e.g. Bill Gates) was successful at it.

(2) Personally knowing somebody who succeeded at a business (e.g. my uncle raised chickens) can be a good reason.

(3) The institutional way to learn "business sense" is to get an MBA. You could self-study out of the curriculum on your own (e.g. books, videos) but if you really go they will stuff you into a suit and get you behaving like an MBA... Thus you'll get a little more deference than you deserve for your first job.
Raising prices isn't really a "secret knob".
You haven't mentioned what headset you're using. This has become less of an issue with headsets like quest 2.
This reminds me of a recent story I read where a North Korean defector struggled with homosexuality because the concept simply doesn’t exist in that country. He just thought he was broken because he had zero attraction to his wife. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-56323825
I don’t have broad statistical evidence on this at this moment, but this has been an issue well before COVID. I was able to find a past article highlighting data about crime following homeless accommodations in a particular neighborhood in Seattle (https://www.q13fox.com/news/crime-rate-rose-103-in-a-two-cit...). Business associations in Seattle have also published reports with data about these issues for several years as well, and numerous articles have been written about it (example https://www.seattlebusinessmag.com/tourismhospitality/downto...). You might be able to dig up more and find the actual reports with some dedicated Googling.

But regardless, truth starts with observations and anecdotes. In Seattle, reliable data measuring crime is hard to come by since people have become jaded and simply don’t report crime any longer. The police are understaffed (well below median police officers per capita in the country) and are directed by city leadership to deprioritize such investigations, so residents don’t see a benefit from reporting. I’ll admit I am part of the problem - the other day I saw a homeless person expose herself in front of children and I didn’t bother reporting it to any authority because nothing will be done and I am just exhausted by all of it. The only time residents bother is if they are victims of property crime that is large enough to make the insurance deductible worth it.

In the case of police shooting unarmed blacks, we already have the data. The Washington Post has maintained these records (https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/investigations/polic...). It gives us a clear sense of the magnitude of the issue at hand. This is also why surveys are able to say that people overestimate the frequency of police brutality.

> I also invite you to consider people who commit crimes as human beings with needs like you and I — needs that are often unmet

They are free to meet those needs the way anyone else does, by showing personal responsibility for their life choices. I have little sympathy for those who decide to live a drug centric lifestyle. And likewise, people shouldn’t move to a desirable, expensive location unless they have a plan on how to make it work. Existing residents should not have to subsidize either group, with their money or by giving up their quality of life.

On the flip side, this will likely expose a lot more arrest data, and complicate the "innocent until proven guilty" thing that's mostly not true.

I am shocked at how many of his predictions came true. This guy needs to start a hedge fund.
The market routes around it, not the Internet. There is no money in privacy. Very few will pay for it (or even understand it enough to make a conscious choice), and there's a lot of money to be made in amassing data on users.
This is some ageist nonsense. I feel this way because doing something illegal is different than a walk in the park with a friend.
Most appropriately: ¿Porque no los dos?

I read the selfish gene back in 2006-7 ish, and I think that both the modern conception of meme and the original presentation of the idea fit rather nicely together and aren't contradictory. The more technical definition is broader, but non-exclusionary to the common usage. I think most people understand that the idea of meme goes beyond image macros: abusively quoting a moving to the point its devoid of meaning ('your father was a hamster and your mother smelled of elderberries'); cats (looking at you ancient Egypt); fart jokes (medieval art).

Memes that people call memes are memes. And some people recognize things more broadly and also call those memes. The definitions are nested and non-exclusionary, which is rather convenient.
tl;dr: The problem of providing updates across different Linux distros, independent of package maintainers (and on Windows too).
Also, as a bonus, "a plethora of new servers are available to play OpenTTD online" (I'm not clear on if this is directly related to Steam: are Valve providing these servers, or is it just a side effect of increased popularity and more users choosing to host servers?)

I once met with Iridium [1] engineers not long after the collision of one of their satellites with a Russian weather satellite [2] in 2009. The meeting was for another purpose entirely, but since the collision was fresh news, it naturally came up in conversation. The Iridium folk told me that they would receive warnings from NORAD of imminent collisions, defined as two satellites coming with 500m. They were receiving warnings to the tune of 10 or 12 a day, so many that they basically started ignoring them.

Not true in the Apple ecosystem. The Apple Silicon chips in recent iPhones can trounce desktop chips from a few years ago, and the next-gen iPhone should rival a high-spec desktop from today.
The honey in the grocery store has nothing on real honey either. It just tastes like corn syrup to me. There's a store here that sells honey from local bee keepers and it blew my mind the first time I had it after using Sue Bee all my life. Now a friend of mine has a hive. Her first harvest this spring is the best honey I've ever tasted. Here's hoping next year's is just as good.

She ended up getting a number of small jars of exotic honey from some famous name in the bee world. There was honey from bees that gathered from peppercorn flowers, mustard flowers, those wild African hives that you have to gather from inside trees, honey from the side of a cliff. Just crazy things like that. We had a little tasting party, it was a blast. But her honey was better than any of those. And she left me some bits of honeycomb in there because I like to chew on it. I'm so spoiled for honey.

Grocery store honey is like drinking bud lite when you want a nice wheat beer.

Sure no problem. In that case, if your goal is only about $1,000 a month, I would suggest just going after WordPress / web design / low-level type stuff. Especially if you are comfortable with doing support roles. There are a lot of remote support jobs for small companies that pay modestly but are open to pretty much anyone. Depending on the company, they are a good on-ramp to being technical.
You’re right, the personal tokens like one the from Alex are simply an IOU based on trust and reputation. Reputation systems are really interesting and can work for some things, but I’m not sure you could sell the equivalents of Bowie bonds on trust alone - and the whole point of smart contracts is that they’re supposed to be trustless.

So I think investing in future gains of a real world entity who can simply start over under a new guise or decide not to pay, without being able to enforce the contract isn’t going to work. But I’m not sure connecting current legal entities/contracts to onchain versions will be the answer either in many cases.

Grocery store honey crystallizes too. What I've found is that people who grew up on cheap honey just don't know what they're missing. Once they try the good stuff, they're ruined for the national brands.
I am not sure. In the past year I have actually started to see quite a few non techie friends buy the oculus quest and are avid users.

I do feel like we are at a turning point where VR will become the dominant non mobile gaming device of the future. If it will be used much outside of gaming is the big question.
I think we need to be a spacefaring species to be able to fully utilize nuclear energy, and to be a spacefaring species, highly automated orbital manufacturing has to be established. Doing nuclear on the planet Earth at all is perhaps too akin to doing it in the middle of Manhattan island.

It's not clear how comparable the numbers are. The study from OP [2] reports sleep as measured by actigraphy (5.5h), time in bed (8h) and self-reported sleep (7.2h). What the meta-analyses most likely have studied (I haven't checked) is self-reported sleep.

Get an air fryer and make fries in it out of cheap potatoes. I like dicing them into pretty small squares, but do whatever you want. Do not use oil at all.

As others have said make up batches of rice. Get a rice cooker if needed; Zojirushi makes good ones.

Canned beans are cheap. Heat those up in a pot on your stove with a bunch of spices, then put those and the rice into a corn tortilla or a flour one if you want, and you have a tasty burrito. You can also get canned refried beans, which are delicious, but make sure you get the ones without oil or lard. You have to look at the ingredients.
