PS:T is also available for iOS, Android and Switch. The controls have been adapted for the platforms and play great.

And ofcourse like others have pointed out the Steam Deck is amazing also older games.

The new Monkey Island is also available for atleast the Switch btw.
The outside shots were always very jarring for me. I grew up in upstate NY (not that far from Scranton), and have lived in CA. It was always just so obvious that the outside scenes were filmed in CA that it disrupted the experience for me.
I vaguely remember the concept of “languaging” from the works of Maturana & Varela, where two entities (minds) in this interaction would gradually converge to a similar structure.

Yes, one area where I am forced to tip significantly and very often is with my food delivery service. This is, of course, a matter of "pre-tipping": I must enter the tip amount when placing my order, not after receiving the service. So I consider any "pre-tip" to be a bribe, because I cannot know who is handling the service and I cannot know how the service will be performed.

I have seen many food delivery workers (they are all contractors, of course) who brag about stealing food from bad tippers. I am not a bad tipper, and delivery drivers steal the drink from my order all the time. In fact they did it more often when I just ordered one drink; now I often order two, and I find that it comes in a carrier and they leave it alone. Perhaps it's a huge bother for them to wrestle one lonesome moist cup, and they'd rather keep it for themselves.

If I do decide that the driver caused some big problem or outright stole from the order, I will pursue customer service to reduce the tip to $0. They don't always understand that, so I have to spell it out. And yes, I do increase the tip when I find that exceptional service has been rendered.
When you install Rectangle, it has an option to mimic Spectacle’s keyboard shortcuts (if I recall correctly) which I thought was a really thoughtful touch.

I think it's clearly better to have the email eventually sent than the case where a completely synchronous service is down resulting in no email being sent
If you decide to start a business somewhere with a VAT, then you have to factor that into your pricing model, or else you're going to have a bad time. If you can't make a profit anymore, then your profit margins were never big enough in the first place, and you shouldn't be running a business.

- Peek at desktop

- Quick hide-all-windows to copy something from your desktop to your clipboard, then bring everything back

- Alt-tab, especially when it comes to apps with multiple windows, and windows in different states, such as minimized

- A modern/fully-featured default web browser without a locked down extension ecosystem.
- A start menu for seeing all your applications

- A taskbar with application grouping

- File Explorer is much more full-featured than Finder

- Better settings, especially when it comes to relevant settings being in one place

- The concept of uninstalling an application vs just deleting the application

- In some cases, an actual function key row

That said, I've used Windows for almost 15 years now, and I think many of its choices are second nature to me. Many of my friends are masters of switching windows with Expose, which I absolutely despise. And I still use Windows for work, but use Mac in personal usage. I usually end up frustrated at things that work on Windows but don't on MacOS, but rarely vice versa.

It's not entitled to think your job is a 2 sided relationship with the employer. The employer isn't doing you a favor by granting you an opportunity, they are buying your time and attention.
I am 100% pro TRT but if a person starts in their 40s, I just highly doubt it will be a free lunch if you are on TRT for 40 years.

On the other hand, there is no way to know at the individual level all the healthy habits that would come with TRT. This discussion is always from the point as if everyone is optimally healthy when reality is the opposite. Even just getting bloodwork done so much more than you would without TRT is a huge factor. No one is taking TRT and then playing video games and eating pizza all day.

The real downside to me though is having to get a supply of testosterone for decades. We are just so irrational on this subject that who knows what will happen in 10 years. The proposed hoops to have to jump through that are being debated right now are completely insane. Having to see a doctor in person once a month would be utterly ridiculous.

I found the house we live in now on my own, toured it at an open house, and once I decided I was serious, I engaged an agency on the terms that I would get a 75 basis point rebate if I bought that specific house through them. They agreed, the agency and agent took their 225bps, I got 75bps (of my own money) back and the agent got a relatively easy sale under her belt.

It might not always be possible, but it was worth the trouble to try to set up. (Redfin also offers a similar structure in some markets if you don’t want to try to negotiate it on your own.)

AI is not necessary to make your population believe the Big Lie - in fact, by applying a consistent false narrative to an entire group, you get reinforcement effects by more impressionable members of the group towards those with a greater resistance.

This has been used, repeatedly, through history.

Now, where AI could be applied would be in having a tailored, sculpted false narrative for each and every subject, which could be used for mass sentiment manipulation - profile each target, determine the ideal narrative to achieve the desired emotional and behavioural outcome, implant, rinse and repeat.

Could be used for nefarious purposes, could be used for benign purposes - although it’s hard to see anything that involves the mass brainwashing of a population as benign. Perhaps it would be useful for deprogramming - undoing the effects of the currently prevalent methods where desirable, such as indoctrinated cult members, dictator worshippers, and religious zealots - but right there in my postulating you see scope creep, and that’s why it’s almost inevitable this will end up being applied for marketing and programming purposes.

> It persists across reboots, and remembers placements separately for the two monitor arrangements

You're lucky. I didn't even realise this is supposed to happen. Every day I start by moving everything to the correct screen and correct location. It's never remembered and each time windows move to a completely random spot. Things are even worse if I work from a different location for a bit. (Some windows are pseudo-minimised and I have to click the icon a few times to show them again)

It's not even random/occasional. I put slack on the right third of the right display every day. It's never there after sleep or cable reconnection.

Boo. Can’t someone like Adobe fund a historical archive like this. Photographs are not a replacement for the physical history of this vanished trade.
Agreed, strongly. Which is why the online edition has some “Cautionary words”:

> Pricing Money is a beginner’s guide: it says so in big letters on the front cover. I believe it to be an excellent beginner’s guide — presumably many authors believe their own books to be excellent — but, being a beginner’s guide, it will not immediately make you a world-renowned expert.

> It was written around the turn of the pedant’s millennium. In some parts it shows its age. It has been slightly freshened by the addition of green-boxed updates, but these have been written very concisely, more to point to developments than to explain them fully.

> Please do learn from and be informed by Pricing Money. But also be cautious: it is not enough to make you a world-renowned expert; it does not list the many details that are both dull and necessary; some things have changed since it was written; it cannot be your risk manager.
Easy, low hanging fruit approach: Clickbank

Slightly more involved 'business' approach: (something like, depending on your location) www.awin.com

More tailored, hands on 'land a super affiliate' approach: Go network at something like affiliateworldconferences.com/europe - talk to a bunch of affiliates/affiliate managers/networks and go from there.

Personal 2c: $2000 products are likely going to be harder to sell $60 products. If I have no proof this will sell (well), I may have to burn a lot of cash to test it. Is that going to be worth it for $40 per sale? Probably no? For $1000 per sale, maybe?

To attract more people to push it, could you either - make the course payable in instalments (ie $100 a month cancel at any point for the user) and then make the payout $100 (first month), OR work on a lead-gen approach where you take the risk (ie you know you can convert the $Xk sale) and pay $5 (or whatever) per lead to get someone into your sales funnel (much lower risk for the affiliate)?

As an experienced (===old) developer, I have learned that data long outlasts the programs that access it. The lifetime of data is measured in decades, but programs last for years. Most SQL-based RDBMS teams have figured out workable version migration paths allowing old data to run on newer servers. Because this kind of migration is a very common and economically valuable operation, the vendors make sure it works correctly.

Sometimes a project, especially a greenfield project, looks like it will benefit from more recently invented data storage and query tech than your grandmother's SQL. That's always possible. And as developers we hope for, and work for, continued progress. But consider what may happen when the project succeeds.

If you're still on the project, you'll wake up one day and realize your oldest data is 20 years old. What happens if your storage and query engines are also 20 years old, because they didn't succeed to the extent needed to pay for maintenance and upgrades? You'll be in the software equivalent of the century-old subway system where you have to make all your replacement parts yourself, or get gouged by vendors that can't spread their costs among many customers.

> ZFS is cow, so if it works for your load, cow doesn't seem to be the problem?

Btrfs' implementation of cow, of course.

They have no intention to make it work for database workload. When you ask why it's slow, they just ask you to disable cow ( which requires recreating the file -- something you would die to avoid with multi TB database)

My take is a little cynical, but I think, “I’ve never given my best” means that the poster takes some pride in what his potential best is, and it has the side effect of never challenging the idea of what your best is. Doing good work, and being good at the work are different.

In terms of philosophical perspective that seems to address intrinsic or extrinsic motivations for moral behavior, here being transformed into intrinsic or extrinsic motivations for excellence in professional work, not giving your best may be like simply avoiding difficult situations. That is, a king or general would have more opportunities and complex decisions where they even have an opportunity to be moral, compared to a peasant who has fewer opportunities to be immoral or even make decisions.

All that said, professional work isn’t actually equivalent to moral behavior, and the poster pretty clearly explained that the many other aspects to his life are a much greater priority.

i use a linux machine all day (kde neon). like 15 hours a day. i use "maximize" on any program i work with. not fullscreen but maximize so i have access to the taskbar in the bottom without having to go out of full screen. i "sometimes" do snapped windows or quarters but i find it too much information overload and the programs i work with often just dont like in half the screen. anyway, the problem is,

i have tried mac os but they either want you to randomly place windows here and there but that feels "weird".

fullscreen has trouble going in and out and randomly placing windows feels cheating with the work you are doing. mac os doesn;t have the middle ground

As a country .. no.

Of course the vast bulk of Australia's population lives within a stones throw of the major capital cities; scoop up Melbourne, Sydney, the Gold Coast, Adelaide, Perth and Hobart and there's effectively everyone.

Western Australia, the state I live in, is approx 3x the size of Texas (a tiny state in my eyes) with a pop. of ~ 2 million - most of whom live in the vicinity of Perth ... leaving the rest of the state to a few hundred thousand.

Jack Davis [1] called Australians (of European descent) "fringe dwellers" as they largely cling to the edges of the country, and as a fine back handed slur for their labeling of himself and his people the same [2].

Leaving aside the traversing of vast spaces [3] [4] which many eschew [5], the cities largely have decent public transport, better than the US on average, not as good as the better served parts of western Europe.

As for the legal prescription of mushrooms espoused here?

They are taking a lower pay presumably because integration with a local company is important to them. Your exit interview reflects that..

You are showing them that they aren't getting that if they occasionally go to the all hands and realize they have no idea what's going, aren't really able to participate in the larger context and don't really see a way that will improve.

They could continue to look for another local employer that does better at integrating them or they could stop considering integration with any local employer and get an immediate pay rise.

I'm curious where you would put the top pay of say a senior front end or back end engineer in Germany. I would say the Swiss market has a funny soft limit about 130CHF that's similar to the US around 160USD, where HRs level of fidgety in negotiations escalates fast.

Most Germans I know who have gone back and forth between Switzerland and Germany were very unhappy with German compensation but not happy with their integration in Switzerland.
I think you're wrong, happy to be corrected though. As far as I can tell, if you change a subselect column into JSON, it's much more expensive in CPU and marginally more expensive in network bandwidth.

1. The data has to be serialised into JSON on the DB server, which costs CPU.

2. It then has to be deserialised on the application server (unless your backend is written in javascript and then your throughput problem is that you're using javascript instead of a better, compiled language)

3. The network bandwidth is actually larger as you've got all those extra {} in your result set, compared to the raw data in column format

It might "look" bigger to a human as there's more columns, but the data is exactly the same. So by definition, youre doing extra CPU work of serialising/deserliazing JSON and adding all the object markers of extra characters like {} and "" and : means the payload is bigger too.
Their is quite a political bent to it. In essence, anything against their ideology will get censored and get users banned. Any anti China or anti Russian state sentiment is enough and is categorised as racism/orientalism. See the below posts for further explanation and examples.
