I think it depends entirely on what you want to do.

Do you want a smart watch or fitness watch? I think if you want a real smart watch you're better off with something else, like an Apple Watch.

If you're looking for fitness, I think the Forerunner series is a great starting point. What you'd want to do is look at what you _want_ to do and then go look at the specs for each watch.

For example, if you want to see maps on your watch and get turn-by-turn, that's not available on all watches, and you'll have to move way up the range to get it.

If you want to run, do strength training, monitor your heart rate all day, sleep score, HRV, etc. Those are usually available on all devices.

Their training readiness is another interesting option, that's only available on the higher end watches. Same with endurance score, and a few others.

I have an Instinct 2X because I really like the battery life (40 days just as a watch, I get around 30 or so with a workout every day). The 2X is a pretty big watch though, at 50mm. There are 2 and 2S models that are smaller though.

Usually the sizing goes S for small, just a number for the middle range size, and X for larger size.

With the Forerunner you get more features as you go up the number range. So 1xx, 2xx, and 9xx are the more common model ranges.

I think for most people the 255/265 are pretty good starting points and can often be had at pretty nice prices on sale. I think I paid $250 for my Instinct on a sale recently, might have been $350.

If the Enduro 3 was available at the time I might have gone with that.

Another option is looking at Coros, I think bang for buck, they're the better option usually. The Pace 3 is a stellar watch at that price range. My only complaint with Coros is they don't do ANT+ and that's a feature I kind of want/need since I have a number of devices greater than the typical bluetooth stream count (usually they max out at 2 bluetooth connections simultaneously). But if Garmin ditches MIP displays, I'm switching to Coros.

Edit: Also, based on Garmin's pricing for the Fenix 8 and Enduro 3, I'm really afraid to see the pricing for new models going forward. $800+ for a fitness watch is nuts. The other models are likely to come in under that, but, Enduro 3 went down in price (weirdly) but the Fenix 8 is up rather significantly over the Fenix 7 and Epix that it replaces.

> For me, GitHub PR review drives me crazy. It's good for exactly one round of exchange. After that nobody can tell what the heck is going on.

Matches my experience totally. It devolves into a heap of garbage. In comparison, with (incremental) mailing list-based review, it's not difficult to go up to v7 or so.

> But on non-subjective metrics it seems like LLVM PRs on GitHub are gathering noticeably less discussion than they used to enjoy as Phabricator diffs.

That could be a consequence of GitHub making it harder to comment sensibly.
I used it to do some sheet metal modeling, then sent the models off to a laser cutting/bending service that shipped me the pieces. Then I went back to Fusion to 3d print some brackets/scaffolding using the same sheet metal models as a reference, to assemble the pieces into the finished product. This was during a 3 month leave from work, starting from zero knowledge beforehand. It was probably the most fun I've had in years, and mostly thanks to how slick Fusion is and how many tutorials there are out there.

There are some export formats that it uses cloud machines for, which I think is silly and arbitrary. It's probably done that way to upsell their premium product for faster wait times or unlimited quota. For my uses I was able to select formats that didn't require the cloud.

Fusion is much more polished compared to FreeCAD and so I'm not sure if I'll ever end up making the switch. But I'm glad to see a free alternative, just in case.
What would the more pedestrian equivalent be for Michelin stars? If you want to treat your middle class family to celebrate your daughter getting a full ride scholarship, whose ratings would you go with?

Maybe we need to just opt out and make our own yardstick.
I will accept that as meeting the specified criteria (which is what seems to be necessary to be visible in bright, direct sunlight).

Will look forward to trying that when someone I know gets one, and look forward to the replacement for my Galaxy Note 10+ having a similar screen.

In fairness, just as any ban, it's obviously not really a ban.

It's more of a codification of the government retaining for themselves the exclusive right to take such actions.

I mean, that's just kind of the world we live in. As a general rule, over time, governments are not going to legislate themselves less power.

The Internet was intentionally commercialized and privatized as a third step in its development, from DARPA project, to education/research network, to what we have today.

Mainstreaming is a side effect of its broadening scope; as college students graduated and scholars took their work home with them, the NSFnet backbone was ceded to Sprintlink, and OS/hardware developers started working on consumer-grade interfaces.
Governments generally seem relatively happy to restrict the rights of average citizens to share other people's personal information yet large corporations are pretty much able to collect, store, share, and sell our information with near impunity.

Alternative take: don't reheat chicken in the microwave. A good toaster oven reheats (non-sauced) meats a lot better.
No one is asking for technology to be un-invented. We're asking for the societal consequences of technology to be addressed.

Technology can be disruptive, but "just deal with the disruption," is not a viable response. It breads resentment. It favors populism. It says, "sorry, but your problems are not worth fixing."

Books on the Finer Points of Tkinter
Over the past month I've had to write a bunch of GUI apps in tkinter and it was a lot of fun. Everything clicked, and I never felt like I was fighting the toolkit. Now I'd like to learn the finer points of the toolkit. Which rules do each layout (pack, place, grid) use, how events are propagated throughout widget tree, how bind tags actually work, and the difference between fill vs expand. Not a single tkinter book that I've seen covers the more advanced topics. I've found stack overflow to be a better resource, but not very holistic. I'm looking for a book that will reduce the amount of experimentation I'm going to have to do.

Contrast with gtk in C and Python which I used to do many years ago. I never found it fun like tkinter but the docs were pretty good. Great high level conceptual overview, not so great on widget details, and very little on design practices. Contrast with tkinter in which there are millions of ways for encapsulating widgets into classes.

As for QT, I've bounced off that every time I've tried to pick it up.

My point is, I really like tkinter and want to commit to it, with some help.

Companies always pay as little as the workers will accept. The workers always go for as much pay as they can get. This is the Law of Supply & Demand. There's nothing sinister about it, it's the way markets work.

Companies will not pay more than the value a worker creates minus the opportunity cost. Measuring this value makes for more accurate control of costs.

> workers can only guess how firms determine their wages

The companies can only guess what the workers determine their lowest acceptable pay is.

> information asymmetry

Googling what similar jobs pay is only a click away.

And why should the companies show their cards? Workers don't show their cards, either. That's not how markets work. When was the last time you said to employer: "I want $100,000, but the absolute minimum I'll accept is $80,000."? The company doesn't know if the candidate is going to be a top performer or a quiet quitter, but the candidate knows that.
I liked it on my Fujitsu Stylistic ST-4110 because it meant that I could view/use the device _anywhere_, which allowed usage as:

- a mapreader in the car/truck when traveling

- an ebookreader when traveling

- controlling a CNC on my back deck when cutting tropical hardwoods

- viewing reference materials for building sandcastles at the beach, or for writing/editing

It's also comparing prices on google cloud, which has its own markup, a lot more expensive than say runpod. Runpod is $1.64/hr for the A100 on secure cloud while the A100 on Google is $4.44/hr. A lot more expensive... yeah. So in that context a 30% price beat is actually a huge loss overall.

The discussion here is leading with the idea that there is collusion and monopolization of publishing marketplaces that, in practice, screw consumers and most authors.

I do not see anything that "question[s] whether authors and editors deserve to make a living for their work."

I am unsure whether you misread the thread we're in or are deliberately mischaracterizing what was said.

You might think that following policies they advocate will put authors in an even worse position. That would be a worthy point of discussion-- in good faith, instead of deliberately misreading and trolling.

How is it "wishful thinking" when they have said they are doing it?
Not an expert, just got nerd sniped by the wikipedia article. But from I read about the galls, the parasite (wasp, aphid, etc) that causes it can influence the structure/makeup of the gall through chemical/hormonal secretions. Usually the parasite wants nutrients so it "programs" the tree to grow the gall with a higher nutritional content.

As an aside, these are actually excellent questions to ask your favorite LLM. I had to read the entire wikipedia article to have a basic understanding which took me 5 minutes, but I asked chatgpt "do tree galls have more nutrition or otherwise differ from the other parts of a tree?" and "how does the organism causing the gall manipulate the tree's growth process?" and got really detailed correct-sounding responses.
If that's the case it's just a matter of time before the EU regulates away this anticonsumer choice by Google and the app developers.

Thanks for the good laugh :)

Seriously though, your CV is impressive. I hope you'll land well, and quickly. In my (very recent) job hunt experience, the job market is currently mortally ill; the more senior and experienced you are, the more the insane interviewing and HR practices, and the inexplicable rejections, will hurt your soul.

Tastes better but also has a better texture. For me it got to the point that I would rather have deli meat less than get more of some cheaper brand.
Oak galls have a much high tannic acid content than any other part of the tree, 4 or 5 times higher if memory serves. It is also much easier to get to the tannins than in the wood which has better uses like lumber and fuel.
The QE Theory of Everything
It's a really important point, because it clarifies what this change really means: developers are now being given the final say about how their application is installed (i.e. through what intermediary, if any) on the end user's device. In short: it's DRM in different clothes. Luckily, it appears the developers have to opt-in (at least for now).
Thank you very much! Seems very convenient. :)
some things are _meant_ to be read aloud because they were written that way one way or another. For the majority of history, it was the norm, either in consumption, authorship, or both.

Poetry is meant to be spoken, with rare exception. Written records of oral-first material, from the hobbit to the epistles (it's in the name!) to the just so stories (also in the name!) are all meant to be read aloud.

Some works, nearly all of which are 20th c. or later, are meant to be read silently, and are actively hard to read out loud.

It's clear you don't care about justice or you'd be looking for the people responsible and punishing them based on how much culpability they have, personally.

I was expecting them to say after introducing this, that they started with an intentionally bad example so they could improve on it. But instead they went on to talk about a 2.5x speedup on something that would already be 100x faster in any other database. I don't get why they're doing this at all.

No, it also supports connecting to remote sessions via several mechanisms (RDP, RDS (marked as 'to include' in Kasm, already supported by Guacamole), SSH, and VNC, handled by Apache Guacamole [1] as described in the documentation [2]). I use this to access desktop sessions running on Linux hosts, both 'bare metal' workstations as well as sessions running in Proxmox-managed containers. This uses Xrdp to serve X11 sessions from Linux hosts and direct RDP connections to Windows VMs, proxied through the Kasm server which presents these in a browser interface. Performance is good enough not to be bothered by the connection being remote.

If all you are after is getting access to desktop sessions through a browser it may be overkill to run Kasm, in that case you can also opt to run Guacamole directly on your desktop hosts. Another - more performant - option would be to run an X2Go server on the desktop host to which you connect using SSH from a machine running the X2Go client. This is less flexible since you need to have that client installed but performance is better. As stated performance through Kasm is good enough for my applications so I mostly use that nowadays even though I do have X2Go installed on all relevant hosts.

I can't decipher what is going on with the author or the article. Call me cynical but everything is a bot/spam/propoganda until proven wholesome and they can generate it much faster than I can read it so I hit the dump button before reading very far...Why this article intentionally misses the obvious reason baffles me. I searched on small beer (found, but no mention of why) and mulled wine (not found). Just assuming it is AI and moving on. If I have offended a living human being somewhere I apologize.

I was curious to see:

INSKEEP: OK, so now the bottom line. After doing all this reporting, did you conclude that one less hamburger a week really could save the Colorado River?

STONE: Honestly, Steve, it's really hard to say. The food system is so complicated, and it's not just beef. Actually, yogurt and cheese is what's driving more hay to be grown in the Colorado River basin. But it is true that if we shift our diets just a little, that can have a long-term impact.
I think they probably could but I am unsure of the implementation details.

Patching out the check might work for now, since they will be supporting older versions of the app for a while.

If they eventually decide that the server needs to verify the check, it might need to be spoofed rather than removed which can be more difficult (again, depending on implementation details).
The P2P is honestly a bit of a negative because the provision model looks very "default open" - which is not want anyone who wants to own the hosting experience wants.

Sure: you do have to include an identity document, but it didn't give me an overwhelming sense of safety that I couldn't accidentally expose all my private repos to the P2P network.
> It's dishonest

Being rude doesn't make your argument any better.

You know that workers are not perfectly interchangeable, everybody with any sense knows that. You also know that cost accounting isn't an exact science when it comes to the variability of people.

But if cost accountants were worthless, businesses wouldn't employ them.
For long term archiving, the fundamental hard problem is the storage density, The further the storage unit size drifts below human scale the harder it is to long term archive.

I think for the average person, the best thing to do, for long term archives is to take advantage of sturgeons law, "90 percent of everything is crap". triage the things you want to archive to a minimum, then print them out, at human scale, on paper. have physical copies of the photos you want to keep, listings of the code you are proud of, correspondence that is dear to you.

This will last, with no intervention, a very long time. Because as is increasingly becoming obvious, once the format drifts below human scale the best way to preserve data is to manage the data separate from the medium it is stored on with a constant effort to move it to a current medium. where it easily evaporates once vigilance drifts.
the AI image generation and 3D printing community had a similar kind of feel from 2021-2023, both are slowing down now though and becoming more mainstream everyday and needing less tinkering everyday. Which is great but disapointing at the same time.
Usability and security are diametrically opposed. The more a system is hardened the less usable for most users it becomes. The opposite is also true in that the more user friendly a system becomes the more it compromises around conventions of security.

Not initially, phone’s have been around long enough it’s easy to forget ubiquity took time. At the beginning you just said the name and location of the person you wanted to call.

Publishing names addresses and phone numbers was a useful feature after phone numbers existed but before everyone had a pocket supercomputer. Callers avoid needing to talk to an operator and addresses distinguished between different John Smith’s. So being included was just part of the service.

Sure some people with unusual requests were charged more, but it’s inherently a different situation from doxxing. If you pay a carpenter to build you a deck you can’t exactly sue them for trespassing while they’re doing what you asked for.

Unless you have solidworks through your job or school, FreeCAD on mac is the way to go.

Solidworks is great until you have to buy your own license. This costs MULTIPLE thousands of dollars. You cannot purchase a "hobby" version that actually gives you the desktop version. I used solidworks up until my company license got pulled. Additionally im not a student anymore so no luck there.

I used to use Fusion - but it was never as nice as solidworks. My student edition expired and now im out of that to.

Now I use FreeCAD on Mac. Takes time to adjust and I cannot model as quickly, but saving $$$$
