At 85°C, you can store around 10kWh of solar in your water heater. At PG&E power prices, that's worth about $5/day. This is a lot cheaper then batteries, though admittedly less flexible.

> Windows did not even ship with a sockets layer (winsock) until 1994, with Windows NT 3.5, and it made its way to consumers with Windows 95.

A lot of people used third party Winsock implementations, e.g. Trumpet Winsock, under Windows 3.1. As a 1990s teenager I remember seeing it a lot. Even into the second half of the 1990s, because it wasn’t like all Windows 3.1 machines were upgraded as soon as Windows 95 came out.

How to treat your programming job like a video game
I was pondering how to make software engineering feel more fun.
You also don't have to choose any of those random NPM libraries, React can stand on its own. Adopting a new technology without any of those libraries just means having to roll your own, but that was always an option.
Yes all(?) modern solutions should let you transfer disks to a 1541, and it’s always fun to treat yourself to using real media. I believe the kff supports the ef3 usb transfer protocol, but you might want to double check before you buy.

That said, the U2+ really lives up to the name and really is the most featureful device - everying else is a compromise.
Sure, but now you're just circularly defining it back to what was initially pointed out: this is implicitly a very specific definition of greatness, ergo yeah, you replace the word with "successful" and it's implicitly a very specific definition of successful.

I have experience working as a founding engineer/ early developer for a startup and building up their SaaS web app which is now used worldwide.

I also have experience working for the Canadian Government and one of the largest bank in the world where I am a L3 engineer in charge of fixing production bugs, developing advanced automations and scripts.

I’m available anytime in the US for any opportunity in software development.
I don't think you understand what foliohd does. They're not squatting on hundreds of domains in advance. This is how it works, based on 1 minute glance of their site:

- you create portfolio, but it's by default served as a subdomain

- then you decide that you really want to use "mchichol.com". You register through them instead of buying it yourself.

That's it. It's customer's domain, not theirs. They also specify that domain is yours if you ever want to move your site elsewhere.

MUDs are how I began programming, about 30 years ago at the age of 16. Now I'm a senior engineer making mobile games. Unsurprisingly I focus on the backend.

MUDs taught me C, devops, multiplayer/sockets, security to some extent, databases (I wrote my own MUD that used MySQL). Also HTML/webpages eventually. MUDs taught me the full stack.
My issue with the Cloudflare registrar is that if you are using Cloudflare for DNS too, you’ve basically given them control over your domain. Yes, they don’t need the DNS part to redirect your domain to a different address, but you’re putting more eggs in the same basket. If you also use their hosting (pages or workers), you’ve given them full control over the entire project. I prefer to use the latter options, without using their registrar, just in case there is a problem or misunderstanding with a site, I still have the authority over DNS in a different provider and can switch quickly.

Most big open-source projects are a thing because a companies invest in it. When we rely on people doing it in their free time what we see is unmaintained software.

The entire idea that open source is volunteer work is largely a myth when it comes to popular open source. Even the ones where you think it's volunteer work they do so much during their working hours that either they're lying to their employer or it's sponsored by their employer.

Yep, don't give a shit about making a statement, just finally gave them a try and realized I'd been wasting my time with half-broken computers my whole life until then, rather than the 75% broken computers I could have been using.

If someone eventually makes a non-broken computer that's in no way cool, I'll switch to that.

[EDIT] Though nb a mostly-just-works ecosystem of devices and integrations is basically table stakes for a competitor now. Just a better computer is almost useless to me, it needs to take just a couple clicks or taps (if any at all) to have it integrated with the rest of my shit. That's where the time savings and utility comes in, and fiddling-with-electronic-crap becomes computers actually doing things useful for me in my life, making paying any money at all for the damn things worth it.

> Fortunately, at least in my part of the US, "what do you do for a living" is a question that is rarely casually asked.

This is so interesting. I wonder if there really is a strong geographical component to this? That mirrors my own experiences primarily living in smaller towns, with stints elsewhere.

Anecdotally, a female relative of mine was getting really frustrated with the straight dating scene in the SF metro area, which according to her was full of men whose primary dating persona is their wealth and status.

She kept going on date after date with people she found utterly boring, who were primarily concerned about showing off how successful they were and not really interested in her or forming a connection over mutual interests. It's like they were looking for a trophy wife.

Having primarily lived in small towns where "what do you do" just isn't as big a deal, I found that rather off-putting and asked why she was going out with those men to begin with. We looked at her own dating profile, but it also kinda mirrored theirs: started out by mentioning that she worked at some household name tech company (not a FAANG but close to it), her educational background, etc. I made the comment that it looked like a resume rather than a dating profile. Suggested that maybe toning down the status signaling would let her find more "normal" people. She was probably intimidating.

She ended up revamping it and trying to meet people based on identified shared interests rather than levels of accomplishment. Went on a few better dates, soon met a climber she really liked, and they got married not long after. Turns out he's also of a similar status (I guess you have to be to live in SF proper) but that wasn't what they bonded over initially.

As a straight dude, I saw less of that on the dating apps, but there was still some. When I was single, I traveled across the country and checked out the online dating scenes in many places... in D.C. it was ALL status signaling, and I never felt so inadequate in my whole life, lol: women who have multiple post-grad degrees working for some important bleeding-heart nonprofit (but without an accompanying ego, thank god), civil servants, etc. In Chicagoland it was a mix of finance people and regular people who loved music, food, and summers especially. Not a lot of techies. In the SF area it was a lot of tech, yes, but also a few working-class outdoorsy types. In the smaller towns it was totally different, and profession almost never came up. It was usually offhandedly mentioned (or just alluded to) in like the third or fourth paragraph. People seemed a lot happier in those communities too.

Shrug. I don't know where the OP is located, but maybe that alone can shape their outlook... (edit: they live in NYC, as they mentioned in the OP. Makes more sense.)

Power tool manuals are the worst.

Often times when I buy a kitchen appliance it has some basic info on all of the functionality and perhaps a nice recipe book. Vitamix stood out here, and Breville is mostly okay but could be better.

Power tools though. Dewalt has a folded up piece of paper in micro-font that has technical diagrams that are hard to read and understand. And forget about something like a "recipe" book for simple projects (even if it could be an upsell for another tool.)
Huh that's helpful, thanks! To be fair I mostly only need it for new dialects but my successful attempts with other tools seem to follow the same pattern.
Stating that diversity of thought existed in the effectively autocephalous European Church from the 5th through the mid-10th century conflates accidental diversity with intentional. It’s true that the Church was more decentralized in this period, but this diversity arose from a lack of centralized control, not from a deliberate policy of tolerance or openness.

Before the Gregorian Reform in the 11th century, the Papacy’s direct influence on 'frontier' archbishoprics was relatively negligible. However, as the centralization of Rome, the Roman Rite, and ecclesiastical subordination to the Papacy took full form, the Church’s suppression of divergent practices and beliefs became systematic. This period saw the emergence of many of the 'truly bad' features often associated with the Church, such as uniform enforcement of orthodoxy and suppression of dissent. See R. I. Moore's The Formation of the Persecuting Society for a full treatment.

Your argument is like claiming that Red Hat in the 2000s promoted diversity because independent Linux distributions existed. In reality, Red Hat itself has always been monolithic. The existence of an independent Linux ecosystem that preceded Red Hat does not make Red Hat a promoter of diversity. Similarly, the diversity of regional practices in early medieval Christendom was not a feature of the Church but a byproduct of decentralization, which later reforms actively sought to eliminate. Diversity arising from a lack of control is not the same as cultivating it within an institution.

Moreover, reliance on orthodoxy is a feature, not a bug, of the Roman Catholic Church. This reliance has historically been central to the Church's identity and governance. Attempts to portray the Church as inherently diverse prior to the Counter-Reformation overlook its systematic suppression of autochthonous rites and regional practices as centralization took hold. Rather than prevaricating, Catholics need to embrace this reliance on orthodoxy as central to the Church’s unity instead of this kind of revisionism.
If you see an enterprise software product starting to decline, as VMWare has in the cloud era, then sometimes the "best" (but evil) thing to do is just milk your customers as hard as you can. Just squeeze every penny out of people who are stuck with you. Any migration of a large enterprise will take several years so you can just get all that money in one big go and then shoot the product in the head.
I saw that booth, it was pathetic.
No, it does not. It says "The crew of Yi Peng 3, which is captained by a Chinese national and includes a Russian sailor..." That is not at all "a Russian crew."
Power is a prerequisite for the job. Any attempt to design a replacement would only be as useful as the power that the designers wield.
Well, if the requirement is to stay in the type, you could extend the type to include the point at infinity. That satisfies both programmer and the mathematician.

That's a good thought in isolation. The problem however is how are you going to ensure the money collected for that purpose go to the projects that actually need it and there wont be any corruption involved?

It isn't hard to notice, for example, that in EU where gamedev companies often receive grants for various nebulous reasons tend to be companies that do not need the money in the first place (and yes, of course there are devs who received money that needed them, somehow people have to excuse the existence things they benefit from).

It's not about typos or mishearing stuff, it's about words being jumbled in memory. Unlike a sequence of digits, people don't store words "engineering" in their head as a string (eg. "E-N-G-I-N-E-E-R-I-N-G"). It's stored as something like "[concept of engineer] + [present participle]". That's far more likely to get jumbled in people's head during recall.
I refuse to believe they didn’t notice a key difference in the phones - the iPhone 16 will feel much, much snappier. Games aside, just opening any old app will be much faster. I notice this every time I upgrade, even when it’s just going up 3 versions, not 8.
See the animation https://www.gitkraken.com/learn/git/git-rebase#how-to-git-re... . It is very limited as I said (happens at the branch level not individual commits and you can't choose base), but at least it solves one of the most annoying (but solvable) parts for me - remembering which of the 3 arguments for "git rebase" is which and in what order they go. Even in GUI clients where you have single "rebase" button interacting with current branch it's not always fully obvious whether it will rebase current branch or on top of current branch.

Of course it's not hard to imagine how a program could potentially do a lot more. And I would understand if compared to that you called the functionality GitKraken provides as having nothing at all.

Nodes only get so big. Way back when, a quad xeon 4650 v2 was definitely not 2x the throughput of a dual xeon 2690 v2; so you end up with two dual socket systems instead of one quad socket. A quad socket server often costs significantly more than two dual socket servers, and is likely to take longer between order and delivery. There's usually a point where you can still scale up, but scaling out is a better use of resources.
