In the last two years Windows 11 has shipped with increasingly serious bugs. Many of my co-workers report needing to reboot a few times a day because issues just compound. I regula…

I'm not sure the cause and effect are accurate here. It's very likely more the other way: that folks curious about the world and how it works did that research in spite of religion…

I've wanted to build this myself for a long time but couldn't figure out how to overcome the spicy pillow problem. Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree, but I thought it was risky t…

I just released a new update to mine yesterday with ranges and the ability to make a story of multiple saved scenes. Then they can be played back at a presentation later. https://w…

I'm volunteering to help build out a nonprofit EMS authority that will tax residents and businesses in our local six boroughs to spread out the costs for ambulance transports. We h…

After reading this comment I also wanted the same thing and found this https://www.up2stream.net/products/up2stream-mini-receiver-b...

It's easy to point to high profile nepotites but I've known plenty of folks from all classes who have self-destructed. It's hardly limited to those with lives of leisure.

It's behind a paywall, what's the recommendation?

I read somewhere that the average developer only has 7 years of experience. This should be a fairly sobering warning to anyone getting into tech that you should be saving every pen…

From 2024-2025 I worked as a firefighter instructor while running my own tech business, and after two years I decided I was done instructing. I could not handle working on my feet …

If anyone wants to see where the ClusterGate-2 server is in orbit: https://spacebook.com/explorer?scene=8451c006-9e1a-4943-8202...

You're missing: "Climate is warming, but this is a good thing because it means Jesus will come back sooner and I'll live in endless bliss and not have to go to work anymore, so I'm…

The results seem pretty clear that CBT can be quite effective in helping with ADHD. Unlike insulin, which cannot be produced with any sort of therapy, it does seem that ADHD can be…

I don't really care about long term implications of the OS for my standalone gaming rig in my living room. If it works, it works. Bazzite works, so I'm happily using it. If it stop…

I agree, while I love older music, generally I find I can only hear a song so many times before my enjoyment starts to fade. It takes considerable time away to recover a song from …

I love this writing, it really captures the author's depression from losing a loved one. Also made me think about how much the technologists have become almost a cult of money and …

I generally agree with you. Which is why this Jesse Welles's stuff hits me like a freight train https://youtu.be/I6vjaimSK4E?si=e18sT1m179W2bM2G

One thing that I almost never see counted in studies of weight loss is the energy acquired from breathing. We extract out oxygen from the air constantly. I tried to guestimate it o…

Because too many bad interviews are all about ensuring that the candidate knows the exact same 1% of CS/SWE knowledge as the interviewer. Don't worry, karma dictates when the inter…

If you've ever been to a dialysis center when a patient accidentally pulls out the line you can imagine why. They are thick lines that will rapidly make a huge mess. I guess though…

This is so true, from 2018-2021 my internal banking product was able to use blockchain hype to clean up a lot of our database schema. Our CTO was rubber stamping everything with th…

The human brain doesn't stop maturing until 25. You can't rent a car until that age in the US. I would have gotten much more if I'd attended university starting at 25. However, it …

Funny the last two months Teams has been the most buggy software I use. Nearly every day it drops a call, loses microphone connection, simply refuses to load, and chats disappear. …

I've yet to see the solarpunk argument: buying a house lets you generate value with the land/building. For example, perennial fruit and veggie gardens in your backyard let you inve…
