    I do see your point, and I agree that covers most cases, but can it really be a definition if it doesn't cover all cases? Are just talking about a distinction between "edge" in an …

    I'd love to hear a better one. Care to comment?

    My takeaway from this is that a lot of people disagree on what "edge" is. IMO, "edge" is the furthest resource that you have some computational level of control over. Could be a da…

    This is the one I always use. Especially popular in the overlanding world which is fitting because everything is so overpriced.

    Officially, my employer has moved on to three common "in office" work days per week (T-Th). Unofficially, that's a goal and people still often work from home during those days. But…

    Can someone that understands ML better than I tell me if there is a point where the AI can indefinitely train on data generated by other AI? If AI is trained on human development w…

    To that parent's point, < 1% has gone to charities which means the foundation is just spending money on the people that work in and own the foundation. I wouldn't need to get paid …

    Wife and I use Bitwarden. My master password is in hers and hers is stored in mine. I once toyed with the idea of building a "dead man's switch"-type service that requires clicking…

    This is the right solution. It really sucks, but feels like it's out of OP's hands. It's not worth the risk to personal safety.

    Give me another Freespace game. I never expected to get such excellent storytelling from a space sim. Other than that, I'd really like to get a game based on Mistborn. I think the …

    This feels oddly specific. I'm not sure why you can't engage on Twitter and still not be "lacking in real life." Who even gets to define "real life?" And while I'm sure some people…

    How so? What's the problem with LTT? Are you just bothered that they're more than a purely informational source?

    > > Should I tell my boss and/or team? > No, they will stab you in the back, no matter how much you think they won't. I disagree that this is universally true. I have had at least …

    In my experience, the right answer totally depends on your employment situation and your relationship with your boss and team. I think the safest answer is to try and mix things up…

    What I've found while working in defense is that when your customer issues a statement of work with clear high level requirements then you're going to need waterfall (even if just …

    This is either a hilarious accident or genius comedy.

    It is definitely a thing. And for big projects it can be helpful. But in most cases I think a scrum master should probably handle multiple projects if that is going to be their ded…

    To me it's charming and funny. I like it. Others will, too.

    Really? It doesn't get much cheaper than $1/mo. Yes, I know that's only 2GB, but how many images do you need to share anonymously with the internet?

    This is pretty alarming. To me, climate change has always been real but I always assumed the effects were going to be much further in my future. Clearly I was wrong. In just the la…

    I think this is overly optimistic. While I think I agree, you make it sound like there will be no consequences. I think things will get much worse before the human race decides to …

    I feel like all of your points add unnecessary clarity. I don't think anyone would assume you should document the wrong things, or plan what you can't plan, or train people at inap…

    I know you're joking, but I agree with the parent comment. I have a number of AUKEY products and actually have had zero issues. I've also never been bothered by them to give a revi…
