    This a ridiculous view. It’s literally everywhere. Wanting to make money is one thing. Complete disregard for how you make it is another.

    Damn. I got two weeks notice and then got shown the door with nothing. And now I get to compete with all these people who are going to be so much less stressed

    Someone on the relevant dev team needs to fix that error message!! So frustrating to get an error that is obviously wrong. Handle your error cases properly guys. It makes you look …

    You should definitely check out the pinetime. I’m about to pick one up myself. For ~30 bucks why not. Default OS is a community project. I followed development for a few years. It’…

    My girlfriend also has this and I just found out my coworker has been dealing with it for some time. Has me wondering just how common it is

    The nested divs in modern markup are just signs of lazy bone headed devs. I’m constantly removing them from our own app because with either grid or flex box layout in the browser i…

    Yeah lululemon is your problem there I’m guessing. I just did the reverse. For the last decade most of the clothes I wore came from target and they were ok. I felt like the fits wo…

    I’m sure it will. My pessimistic take is that the worst case is that thousands of bozos create crappy little apps that only cause minimal harm. And people just endure it instead of…

    Eh. I tried to buy into this for years but I think my poor working memory just pushes me towards having something like it open. Maybe a little less now that I’ve become a heavy use…

    Seems obvious that if said social life is mostly with people who mostly just do drugs then no change will happen.

    Same here in Utah. We had crazies screaming about mark of the beast when digital ID first came up. They finally started it and it’s only through some garbage app. Probably someone …

    YouTube instagram and Dropbox definitely don’t scale thanks to python. They scale thanks to the massive infrastructure they built around some python code. Cdn caches etc. we all kn…

    Because an important feature and focus is that nim compiles to c and makes it easy to just import and use c libraries. So many of the 3rd party libs mentioned are NOT technically p…

    Using tailscale might be a better and easier solution.

    Yup. Somebody is going to write something that hogs cpu without yielding to the loop or queues up an absurd number of tasks waiting to be executed which effectively has a similar e…

    Are there even any run by non profits? I agree that this is so important today and the incentives will always be screwed up when run by a for profit company. Inevitably growth stop…

    Uh no. You would typically retrieve the data in a function and assign it to a variable scoped to the function. The struct or array then gets passed through a pipeline of functions …

    Only stupid people like me. I paid tens of thousands for cobra coverage. Never again. Nearly ruined me

    I’ve had the same thoughts and I’m glad I’m not alone. We like the money and prestige from wearing these titles but not the responsibility that others who call themselves engineers…

    I really don’t get the general attitude about comments that prevails. “Good code should be self explanatory” blah blah blah. As if “explains itself” weren’t a pretty damn wishy was…

    Hard disagree. Pretty much a ll of the UIs I’ve tried on other headsets that try to make everything 3d really suck. Most of the content we view on devices IS 2d. Trying to turn it …

    Quest 3 screens are lower res, just barely enough to make text somewhat workable for me. It is also missing the eye tracking. Latency with hand tracking is not as good I hear and t…

    Pretty sure the radios are down in the puck. Not by your head

    This device uses a puck. It’s going to be down on your belt right about where your cell phone with the same radios already is. This feels silly. Put on your tinfoil hat I guess? Ev…

    Go look for other headsets with similar features and especially optical quality. You won’t find anything much cheaper. The quest (even considering the pro) and pico devices are toy…
