The whoopsie is implying that what was on paper and legal… Where in the U. S. is it legal to irrigate crops with gray water? Nowhere I’m aware of, except a few places where subsurf…

Musk screws Memphis and this the result. Is your data center quiet and doesn’t use water? Doesn’t matter, it’s now known that data center builders argue in bad faith, and we aren’t…

Gray water doesn’t have poop in it, and I’d be shocked if it were legal to dump black water (raw sewage) on fields.

… or play any part in making the internet suck. Right, it’s the ad-blocking that’s making the internet suck. You’re going to hurt your lower back carrying that much water.

Most interesting is that interviewers were still asking such questions some fifteen years after Microsoft interviewers were told by HR to quit asking such questions (because the an…

It’s not a bad premise. We are both retired tech workers who are doing alright, and a few low-dollar subs won’t having us in the bread line. But where I might let a sub slide becau…

I suggest going for the most charitable interpretation of OPs writing. This is isn’t it.

I meant when I wrote. I just might not have meant it as seriously as you seem to think.

Despite TFA coming from Visa, of all places, I found it to be a read worthy of my time. Basically, inheritances might not be as large as one might suspect, and the all that "inheri…

Sibling comment says "diversify", and I tend to agree. I've seen some shit, man. 2000 dot bomb, 2008, bumps along the way. 2000, I was in tech stocks like everyone else, lost a bun…

Believe it or not, you are legally bound to act in the interests of shareholders. Though a common Internet trope, this is incorrect. However, “legally” or not, you might find yours…

RunGap will export a FIT file (w/o looking, I think it’s FIT) to iCloud and Dropbox. So it’s technically possible to glue some pieces together. Practically? Dunno, but it might wor…

I’m sure you could. At what point do you just rip out the thing that is trying so hard to work around your control of your network? An Apple TV doesn’t cost that much.

There have been articles lately about the residential proxies loaded in apps for LG TVs. My LG has never seen a network connection, so I’m fuzzy on details.

Upon connecting it to the internet… I hesitate to blame the victim here, but why on earth would you do that? “$40 Chinese-made” didn’t give you pause?

Seeing bubbles is reasonably easy. Forecasting when they pop and when to get out is very hard. Amen, $SIBLING. Even an idiot like me could see it coming in 2007, triggered by a you…

You would have liked the last place I worked before retirement. Full-on software test team and everything. Private offices, too. Don't get me wrong, there were warts (oh, were ther…

Testing is not "Quality Assurance". If I got nothing else out of TFA, at least I could raise my hands and shout an "amen!".

We were talking about the Una watch, and you were, too. Your Epix still twice the price, so the comparison is invalid. As for the "iWatch" , well, if you haven't researched enough …

I am curious about his size, I never saw anyone who worked on subs. I felt they would be smaller on average in size due to cramped conditions. I play music with a guy who was a wea…

Naps and rest “charge”, and yes, Garmin keeps track of that. Not that I put a whole lot of weight in those data personally.

Zero chance a iWatch would ever survive these conditions. Mine survives such things just fine. My Garmin Epix watch is practically bullet proof. And your Epix cost about twice as m…
