You must also remember to download Ghidra and debugging tools haha

I saw this in an Italian store uptown. So it was a joke. Ok, that makes sense now haha

I really wish they didn’t store them on their side like that

I have the degree and think this whole thing is a bit silly. I work at Google as a senior SWE, and have been focused on machine learning for the last 10 years. The degree taught me a few interesting things that I would have picked up on my own, and way more uninteresting things that I don’t need for my job. Despite the degree, getting a new job at a high level requires leetcode, which is similar in principle-- a toll booth that most people can pass if they pay the fee (studying).

Many things make this problematic, including basic respect for time, but especially equity. We get a largely homogenous neurotype and background because only a narrow slice of people have the ability and will to meet these requirements, and they are only very loosely correlated to job performance.

It’s a positive too though-- without these entry requirements, companies could not justify high salaries. I say this knowing it is to my detriment-- we do not need this.

It is very modern American. We have been doing the McMansion thing for the last 40 years now. Why not add such an extension to the presidential house?

There’s probably a ribbon cable from the membrane. You could try buzzing out the keys and making one or adapting an ordered standard part

What else is there to do when people don’t accommodate?

I saw a guy like that in a blizzard last week

It is an autonomous driver system with human overseers. They are not in direct control all the time

I never had this until pipewire

They don’t seem to teach much critical thinking these days beyond a few elite institutions. The focus at the state schools I went to was churning out as many engineering grads as efficiently as possible.

What if you have a house fire and lose all devices with the key

Part of why it’s this way is the expense of getting anything approved! I blame our bureaucracy as much as I blame those types

Maybe not the mainstream news_papers_ of today, but likely much of the news

Yes, that’s what I’m suggesting. Keep in mind that in most other countries where insurance has less of a role, these are vastly cheaper than they are here. I expect more people will ultimately go then, especially the uninsured, because prices would no longer be artificially inflated by bureaucracy and for the purposes of negotiation with insurance.

The hard problem, the way I see it, would be taking us from here to there with minimal suffering during such a transition.

We could also go the opposite direction towards single-payer healthcare. That also can be more efficient than what we have if politicians don’t sabotage it, but I am concerned that here, they will, and we’ll end up with something like the U.K. NHS. Therefore, for the U.S. specifically, I don’t see this as a good option due to instability.

What we have now is a compromise that works for nobody.

Well, most insurance is only for emergencies, and it is priced accordingly. For example, when I drove a car, I didn’t have to deal with my auto insurance plan at all while getting gas or normal maintenance. However, when I got into a few bad accidents, the car insurance was vital for continuing to have a car, and it paid towards helping me get it fixed. Car insurance is insurance against something catastrophic happening to a vital part of life in most of America, not something to use everyday, and is priced accordingly.

Health insurance here is very different from car insurance. Rather than an emergency contingency, health insurance is woven into most healthcare purchases in the U.S. Accordingly, it is very expensive, limiting, and inefficient. Due to the dynamics of the system it creates, Americans must usually pay through the nose for even everyday healthcare without insurance.

If health insurance was operated more like car insurance, except of course that a human life should never be “totaled out,” the system would eventually adjust and normalize.

I was in Austin, TX not long ago, and they were swarming the whole city. I think people just made less of a deal about it there.

Yeah, I wish health insurance was just “you’ll never pay more than 20k a year on medical bills” or something like that. Let me find my own damn doctor

Wouldn’t it make more sense for the clock to have just 3 rows or columns? Hour/minute/second.

They’re never getting those integrations back though, e.g. Spotify. Those are usually implemented in each company’s servers rather than something that can be brokered locally through an API. That needs to change

Wow, it’s not a joke
