I know lots of euro bros are showing how long their country is, but I think the point is that Texas is a state, not country. When you compare those things it’s quite impressive, however still not even the largest state in the world. Here are some others. A nice drive from Anchorage to Prudhoe Bay will cost you 17 hours, or in Amazonas, Brazil, Manaus to Cruzeiro do Sul is 33 hours.
To the guy who annexed Arizona into California in order to beat Texas, shame.
If you look up Zied Aouina (issue creator), he’s a principal SWE at MS. Seems within his power to read the codebase and figure out his question if he claims he can’t find the documentation.
Use localxpose, it’s great and well priced.
Not yet able to replace talent
Affirm is a big one. Bloomberg spent the past few weeks talking with the Affirm CEO.
Does this work well with X11 -> Wayland communication? Or do both computers need to be Wayland?
I think that sentiment is the same why people ask why there aren’t more Linux user’s. Some people just don’t bother.
They should have cut off her meal plan instead!
Sorry… going to hell for that joke. I commend her for standing up against two big institutions and putting herself out there for us.
Interesting. I saw the Qidi X-Plus 3 advertises 600mm/s vs Bambu P1S 500mm/s. And the P1S doesn’t offer a heated chamber. Have you noticed a difference in quality from the heated chamber?
I haven’t yet been convinced of the bambu cool-aid mainly because of closed software. Klipper support is a big value prop. Who knows how long bambu will support OS versions and what happens if they start charging for cloud. It’s a young company, so not a lot of confidence yet.
Looks like a sweet printer. I was thinking of buying a Bambu for the holidays, but this looks like a better deal.
What 3D printer do you have? The print looks good.
Are you taking these B-17 supplements daily? I’m just as much as a cynical person as the next guy, especially when it would comes to the pharmaceutical industry, but since cancer affects all life on earth, I think there is some nuance to it. The cynicism in me says that this B-17 vitamin is being pushed by ‘big supplement’, the other side of the coin trying to sell products to consumers and corralling vitriol for modern medicine.
‘Natural’ and Modern medicine can coexist, they both can work and you can also trust neither. As a recipient of the ‘poison injection’ you are talking about, I am feeling fine so far.
Not sure the link you sent works on my app, but after doing a quick search, Vitamin B-17 has been banned by the FDA and is even regarded as dangerous.
Sounds like you are a real pleasant person to work with
I appreciate your opinion. I know that the qualification I made is a controversial one as everyone wants to be an ‘engineer’, but I’m still confident it holds. Applying physics is not purely at the atomic level. In web development, one of the physical challenges can be bandwidth, however, while most people claim to concerned about bandwidth, in reality they don’t do anything about it. Minifying code is cool, but that’s not doing any engineering by itself. Calculating the throughput your datacenter can dish out for your 1million users as you write a function that optimizes load vs lag of streaming video, that’s engineering.
Thinking about user interaction and experience is more psychological than it is physical in most cases. Designing the user experience of a medical device or cockpit switch are both not automatically qualified for engineering: unless, you are designing the medical interface to overcome spasms that someone with Parkinson’s has, or, the cockpit switch is designed with a plastic mix to survive the temperature, vibration or weight requirement, it’s going to be more of an art-than-science. I’m not saying one is worse, but we need to make the distinction between designers, developers, scientists and engineers.
I understand that everyone wants to be an engineer, whether for pride or just to feel more important (hell I want the engineer title too). Unfortunately, the tech industry (with arguably one of the most conflated egos) liberally tossed around software engineering to every role to attract talent and I don’t see that changing. It’s a profession, so whatever you are being paid to do will determine if you are engineering
I typically tell people that engineering is applying physics. If you aren’t directly interacting with the physical world, you are most likely a developer.
Working on an app, no matter how complex (or unessarily convoluted) generally makes you a developer. If you aren’t thinking about impact of clock cycles, actuation/hardware interfaces or sensing, there is a high chance that the work you do has little to no risk or a chance of failure that is governed by the physical world. As said in other comments, engineers design and sign off on things. There is an implication that there is an unknown constraint, unlike a fully observable software environment.
Curious why the down votes? I think it’s fair to say this news has been pretty remarkable and has even made it on the news stations. I think a lot of people are probably learning his name right now and makes him seem ‘valuable’ if the board asks him to come back.
Just took a look at Framework, it’s a cool concept. I wish the company was older just to see how it forms it’s sea legs. As a mass market item, I can’t imagine the general populace upgrading their own laptop over time, though maybe I’m just old. I didn’t see any computers made from Valve, but I had not thought of them as a hardware company.
But yeah I agree, companies will form their optimization function for profits not people (by design) so people should never put their faith in them. This M1 Air is my first Mac, but I do have to say it is really nice. Excited to see what other companies do to combat it.
My friend, my goal is not to make you upset, just giving my thoughts. Your metaphors don’t exactly make sense in this context, and some of your responses are telescopic focusing on one thing when other companies do equal, nothing or worse. If you could name a company that is exceeding your expectations, I’d love to hear it as I would support them as well.
Regardless, I hope that you have a great day.
The futbol clubs will disagree!
