Paraphrasing something that I once heard in a podcast: "Getting a crossed line on the telephone was the internet of the 80's".

This read almost exactly like an Uncyclopedia article.

This is the best bet if the OP is looking for an existential thriller.

I rambled on and forgot to make my point. My point is, maybe the same way those markets couldn't figure out the fact act of creating a "digital faucet" did not automatically made all the existing faucets "analog", t

His replies make me reminisce the good old days when digital TV was first introduced in my native Brazil all the way back in 2007. It was most people's first contact with actual HD video (remember, DVD's were king back in the day

Black Mirror's Christmas Special (White Christmas) comes to mind. Seem to fit the bill almost to a T. The only difference being that the AI's are clones made from real humans.

Think about it from Meta's HR perspective. If someone reads something in their internal platform that causes them substantial mental anguish, then it's Meta's problem. Whereas if they listen to that same opinion by overhearin

I think that we are missing the point here. Meta is banning open discussion on their internal platform. It does not mean that you can't chat about it with a co-worker that also happens to be your friend. I think it's reasonabl

Whilst I disagree with getting a whole degree in order to have some authority in the field, I wholeheartedly agree with the message. I remember a section of the book "The Art of Thinking Clearly" by Frank Dobelli dedicated specifi

It's been a hot minute since I saw a release of major software on Sourceforge. Wow!

But the energy release from the gasoline would be much slower, right?

As a quasi sidenote, most gyms already implement this on a smaller scale on their elliptical and spinning machines as they're usually self powered and you can regulate the resistance the machine offers, which I assume must increase or

I agree with you, nobody should. But what took me by surprise was that they get angry even about their headspaces. For instance, sending someone a text and saying "don't worry about this until you're back from your break&quot

I wonder if such a disruption is the reason why some people seem to be excessively prone to blackheads, like yours truly for instance, my nose looks like a strawberry up close.

Sounds like a mirror of wash trading of the crypto world.

Depending on how dumb the battery controller is, all it takes is pumping the right voltage back into the appropriate pins.

I'm pleasantly surprised at the effort being put into avoiding false positives. I can easily imagine a doctor put in a tough spot whilst deciding to treat a possible early stage cancer. If he gets it wrong a malpractice lawsuit is su

Yuck! Thanks for the warning though!

All in all it was all a very incidental experience. Our CTO came out of the blue showing this thing, he spent an afternoon designing a floor flor the developers that mimics the IRL office. At the beginning it all felt gimmicky and felt like

I wholeheartedly second this. I have an unique lens on this issue as I'm in a unique spot. Despite being Brazilian myself, for most of my career I worked and managed US based developers, and just very very recently shifted to working d

I wonder how they would verify that with foreigners, especially those with a history of poor record-keeping. I surmise that there must be at least a couple of countries where a marriage certificate is nothing more than a plain sheet of copy

This seems to be a take on Gather.town with more realistic graphics. My team has been using Gather for almost a year now, so I'll give it a shot.

Sorry if I come across as aggressive or condescending. But why? I'm don't immediately disagree with your opinion, just curious.

This feels more like a half-baked supermarket marketing campaign than an actual push for innovation. But hey, I'm all for it! It's one of those rare market conditions that allow creative people to bring wacky new ideas to life.

I can 100% relate to that. For most of my 12 year long career I wrote, spoke and produced technical documentation exclusively in English. Now that I work with a bunch of Portuguese speaking people, I find that I have a hard time communicati

The latter makes a lot of sense, if people have to put in more mental work to extract a meaning from it, they might treasure their findings more. Cool concept.

Not very well actually. that idiom is used almost exclusively in a joking manner when referring to HIV testing in specific.

Kind of off-topic but, why does the angloworld keep using a translation of the bible that's written in an almost "archaic" English (yes I know, I'm exaggerating, but I can't think of a better description from the to
