Can confirm, my buddy who is someone I respect immensely, is an embedded programmer. He will talk about OS events, or any low level concept and it makes me feel like I don’t know anything, but he acts like I’m a genius if I talk about JavaS

You hit it on the money, third places won’t matter if it’s not accessible. We need to promote density, walkability and time. In America there is an idea that anyone who wants more that 4 hours to live outside of work is lazy or in some form

This is something that I care deeply about and have put a lot of thought into. I can only speak to what I think needs to be done in America. Public transportation. Removing or heavily rolling back zoning laws. Government investment in child

I've been gaming on Linux (CachyOS) for roughly a year now as well, and I love it. Better performance, faster loading, but I do admit there are drawbacks. I'm a developer, so I'm techy enough how to look up what I don't

I think those prediction markets need to have the same regulations as casinos at this point.

Linus Torvald was in a recent Linus Tech Tips video and I think his take was good. Why can't it be both a bubble and revolutionary? I use it, I'm cautious with it, but it is useful, if it wasn't stack overflow wouldn't b

I've been wanting to learn more embedded type projects, and I've been snacking too often so I've been building a box that will only open on the weekends. I got all the components, tested it on a breadboard, learned to solder

It's projects like this that make me feel awe. I'm a full stack developer, but I feel like I don't have the low level knowledge to know all the work that goes into a project like a terminal emulator. I love the app on my Mac,

I did some surface-level research, but I couldn’t find any country that explicitly or publicly requested this from Google. While I saw countries discussing the issue, none of them seemed to ask Google directly to only allow authorized third

I wish I could know if the people at OpenAI, Meta, Microsoft and other leading AI companies truly believe this. Personally, I have not seen anything that points to AI taking Jobs. Useful yes, has the same competency as a person, not even cl

If that's the case, then why is that, why would OpenAI not want to release their best models when the AI race is still close? I would assume it's due to energy constraints, and if that's true, the opinion that this can't

The comments here kinda surprise me. We should encourage people to talk to their community, their fellow citizen, neighbor, that's what the human experience is.

I have a different opinion than most of my friends on this topic. They claim that it's just like the calculator, everyone said that if we offset our math work on a calculator it will make us all dumb. So logically the same applies for

Nature takes the path of least resistance. In my experience, especially people. Make it easy people will use it, make it difficult and they won't. It's the reason apple became apple, even though I don't think the iPhone is in

I was overweight my entire life up to when I was 21. In less than 2 years I went from 300lb to 198lb (136kg to 89kg). I'm 6'4 so 198 personally was not maintainable, but I was working out, and I felt my best at 205, which I sat at

This was one of the few things I was hoping for AI to help with. Cobol is so clunky, and no one wants to work with it and to my Surprise, Cobol jobs don't pay as much as people think. It's not our problem to fix, but I'm surp

It's not just about avoiding the US out of anger; it's more about preventing US companies from having too much control over their citizens and daily lives. By focusing on open-source solutions, whether American or not, it should s

I understand this isn't an official EU project, but with the ongoing trade war and Europe's desire to distance itself from US big tech, I'm excited to see what they develop. Americans might appreciate this too, as the interne

This is a cool idea, are you thinking of self-hosting this or on their servers? Have they mentioned anything about any guidelines for what their blob storage can be used for? I know doom is small and that's a great idea, a workshop is

Under 1000: Steamdeck I love it, as someone who is trying to cope with not having as much time to game it is the best. It is also Linux with a modular body, so I get to tinker with it like no other. Added clicky Dpad and replaced the shell

I don't like it, but it seems the internet always reacts more to inherently negative posts. That seems to be common across the entire internet, I think that's why the internet doesn't seem as fun as it did 10 years ago. I&#x2
