They’re my favorite controller out of the ones in the market right now. I really enjoy being able to have one controller in each hand. As others have said, their primary issue is with quality control around stick drift.

From my understanding, they are trying to make Math education available to the entire population of the world. And now provide one on one personalized tutoring that currently only a fraction of the wealthiest people in their respective coun

I play drums for fun. The vocalists usually wear earplugs too. Because they’ll get hearing damage if they don’t. Instruments can be loud. Look up “Earasers” if interested, they’re the ones I use. They work in a way that music sounds reasona

I use Linux. You absolutely need to drop down to the command line at times. Upgrading my Kennel, or Graphics driver breaks something like 20% of the time for me.

I play competitive games in tournaments. I would disagree with your characterization. Yes, people have a skill ceiling. However, it’s not something you’re ever going to get to by just playing most games. People naturally improve at games wh

I started with just Nix-Shell in WSL with Home Manager. Then I have kept adapting that file for my Linux, OS X, and other needs. I didn't touch NixOS at all until years later. I'm really, really glad I started with Home Manager. I

That's an interesting take I haven't heard ever before. I'd love to ask some questions if you happen to know the answer: - Since people are constantly retiring, and selling the stocks they are holding at that point: Wouldn&#x

I found the comment valuable. I might be unmotivated to contribute to an OS project purely for the sake of doing so. But throwing some money in, I might go like "Alright I'll tackle this". Certainly I'm at least glad a t

The Evolution series by Primer on Youtube is a game changer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDvzbBRiNlA&list=PLKortajF2d... It starts with very basic, and cute blobs. And builds simulations around how they evolve. But

Yeah, this also reminded me of the way that Neural networks that play video games might make a new connection that is not super efficient, but by a combination of reasons ended up being more effective than it might usually be in that scenar

I love both Google, and Facebook. I'm constantly blown away that something like Youtube exists, I love my Oculus Quest and use it daily, I keep in touch with friends on WhatsApp, and use Google Search more than any other website. I&#x2

I use .webm files all the time as stand-ins for GIF, and more and more sites/apps have support for inline playback nowadays. You can strip the audio out completely from those files, and have like 20 second recordings that map out to ~1

To give the opposing argument some form of development, reading comprehension is the responsibility of the reader as well. Some authors are hard to understand, but the message they are trying to convey could be worth extracting. As a reader

I think this comment feels like trying blatantly to pin OP into a bad position, honestly this is quite disingenuous.

Hey Zach! Been using Just Read for years, just wanted to give you a quick shout-out to say I love the plugin.

That is cool! Out of curiosity, how intrusive is living around wine turbines? Is it a problem at all? Or are they mostly unnoticeable?

This is a weird ponzi-scheme like comment. If you are a creative director, you have people working under you. How do you all get to be creative directors?

Oh, check out Nix https://nixos.org/nix/ I use it for most of my dependencies, and software in OS X/Windows WSL/Linux It is a lovely environment to work with. Has completely changed how I feel about package m

Sometimes I run into comments which make me realize how differently people can think about the world. It's always a bit of a shock. It does make me feel a bit of despair at the prospect of humanity ever reaching an agreement that would

Damn, I think I actually really like this! I'm going to switch from Operator Mono after 3 or so years for the first time, for a month or so to see if I want to switch completely. Thanks for contributing this! Really cool font.

Git comes to mind as well, I can go to Bitbucket or Gitlab and upload my repository with its full history in seconds. Or my own self-hosted repository if I wanted. I don't agree with grandparent for what it's worth, just thought t
