I can tell you one area in renewables that's NOT winning. Offshore. In the industry, there was some talk about how GE is pulling out of the offshore wind turbine market. Sucks to be wind farms that were built using those GE turbines.

Ever heard of webtoons? Its that one Korean web comic format that is just infinite scrolling until a chapter ends. I HATE that UI design so much that I really think whoever actually came up with it knows nothing about UI or UX design to beg

The word you're looking for is "Gamification" and I honestly, I fucking hate it. The problem with Gamification in this context is that apps like Duolingo that uses Gamification to award you good boy points (daily streak) in t

Maybe I'm not the right audience for this as I came from a EE background, but I really do not see this as a good resource. I feel like the material from allaboutcircuits.com covers most of the material in this site up until chapter 11

Interesting. I actually started buying components to build a new hackintosh to replace my old El Captain one from 2013. Man, I can't believe how far SSDs have come. My current SSD is only 250 GB and now you can get a 1TB SSD for like 1

Escapism? The article said she plays around 90 minute each day after work. This is no different than how most people watch netflix after work to unwind. Its not like she spend ten ACTUAL years in the game like a hikikomori.

I actually set up a pihole a week ago. Still trying to figure out to how optimize my use out of it as it doesn't block everything (mainly Chinese stuff). I also considered a magic mirror, but my problem with a magic mirror is that I do
