Yup, there was some political bill discussion about some recent issue and others were posting links, so I thought I'd concur with an interesting vote breakdown link showing how each house/party voted. Something anyone I would gath

Quality of life is very subjective though. Americans by and large are anti-social, so these sparse layouts/nimbyism are a result of that. This in turn reinforces living patterns which may or may not be optimal for any given person. Ag

Well the obvious is that, monkey-see-monkey-do, and they don't want to miss out. But the insidious externality is that they are the most likely ones (and higher ups) to be invested in nvidia and others, so when they push you to use, it

Hole punching, which has various forms, may or may not work. This means if you're doing something realtime, you may need to stick a server(reachable endpoint) in between it, at the very least reducing performance.

it was linux, i either copied them with $cp -ar or $rsync -a then distinctly remembered diffing each drive against each other with $diff -qr <drive1> <drive2>

Buyer be warned i think this is extremely brand-dependent. While i've had generally solid experience with sandisk for almost 20 years and had a few old drives (which i hear are slc-based so its not surprising) hold files for over 5 yea

> Why do these services have to suck so much. They can do what they please. Its due to the network effects. The tie-ins of tech are so strong, I'd wager that %99 of why they succeed has nothing to do with competency or making a prod

Doesnt surprise me, Seagate is marching to its own drum. My experience defiantly mirrors others' higher than average failure rate as well. My latest 'fun' experience with them, also, came in the form of an Ironwolf drive whic

This is gold. I have rarely had the words pulled out of my mouth. The percentage of devs in my career that are from the same academic background, show similar interests, and approach the field in the same way, is probably less than %10, sad

Both are true, and both should be allowed to exist as they serve different purposes. Sound engineers don't use lossy formats such as MP3 when making edits in preproduction work, as its intended for end users and would degrade quality c

I could have sworn, back in my day, on WinNT4 we successfully chained a red and white pair from Autodesk. One for AutoCad, and either Mechanical Desktop or 3ds Max.

I had a very similar story related to this as well. For the longest time I always assumed RF remotes were the ancient ones, as growing up, we had an old large Magnavox console tv, with just such a remote. As time progressed we went to IR,

yeah, when i used to live in New England, and had more time to be interested in transit, i always was peaked in how comcast would route. No matter how far south i seemed to get, i'd always need to travel to Boston's peering point

All this theatre is turning out to be nothing more than giving up the agency we have today (nice things), for a risk averse kneejerk runaround with glaring ulterior motives...just like the scan your face+id push for services.
