All enablers also enable mediocrity. That's not new. At least when the non-mediocre engineer has to work with someone, they can have a tireless responsive partner. I find this varies by individual, but the AI taking care of so much boi

I'm not American or ever worked in the USA. It's not a judgement of human value. It's a judgement of work output.

When you criticize AI, always remember that the alternative is the average employee. Today's models are pretty good.

For example in the UK the police did a sting simply by wearing expensive watches, and caught 31 robbers in a 12 month period. https://www.bbc.com/news/av/uk-68003783 I agree that all the random factors you mention

12 years later and still no availability in Middle East or Africa. Only available in 30-something countries. Google can't figure out retail, while upstart Chinese companies hit the global market immediately. If you buy it in a country

You're probably right, but my point was more specific than general fitness means less sensitivity to temperature. I haven't experience that either. I meant the specific many temperature shocks daily (hot to cold to coldest to ok t

Something crazy I've experience is when I swam in an outdoors pool every morning early for a while. This involves several temperature shocks, like jumping into the shower (hot), then walking from the shower to the pool (cold), then jum

For the same reason I'm against capital punishment. I don't trust the state with the due dilegence to have direct power over life and death. What happens when care is available but insurance figures assisted death is cheaper? The

Then more along those lines is the walking simulator genre. It's called walking simulator generally because combat is not emphasized, with focus on immersion, exploration, and narrative. How puzzly it is varies from not at all to all a

PC games generally assume you have an Xbox controller. I'm not sure about Linux compatibility but based on a quick search it should work fine.

It's hard to recommend games when you don't have a baseline taste. The past couple of years having a demo became very common on Steam, so I suggest trying some demos. You've played a 2D platformer and a multiplayer shooter, t

I had to accept cookies once, not each time I look up a recipe or a new piece of information. That's comparable to having to install a browser. I also didn't have to scan a hostile list of websites fighting for my attention to pic

In-depth technical presentations were identified as a contributing factor to the Challenge crash. That's why Amazon's meetings have memos. https://mcdreeamiemusings.com/blog/2019/4/13/gsux1h6bnt

In my experience, people also use slides as a document rather than an aide. In all my presentations I prefer to use slides as a companion to my planned speech. Then afterwards I'm completely surprised when people ask for my slides. I s

It's the other way around. You can do very few productive things with Windows other than software development. Almost all other professional software assume Windows.

Unless the game designers specifically accounted for it, cooperative games can rob the autonomy of less confident players. One overbearing player can hijack the whole game. To them to win the game as designed it feels correct to do. In comp

Japanese game companies are a lot more protective about their IP. Nintendo is simply consistent about that in the West. To them it's quite normal to exercise a lot of control over how your work is presented in public, which includes th
