As a Staff Engineer, at least for now I'd be happy with the money that comes with the Principal title

Hold on a sec, the whole clearing map scenario. Is it for reusing within your fn or is it trying to free memory? If latter, I’ve just been hoping GC does its job

Yes of course, I'm not going to stop trying. Though my hopes of clearing the interview just hit 0%. I'll keep doing all preparations I can nevertheless

I got an interview scheduled with Meta/Facebook, for monday (14th Feb 2022). Their careers portal has a lot of sample leet codes, I'm not even able to do the level 1 puzzles. Sure going to bomb the interview with live codinng session! Sigh... this would have been a life changer for me
I'm assuming you meant the smart part, and not the image processing part. And all other kinds of audio/video processing. If yes, even I'd love to have that!

Made it this far, don't kill yourself now.
Interesting, I didn't know the charging cable was the limiting factor. Wouldn't the battery itself have any adverse effects, overheat etc?
Re:Indian Gov taxes Petrol at 200% + on Wednesday November 03, 2021 @11:09PM (#29103302)
Uh that's a creative way of looking at it. When you increase fuel prices:

1. Daily expense increases for commuters

2. An already weak public transport becomes expensive for commuters

3. Cost of almost everything increases (our logistics are road heavy)

4. Income of individuals are not increasing, so above 3 are going to hurt a lot more

i don't think it's about the grass (which generally they say not to walk or sit on, so as to not cause damage). Colleges/universities are run like schools (our schools are strict, have to wear uniform, mandatory attendance etc. etc.). So the level of freedom mentioned by OP in the U.S College, compared to India, would be 10x different
Re:Withings ScanWatch Horizon on Thursday October 28, 2021 @02:55AM (#29023187)
Anything that wouldn't hamper the battery life, I'm onboard! Otherwise I already very much enjoy this (Scanwatch) watch
Re:Withings ScanWatch Horizon on Thursday October 28, 2021 @02:54AM (#29023180)
I for one am happy with the small digital screen. Since I enjoy+prefer round faced analog watches. That coupled with 30 days battery is definitely perfect for me!
I'd honestly give up some performance for more battery life! M1 Pro max is no sloth when it comes to performance either.

True, though something odd is that there aren't multiple videos. Multiple ones available are all from the same building, maybe even same room
