I want a pinhole camera in my monitor so I can make eye contact with the other side when I'm looking at them. That's the biggest lacking feature to me on pc video conferencing.

Having worked with Intel fab from inside Intel design and with TSMC at a different company, Intel fab would do very well to standardize and work on supporting their customers. If they decoupled and provided better processes, it would greatly improve the experience for those working with the fab. As it is right now, the Intel fab has always been the tail that wags the dog. They've carried Intel off and on for so many years that if design wants something and the fab pushes back, well design gets to pound sand and find some workaround to the fab's processes.

Sounds fun. If I was driving a nuclear sub in the Atlantic sea, I'd definitely find an excuse to pop over and play with the kids splashing in my pond.

100% my point. Drawing a line at the purity of "maths" over "math" is the beginning of a rock fight in a village of glass houses.

For your next act, defend the British pronounciation of "Worcestershire".

I thinks it's possible with the access we both have to the other country's media via Netflix, prime, Hulu, et c., that our accents re-merge. When I was a kid, British accents were a little harder and Scottish accents were impossible, but after 15 years of Netflix, I don't even notice British accents anymore and Scottish accents are noticeable, but understandable.

My experience is if you buy very common hardware, other people have already driven over all landmines.

We don't know that these other op sec issues weren't cases of "parallel construction"

I did something similar, but gave up chasing parasitic electrical losses and didn't want to make the solar panel to power it huge.

Me too! Was astounded by the price of a standard solution and said to myself, "I can do that cheaper [ assuming my time is worth less than minimum wage.]" Still works, 7 years after install.

So much whining about the insecurity. If someone offers you triple your current salary, but more insecure, take the job and live on 33% of the new job wages while paying down debt and saving/investing the rest. You can find an equivent crappy job again in the future, but you may also conquer a new job market for yourself.

I do this virtually with a piece od software called barrier. https://github.com/debauchee/barrier

Only if they can all simultaneously execute the cooperation strategy of the Prisoner's Dilema. Meanwhe every corporation that defects gets to pick from the pool of remote workers with _reduced_ competition from the corporations choosing the "cooperate" strategy.

Stackoverflow is like online gaming . Just mute/ignore the morons and jerks, and get on with you life. I've received a ton of hate on SO, but I've also received so many answers to questions that would have taken me at least a day to figure out on my own. Some angry dweeb launches a tirade at me, and some kind soul gives me an answer. Ignore the dweeb, go to lunch, ship the feature.

I'm an American and I've been the recipient of hate on SO too.

Shameless plug. See also https://mayhem4api.forallsecure.com

The rule I was taught growing up in USA was 15% and it was really only for sit down restaurants where waiters served you at your table.

Now, tipping in USA has metastasized, but I haven't changed. You want to play a guilt trip game after every business engagement? You'll lose against me. Tip for pouring a cup of drip coffee?---nah. Tip for making fast food? Nope. I will not enable the tip-everywhere culture.

Not writing for your audience is a losing game. They may have been fantastic developers, but the siren call of upper management may be what they think and speak now.

The irony with your comment about the Wheel of Time is that the _book_ very nearly was canceled... the writer died after taking a very long time to finish what he did, but then Brandon Sanderson stepped in and finished the series after the original author's death.

Their processes allow it. They simple have a process of saying, "processes don't allow it" until you notify them that they'll need to get the necessary waivers up the chain of command or you'll be working elsewhere shortly.

Like how Baltimore is a law abiding paradise?

A story like what you're describing is in the etymological history of the word "villain". The rich had villas outside the city and people who lived and/or were servants in a villa were villains. No judgement here, but interesting parallel.

If you use django rest framework, it's a subset that covers flask.

What is mint?

Police are people too. Just as Twitter employees were demoralized by Elon's behavior and it effected everything they did, so are police officers effected by morale. Traffic stops can escalate very quickly, but why do it when no one has your back?

Floyd riots and defund the police. If your DA and politicians won't stand behind you, cops retreat to the donut/coffee shop. Completely logical response.

Moral aspersions aside, dumb they aint.

I'd love to be half as stupid as the majority of landlords I know in my local landlord association who speak highly of RDPD.

I think it is more, "rich people buy assets and poor people buy liabilities."

Almost every successful real estate person I have contact with thinks very highly of RDPD. If you listen to real estate podcasts, almost everyone recommends RDPD. I agree it is light on many details, but many people seem to get a great deal out of that book.

It's incredibly intuitive. An adult soccer field is 1.8 acres and a foot is... the size of a man's foot. I can visualize this volume. Meanwhile, an acre foot is 1283 m^3. I don't have intuition for that volume measurement.
