Re:A farewell to Arc browser

I guess I don't know. To be fair I didn't use Arc much since I was mostly on Linux. And haven't used it in maybe a year or so.

They will also take you down a road you didn't want to go down at a breakneck speed too. And you don't realize you didn't want to go down that road. Sure once you figure out you didn't want that it is quick to go back and start again, but how many times do you need to do that until you get where you wanted to be? Are you really saving time in the end?

I once got a cold LinkedIn message that got me a job that I loved. When I was looking this year though it did NOT have the same results. Lots of bots and just recruiters who see a open to work and just add you out of no where with nothing. I did get help from people I actually know on LinkedIn, but other than that it was definitely not helpful in the job search.

No doubt there are highly skilled engineers there, but saying "those" might be a stretch. It is possible someone there has worked on an SR-71A, but it last flew 27 years ago. It was originally introduced 60 years ago. A lot of the knowledge about this plane has most likely unfortunately passed on. That isn't to say people can't learn, but it is a tougher starting point. Honestly, almost like starting over I would guess.

I have already basically removed any extensions I had installed. There are still a couple, but I am going to remove those as well. Except maybe a web search one as that is something I use often. Going to remove all skills and anything else as well. I am a simple man when it comes to agent programming.

But couldn't a bunch of posts that are just coming here to lift up one of Elon's products also be counter productive? You can never tell if someone is genuine when reviewing a product he put out. I think that is a big problem as well.

Someone did though. Otherwise they wouldn't have created FilePilot. I have never had issues with any file manager in Linux. Explorer on the other hand is annoying as heck. Of course I am not picky with a file manager as I rarely use it on Linux anyway.

But highly processed refined carbohydrates are sugar as well. Or at least converted to glucose. We are told, however, that carbs are part of the balanced diet. While that is true the right kind of carbs are important. So people think they are being healthy while loading themselves up with poor quality carbs that are in fact quite unhealthy.

Re:The Framework Laptop Chromebook Edition
on Wednesday September 21, 2022 @03:06PM (#32929919)
I mean isn't that a fair question all around? Why pay more for a high end laptop when you can just buy a cheap chromebook? The myth that ChromeOS is just a web browser is just that a myth. It can do so much more. Some people like a high end laptop, but also prefer the safety and security that ChromeOS provides. I owned a Pixelbook and loved it. Honestly still miss it. I would absolutely buy another high end ChromeOS device.

What if my surgeon went to med school and was top of class, but had an attending who insisted on using the wrong tools? Or there was another surgeon on the team who created the "architecture" for a brain surgery, but for some reason in order to get to the brain they went through the chest. There can be many reasons for unreliable and buggy software that are completely unrelated to the developer.
Re:Ask HN: Should I move to California or Germany as a SWE with 2 smal...
on Tuesday June 07, 2022 @10:18AM (#31654679)
I cannot speak to Germany or California, but I can speak to being close to family. I know that has been invaluable to my wife and I. We were only 4.5 hours away when we first had our kids, but it seemed like a million miles. It was hard not having support or even just to drop the kids with family to run an errand or go to an appointment. After being back it is just amazing to have family close. Having that love, help and support will ease a lot of burdens. Even in a small village remote work should be an option. I would assume (but obviously don't know) that a small village in Germany has a lower cost of living than California so you should still be able to build wealth if you both get decent jobs. Just remember money isn't everything, and having family close will ease many of those burdens.
