Nimitz14··on I Lost All Faith in LastPass
Hopefully this will stop the replies to comments complaining about stupid password rules: "Just use a password manager". Why would you ever trust someone else with something like this?
Nimitz14··on John Carmack Leaves Meta
Changing the source instead of adding an edit would make previous comments that were asking about the unclear part not make sense anymore.

The 5% figure is kinda shocking, that’s why he put a number. And it’s I think why people appreciate him, because he gets specific instead if writing a vague statement like “pain of seeing an application waste resources”.

I really don’t understand how it can be unclear that 5% is bad.

The thing that was actually unclear was people not understanding it was analogy for organizational effectiveness.

Nimitz14··on An experimental program in Austria that creates work for the unemployed
You're talking to a russian. Your bullshit doesnt work on me.
Nimitz14··on Getting Started with Tmux
In roles like research it happens that one spends tons of time on the command line. It's normal for me to have spent more time in a week running commands in the terminal than writing code.

> In the USSR life expectancy went from 30 years in 1925 to 69 years in 1990[0]. On the other hand, in the US it started declining in 2015 without having recovered yet[1].

What a nonsensical comparison. Lol.

> I have yo ask you, what you do mean by "conditions of the people"?

Probably talking about the fact that the situation got so bad Gorbachev initiated such major reforms that the USSR collapsed. No biggie. Lol.

Nimitz14··on Telegram: No-SIM Signup, Auto-Delete All Chats, Topics 2.0 and more
They do not sell your data.
Nimitz14··on The Twitter Files
There is absolutely nothing new here. Work on your reading comprehension.
Nimitz14··on Ask HN: Alternatives to The Economist?
The writing here is so pathetically dramatic I suggest you wait a decade or so before recommending an article again.
Nimitz14··on Meta lays off 11,000 people
Gas as in fuel. Are you being deliberately dense?

Anyways you're changing the topic now. Glad I could help you understand how the ukraine war affected the US economy. Good day.

Nimitz14··on Meta lays off 11,000 people
Gas prices. I'm perplexed that you somehow missed the connection.
Nimitz14··on Twitter’s mass layoffs have begun
Telegram is also a microblogging service. With far more users.

It's clear you are totally clueless about how many features telegram has.

Nimitz14··on Why Tesla removed radar and ultrasonic sensors [video]
You don't understand the term entropy.
Nimitz14··on How the U.K. Became One of the Poorest Countries in Western Europe
I see 61k for male and 51k for female for fulltime workers (median)?
Nimitz14··on How the U.K. Became One of the Poorest Countries in Western Europe
Talking with a colleague (while in the UK) I remember us agreeing that the UK felt distinctly behind other WE countries. The quality is often lacking.
Nimitz14··on The end of Apple’s affair with China
Why don't you take a look at your link. Americans earn much more.
Nimitz14··on Bumble releases open-source A.I. feature to help combat unsolicited nudes
A close friend of mine kills it on tinder. He just has pics of himself looking good and smiling. He basically doesn't need to book a place to stay when going on holiday (lol). I would not put him in the top 5% (maybe top 10).

Your pics either sucked or you're not as attractive as you think you are. You don't need pics of yourself being rich. Or maybe you're older (he's 27).

Nimitz14··on Does cashless society discriminate against the poor and elderly? (2019)
Not all jobs are office jobs.
Nimitz14··on School vs. Wikipedia
Wikipedia is by definition a reference. If you want to learn something use different material. Trying to make wikipedia articles tutorials is out of scope (not that it isn't nice to get practical examples for concepts, which ime there often are!)
Nimitz14··on Cloud desktops aren't as good as you'd think
Under 100ms feels immediate. More doesnt.
Nimitz14··on Why are nuclear power construction costs so high? Part III – the nuclear navy
Please share more information. What subsidies existed for nuclear?
Nimitz14··on Jack Dorsey texts Elon Musk, March 26, 2022
That's just your uninformed opinion.
Nimitz14··on DALL·E Now Available Without Waitlist
Official repo is straightforward: https://github.com/CompVis/stable-diffusion

Have to admit just started looking into it, mb there are better options

Nimitz14··on Most US professors are trained at same few elite universities
I personally like it that not anyone can become a professor, it should be an elite position imo.
Nimitz14··on Java’s Cultural Problem
I'm worried about python also going in this direction. I see so many repos with the @property decorator everywhere for not a single good reason!
Nimitz14··on Nvidia Hopper Sweeps AI Inference Benchmarks in MLPerf Debut
I have never heard anybody use "x times faster" in the sense you mean here.

To my ears, "3 times faster" has the same meaning as "3 times as fast".

Nimitz14··on I patched my Slack client to keep “oops” messages others delete
Your opinion is just bizarre, as if editing chat messages to improve clarity is somehow a negative. Chat is not email. The point of chat is that it's fast and often a half-baked message is good enough.
Nimitz14··on IMDB deleted all negative user reviews for The Rings of Power
You have bad taste, sorry to inform you.
Nimitz14··on IMDB deleted all negative user reviews for The Rings of Power
Your opinion is an extremely rare one, if you weren't already aware. The consensus is the opposite.
Nimitz14··on Ask HN: Working as a software engineer for 5 years, I've forgotten all CS stuff
Your premise is incorrect.
Nimitz14··on Evaluation of TikTok vs. Instagram Reels
The gifs don't work on firefox.
