And, here I am with my 2012 macbook pro, still thinking if its worth upgrading.

Niche idea. I will give it a go.

Haha, [leaves rustling] I will ask her.

On a similar note, I have friends who watches TV Series and Movies before they come out to create/review the subtitles. Sounds like fun job but gets boring really fast.

Interesting project, good luck.

Are you saying that other manufacturers don't do this?

Malodextrin is used in energy gels. There was a article about ultra athletes having higher incidence of colorectal cancer. Hopefully more research comes out.

Wow melbourne is getting that bad! Does your org have a name?

Working on going sub 20 min 5K. It's hard but I am enjoying the challenge.

Most companies want to see outcomes quickly. They will always go for tried and tested solutions. Why would they risk building something on their own? There will be a threshold where companies are too small and the software is too expensive to buy, so they will go for something small that they build themselves. At scale, it will get harder and harder to maintain the solution themselves and they'd rather spend time focussing on their core business than to maintaining their in-house software.

I was surprised to see Seven hills as well lol.

My mac of 13 years is running fine..except I am unable to update the OS because Apple has set limitations on the upgrading OS with old hardware. I will probably end up buying a new mac until I can see a good Linux ecosystem.

A friend who is also in the same situation is however going to Surface Pros. He swears its on par with Mac on hardware.

Isn't this the same as that filter on tiktok?

Is there a way to estimate gravity on remote planets? Wouldn't the mass of this body, which is six times larger than Earth rule out the habitability?

Interesting that it actually guessed as the neighbouring country. I live close to the border but have never interacted with the people across. Wonder if there might be similarities in tone and inflection.

A few things that worked for us:

1. The roster is set weekly. You need at least 4-5 engineers so that you get rostered not more than once per month. Anything more than that and you will get your engineers burned out.

2. There is always a primary and secondary. Secondary gets called up in cases when primary cannot be reached.

3. You are expected to triage the issues that comes during your on-call roster but not expected to work on long term fixes. that is something you have to bring to the team discussion and allocate. No one wants to do too much off maintenance work.

4. Your top priorities to work on should be issues that come up repeatedly and burn your productivity. This could take upto a year. Once things settle down, your engineers should be free enough to work in things that they are interested in.

5. For any cross team collaboration that takes more than a day, the manager should be the point of contact so that your engineers don't get shoulder tapped and get pulled away from things that they are working on.

Hope this helps.

The low heart rate pattern is not exclusive to skiers. They are seen in elite athletes across all endurance sports. I wonder if the actual issue comes from performing in very cold climate.

Probably lost a chance to license them to Apple for a good sum.

Feels like early 2010s all over again. Are people still buying wallpapers and ringtones? I didn't even know there was a market for it.

I do a skin prick test every year and make sure I update allergens. It takes about 6 months to see the results and whole treatment could take upto 3-5 years. I took a break from the treatment during covid and the allergies came back. So it is important to get monthly shots.

Wow that is really good to hear. I am on immunotherapy for a different type of allergy and can't stop talking about its effectiveness. It has been life changing.

When Fuchsia first came out, I was interested to go deep dive into it and be an early adopter/contributor. Good that I did not put in my time investment. There is always a risk with new projects but with Google there seems to be a longer wait and watch phase before you really double down on the project.

I wonder how F-35 compares to J-35 in terms of stealth. From the new generation of fighter jets coming out, looks like all the armaments are being loaded in internal bays. Interesting that all these designs are starting to converge and look very similar.

Looks like, the race is on , to start harvesting minerals from the moon.There are still big challenges like sourcing water and setting up base camps to start with but if we can deploy mining machines, this could be a gamechanger.

Looking forward to what Mitchell does next. I have always enjoyed reading his code, a fantastic role model.
