There are - a sort of tracked vehicle with an arm that can chop down a tree, hold it, and scrape off the small limbs before stacking the log.

Yeah, that’s the talk!

To be generous, sometimes how one feels in the moment is different than how one feels when given time to reflect. So it may be that your boss really does appreciate it (just not right then).

Reminds me of the hiring committee at Google that rejected their own packets (with the names changed).

That works in a world where everyone is technically competent, but oddly many people applying to software positions are, optimistically, planning to learn on the job. Work with enough folks like that at once and the motivation for the coding interview becomes clear.

TDP is arbitrary, they actually calculate it with arbitrary constants that change per chip. So it is meaningless at this point.

Whitey Bulger was wanted for that and worse.

He lived in Santa Monica for years.

Yeah, I was responding to the point about cost. A courier driving for 4 hours to get to me probably cost them at least 500$

I once had my check bag lost and it arrived a couple of months later via a courier. This was in ‘08

Nah, kerbal panels are smart enough to pivot around

There's the obvious - you are now lighter and so less work is being done to move your body.

C worked for the last fifty years or so, I think it has staying power for the next five.

But more seriously, just keep learning stuff. New languages, systems, tools, whatever grabs your interest.

A couple of examples:

Using RAG on a set of docs for a project it's possible to get good answers to specific questions (and ask follow ups, etc) - really speeds up understanding, like having someone who knows their stuff answering questions for you all the time.

Making meeting notes, summarizing discussions - frees the note taker and produces a nice record of what happened.

This is pretty common, I can taste even very small amounts as a soapy flavor. I think it’s genetic, a chef I met once said they take a test for it in school so they know for sure but if you have it there’s really no doubt. Fwiw celery tastes good to me so they are probably unrelated phenomena.

If dollars are even still a thing

It’s an illusion, the larger an object is the slower it seems to be moving. It’s pretty strong if you see a wide body jet or old bomber fly by at low altitude.

Something with zero configuration?

Yeah, just watch out for things like water permits.

What? It was only for Linux.

I think pair programming is way better remote, when you can share screens.

They did add official support for the latest gen rdna cards to rocm.

I’ve seen wireless CarPlay connectivity problems in certain locations which makes me think there’s interference there and I’m driving through it.

Checking the census data for 2022 there were at least 2 people moving to TX from CA for each person moving to CA from TX.

But it was only 40k vs 100k, which is pretty minor compared to the total populations (~30-40m).

The property taxes might be lower on average due to the artificial cap placed on them there, but that doesn't apply if you move there and buy as that resets the calculation.

Look at where the sats dwell, mostly over the North Pole. Now think about the great circle routes between the USA and the USSR.

Didn’t Google buy Motorolas mobile phone business to get the patents?

It was useful for some old games where the frame rate was tied to the cpu frequency.

No, but if you operate enough golf courses you better be ready for the eventuality.

Try it as the insane vampire, it’s great.
