I don't listen to podcasts, but I know people listen to them in during their commute.

In fact, I am surprised someone with kids and little free time considers Youtube an integral part of life. I watch an average of 2 videos a week, usually skipping most of them. Mostly DIY guides.

Maybe I will subscribe once my kids are in age to watch educational videos, but even then, I am pretty sure I will prefer Curiosity Stream, which I trust waaay more than Youtube for kid-friendly content.

And it doesn't happen just with software development, both as individual customer and employee I have cut ties with companies of all kinds after they lost their most valuable employee and the replacements would need years(if ever) to provide equivalent service. Probably most people have done this after service greatly degraded without being able to pinpoint it to an specific employee (e.g. the cook in a restaurant).

Unless you hate the recent push for diversity, you will probably like it. I loved the scenarios and music, and really liked Galadriel's acting. I was only taken aback by the apparent slow pacing (but other people might perceive it differently). 8/10, would recommend. For reference, I'd rate LOTR 9/10 and the Hobbit film trilogy 5/10.

Me: Are renewable energy sources better than fossil fuels?

ChatGPT: Renewable energy sources, such as solar, wind, and hydroelectric power, have several potential advantages over fossil fuels, which are non-renewable sources of energy such as coal, oil, and natural gas.

One potential advantage of renewable energy sources is that they are generally considered to be more environmentally friendly than fossil fuels. Many renewable energy sources do not produce greenhouse gases or other pollutants when they are used, which can help to reduce the negative impact on the environment. Renewable energy sources can also help to reduce reliance on fossil fuels, which are a finite resource and are expected to eventually run out.

However, it is important to note that renewable energy sources are not always better than fossil fuels in all situations. For example, some renewable energy sources may not be practical or cost-effective in certain locations, and fossil fuels may still be necessary to meet energy demand in these cases. Additionally, the development and implementation of renewable energy technologies can have environmental impacts, such as land use and habitat destruction, that should be carefully considered.

Ultimately, the decision of whether to use renewable energy sources or fossil fuels should be based on a variety of factors, including the availability and cost of the different energy sources, as well as the environmental and social impacts of each. It is generally considered that a mix of energy sources is the most effective and sustainable approach to meeting energy needs.

My guess is that most processed raw honey is not as good (or even bad), but those (robinia and clover) might be better than the rest. Still, I would rather get unprocessed robinia/clover honey rather than their processed variants.

Though in my opinion you assign way too much credit to a CEO of three companies that apparently spends most of his time on social media and being offended.

The only thing I dislike is the yearly performance review (I really really hate boasting about my achievements), but I heard all the large tech companies are like this, so I probably will have to deal with them for the rest of my career.

For now, however, I would prefer a video of the many interviews he takes instead of quotes of people that have a lot to gain from praising Elon (and a lot to lose if they criticized him). Is there any quote from any of the people in that thread that paint Elon in a bad light? I know for sure there are many things bad Elon, from his direct actions. Do they ever comment on that or would they lose their livelihood within a day if they did?

Though I don't think thermal cameras will be user affordable for a long while.

What do you think is the future (+2 years) for people with hatred for ads? For now I am using Firefox on computer + Kiwi in Android, but I also expect those two to go awry in the mid term.

* I see that after the edit, it doesn't look as bleak for Firefox PC. But what about Android?

Maybe in the best case your life in CA is going to be somewhat easier/better (huge career success, lots of money, all kind of experiences for your kids). But in all the outcomes in the middle, specially the worse ones, Germany is going to be so much better, giving it a huge lead on the average future timeline.

There was an attempt, called "Spellsworn", which flopped very hard. Battlerite was also somewhat similar, but more cluttered and degraded very quickly.

It doesn't even have to be fantasy-based, in fact, I would like even more a successor to Comet Busters versus mode.

iPhone's filesystem API is extremely limited, so I would not be surprised if there is no way to create a torrent file.

Hard to tell which way it will go, but for my sake as a non-homeowner, I hope there is a huge house price crash that significantly outpaces (or at least matches) company valuations.

These are individual contributors with 10 years of experience.

These same engineers were getting paid 50k 3 years ago, but the current job market (and I guess, competition from remote work) increased wages that much.

Adjusting for cost of living, I would say that very close to SF.

The company you work for, once they track the code back to you, will investigate you to make sure you did not make profit on it.

According to this, 9% of the population in Dublin are software developers. By comparison, London seems to be at 7.7% according to the same metric.
