I don’t really see the issue with that one. Most of my staff have commitments outside of work that require them to take certain days off or start/finish late during parts of the year. As long as they advise these things in advance, you can just schedule around it.

Also, if you have enough work on that you need more staff, even a part-timer still reduces the total workload on everyone else.

What lazy scripts are leaving stuff behind in /tmp when they finish with it? It should be cleared out by whatever process put it there.

I thought they already did this? Wasn’t that their justification for killing integrated SMS?

Outside of Unix based programs, probably not a lot.

In terms of their functionality most programs are standalone applications rather than tools where you modify the programming flow of the data.

If they do no push back, then they are just kicking the can down the road, at great expense to themselves. This is exactly the sort of pushback needed to get bambu to walk back their push towards a walled garden.

Just drop the anit-cheat requirement and let is handle cheating directly, with vote-to-kick, like we did back in the day.

Get a dog. Always happy to see you when you get home, will pester you relentlessly into moderate excercise, #1 wingman for meeting friends or significant others.

Dont commit to a course of study unless you are following your passion, or have a realistic plan to monetise the skills you get out of it.

Even if university is cheap/free in your region, the opportunity cost is steep. You will spend the next 3-5 years on subsistence wages, and come out the other end with very few practical skills beyond those of your specific area of study.

As cliché as it may sound, take a year off and bum around the world doing casual/seasonal labour while you figure out where you actually want to end up, because no-one else can define your future.

English actualy did have terms for that, they just got a bit bastardised with “yea” and “nay” dropping out of common speech:

Will they not go? — Yes, they will.

Will they not go? — No, they will not.

Will they go? — Yea, they will.

Will they go? — Nay, they will not.

At the risk of sounding like stack overflow, do you need to print such large parts? As a general rule I try to make multiple small parts that are then attached together rather than going for single parts that are very big or complex.

If you mess up a couple of placements or tolerances, or your print fails, it’s much quicker to reprint just that portion.

For me it’s the amount of debugging it takes to get new games to run. Most games these days come with some sort of third party launcher or drm that takes a lot of work to kill in order to get them running.

I just spent 12 hours debugging because of shitty-closed source software that i have to work around, i dont want to do it again.

If you learn the timings, and choose the right route, you can hit green lights all night. Back when I had a job which finished up around 2am, I managed to travel ~15km across the city without hitting a red light, probably 2/3 of the time.

Why not replace the dc-dc converter? Seems like a much simpler fix.

When will it be commercially available though? Supposedly Seagate has had 30TB drives out for the better part of a year, but I can’t find anything larger than 24TB actually available for purchase.

Most hardrives live in servers, as part of storage volumes where IO can be optimised well beyond the capability of a single disk.

For the boot disk on my workstation I am absolutely using an SSD, but for the hundreds of terabytes of largely static data that I need to keep archived? Spinning disks all the way. Not only to SSDs need to match on price, but they also have a long way to come in terms of longevity.

We already did this unintentionally during our natural evolution. All we really got out of it were a group of humans who can run slightly faster on average, and a group of humans who can drink milk as adults without shitting themselves.

I imagine the timeframe to get any noticable results would be in the thousands of years, even with deliberate selection for specific genes.

Linux, most likely.

In the majority of cases, its still going to be stuck under a mangled car that you cant move because it is on fire. A better solution might be to route multiple ‘flood tubes’ to the battery compartment and place them in easy accessible places. That way you would just need to pop pff an access panel and hook up a hose.

The trick is to justify buying one for your business, and then using it yourself after hours.

As a business asset, it has paid for itself fivefold in less than a year. As an employee of said business, i have unlimited access to a machine that I could never personally justify the expense of.
