I enjoy hiking and bake at home, both maybe cause dust like matter to destroy a very expensive device.

A foldable costs more than my laptop and tablet combined. While being less resilient and less capable.
I’m not going to pay premium for a device that will break if it get exposed to dust.
I will pay premium for durability, fixability, modularity and for gnu/Linux that mobile device that can interface with android apps that society forces me to use.
After the shit they pulled with the Nokia 9 PureView, how can someone bet money on their crap?
I don’t see a reduced number of CS students that enjoy poking around. I see an increase in the number of students that are there only for the good salary. Making the poking type into a smaller percentage.
Bioinformatics isn’t used only for medical research or within big companies. Sub-topics like metagenomics, that are helpful in many areas of research, require high level of technical knowledge, that the life science people don’t have.
You can work in bioinformatics, the pay is lower than FAANG, but your code will benefit society.
They are not limiting their foot print to 1/4 acre. They are using bikes, using glass and forge the forest.
It’s like offloading your aluminum production to another country and claiming you are living 100% on renewable.
The current Iranian government raised up after a revolution led by Marxists and Islamists. After they dropped the previews government, the Islamists turned on the Marxists. This is why we have pictures of secular society from 50 years ago taken in Iran.
I don’t know, I assume, the Marxists got manipulated again now along with far left.
Russia already managed to organize both pro and anti demonstrations inside the US to get USA citizens to kill each other on other topics.
No reason to think people’s critical thinking was upgraded.
In addition to other comments,read about Ada Lovelace. She was brilliant, she wrote the first program, and done so before we had computers!
It is being done remotely, no need for USB.
You should sandbox your phone and assume the government may know everything that goes in it.
Pegasus and the like already shown it can be entered with no click zero days.
I really don’t get it, I moved to NixOS some years ago. Okay, first few months I had to fiddle with configurations and add some packages that were missing. Everything past those early months was a blast.
Replacing a dead laptop? The most time consuming part (for me) is making a bootable USB. After that I can push my already ready made configuration and just back to where I was (backs ups are important).
Working on different versions of Python? No problem, a small nix script for each environment.
Working with different versions of GCC? Same as Python.
Everything just works. And if I fuck around I can revert the change. I can easily experiment in a way that will no fuck affect my ability to work.
At work we have Ubuntu, and I got the conclusion that nuking Canonical’s offices will be a blessing on humanity. They manage to deliver broken packages for years, even packages that work well on Debian.
If I’m reading their CEOspeak right, their objective is to fire the very experienced people, that costs a lot of money, and replace them with people that costs less.
I never worked at Google, so I don’t know for sure, but it sounds like the Python team is important and that this will backfire. As the people that costs less will also be less skilled, and Python is an important piece for AI/ML research, where Google is already lagging behind. The AI people in Google will get lower quality help with Python, and Google will lag even further behind.
That what happens when the CEO is an MBA and not an engineer.
It’s June/July temps in mid April here. Messed the plant life and bird migration around here.
Where did I say they shouldn’t?
My message comes within a context.
Improvements in storage allow for longer transportation. This is but one example.
There are many other improvements, from more efficient water usage to reducing the need for other costly interventions.
Some may be possible to allow richer agriculture in poorer areas, reducing the need for distribution.
Pegasus, and probably other tools, can infect phones through ads. Google’s ads network is a weapon.
Your comment is unrelated what-so-ever to what I wrote.
Partial documentation combined with complex code will be great for your bank account.
Code fast, and badly, always under promise and over deliver. Before the shit hits the fan, move to another place.
Next person after you will take the blame. You may be hired again at premium as you can deliver. Blame the replacement Dev for breaking the code and causing a lot of damage.
Fix the little that is possible, at premium rate and move on.
