Voltages drop in the cold, and the middle of the night is usually the coldest. So that's why this is probably not far from reality.

If it makes the people paying taxes feel happy then I don't see why not.

I wish this wasn't so true.

Better yet you can configure gitignore globally for git. I do this mostly to avoid polluting repo ignore files with my editor specific junk but *.key and similar can help prevent accidents.

Right, but AI is not the only way they're doing the data collection.

It's cool, it's probably just self extracting. For convenience!

It's promotion-driven development at its finest.

It probably won't be profitable in rural areas to begin with.

But not from a knowledge engine. It makes sense if some rando just spouted off a date from the top of their head but this is the former world leader in knowledge capture and search.

Fair enough! I definitely read this around the time 5g was coming around but apparently I was misinformed.

IIRC, 5g is a much nicer generation for the carriers than for consumers. It can be more easily deployed with microcells on light poles vs requiring the tall cell towers. There's ultra-wideband, which is definitely faster, but plain 5g is roughly the same, just easier to roll out.

 

For a search company I can't believe how terrible the Android app search is. I can't even search "bank" for my banking apps, and there doesn't really seem to be any metadata except for the title that goes into the search. Which is absolutely ridiculous given how many companies name their apps something cReAtIvE like "home" or "Resideo" or "Smart Hq." I just want to search GE for the damn GE app. Or "thermostat" for Resideo. Surely there's something beyond surface level here because obviously this is an extensively solved problem. How is there not metadata or description searching at minimum? My only guess is fear of abuse but Google has definitely dealt with that for their entire existence and up until recently, managed to handle it fine.

Sources say the decision was made by how long interns spent in each editor. In fact, it appears the vim users simply never exited once they opened the program, presumably because they found it so productive.

She legitimately said "he seemed well adjusted." After telling me he looked a lot like me 15 years ago.

 
 

I just wanted to binge on some Skittles like it's 1995.

I just want some abs at least once in my life.
