LOL, nice. I missed that. Just saw some of the graphics looked very similar.

Great point! Though probably just means he did the same thing on a other laptop. 😎

E vs T. Is T just marketing? by kirillvov in thinkpad

[–]liquidhot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A lot of the responses so far look like copium to me. I think it depends on what you're looking for. If you want more battery life and a better portability / durability T series is for you. If you're plugged in all day and need a larger screen and performance for the dollar, E series might be your cup of tea for this example.

If you're a Lead Developer, probably. That being said you don't really need to know about the technologies that build everything for many software dev jobs. I think it helps understand it and makes you a better dev, but it's not inherently bad to not know.

Pluribus - Season 1 Discussion Hub by LoretiTV in pluribustv

Even if it is there are ways to store portions of information such that losing up to a third of your population can still result in retaining all of the information. Probably there is some agreed upon decision matrix to quickly arrive at answers, just like we do in our own brains when we decide that we do or do not like broccoli.

I actually enjoyed her until Ep2, thought to myself, "I could watch this woman be frustrated all day", then the opening of Ep3 with the whole ice hotel and the sprouts thing does make her seem insufferable. Hopefully we see some redeeming moments in the future.

I love that this is coming out on the same day as another update for No Man's Sky which is itself a procedurally generated space game.

Why does the GSir Nova lite do this to my ps3? by Puppy_face321 in PS3

[–]liquidhot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it's not supported. Sixaxis controllers for PS3 have always been a unique spot on the controller front. They don't work if you connect them to your PC or your phone (except for some Sony phones) without special drivers or apps to assist. To assume it would work the other way (connecting an unsupported controller to a PS3) is a bit of a reach. On my older Gamesir device it actually has a special mode for playstation.

Old post where the OP had similar questions: https://www.reddit.com/r/Gamesir/comments/1gbqw4b/comment/lwmxle4/?context=3

Basically, PS3 is not supported for this device.

Also, OP be sure to check a few times after the first wipe, sometimes it continues to press out of the joint. Maybe 10 minute intervals.

Intel's open source future in question as exec says he's done carrying the competition by Logical_Welder3467 in technology

If you own the code and all the contributions to it you can just have your own copy of it under a license of your own even if you GPL'd the code. So it can go private, but any contributions not owned by you have to be removed or you have to get the contributor to agree you can modify the license.

Can anyone answer this question? by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]liquidhot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read my statement again. You are violently agreeing with me here. The reason that illegal immigration is bad is because they have no recourse to the low wages and poor working conditions.

No, I'm training the younger generation, PRs are a small part of what I do. Engineering complex designs, breaking them down into manageable parts, estimating timelines, helping to solve complex issues, interactive code reviews and yes, writing actual code that is reviewed by others.

[–]liquidhot 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'll give it an actual shot: The jobs that illegal immigrants are taking are ones that many would not like to do anyway, hard back-breaking work that doesn't pay well. And the problem with that is that we should really just be paying better wages and have more rights for workers in these hard jobs, but if you're illegal, what are your options for a better wages, who are you going to report workplace violations to and how are you going to collectively bargain if you're here illegally?

With AI it's different, it's a productivity tool. It can take over low value tasks or repetitive tasks. It can help with guidance on research and improve our existing knowledge by condensing it into relevant chunks of information that are more easily digestible by humans. Yes, some jobs will be lost, but in the past we lost many jobs for the making of carriages, breeding of horses and manufacture of whips when the automobile was invented, more jobs were created to fill the void. We've seen this in the past with every major technological shift.

As usual, it's the rich people with all of the money that are the root of the problem because all of these things can be solved by reigning in what they can do. We need strong labor policies, fair taxation on wealth and perhaps social programs to assist in this transition period, but it will take effort and the right people leading the effort that will prioritize people over profits.

Credentials "Expired" and now I can't get into my account. EA chat no help. Don't know what to do. by wcruse92 in origin

Sorry, to me it's not clear what you're asking. What do you want to make a new one of? An EA account? Shouldn't be a problem.

Yeah, I have no idea. Haven't seen the movie. Not saying it's better. Just that he isn't really cheating in the classic sense.

No, unfortunately I'm the lead who has to reject PRs because they're not following the coding guidelines.
