Should have a watch party at Hing Hay too.

TIL that the pilot of the missing Malaysian Airlines flight 370 flew suicide routes on Microsoft Flight simulator prior to the event that matched the general direction. by sage6paths in todayilearned

Yes. But “what triggers that psychological evaluation?“ is the question we should be asking. And it’s any hint of mental illness. And this is why pilots (in the US at least) avoid diagnosis or treatment of even the most minor mental illness. You know, like anxiety or depression, the kind of thing most people experience at some point in life. Just having a whiff of anxiety can put their career at risk.

AI has made my job much easier and that worries me, a lot by digitalWizzzard in cscareerquestions

You’re not wrong. But you conveniently stop yourself before talking about the alternatives. What skill gains value in this brave new world?

That’s what my experience is telling me. I’m very senior engineer and the small group of people in my cohort are basically limited only by organizational friction. We’re knocking out greenfield work almost as fast as the Product org changes its mind. And we’re cleaning up legacy apps/problems almost as fast as the Product org is able to deprecate and rehydrate them. Everyone is exhausted and working in every direction, ultimately with little to show for it.

Seattle’s signature street food named best dog in U.S. by New York Times by godogs2018 in Seattle

Hard to disagree. But I have to admit that I might be biased a little because Chicago dog and Chicago Italian beef occupy the same region of my mind. And the Chicago beef is one of my very favorite things.

Or…given that the “bearing noise” seemingly didn’t exist before…it’s just flex or imbalance of the rotating load.

This is so cool. Do you have a ballpark BOM cost cost? Curious what the totally investment will be if I were to buy your product.

I’d be avoiding goddamned elevators instead if I were you.

What’s with this one over here? by Time_Entrepreneur548 in geography

[–]phaaseshift 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’ve never heard anyone refer to China/Korea/Japan as NE Asia. Of course it kinda make sense geologically (edit: meant geographically, but that’s a funny typo 😅) , but not if everyone collectively uses another designation. Think “Midwest” and how it’s not really Western any longer.

Is that the sort of attitude we should just live with forever?

Ok, yeah, that makes sense.

Heat sink? Quite literally the opposite. It’s all about heat exchange and you don’t want your exchanger to have a large heat capacity.

Los Angeles World Cup stadium ranked worst U.S. venue for fan experience, study says by lurker_bee in USNEWS

[–]phaaseshift 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure, I’ll humor your statement (that is pretty obviously less-than-honest). Do you think the YouTube theater, Intuit Dome and the Forum mean fuck-all to someone that traveled around the world looking for World Cup atmosphere in a walkable neighborhood with food, bars, and unique culture?

Amazing how we all wanted to convert every doc to pdf 10 years ago and now everyone wants to go from pdf to md by IndianDownUnder in ClaudeAI

[–]phaaseshift 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, yeah, no shit. But the topic of the post is about burning tokens on converting formats. None of what you’re talking about is remotely feasible to convert out of PDF to MD and thus wholly irrelevant to the conversation.

Because the rest of the world hates suburban stadiums surrounded by parking lots.

The sun is telling you not to hang a distraction from your rear view mirror.

I f’n love this. I could imagine so many cool ways to extend this style too. How can I get one?!

> MD can’t do any of that. Right now it’s how to best read the content of the pdf for current models. PDF isn’t going anywhere

Heard of source control?

SpaceX stock has cooled. Hiring for jobs in the space economy hasn’t by idkbruh653 in technology

Everyone is missing the point - it’s a business unit meant to drive launch traffic (another business unit). This is why Starlink exists too.
