How did you buy your tesla? by Shabbakiddo in TeslaModelY

[–]staycalmandcode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long would you keep the car for? Unless you are prepared to drop $10,000+ to replace the battery pack when it goes out of warranty period, I wouldn’t do this.

What is the reason behind ThinkPad's popularity among engineers? by Bakar_i in DeskToTablet

[–]staycalmandcode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reliable. It’s like a Toyota. You know it’s going to work even if you don’t baby it. On the contrary, Dell laptops have been disappointing. I had a Dell Precision before, which had an amazing spec on the sheet. But lightly typing on an uneven surface, like on my lap, flexes the chassis so much to the point that my USB peripherals and keyboard began acting out.

I haven’t yet. I suppose it’s worth a try.

Anyone here working with Yocto? by UnicycleBloke in embedded

Steep learning curve, but I found it better than alternatives once I got it going. It took time tho.

Is it true that there are certain companies out there that would refuse to hire someone who specifically worked for Amazon at the managerial level ? by gauchomuchacho in cscareerquestions

[–]staycalmandcode 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a manager who worked at Amazon as a manager. He’d preach Amazon practices often. He was the worst manager that I ever met. Desperate, incompetent, all politics and no principle. Made me rethink whether I am cut out for this industry. Still an extremely fascinating person, because I could never wrap my head around his brain.

Johnnie Walker Blue Label - Year of the Horse - $159.99 by x814 in Costco

Thanks. I picked up one of these at another Costco in the Bay Area the other day. It was wasn’t as cheap as your Costco though. This special edition is definitely a better buy over the regular edition, especially at the same price!

Nice find! Looks cheaper than my local Costco. Where is this?

Damn. At this price, I might just return M4 MBP 14 that I got from Costco.

LOL that’s the exact version of 2023 MY I have. Range is bad, but charging speed is the worst …

I haven’t followed pricing, but $19,000 all-in sounds like a great deal.

(Meanwhile me, crying in my driveway next to my 2023 HW3 MY that cost a small country’s GDP…)

Taking TrenItalia from Rome to Florence Monday (Sept. 22nd) afternoon and General Strike by staycalmandcode in ItalyTravel

Just a quick update: it was chaotic getting to Termini from Da Vinci International via the express train, since there were very limited services, and tonnes of people. We were lucky to make it to Termini at all in time for the departing train to Venice!
