I guess I needed to specify that a phone should still be a phone.

I apologize for my overestimation.

FWIW - I consider “notifications” a harmful anti-pattern.

There is no day-to-day thing that requires a notification.

You are a fintech dev using floating point? And your advice is to encode things as strings?

…

This is why I got out of fintech.

(I am sorry, I know there are horrors and I am sure I am not familiar with your exact scenario.)

Edit: just for anyone who passes by: try to stick with integers in a currency’s smallest unit of division. (This is only one small bit of this problem, but the number of times I have seen currency values in floating point makea me psychotic.)

Have you … ever watched Blade Runner?

The cars might be, but their weights are their weights and that is an apples to apples comparison in the context of

And now to make lighter EVs that don’t wear on the road so much.

🤷‍♂️ I could spend that two hours with my kids.

You aren’t wrong, but as a community I think we should be listening carefully to the pain points and thinking about how we could make them better.

Gonna just stream of consciousness some stuff here:

Been thinking lately, especially as I have been self-hosting more, how much work is just managing data on disk.

Which disk? Where does it live? How does the data transit from here to there? Why isn’t the data moving properly?

I am not sure what this means, but it makes me feel like we are missing some important ideas around data management at personal scale.

There is no other battle shown in Star Trek to rival the time given to the one in Khan.

Off the top of my head there are incidences of ships being behind moons, in weird places they wouldn’t expect, etc. It’s just not a) discussed nearly as much on screen or b} shown on screen.

When we do see big battles, they are in 3d - Wolf 359 comes to mind.

I think you are correct that Khan is explicit and gives it a lot of punch, but I would argue we shouldn’t be too quick to say they almost never deal with 3d/zero g.

(who remembers Klingon’s blood is pink?)

And there are LOTS of examples of other ships uncloaking in non aligned positions.

I like this “starfleet policy is to make a best guess and align up when approaching” - borg cube presents particular problems.

As a cishet white male who dislikes Voyager, I would absolutely have enjoyed a clueless straight Tom Paris trying to set gay Harry up.

Instead he turned into a fish and kidnapped Janeway to, and I will be very gracious to the writing staff here, have consensual offspring with her.

Why did I tell myself I needed to watch that show? Worst trek. 😢

Edit: Also, good on Kate Mulgrew for being way more Star Trek than most by advocating for inclusion. I do like Janeway.

Can you elaborate a bit on your setup? As someone running Jellyfin, curious how you’ve configured everything.

I will die on the Enterprise theme song hill.

It’s been a long way…

As someone who watched it with no nostalgia glasses: it is not good trek.

I can’t think of a really outstanding episode off the top of my head (maybe the Tuvix one? But even that is just … rough?). And there are some episodes in there that I actively dislike in a way I don’t with most of the other series.

I like Kate Mulgrew, she was a strong actor for the role and the theme is a banger, otherwise … meh.

Hans Gruber, The Sheriff of Nottingham and Severus Snape would all, collectively, be interested in that conversation as well.

Google is well known to do A/B testing, meaning you might not get a particular response (or even whole sets of results generated via different algorithms they are testing) even if your neighbor searches for the same thing.

So again, I ask how your anecdotal evidence somehow invalidates other anecdotal evidence? If your evidence isn’t anecdotal, I am very interested in your results.

Otherwise, what you’re saying has the same or less value than the example.

How would you expect to recreate them when the models are given random perturbations such that the results usually vary?

… does this work with the Republican base?

is there a Republican base anymore?

Is it a MAGA base now?

I’m confused about who’s who.

My brother in business, I see you.

Once had to ask why the only woman our team was making significantly less. Got a shrug back from the HR director, a woman. I couldn’t believe that I had to fight her to bring compensation in line.

It’s not JUST the billionaires that are the problem. It’s really all the people that need to feel they’re somehow above others.

I use Tidal. It may not be much better than Spotify, but it’s better than Spotify.

How is this not a caching issue on the linked server? Serving the same info up over and over from memory should be incredibly fast.

Are their pages dynamic and filled with ads and stuff or something that makes this a problem?
