The issue, as always, is that Plex started to put free existing features behind a paywall to squeeze more money out of their client base instead of adding something and charging for it.
VC money came in and now the VC wants to cash in on the investment.
To be fair, Bluetooth is a clusterfuck of a stack to use.
I don’t know man, we gotta start somewhere
To make machines that you can have sex with.
They keep the lie alive to appease the stocks market happy.
And he didn’t specify how shitty the complex tasks will be done.
If the apartment/house layout is good for the roomba, it is a great tool. It doesn’t replace vacuuming and floor washing, but it does reduce the dirtness on the floor.
Not OP but I can share my journey through my career.
Depends on where you are in the world and your work ethic.
I was a terrible student with a hard time understanding harder maths (due to my schooling, but that is something specific to my region), and I was still able to graduate with a 3/4.3 score. It was a lot of hard work that I wasn’t prepared to do due to my work ethic. I had to learn to be at least decent fast and the first year was brutal.
My experience is that university is a lot harder than the work after university. But the corporate world can be soul crushing. In big corpos, you usually do the same part of a process where as during university, you do a lot of interesting and varied stuff.
My electrical engineering program was generalist with each semester being a different domain of electrical engineering and me being interesting in embedded electronics. So doing a semester of power transmission lines was brutal because I wasn’t that organised and didn’t like the courses.
Society tend to romanticize engineering, but there is a lot of busywork and project management and you get caught in administrative bullshit just like any other job (ask a software engineer thoughts on stand-ups and agile and be ready to hear horror stories).
But, if you really like engineering, there are those moments of pure engineering that makes you forget all the bullshit around and make the career worthwhile.
So life rambling aside, engineering is a worthwhile career. It is not an easy path, but the work is manageable though sometime overwhelming. Treat university like a 9-5 job with some overtime and you’ll do fine.
I didn’t have to worry about the financial side of things because I live a place where school is cheap and student financial aid is plentiful. So keep that in mind when making your decision because I cannot comment on that part.
When I have to use a Windows machine for whatever reason, the first thing I do is to install Chocolatey so that I can have a decent package manager.
I understand that there is always a fall guy. Even before AI was shoved everywhere, those really responsible for the problems they created were not held accountable and put the blame on a fall guy.
You’ve been using Windows all your life. It will take time to be comfortable with Linux since it’s a different workflow, that’s normal.
1070 is old at this point and the driver is mature. For newer GPUs, even on windows, drivers take time to become more stable.
That’s the neat thing, you can deny accountability by blaming the computer’s decision
At this point, it is weaponized incompetence. You tell someone once or twice that closing the lid is not turning off the power and that should be it.
Agile was the cool new thing years back and has been abused and misused and now, pretty much every dev company force it on their team but do whatever the fuck they want.
Agile should have a lot of traditional project management but doesn’t because it became the MBA wet dream of metrics. And when metrics become the target, people will do whatever they need to do to meet the metrics instead of actually progressing the project.
My hot take : lots of projects would benefit from a traditional project management cycle instead of trying to force Agile on every projects.
So back to cable packages. Fucking dumb
Because the mathematics literature fucking sucks.
It is written by math nerds for math nerds. Show me all the fucking proof, you just spent 10 pages talking about anything and everything but you can’t expand on how your formula has been transformed because of whatever theorem.
How many god damn time have I read something akin to “the proof is left to the reader. The resulting formula is [something entirely new].”
Like fuck you, show me how it’s done.
Tired of the constant pop ups in windows 10. The constant upselling of their product.
An OS shouldn’t get in the way of what you are doing and Windows was always popping up some bullshit.
Make something free for it then? The stuff is open and the license makes it so that it stays that way legally (though, in real life, it’s different but that’s another discussion) and any and all other contributions made to the project stays open source.
Not so much. It’s more like “Is there enough Nettlix users that likes Amy Schumer so that we can finance her next special”.
Corpos only care about what you like so that they can maximize their profit.
