- I think fundamental problem of it is it being basically a monolith and is now hard to untangle that.
IMO better architecture for such "IOT HUB" would be a rule-engine that basically just takes code (embeddable language like Lua or outright WASM) and runs them against incoming events. Maybe add pluggable storage so the code can use some kind of persistency on top of it.
Then UI would basically be just a configuration interface for that rule engine. So to run high availability you'd just run the engine on 2 nodes and sync the configs, and configuration/dashboard/whatever else using it could run separately on "bigger" machines.
- The new propane or CO2-based pumps the temperature it keeps working is also lower so it isn't much of a problem for most places if you are in market for one currently.

But spammers already do that, why would enforcing that even help ?
- It took like a decade to get average LCD screen to look as good as old CRT. And still need a ton of post-processing to make old pixel art games to look as good as before on LCD.
And I did play a bunch of games 10-20-30 years after they were released and they still hold up. My limit seems to be around SNES-era graphics, before that it just feels too ugly and clunky for me.
Sure, many games just feel like any modern titles do everything better, but some play just fine if you can stomach some of the obsolete mechanics.
> I fired up Doom 2 again on one of the many ports and it looks great, all the nice memories came flooding back, and yet it wasn't the same. It made me realize that the magic wasn't in the games, or the computers or the people. The magic was in us being a bunch of kids born into infinite curiosity and no (real) responsibilities. That magic unfortunately cannot be recreated in adult life.
I thought about it a lot and come to conclusion that every new interesting experience bumps our "standard" up and so once you accumulate a ton of that it's just harder and harder to be wowed by new game, even if it is just fine, fun and plays nice. But me getting my first car in my 30s was still thrilling and I was giggling like mad so dunno about "kid" part. Yeah kids know shit all so everything new is exciting but that doesn't mean you can't find magic moments in the adulthood, just amount of work required is higher.
- You can just buy same chip if someone somehow decided to check random flash chip vendor.
More sensible way to stopping that would be writing eeprom with encrypted key burned into the GPU itself but I doubt NVIDIA bothered, money loss for few people willing enough to take their GPU apart to replace a chip is insignificiant.
- Driver side sucked on AMD since the cards were still ATI tho
- I'm waiting for something like that but with built-in buck-boost to make it immune for charger quirks
- I use it when it's 12V, it's probably most popular barrel plug voltage and also used in a lot of audio devices (aside from guitar pedals which have 9V with reversed voltage... fuck that)
- Pretty much. Near-everything aside from "one man project hacking" will have some amount of "office hours" just used to coordinate with co-workers, plan, code review, or frankly just doing stuff like reading the docs or specs.
Even assuming "you can only do 3 productive hours a day" (which is a lie with appeal to authority mixed in. "Look that guy that made shitty web framework did it, it must be good!"), that does apply only to coding, there is more to being developer than just programming
> Especially the advice that you must stop after three hours even when you're "in the zone" seems hard to justify. Instead of insisting on a hard and fixed number of hours everyday, I think it's much more fruitful to follow a flexible time model (which is actually implemented in many work places today): if you happen to have a very productive day, just keep milking it and put in some extra time. In return, you can take that time off on some other day.
I'd even call that advice outright idiotic. You wasted time to get in the zone only to throw it away
I feel like any recommendation of "do X hours of this" is a delusion. We're not robots, we have better or worse days and more or less engaging tasks. If task is "here are API docs, make a bunch of code and tests for it" I can do it whole day without much slowdown.
Like recently here in Poland we had cause of someone's motorization-related facebook page (basically diary of him building his tuned car) got banned after he posted a poll that dared to contain the word "czarny" (black).. someone else got banned for posting pic of their kids on vacation etc.
