The only hard part is getting the hardware to work, since there's less driver support for FreeBSD than for Linux. (Admittedly, that's a serious drawback if it impacts you, but nothing if it doesn't).
Of course, not everyone agrees. "How many nails can we realistically drive into Star Wars's coffin before it's time to give up hope of resuscitation?" writes Clarisse Loughrey
These are the words of someone who never liked Star Wars to begin with, and wants it to die.
In reality Star Wars is a fine universe, and all it takes is one good story set in that universe to bring life to it. I'd like to see how Palpatine can truly be defeated (who is more the Sith ideology than a character).
A demonstration of this is how I got my present position. It was known that I perform under pressure. It was known that I have top notch technical skills. It was known that I get along well with people. And that I do not intimidate easily.
My current position is 100% remote (because I want it to be so; a few of us are 100% WFH, but a majority of the employees are not so).
All of the things that you mention are known, and observed, about me. Even though I am 100% remote. Known and observed by my current coworkers, those who have left, and by our clients.
So yes, I have less "schmooze" networking. But plenty of the kind that matters, even though I am "just an avatar" (and would I want to work with people who care about the kind of schmoozing that shouldn't matter?). Well worth the tradeoffs for me.
I don't care which one you pick at this point (permanent DST or permanent standard), just keep it the same all year.
Would love to see that in my lifetime.
You're as big an idiot as the bill's sponsor, who said creating a permanent Daylight Saving would bring "more usable daylight hours throughout the year." DST doesn't provide "extra daylight hours." It doesn't affect the number of day/night hours a single bit. Maybe if we outlawed winter?
I'm not agreeing or disagreeing with the phrase, but if you don't omit the word "usable" (as, ahem, you are doing) then it's hardly impossible.
but some managers are the opposite and contribute heavily to successes of projects.
Absolutely, a good manager is a very valuable asset to a company.
calling the Cybercab the “most efficient EV ever” is technically accurate, but it’s a bit like comparing a motorcycle’s fuel economy to a sedan’s. The Cybercab is a purpose-built, two-seat autonomous pod with no driver controls. No steering column, no pedal assembly — all of that weight and complexity is gone. Tesla designed a teardrop-shaped body that narrows significantly at the rear, optimized purely for aerodynamics rather than rear passenger comfort or cargo space.
Presumably it's aimed at being a Driverless Taxi, not a consumer car.
"Meanwhile, the program has been hit by a leadership exodus, with three senior leaders departing since February."
That's a good thing. If their top engineers were leaving, that would be a bad thing. When management leaves, the engineers become more efficient.
Embrace the Tao.
But when told this, the programmer once more refused, saying, "I exist so that I can program. If I were promoted, I would do nothing but waste everyone's time. Can I go now? I have a program that I am working on."
