I tired this (mid forties, eyesight started degrading a year ago, willing to try anything, bookmarked). One interesting thing I noticed is that when I went to the sight, it was bright red. As I stared, it seems to fade to orange. Eyes are definitely doing something!

We've got an issue between Comms wanting to use Webex Teams as our company standard and Productivity wanting to use Microsoft Teams. As 'conversations' become more ubiquitous, it shouldn't matter what client you're using. I can read my email in Thunderbird, Outlook, or Roundcube. Group conversations shouldn't be any different.

Government deciding which degrees to fund based on 'societal needs' is about as socialist as you can get. In your initial post, though, you're ranting about the LEFT. Seems you might need some internal reflection on your political beliefs.

If we have too many law degrees, then lawyer's salaries will drop, and people will pursue fewer law degrees. The government doesn't need to pick and choose.

Turning it off in school to learn the difference - priceless

The only way they're forcing your stereo equipment into obsolescence is if your stereo equipment consisted solely of a pair of wired headphone.

Box just announced a new partnership with IBM to use their workflow engine. I think Box is just trying to build as many partnerships as they can to build relevance. They don't really have anything the Google could stand up on their own.

In American English, a highway is a main road, not any road. In law, this is defined by State Highways or Interstate Highways, depending on whether it's maintained by the State or the Feds. If the local county is responsible, it's a County Road, definitely not a highway.

Yep, it's really hard. That's why you develop a system that doesn't need to detect 100% of the lane markings. If you can optically detect 30-40% of them, and add that data to lidar mapped concrete patterns, medians, satellite imagery, gps, and other data sources, the software can accurately construct the proper path to follow. It's like a circle, you don't need to see the whole thing to draw a copy, you only need three points from it.

I'm going to extract a shitton of enjoyment out of going to sleep in my pod in Denver and waking up at the beach in San Diego!

That's why I'm fighting to keep node.js out of my organization... Management might start getting ideas. I am NOT switching back to PBR!

What you don't need is a PC. The majority of PC users don't do anything with their PC/laptop that can't be done with a tablet, and the experience on the tablet blows away the experience on a PC. Saying you don't need a tablet is like saying you don't need a cell phone 'cause your land line works just fine.

Great point. I always laugh when this list comes out each year, 'cause the guy who used jelHk7$%jh78df+EK9 was just as compromised as the guy who used abc123.

No one has ever accused the patent office of making things easy to find.
