I think X led the way in robotic hellscape innovation that's now being adopted by Reddit.
Great article, thanks for mentioning it!
I'm glad I deleted my content on the way out.
Hiring manager here. It totally depends on the culture of the company. We do not post JDs like you describe. If anything I aim wider with minimum requirements and hope for more skills. I don’t screen incoming resumes, I have people who do that for a living (note: not software). Resumes and cover letters that get past some initial screening I most definitely read. If you include a cover letter, best to use it to augment some angle that may not be apparent reading your resume. I do set aside some promising candidates that don’t fit the immediate job and I have hired these people for other ones.
I have a few Anker 313 wireless charging stands around the house. They work great with iPhones. Due to the design, they can't charge an AirPods case without an adapter to lift the case to the right spot. That is the purpose of this model. I don't have the old style non-Pro AirPods, but this will probably also work with that wireless charging case. It prints well with 10% infill PLA.
I own a pellet stove that has a heat exchanger with extra long cast iron “fingers” (see photo). This needs to be cleaned regularly. The challenge is, a standard brush attachment's bristles are too short to do this properly. This vacuum attachment solves that problem. It fits a Loveless ash vacuum but should also fit other ash vacuums as the hose size is pretty standard. Print this in PETG for strength.
The resulting print is designed to accept a length of bristles cut from a CNC dust shoe brush with 70 - 100mm bristles (choose whatever you need). One of those is enough to make several brushes. I used a small amount of urethane glue to attach the bristles (mist lightly with water first).
I did that spontaneously almost a decade ago. Alcohol is overrated and I do not regret the decision. If one misses the flavor or other aspects, be advised there are now many excellent non-alcoholic drinks available (beer, wine, and even liquor approximations). Increasingly, I'm finding them available at restaurants and bars.
To the supreme court they go... I think we can predict the voting there down to the individual justice.
It's a serious problem. Saint-Gobain significantly polluted the groundwater in southern New Hampshire. Job done, they are exiting the state looking for greener pastures to pollute.
I agree with the OP on this. Tie them up defending against an attack that will never happen. NATO is a defensive alliance.
I generally hate them in consumer-targeted apps. Theoretically, there's nothing wrong with the model. Devs have to keep the lights on, especially if there is a cloud service behind the app. It's all about what pricing model they set. However, pricing is hard. A lot of companies really screw this up right at the start. I also think a lot of businesses cannot resist the temptation to boil the frog and ask for more and more over time, until their pricing is way out of alignment with value delivery.
Imagine another Trump term with these abuses unleashed and amplified.
I think it's because privacy is less an issue with podcasts (ads don't have as many options to track) and enshitification of the experience has been on a slower roll than, say, youtube. Lately some solutions are out there in the form of commercial apps but they are limited and who knows if their biz model will survive. I'd like to see an open source solution but I haven't found one.
NPR New Music Friday is helpful a lot of the time
It’s all a bit of an arms race (to the bottom). If my competition is freely allowed to obscure the true cost, I’m at a disadvantage not to do the same. Government intervention is needed.
Recent screenings of the movies "Barbie" and "Oppenheimer" have been marred by disruptive behavior from audience members. Incidents include individuals being naked in the theater, drunken outbursts, cellphone use, and exhibitionism. The trend of unruly behavior extends beyond movie theaters, with instances of disruptions at concerts, Broadway shows, and even on airplanes. Experts suggest that a combination of recent collective traumas, cellphone culture, and a desire for constant stimulation may be contributing factors. Movie theater policies and enforcement are being relied upon to address the issue, but some argue that disruptive behavior is becoming normalized in public spaces.
Washington Post: Americans waste $10 billion each year on name-brand ink. So we tested low-cost options including remanufactured cartridges, ink injection kits — and even making our own.
My advice: get a mono laser printer. Printing is handy but relatively infrequent for a lot of people these days. If that's your use case, mono laser is the way to go. Toner does not dry out or go bad.
Summer is here. Where are the fireflies?
In familiar predicament for famously challenging client, multiple Florida lawyers decline to take Trump’s case, people familiar with the matter say.
