An emergency alert went off on my wife’s phone for a second time at 2.50, and 26 minutes later I still couldn’t fall asleep. I am also anxiously waiting for my alarm to ring any time. I don’t want to disable emergency alarms because they are important, but if they keep sending them in the middle of the night again and again at different hours they aren’t leaving me much choice.

In my first ever programming class textbook was using Allman. Probably for this reason, it is easy for a beginner to match braces. It is a lot loss common industry to my knowledge.

If you knew about the birds and the bees, you would know that this wasn’t random.

To be fair 10^(0.000000000000000000001x) is also exponential growth. And if status quo is x=0 and removing entire management means x=10 this means even the max we can get is very little improvement. It can be “exponential” and still not so much.

“Exponentially” is not synonymous to “a lot”. Exponent is a mathematical term and exponential growth requires at least two variables exponentially related to each other. For this to be possibly exponential growth a) progress should be quantifiable (removing management and treating workers well should be quantized somehow) b) performance should be quantifiable and measured at a bunch of progress points (if you have only two measurements it can as well be linear) c) performance should be or can be modeled as a an exponential function of progress in removing management and treating workers well.

I don’t think this will work well and others already explained why, but thanks for using this community to pitch your idea. We should have more of these discussions here rather than CEO news and tech gossip.

We should stop calling these titles confusing and call them what they are, plain wrong. This is the title of the original article. People who cannot write grammatically correct titles are writing entire articles.

I don’t realistically expect such ban to happen. I started banning everyone who posts about Musk instead, my feed got a lot cleaner.

Web design is not the only option for someone who likes programming. Since you are still a student, there are so many options in front of you. You can be an embedded engineer and work closer to hardware, design firmware, electronic chips themselves or their verification environment. You can be a software engineer and work on business-to-business software which does not include adds and is very useful (e.g. CAD tools, inventory trackers for supermarkets and hospitals etc.). There is so much you can do, pursue something you are enthusiastic about.

It was, thanks

I was way off:)

Is this an AOE2 reference or is it historically correct? I knew I should not have learnt history from games.

Are you writing from your grave?

Pointing out won’t do, we need moderation.

This is a good one. We get standard phishing tests which make no sense. It is usually a person I don’t know, from a company I haven’t heard of asking me to edit/review a file they share. People who design these tests should know that people do NOT jump into the opportunity of editing/reviewing files or receiving tasks. I imagine real phishing attacks must be smarter than this.

I realized that there is one actually !itcrowd@lemmy.world

Where is The IT Crowd community when you need one?

It may be early for crunchy leaves. Marinade them for another month for perfect crunchiness.
