If you want to dive deeper into the issues look into Developable Surfaces https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Developable_surface

During Covid this is not true, but my experience with Remote work is you need to be located next to a major international airport and/or US air hub for any travel requirements. The further you are for these locations make it incredible difficult to travel when the need comes up. Any company/employee that isn't based is a city center with good air travel would be limited with what they can do. This article clearly doesn't account for these differences.

I've been wondering if someone could make an active cooling dock for the Mac Book Air. I was even thinking the M1 wattage is low enough that you could have a thermoelectric cooler lowering case temp down to room temp.

I think it is clear they dropped 32bit x86 support so it would be easier to develop Rosetta 2 (The x86 emulation layer). I don't really see why they would drop support otherwise.

I really like the idea deleting feature branches after they are merged, but I rather would have a recycle bin or trash can concept where the branch is deleted after ~7-30 days in case I make a mistake and delete the wrong branch. Searching for a SHA to recover a branch is never fun.

Sure hope it is actual hardwired, and not hardware with an updatable firmware chip controlling the LED like apple used to do.

Isn't it all MIT license OpenSource:

Can't we just strip all the BS from it, and make our own version?

How much of the office 365 platform is truly needed for work? Developers have been avoiding it for years, it is an old bloated piece of software, that many companies stick with because it is the status quo.

Maybe my perspective is skewed, but most of our parents in the US have many more retirement options than those of us working will. Our parents have been graced with Pension Plans, Social Security, and Medicare most of which will not exists or will be water down by the time we get to it. They have also benefited from a rise in home prices where they have been able to sell and downsize for a great profit. I don't know anyone from my age group taking care of there parents in anyway currently.

Funny you mention Tree House. The beer seems almost impossible to get these days.

In theory copying contiguous data is faster than dealing with pointer indirection.

If you are looking high end cases they are out there, just hidden.

Such as,

Dune Pro: https://www.dunecase.com/ InWin lines: https://www.in-win.com/en/gaming-chassis/z-tower/ Lian Li, Cases that are desks, and other high end designs: http://www.lian-li.com/

If you have money, you will find people looking to sell you high end cases.

I personally use Fractal Design cases, they look good, made of thick steel, and are cheap enough I can replace them more often without feeling bad.

I wouldn't call 18 year transitory. Yes the problems decline, but there are still issues with working from home with kids. Generally space and noise becomes an issue as well.

Normal water usage in the US costs more than $25 a month.

If you don't have septic you have to double that cost as well to pay for sewage treatment.

This cost is most likely already subsidized by local property taxes, it doesn't take in account the total cost to provide water (Water Towers, wells, infrastructure, etc.), or the fact that Deriot has horrible water to begin with and needs more conditioning.

You can merge master/develop into your PR multiple times, always keeping it up to date with the latest until until it can be merged.

This is the magic of git, it allows multiple merges something that wasn't possible in older systems.

Define thermal problems? They get warm, but newer firmware seems to do much better than the first ones.You could just add a fan and not worry about it.

Not enough Microservices, Big Data, AR, and Machine Learning

(I am worried we just described 3 half billion dollar startups)
