For me at least: getting out into nature. Cycling can easy get you out and into the countryside. And is easy on the joints etc. I prefer road bikes as I can see more.

Otherwise, I often drive to walks or runs with good views etc. I cycle to a nice forest park run.

The other trick that works with me is statistics. Going for Strava or park run segments/records can really motivate me. I also now use the wanderer.earth extension to get ‘points’ for exploring new places I have never been.

Going to the gym sucks. Swimming is nice in moderation.

I have to admit I didn’t read it through properly, but if it’s a problem with two CPUs then it’s probably a motherboard issue. (Or something g completely unrelated like ram)

Just RMA it (or the motherboard?)

Because then you have an expensive robot not being used, while still keeping the wage bill.

Places with the wireless battery powered payment terminals will still work without power for a while. Lots of them don’t even need network, they just sync up later.

But for the most part, if there is a significant power outage, things are screwed anyway.

I think the idea is that there are other events with similar risk profiles, the papal election is just an example of one.

If you sort by top, there are some quite funny ones.

Do most fridges not have shelves that can be put practically anywhere?

I can read way faster than I can type though. You still check it, but it’s pretty good as that kind of stuff once you have an example for it to follow.

Those are the easy time savings though, the safe easy stuff the developer doesn’t have to worry about anymore. (Giving them time do the gnarly stuff)

Would be interesting to see how they measured that metric. Are they tagging individual lines as AI generated?

What those lines are too would be interesting, AI as auto complete is less dangerous than complete generation, but probably also less useful.

It forces gamification and external motivation.

Internal motivation is much stronger but gets ‘defeated’ by external motivation.

Gets me every time, I wish there was a way to turn off all the extra shit, then I might actually learn something.

I think he meant to just not ship to stores until all the online, pre-release orders had been delivered.

When I get a new phone, it gets a folding case. No need for a screen protector then.

Once that case becomes manky I normally switch to a shell only case and a screen protector. Without the protector, the screen eventually gets scratched by things ending up in the same pocket.

Mostly work in a disposable way. Not sure glass ones exist for the phones with stupid curved screen edges?

No one wants to use their fabs because they’re bad!

(Not awful, but not cutting edge really any more)

That’s what I get for getting my news from Lemmy memes.

Updated my comment

So him not meeting Vance earlier may not have been a snub then ☹️ (he did)

Was he involved in any of the traditional Easter stuff? (He was)

I remember there being someone held back a year. I think it happens.

The company I worked for tried that as an experiment on how much money it saves.

Absolutely awful, even removing connectives causes problems.

You would be surprised
