I think pcsx 2 let’s you put a PS2 CD in and run it through the emulator

I’d appreciate the hbr or medium model of so many free uses and then you have to pay a minimal fee to use the platform

Clean fuel for the furnace

Show it, the studies have shown that workers are more productive when remote. Evidence would help make things easier to stomach with this insane RTO push. Covid is still kicking around, and the dramatic return to commutes is damaging to our planet.

Coordination comes from competent leadership regardless of location. Any company larger than 10 people needs some way to handle coordination. Async coordination is really under trained and under utilized as a result but works really well with remote workers. You can’t async everything tho so synchronous coordination happens the same way remotely as it does in person, with a meeting and sequential execution. This is basic stuff for people who work with logic often like programmers who have had remote work opportunities for decades now.

Mentoring, you’re worried about that when most companies won’t pay for training or provide time or bandwidth for mentorship. Assuming leadership is onboard with the actual costs and output reductions that come with mentorship, you collaborate mostly the same way IRL as you do remotely: by looking at a screen together. Which is far easier over zoom / teams. Or you ask questions in a call or through chat.

Firmly in camp conservative (yikes) Fav OS: Fedora Fav browser: Firefox Fav apps: Thunder and Element and technically feeder but only because I haven’t had the energy to write my own rss feed consumer nervously in dart/flutter

I’m in the process of putting together my own next cloud and moving to proton mail. After that I’ll be able to install bridges from a self hosted matrix to discord for people and teams for work. I use edge, outlook, and teams on my work computer but it occasionally connects to my home network so at some point I’ll probably put it on an isolated vlan.

Yeah I think that makes CSS a manager. It’s always prioritizing not important things

But the stories and epics too

• Jeffery wtf is this?
• ok so why didn’t we remove this from the codebase!?
• define the variable please I’m begging for just a smidge of readability!!! … Oh that’s actually remarkably clever

You could use proton cloud storage to do 90% of the same thing you just would have to have local editors installed

For a lot of open source at the moment the root level readme is fundamentally the homepage too. It absolutely should include screenshots, maybe even a gif. If your software has a GUI or TUI it should follow that a concise visual will do more to explain it’s usage than a text document

As a species we need a mix of progressive and conservative people. Progressives act as a sort of antennae force finding new ways to approach the world while conservatives are there for if we progress in a way that is ultimately harmful. Finding the right balance and control system is the hard part, not fitting everyone into a progressive or conservative ideology

Yeah… It sucks that companies have no responsibility to make working for them good or even to be environmentally conscious

You could set up a docker with an exposed port for connections to the MySQL database server and run 20 databases inside it, that will come with its own risks fyi. You may have MySQL version mismatches to start with, you may have concurrent connections trying to use the same internal port, you may have a number of different situations where reads or writes take a much longer time due to other services wanting data.

Studies have literally done nothing but show that people are just as or more productive wfh than in office

Pomodoro babyyyyy

This is it. Gpt is great for taking stack traces and put them into human words. It’s also good at explaining individual code snippets. It’s not good at coming up with code, content, or anything. It’s just good at saying things that sound like a human within an exceedingly small context

Less software and more driverware. My headphones (arctis nova pro wireless) have some really nice customizations available with the sonar software. Nvidia drivers are more customizable but the issue is mostly support for vrr through gsync, dlss, hdr, and Nvidia broadcast. I know AMD is supposedly bounds and leaps ahead of Nvidia but that’s what I have for current hardware because of how useful and ubiquitous the software is.
