Original account. i also use my discuss online account.

  • Raspberry Pi 500 and Raspberry Pi Monitor are available now

    Jump

  • No promises, but the monitor was built for low-powered devices. So it should work in theory.

    I bought another portable monitor for $70 and that also worked. But so did a cheap $20 used LCD monitor.

  • Clown School Student Who Tried to Smuggle Gold-Plated Pistol into Australia Claims Google Said It Was 'OK'

    Jump

  • You know the headline is packed when there's a literal golden gun and not a single N64 Goldeneye reference.

  • Pixel 6, 7 series get an extra two years of software upgrades

    Jump

  • At its price point, it's very underwhelming.

    I also did the math and I could get an average phone (used) every year for three years before I break even. And those average phones would be more powerful with each iteration.

    Unless you're bought into eco-friendly minimal waste messaging, it's really hard to choose fairphone.

  • Here's some BS. My phone's battery replacement cost $220. ($100 for battery, and $120 to be serviced) That was the same price as buying a refurbished version of the upgrade.

    I missed the days of just replacing the battery with a screwdriver.

  • Is it true America has a long history of idolizing outlaws? Can you name some?

    Jump

  • Well classic rap.

    Today's rap doesn't have as much bragging and flexing. Not to say it doesn't happen, it's just not as significant as classic rap.

  • In 2000s, website builders were supposed to make websites so easy, a grandma could make a website. Look how that turned out.

    Also right now, I could argue that as a engineer, i can use AI to create mockups and I don't need a designer. But designers aren't going anywhere.

    Devs/designers using AI to support our workflow is going to be the norm.

  • Don't put too much trust in so called "certificates" from these schools.

    Absolutely this.

    During an interview, an applicant bragged about how he was at the top of his class in computer science and could not stop mentioning his GPA. I turned off my video because I couldn't stop laughing.

    His portfolio was dogshit too.

  • We just hired a former musician who spent his 20s-30s in a band, and his 40s playing in dive bars.

    He took a 2 year bootcamp and he's currently one of my juniors in his 50s. He told me the salary at the junior level was 2x more than he ever made.

    Maybe he's lucky. But if you're obsessed with programming, you'll make it. It's a tough industry right now. But in two years, who knows? Maybe they'll be a hiring spree again.

  • Anti-Joke Sato

    Jump

  • My kid made a joke like this and I think about it a lot!

    "What did the T-Rex say to the other T-Rex? Nothing."

  • Imagine that

    Jump

  • Eh?

    Not in my industry.

  • This is Jethro, he likes to sit like a human

    Jump

  • I sit more like a cat.

  • Maps.me co-founder tries to close down Organic Maps open-source fork - HN

    Jump

  • My experience with HN is comments from out-of-touch engineers and me-too startup folks circle jerking with themselves. Can't say they're any better than the random discourse on social media.

  • Someone's Been Naughty

    Jump

  • Meme: "Christmas indirectly causes global warming!" 🤣🤣🤣

    Reality: A lot of the junk we make for Christmas indirectly causes global warming.😐😐😐

  • What is something that people think is scary, but isn't?

    Jump

  • War atrocities. There's a lot of terrible shit that happened in America, and instead, we teach kids that the Indians gave the pilgrims corn.

    German kids grow up learning about the Holocaust. Japanese kids grow up learning about what they did in WW2.

    Americans are scared to learn about these things that we have book banning and fucktards rewriting history books. It's not scary, it's history.

  • Moderators Across Social Media Struggle to Contain Celebrations of UnitedHealthcare CEO’s Assassination

    Jump

  • He didn't really get "assassinated". He just got denied his critical-life benefits.

  • And Anthem too apparently lol

    Jump

  • PR machine already going out to protect the rich.

  • U.S. officials urge Americans to use encrypted apps amid unprecedented cyberattack

    Jump

  • Wait what? You know that leftists dislike Democrats, right?

    Are you really not aware they are two different things?

  • How would you process the fact that a new friend of yours is a cop? (USA)

    Jump

  • ACAB is cops as a collective. Like, your friend may be a great person when not at work. And may even be 'one of the good ones' when on the clock.

    That doesn't mean he's going to testify against a fellow officer that he sees planting drugs on a suspect.

    Totally. Some of the most horrific stories in the Police Problem community is what cops do to their friends and family.

    There's that one cop that won best police officer award and was straight off killing people.
