I was a picky eater as a child. There are tons of foods I didn't like and would not eat. As an adult I've been challenging myself to try these foods again. The most dramatic difference in what I tasted versus what I expected was just fresh cut strawberries. I was at a wedding and they had a fruit display. I tried one, and then I got more. It turns out that a lot of the foods I didn't like as a kid were either not the right temperature or bad quality.
I think in this context it means to be a "helicopter parent". One that hovers over their child ready to act. I compare it to a smothering style of parenting
I have a friend who worked relatively high in big tobacco. He rationalized that his job is going to exist no matter what, and that if he takes it, he will be able to benefit and do something about it. I don't know what he meant by doing something, but it didn't seem to eat at him. But either way he only worked there for about 2 years before getting recruited somewhere else
I will report that I have not tried uploading books via WiFi to my kobo, but I have had such simple and straightforward success by plugging the kobo into a laptop and simply dropping book files onto it like an external drive. Kobo handles the rest
I started with jellyfin, and eventually let my partner convince me to pay for a lifetime pass for Plex. Plex just has better functionality. Not only can I access my library from anywhere, the subtitles work without fiddling with different srt files, the error messages are much more descriptive, and I find the documentation for adding OTA antenna and DVR functionality much more comprehensible with Plex.
I like jellyfin for what it is, but Plex makes it all work with far less headache and much better support. So Plex wins, in my mind for now.
And with all that being said, I got my Plex lifetime pass a few years ago, so the value I have will not be the same as yours if you are just now starting to consider Plex, so I can understand why you might have a different opinion
The real concern is the quality of the patches AI are making. If they are badly trained (i.e. learning with buggy code, which is all of it over time) then there is a possibility that it can introduce bugs that did not exist, or possibly do nothing to patch the bug, while adding incoherent code to an existing codebase
I've been to both the Hofbrauhausen in Pittsburgh in the summer and Munich in the winter. The different seasons may have played largely into it, but they were very different vibes
A blog of one dude in California and he's been posting to his website since the 90s. He makes lots of art projects and plays elaborate yet harmless pranks on his friends. Once he was tasked with covering Dave Grohl in tin foil on MTV for some reason
As a software developer, it is a known best practice when you are using external software to use a specific version. Never use "latest" except in testing and development. Once it's ready you pin it to a version ( which can be the latest version, just make sure to actually specify that version id). Then again I've never set up an *arr stack before
Yes. I had a hybrid position pre COVID that was 2/3 days a week home at alternating weeks, due to a lack of available desks in our office building. That was always nice when I worked from home. I enjoyed doing laundry during the day and being able to stop work and immediately get to switch off, as opposed to the days in office where I'd deal with driving home and traffic.
I switched to a fully in office job when Covid hit, and our office when fully remote. Other than training and onboarding, I haven't been required in office since. I love remote work. I won't go back unless I have absolutely no other choice
You can blame this all on me for my ignorance. As someone from the US, I can't say I am very familiar with the details on Australian versus New Zealand geography. No miffing was intentional, I assure you!
Primitive technology. There are many imitators, but the original is a man on his own in Australia. His videos focus on building structures in the woods. Starting with river mud, he will make a furnace in order to make bricks in order to make a building to sleep in in order to use it for kiln drying for larger structures etc.....
Be sure to watch with subtitles to read his explanation of things!
Edit to fix: he is based in Australia, not new Zealand.
In my experience, the matching part doesn't really mean anything other than the conversation between the two of you is now possible. Both of you need to participate in that conversation. And it needs to go well if it means you'll have a date. The statistics are not great for men, and nothing is organic about the process, so you just have to protect your feelings and understand that if they don't talk to you, or if it doesn't go well, it can be for any number of reasons.
Try your best to not get frustrated, because each individual person is doing their own thing, it's not you versus all potential matches. You are you. They are them. It just doesn't work out sometimes
I would want to do so many things. I would want to do a ninja warrior type course, but with adjusted gravity or something. I'd make it into a gym with everything I need for my workout. That or maybe recreate a sports stadium and watch football from today, because I missed all of it? The possibilities are endless
I started needing glasses when I was 13. I couldn't see the writing on the chalkboard any more. My eyes have slowly gotten worse since then and nowadays I need them all the time. It's still an adjustment every time I get a new pair, but you get used to it real quick
I've worked on some enterprise projects specifically to detect bot activity, so that they wouldn't waste ML resources on a fake customer. While it's a bit of a cat and mouse game, they can certainly review past data for their advertising campaign and the conversion rates they are getting in order to determine if reddit ads are worth the money
As I recall, aeon flux started in the United States on mtv as part of its "liquid television" block in the early 90s. Back when the station was owned by viacomm, same as Nickelodeon. It shared several voice actors with Rugrats too
