Greed and overconsumption is the main problem. Even if we find the cheapest and environmental friendly fuel source, they’ll increase the use all the way up and make new problems. We need to replace previous fuel use by new ones, not just add new ones and still keep old ones and use far more power than before.

So basically,

I want other people to work hard, get in trouble, and all that, so that I can just enjoy my own life not having to worry about those stuffs.

Works great, until everyone starts thinking the same, and then noone works towards making your life better. It just gets worse and worse, because only people focusing on politics are doing it for their benefits. And then you start blaming anyone and everyone except yourself for making it worse for you.

In that case you can probably find someone for $100-200 that’ll check your excel logic and make sure it works on libre office. Or python script

How much do you pay? Maybe you can pay someone to write you a custom program to do those things. Maybe in libre office, or python, or some other language with gui and plots.

Mostly wing it based on my memory. But in some occasions, there’s a list of important stuffs. It’s mostly just 2,3 items like “we’re out of potatoes/onions/salt”, then wing the rest.

I think except for important and constant stuffs like spices, it’s better to just buy what’s available cheap and make your food from that. But that could be just me

Historically the countries where that happened, if they were in this US situation they’d have done that decades ago. The spirit of not tolerating manufactured hardship, that is present in those population, does not seem to be present here.

I don’t know a lot about other fields but stat people are hired a lot by research institutions. A good statistician can reduce the number of experiments you need to do, being able to test a drug/treatment with 7 people instead of 100 means a lot. They save a lot of money.

Also being able to make inference from past data, incomplete data, use correct math (there is always different ways to solve things) so they don’t make mistakes.

And a lot of people with stat degree join either academia, or other fields that have actual problems and use their background to solve issues.

I’m not that knowledgeable about the events. But did he name the cult?

If someone else named the cult, and someone else wrote the Bible. And the book did not exist in his time. Then even if he was a real person that wanted good in the world, he was never a part of the religion/cult that was started in his name, right?

Was Jesus ever Cristian?

Storing videos, and streaming them without latency is a huge problem. Specifically if you also have to process for different resolutions and such for different devices.

Edit: I don’t know how true it is now, but in the past YouTube would have local servers and specific agreements with ISPs for higher bandwidth for them in many countries.

I guess it can go unnoticed, I use Arch so maybe that’s why I got more involved. I remember searching why auto completion didn’t work, then finding out I need to install bash-completions package. After knowing that it makes one curious about how it works. Then the next stage is writing it for my own programs because it obviously won’t come with bash-completions package.

I once wrote a shell (terminal) to watch anime, and I wrote auto completion for different commands on it, it was really nice to just type play then prefix and then tab for auto completion on anime names, and even for episodes I wrote auto completion give me last episode I watched + 1.

Whenever someone says they don’t really like terminal because they don’t like to type or remember commands. This is what I think “they didn’t use auto complete”.

Auto complete works for file names and paths by default, but the development can write it to only complete certain extensions. Like auto complete for image program only completes image files. Then you have completion for commands, subcommands and flags.

Auto complete is done through calling a bash script with currently typed line, and the bash script can call other commands. So developer can write a really complicated auto complete and make it available as a binary if they want, and just use that in bash. Or you can use many tools that will generate auto complete script for you based on your commandline args.

If you write your own scripts/cli binaries I recommend learning how to write auto complete for it. Makes it incredibly easy to use the tools.

Sorry I forgot to respond.

The thing that triggered it was when I shared an xkcd link. I have seen it a lot here but I guess it’s niche. And knowing about tardigrades, and many weird biology knowledge about bugs, bacteria, and such. We’re both super nerdy about science, but at the same time we hadn’t met anyone else be this nerdy about science in real life.

That’s basically same person, no secrets are secrets from spouses.

I don’t know what you mean by supports tray but have you tried KDE connect? It has a lot more features than just sending files but I use it for a few things.

And if you don’t care about having GUI, I love miniserve for sharing files. It’ll open a web server and you can connect to it to download/upload files.

I second this. This is how I got my wife to like me.

Be careful not to go overboard though, my wife, during the first few weeks, thought I might be hacking into her phone because I was tech savvy and we had too many weird things in common.

Rather, it puts you in debt. And now you have even less power. We should normalize everyone being able to live and not force college on everyone. But also make it free/super cheap so people can attend if they want without having to suffer financially

My girlfriend (now wife) didn’t understand when she showed me brown sugar for baking and I said something along “that’s a lot of brown sugar to have just for your use”. She just said “No I use it up in a year” :(

Stop eating gamers

You can’t use phone calls or texting when your family lives in the other side of the globe. Many parents are not tech savvy for them to be able to use something else if you aren’t there to set it up. Lot’s of them got into Facebook, and their friends are there, and we need to be there for them to reach us. It’s the network effect.

Also for many parents, internet = Facebook. They don’t even use emails, or any other services for that matter, maybe news websites that are bookmarked in their browser years ago by their children.
