I’m not sure that this is a “game” idea so much, but I’ve had this idea I haven’t been able to wrap my head around the implementation of.
Think a digital audio workstation such as Ableton Live or Logic, but gamified. Complete various musical objectives to pass levels, have a creative mode for just making music and maybe even a multiplayer mode for collaborative or competitive music making.
I tend to go back and forth between Go and Python. Typically for work stuff I am writing AWS automation utilities though so I'll opt for Python because Boto3 is lovely. Go is typically for my personal projects.
I've also been itching to try my hand at Rust, but haven't brought myself to start yet.
Hmm…interesting. I would have figured it would be more akin mechanically speaking to being suffocated, as those scenarios also deprive the body of oxygen. Maybe the difference is that the action of breathing out and then breathing back in would be expelling any remaining oxygen from the lungs without replacing it with more oxygen?
I am having a hard time following how it renders immediate unconsciousness though, given that one could simply breathe out to empty their lungs and then hold their breath for a short period of time without being rendered unconscious, and in theory that should be comparable. Sounds like I might be missing something key here that likely accounts for the disconnect.
I’m going to say that while everything I’ve read on the matter supports the “it’s one of the more pleasant ways to go” argument, I’d be more interested in reading expert opinions on the matter before coming to a concrete conclusion.
The lawyers on both sides of the case should be consulting with doctors and medical researchers to understand what the experience would consist of, how long it would take, the efficacy, side effects if it fails, etc. This is the information that I think should be the deciding factor for proceeding or not.
I will also say that while oxygen deprivation is quick, it’s not instant. It does take up to a few minutes in some cases before brain death to occur, and something to the order of 30 seconds to a minute for unconsciousness to set in.
My personal opinion based on the information so far, assuming that everything I’ve read is factual, would suggest that of all the execution routes available so far, this one is likely the least awful. I won’t say most humane, as I don’t really believe there is a humane way to approach it. If we do have to use the death penalty though, I think this is the approach I would have the fewest objections to.
I’m lucky in that my employer went the opposite direction. Downsizing our local office and just letting us all be 100% remote. We’re a geographically distributed group so it doesn’t make sense to enforce office requirements.
Wait. I can automate my meetings too? I dig it.
As much as a lot of that hate it warranted, I’d say the install location isn’t so much a Teams issue as it is a Windows issue and how it handles user-level vs system-level installs. Obviously still a Microsoft problem, but important to note.
Ah, neat! Yeah that would work then. I’d hope that your usernames are unique in your self-hosted setup, so that should work just fine. Very nice!
Hmm…this should work but I do have a concern on it based on my experience with AWS. Maybe this is different with minio though.
In AWS, S3 bucket names are globally unique. Not just to your AWS account, but across ALL S3 buckets period. So let’s say you have a username of “test” and use that policy. If that user attempts to create a bucket and that bucket name is taken, well that user is out of luck.
Obviously if minio doesn’t require globally unique bucket names you’re probably fine, but otherwise this could realistically become a problem.
As someone who is getting ready to work at 9pm on a Sunday night…what’s this clock you speak of?
I have to wonder what is going through their heads to think this would be in any way helpful to their cause. It’s literally saying “hey I’m screwing you out of money in the name of Trump.”
That’s definitely going to win over prospective voters.
I’m not as familiar with Itch but it works the same as GOG in that you can download the installer and keep it, no special activations or DRM required. Right? Because I definitely love that aspect of GOG. I just wish it had a larger library.
That’s where I’m at. I use it regularly for learning new things and for entertainment, so I don’t mind paying for it, and getting rid of ads while supporting creators is perfectly fine with me.
You’ll have to pry my root access from my cold dead fingers!
jk…take it. I’d rather not have to worry about OS-level shenanigans anymore.
Same. I used to pay for premium even though I was an Apollo user. I paid because I liked Reddit and thought it brought me value.
Now I’m only keeping my account to ensure my posts and comments stay dead as best as I can.
If all the employees are in a union, you can’t get rid of all the unions without getting rid of all the employees.
I build cloud IT infrastructure for a living and I’ve been at it for several years. There’s a lot to it, but I’ve gotten to a point where I’ve developed a reputation for being a person who knows how it works and can figure out how to build effectively in it. I won’t call it easy, but I’ve become comfortable and adept with it, and so to some it appears to be easy for me.
Just recently we had a person join our team with a background almost exclusively in OS administration. He’s doing alright for someone who is just starting out, but it’s obvious he’s intimidated and so he asks a lot of questions.
I told him this.
It’s perfectly okay to feel like you’re in over your head on all of this. There is a lot to learn. Besides server administration, you have to understand networking, permissions management, software development to a degree, database management and a ton more.
There’s a plethora of services at your disposal. Much like a giant toolbox, your job is to understand when to pull out the right tool, as well as how to use said tool effectively. This is going to take time, and you’re only going to truly learn it by doing it. Take time and ask questions, and you’ll get the hang of it. When I started, I was in the same boat.
I think that’s made him feel better about his inexperience, and I’ve seen him progressing at an admirable pace.
Same, though I guess maybe? The public posts and comments make reddit more valuable. Private messages don’t.
That being said, I’m calling incompetence on this one.
Because my ability to disappoint may be faster.
I am just now starting through Fallout 4. I’ve had it in my library for a while but never got around to it.
