Sounds complicated, but probably worth it. Now to set up some kind of easy to use program that can do it all simply by aiming it at the right set of files (and swapping out blank discs as requested).
Just wish that tape drives where a bit more available in prices ranges outside of the business stuff. Then again, i guess that is where optical come in. Burn two copies, and store them cool and dry. In the end, any media that allow the separation of rw hardware and the actual storage object without requiring a clean room is more reliable imo. This because rw hardware failure can then be recovered from.
Yea. Now that Apple is strongly interlinked with Big Media, i am surprised that they do not remove copy as a easily available file action to promote treating files as more physical. Perhaps with a special "xerox" icon for copying, complete with a cop or lawyer next to it that gives a thumb up or down on the legality of making a copy of that file.
I fear the issue is that if you want the paper to have high liquid absorption you need it to be "fussy". This then results in a very loose texture. Sadly, bringing a pen and pad everywhere will make one appear both nerd and desperate...
Was there not a claim that during some meetings in the 60s, most of the people in the room was either agents or informers to various government agencies?
and that touches on a different issue, using lines of codes as a metric for productivity. Sadly the hardest problems may never show up on that metric, as it may be solved with a single line. But that single line may hide days of grappling with the problem in the first place, mapping all its twists and turns.
And the places most likely to be hiring, ((sub-)sub-)sub-contractors to some overly outsourced brand name or startups, are likely lead by the younger ranks.
Well for the most part those games where designed to be hard (and when converted to consoles, resulted in the term Nintendo hard). End result was that if you could finish the game on a single coin, you got a sense of accomplishment. Now however they aim more at being tedious unless you fork over some cash for that in-game apple cart or similar. You do not feel any accomplishment clicking the X+1 apple tree for that 0.000001% chance of collecting the last apple you need, unlike finally getting a perfect run on some jumping segment (or some X hit combo on the boss) because you have managed to memorize the pattern.
odd, as pregnancy plays havoc with the hormone balance. In other words, it may well be a short term side effect of the pregnancy. So if one can hang in there for 9 months, the problem should in theory correct itself.
I claim that the issue is that of the work day. Once your done working your brain is basically fried, and the TV acts as a kind of relaxant. Basically, the modern workday is stressed beyond reason to keep that growth curve going up up up in a exponential fashion. Anything else and the company is presumed dead and ready for slaughter by the stock market and competition. We are no longer humans, we are worker bees or ants.
"we have been doing it like this for generations, it must be right", the foundation for religion. Tho these days also the basis for a lot of basic political thinking (see Hobbes, Locke and Rousseau being deemed basically infallible).
sleep/resume, thanks to ACPI, is a mess. A recent kernel release changed the behavior regarding trusting ACPI about being able to power down a device or not, and ended up draining batteries faster then earlier versions that insisted on powering down everything.
Sadly neither way is optimal as a device may have a legit reason for not powering down.
This however is less of a issue in Windows as the OEMs can work around flaky ACPI data in their drivers.
There was a claim made once that if one put aspies on one island and other humans on a different island, the aspie one could develop the science and arts while the other would develop politics and religion.
That someone seek to be leader do not make them fit to be so.
Still, our nearest relatives among animals do live in groups structured around leaders and led. Not sure if that automatically makes the led slaves tho, as the led will pounce on the leader if they see a weakness.
As for Nietzsche, his writing was modified by his sister to fit certain German trends at the time, so i would be careful about referencing him depending on the source being the edited version or not.
Still, the ultimate question is if humanity is stuck in this track or can lift itself to a higher level...

Iirc, researchers working for Sega found something similar related to 3D games and children back in the 80s.
Yep, last thing needed right now is to jump to conclusions.
Makes one wonder how they are able to pull that if piracy has as big an effect as they claim. Hollywood accounting perhaps?

I see a potential improvement for Noscript, the identification of known tracking services.

That depends on it being able to release the stored energy in as short a time as TNT.

Instead you will be paying for tiger balls...

Equilibrium also involved drugs to maintain social order. This by suppressing emotional reactions.
He is proposing planet scale CDN.

And our energy production is much better off it. That is, if the hardware have proper power gating.
