I Googled this, but I can't find it, nor am I from the USA. Can you tell me which previous presidents in the US share common successful and unsuccessful varied businesses to Trump and what they did?
I talk a lot when I game and I'm familiar with all the different voice chat software (except Discord)
Discord is what we actually use, because you can paste clipboard data (particularly pictures) easily and have historical views everyone can see and shared text chats with seperate voice channels. Mumble was never really an option because it loses chat history (unlike Teamspeak, however Teamspeak won't synchronise chat buffers with everyone, so you won't see historical things that happened if you weren't there).
How the hell do you concentrate on your work when a couple other people are literally yammering on in your ears? Do you just not talk that much? Do you have separate channels with only two or three other people in them? Do people just not work at all when there's a necessary conversation happening?
If it's off topic to my work and disturbing me, I move to another "virtual office" voice channel (typically those that are working on the same project at that point in time will be in the same "virtual office" voice channel together).
I suspect another part of it, is our work culture is based on the idea of flexibility, so when we're working, we're working hard, when we don't have anything that needs to be done, we can leave early (but contactable by mobile if there is anything) etc. So, this leads mostly to a culture of people that are usually focused on getting the job done well and focused during working hours, because we're not forced to work all "working hours" if there isn't a need to. However, it also means that there are rare times when you are expected to work extra long hours (and nobody seems to complain/have issue when it happens, but that might be because we're mostly veterans of large consultancies that liked to make people do 100 hour work weeks regularly) during crunch time (but that happens really rarely). I suspect that, that alone makes people less chatty and more work focused maybe?
My company is pro-telecommuting. In fact, there is not a single member of staff that doesn't spend most of the week telecommuting.
The way we ensure people are around and active though is that we track activities and work through an online kanban system tied into tickets (code commited to repositories is reported on tickets automatically, wiki documentation is tied in automatically too, office documents are also tied to tickets automatically using our storage system). Additionally, when employees are working, we sit in a push-to-talk enforced voice chat system, where we can easilly collaborate (unlike Slack, Hipchat and Skype for business, that either don't care about voice chat, or think that push-to-talk isn't necessary).
A lot of tools that are being sold that are effective as telecommuting tools are pretty terrible and instead we've found many tools focused on online collaboration for consumers and gamers tend to be much better, which is absurd. I don't see most larger companies (I have worked in and with a few) ever considering adopting the better technologies because they're not "enterprisy", even though the vast majority can be tied into an AD at least (but maybe not single sign in).
Because we are focused on telecommuting, even if we're in a office, we are logged into voice chat with headsets (which are typically gamer headsets because they're more comfortable for long hours). I just cannot see the corporate world adopting this, for people that join my company, it's a culture shock that some find difficult to adjust to at first and within the first week, they really struggle to understand how we consider it essential (and not just an occasional thing) to be on the headset when you're working or move to the AFK channel if you're not.
I haven't known certainty like that since I was 18.
Do consultancy with pushy clients and managers for a few years to build up your confidence. That said, some people don't handle it well and end up burning out and needing treatment.
The universe is very much philosophical. Unless you're suggesting we're not part of it.
I have no idea what you're saying here, I'm not a philosophy.
And you haven't explained "why", you have merely explained "how". Your real answer to "why" is,
"I have no idea, and I don't care."
I do care, that's why I looked to learn the answer; which suprisingly didn't take that much effort.
I just don't think you're even following the logic at all. This is how succesful biological lifeforms prosper, why we don't really see other biological lifeforms that don't procreate etc. I don't really see a philosophy behind it, just natural logic.
We exist because of a sufficiently large amount of (seemingly random) events lead to the creation of biological lifeforms that worked a certain way (procreation) and became more complex over time (as opposed to biological life forms that prioritorize something else and just die out).
The why, because likely a sufficient amount of events occured that lead to the creation, which are most likely a series of random from just how big the universe is.
Which means you probably sleep pretty well. Lucky you.
I didn't lose sleep when I didn't know the answer either. I don't see why you're getting all bent out of shape over it.
So in other words, you have no idea why we are here and why we exist, so you limit yourself to the most narrow literal thought possible
I understand perfectly why we exist, the fact you don't like the answer doesn't mean it's "the most narrow literal thoguht possible", especially when you fail to address why.
As far as the original issue at hand being:
And now as an adult, you really can't answer those questions any better.
I have really answered the questions and I had no problem in doing so.
You seem pretty sure of yourself for a guy who accidently answered the wong question. What you describe is clearly "How" we are here. Next time try some of those philosophy books you probably have disdain for to explore that elusive "Why".
If you bothered reading the rest of the thread, I even elaborated on how it's the 'why', for people like you who failed to follow the logic to it's conclusion.
That is a why, biological processes. You might ask a question as to why biolgoical processes are obsessed with reproduction and progeny, it's to do with the fact that these are mostly the only succesful forms of biology. Biological entites that don't reproduce die out over a time and they essentially stop existing as they break down into simpler forms or get absorbed into others.
Usually when I tell other people, they seem disappointed with the answer.
Why do I exist?
I exist because of the result of biological processes that seek to procreate that have over time evolved into much more complex lifeforms that have self awareness.
Why am I here?
My biological function is to procreate and protect and give my spawn the best advantages so they can procreate and continue their biological function too.
I think you mis-remember what happened in the late 90's when the iMac was released. Every single PC at the time still had a 3.5" floppy and they were the primary method of saving a transportable copy of files. Yes, CD burners existed, but the drives and media were quite expensive. Many a pundit proclaimed the death of Apple at removing the absolutely essential floppy drive.
All I remember was how often people didn't use them in a computer lab because they couldn't find the "computer box" to power on and how often I saw that multi-lingual OS X system crash screen telling you to restart the computer.
of course Android fanboys will sweep that under the rug
I'm not Android fanboy and I don't really make my purchasing decisions based on specifications alone (usually it's more to do if the thing is going to last a few years).
Every year, each new iPhone is about twice as fast as the best Android competitor.
I've had an Xperia Z5 for 11 months now (which isn't the best Android competitor of the times), I don't really know how you're measuring speed, but a quick look at the specifications showed me:
Slashdot Mirror
Cygwin can't run native Ubuntu elf executables which is wehat the Linux subsystem does.
How would that help? Cygwin doesn't execute native ELF executables to begin with.
Cygwin depends on extended meta attributes though rather than just translating alone?

Oh look, one of those randomized spam messages.
You just wrote it in English though, your point is invalid.

Alright, if you want to get all word definitions. I'm going to useGoogle's definition, but I'm sure you'll want to reply with something obscure next.
Adverb:
Yep, explained that.
Explained that too.
Didn't use it in exclamation.
Noun:
Yep, explained that too
Sorry, I don't see a problem here.
Why would they want to reopen Yahoo! Briefcase again?
Never tried it, but I have been successful with 'nerdy' lines before like:
"You've got 206 bones in your body, want another?"
"Hey baby, you want to interface~ I can go at 300... baud.. that is.. if you like..?"
"Wanna see my harddrive? It's not 3.5 inches."
We're in a universe of entropy and a system developed from it. The why is the system that developed that gave purpose to otherwise entropy.
I don't see why it's so hard to understand.

The universe isn't philosophical, expecting a philosophical reason for existance with a non-philosophical unvierse seems kinda absurd.
No idea, whenever I've brought it up in person, most people say they never looked at it from that point of view.
Usually when I tell other people, they seem disappointed with the answer.

They're pretty easy questions...
I absolutely did.
I have the answer and I can answer it pretty well. Please don't project your own limitations on others.
Sounds like a great idea, when is your first release?

That's not even close to "twice as fast"...?
Can you explain your measuring process more clearly?
