Idk phones are a lot better these days. My 14 Pro is going very strong. I’m not to 5 years yet, but think it’s got 1-2 years left easily, maybe more.
The battery is definitely not as good as new, but it easily lasts a day, which is all you really need.
And no complaints about performance either. Honestly there’s nothing about the new phones that appeals to me.
Paid by whom? Lmao how completely bizarre.
That’s not true. It’s only a competition if we have a decent chance at winning.
We could switch to Big Gulp sizing?
Yeah I’ve done that in a few cases where python is the better tool for the job (pulling new data, cleaning up in a consistent way, and generating reports), but it’s not a great solution for certain workstreams. Especially if you are collaborating with other people who aren’t tech savvy
Probably. Even the Mac version of Office is slightly shittier.
And it works. I’d love to have a Mac at work, but I absolutely need the windows version of excel to do my job effectively
I’ve tried a bunch of spreadsheet programs. They are all painful to use compared to excel.
Sure, you can type up some basic calcs in LibreOffice or Numbers or whatever, but none of these could replicate the stuff I do daily for work in excel unfortunately.
That said, the lack of suitable alternatives did get me to learn Python for personal use. And that opened up a whole new world for things I do at work too. Things that would have been a headache in excel are a couple lines in Python. It’s great (obviously very different use cases from typical spreadsheets)
Oh I’m not talking about those gambling sites. That’s just my personal view on the odds for this race.
Lot of support for Talarico - I’ve seen maybe 30+ Talarico signs for every Paxton sign (I’ve seen only one Paxton sign so far…)
But I just still think the guy with an R next to his name will win.
I’d say it’s the best chance in decades, but Talarico is still <50%.
It is not, in fact, mathing.
Spanish is incredibly easy to pronounce though? There are only a couple things different than English and none of those differences are relevant for Rocinante. It’s also consistent in pronunciation, unlike English.
It’s not a technicality. We’re discussing whether chess is a “solved game” or not.
That’s a much different standard than whether Stockfish can reliably beat Magnus Carlsen. Of course the engines are better than humans. They have been for a long time at this point.
Chess is not a solved game. If there was a bot that could provably always draw, that would mean it’s solved (as a draw). To be clear, I’m not saying that the bot would just have a perfect drawing record - I’m saying that it literally could never lose, even when playing against the absolute best possible moves.
This is hilarious
And N should be Not (Knot) or Nome (Gnome)
No there is no algorithm that can guarantee a draw.
Same in the US. It’s called a homestead exemption
Get a leash! You want another gorilla to get shot?
I have never viewed it as a truck stop. It’s just an inconveniently oversized and busy gas station with very nice bathrooms.
It’s a great place to stop if you need to be assured a clean toilet. It’s crazy overhyped as a destination in and of itself though. And a ton of the stuff there is overpriced.
Wtf are you talking about
I have the premium lite or whatever. If a video is coded as a “music video”, they still have commercials.
Total bullshit. First, why is that a distinction? I should get commercial free regardless of the type of video.
Second, they consider a lot of normal videos to be “music videos”. Basically if there is a substantial amount of music, it’s a “music video”. This includes visualizations with generic music in the background.
Third, I’ve still gotten some ads on mobile for some reason. It’s crazy to me.
