I could squint a little and make a case that this represents a CEO who is about to spend a shitload of company money on AI (or any anti-human venture) rather than employees.

I spent an hour today on a webinar about how to optimize token usage with more than 500 other participants from the company I work for. Because billing is about to have its come-to-Jesus moment.
Well, I’m not using a vacation day. So I’m cleaning out the garage and staying “online”.
Material themes definitely tend to be softer. I hate them as a rule.
Gruvbox material fg0 definition
Edit:
Surprisingly, this passes a basic accessibility check. https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/?fcolor=654735&bcolor=F9F5D7
“Hard” (high contrast) should use the bg0_h value for the background: #f9f5d7 or rgb(249,245,215).
This is a light “off white”. If you have blue blocking mode or a night color mode enabled, the yellowing effect will be exaggerated.
For what is worth, I don’t think gruvbox makes a good light theme because it’s pretty low contrast especially compared to a lot of more recent themes. I say this as a die hard gruvbox dark user.

Technology@lemmy.ml•Sodium-ion EV battery breakthrough delivers 11-min charging and 450 km range
2·3 months agoI like the way you think, but it’s not quite realistic. This 4c charge means 4x the battery capacity (45kwh) in an hour as a charge rate. If my whiskey addled math pencils out, that’s something like a 480v at ~100A DC (if we’re using the usual 120V multiplier), so, not your average generator. Not exactly a Chevy Volt kind of situation.
But it’s approaching something you can charge in a “gas station like stop” with reasonable range.

Technology@lemmy.ml•Meta shuts down Metaverse after $80 billion loss, ends Horizon Worlds era
30·3 months agoGotta pad that balance sheet with losses. Can’t be paying taxes if you can write off speculative ventures that just might
pay offfund other misadventures.
That’s basically the story of my desktop too.
3rd PSU, 3rd motherboard and processor, 3rd graphics card, case fans, etc., but I still have the original dvd drive (which is unplugged). All in a BTX Antec P180 case I bought in 2007. The power button keeps falling out now, so it might be time to replace it too. But with the price of ram, it’ll be a straight parts swap.
Bold of you to assume people/companies test backups more than once.
Case in point: I once got instructed to “enable EBS snapshots” for customer deployments to meet a new backup requirement. Disaster recovery was a completely different feature we only kind of got to a couple years later and afaik, remains manual to this day.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•I may be getting drunk/high with a friend in the near future, what are some things to consider and watch out for?
4·5 months agoGood advice here.
The faster you drink, the drunker you get and the longer it takes to sober up. Your liver doesn’t hurry things along just because you were dumb. It’s a linear processing speed. And don’t take any meds that dunk on your liver either. No acetaminophen/paracetamol.
And when your liver is busy with alcohol, it isn’t doing glucose (fat metabolism things) management. You’re likely to have low blood sugar if you don’t eat after drinking.
For weed: maybe you’ll be unfortunate like me and have a vasovagal syncope response (fainting). Alcohol enhances the effect.

This is the debate we had when redoing our kitchen. It hurt me to add $8k to the bill (the difference) just for the fridge, but it really is genuinely a different experience. At least it came with a 6 year manufacturer warranty too.
The drawers glide smoothly on real hinges with a soft close, the shelves are individually lit and glass, what plastic there is is thicker and smoother. Everything is easy to adjust or remove for cleaning. It even has a cartridge that removes ethylene gas and produce stays noticeably much fresher.
And as a bonus, I got to support a union manufacturer in the US (subzero).

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•My king of all junk boxes, 4 TB snapraid + mergerfs disk hub. The temperature is okay, the speed is good! all connected to RPi4.English
3·6 months agoLove it. Gives a new meaning to JBOD too: junk box of disks!
Layers, intentional or not.

I see. Yeah, that compose file is gross unless you’re running this on a dedicated vps, and even then…
I haven’t run snikket before, but it looks straightforward to me. Maybe the documentation has improved?
Tiling WM and Gruvbox. Doesn’t get any better!

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Working in a large corporation is a place where you get paid for
7·8 months agoYeah, it is pretty great!
I’m building software to bridge an in house legacy system and a CLI program. It has 1 partial restful API endpoint (no delete, no patch/put). But it does have 3 cyber security suites including one that wraps the runtime. It is not a public API.
I have 4 meetings a week.
Did I mention I work from home?


Fun fact: “careering” is the globally acceptable term. “Careening” used in this sense, is US specific.
