State Rep is corpo bitch. Better take the complain to porn hub, they would then order state bitch to fix it.
- Comment on What is the argument for making poor/working class folks shoulder the burden of taxes? 2 weeks ago:
And that’s the definition of capitalist vs working class. A top surgeon makes a lot of money yes, but they are still working class because their main income is from salary.
Earning a big salary or buying some stocks don’t make anyone a capitalist. Being the owner of Johnson and Johnson, hiring an administrator and not working a day in your life does. And that’s the kind of people who get richer with any crisis, holds the biggest part of Johnson and Johnson profits, and pays no tax at all.

That’s cool
In most fields " so fast that’s instantaneous" is pretty fast, but in nuclear and quantum physics that’s a whole new level.
What is the order of magnitude of your " too fast ”? I will invert that to state the bandwidth in Hertz.

Oh mate I love sleeping in hammock, it takes some technique but it’s the best. I haven’t done that in 20 years so I may need extra research to be able to stand up now.
Unfortunately I can’t hang one where I live, the fence is not strong enough and I’m renting.

Same with backyard. None of my neighbors are ever in their backyard. How do I know? If it’s not raining and it’s above 20c very likely I am in mine.

Just because it’s post scarcity and money is not pursued is not enough. You still need significant economic activity to put everything together, and big part of that is human labor.
About representing humanity that’s a politics side, does most of humanity recognize you? Piss off the federation president and get sent to found your own colony where you get to represent.

It’s the hero myth that came to life at the time of Beethoven, of a misunderstood genius. Yes that guy was pretty good at what he did, but it was simply that he got progressively deaf and couldn’t socialize with people anymore.
From that to marvel movies stereotype of one man prodigy and media idolizing individuals with sob stories.
Look at Nobel prizes in science, they’re often multiple names, and behind each names there’s countless decades of graduate students contributions and their teams.

You don’t need to go that far. I’m only familiar with one password manager but it does create email aliases when you’re signing up, though I never tried.
The other thing you can do if you have Gmail , the plus sign is used to create aliases. If your email is foo@gmail.com, you will also receive emails automatically for foo+bar@gmail.com

Mechanical things suffer a lot of stress from turning on/off. But even spinning disk storage turns off automatically if desktop is idle for a certain time, it’s a balance between switch vs continuous operation, they have overlapping kinds of wear and tear.
Top of mind, you can expect 10k cycles from typical buttons and it’s hard to be less complex than a button. Because metal parts are subject to fatigue.
Flash based drives would certainly fail faster or slower depending on the number of write bytes over its life.
Then there’s erosion caused by electrons, which is my biggest suspect for the problems of last generation of Intel CPUs.

Oh dang, a cheap driver is probably $0.50 cheaper than a half decent one that can take the hit.
- Comment on How come LED Light Bulbs only last for about 2-3 Years? 1 month ago:
As an EE graduate I want to hear more about what dirt means and what driver can be affected by it. I’d expect power electronics to stand 100% over voltage over short periods and easy 20% long term, which would blow up lots of other things on the house before the driver or the LED starts performing worse.
- Comment on How come LED Light Bulbs only last for about 2-3 Years? 1 month ago:
LEDs can take quite a beating. The only thing that degrades then is being on, and being hot. For all purposes unless it’s inside a restaurant kitchen or they’re on, they’re not hot.
Other packaged electronic components follow the same rules. Except wires and solder that can oxidize without being used.
So no, I think that’s a grift if you can’t reach 5 years. When domestic LED lighting was in infancy we’d hear all power LEDs, like for cars, should last 10 years.
