  Silica is expected to survive for thousands of years in nearly any temperature, humidity, and chemical environment

  Thousands of years is very different than 1 million years.

  Even things that seem like they won’t ever change don’t last. Erosion, tectonic plate movement, natural decay of atoms.

  Even giant letters written inside of a mountain won’t last.

  Best you can do is create a simple structure that takes intelligence to create with the only purpose being to show that you once existed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are the research projects for long-term storage already deployed?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  There nothing that can stick around 1 million years.

  The 3rd installment of the 3 body problem touches on this subject.

  Did you mean to post this to 1st world problems?

  LinkedIn

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨People who have been in meetings to determine back to in office policy. What was the discussion like?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
  • finding and hiring staff will be harder
  • attracting top tier talent will be harder
  • rent will be more expensive
  • childcare will require more sick leave
  • illness will require more sick leave
  • expanding to new territories will be harder

  The c-suite evaluated the cost of rent pretty good and had an existing problem of not being able to hire above average younger talent because the work they were doing was pretty boring. Advertising a good hybrid wfh policy (once a week or once a month in-office depending on different factors) has brought in good people.

  Basically, they saw that it was bringing in cash.

  The biggest challenge has been getting new hires integrated well with existing team leaders.

  There’s also team leaders that refuse to use Teams/zoom, but also don’t answer their phone. In the past you could corner them in their office but now they sort of anchor their team. It’s mostly self-repairing as they stagnate and other teams flourish.

  Ecoflow makes a hat with panels that charge a battery pack.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Andrew Cuomo wants to become Mayor of New York City. This is his driving record.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The problem is his time is worth a lot more than those fines to him.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do movie actors or actress keep the skills they learned? Like no one would screw with Keanu after seeing all the John Wick films? And if they did would they just be fucked from the start?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No.

  I’m watching Jean Claude Van Damme’s filmography right now. He’s a trained fighter. He was taught to act, but was never really good at it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are you doing when you call someone, don't leave a voicemail or text, they call you back right away but you don't answer?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t answer calls.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are the privacy risks of exposing IP adresses?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If you trust your firewall, it’s less of a worry than exposing your license plate.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In languages which use complex written characters (such as Chinese's logographs), is there an equivalent to English's "text speak" shorthand?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s already shorthand, no?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do so many homes in rural areas have a front yard full of junk?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because it’s easier to move it from the driveway to the front yard instead of the back yard.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is WW3 more likely to accelerate or slow down anthropogenic climate change?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Think Covid but with purpose.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is WW3 more likely to accelerate or slow down anthropogenic climate change?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Depends on how many humans die.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Think of it more like a tax refund.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨So if we're just good with careening into fascism 2.0 what does the future look like?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think the book The Fourth Turning and its sequel talk about this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What would you recommend to fix this home network issue.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Another vote for Omada.

  I can’t tell from your diagram but are you using the WAN ports on any of your downstream devices? Did you disable DHCP on them? They should be providing layer2 access only. Leaving those L3 services on can cause all sorts of odd issues.

  Omada is cheap but their router isn’t simple. Their poe switch and APs work but you’ll need a controller. I use the oc200.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why was file search much faster in Windows XP than in subsequent versions?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because it didn’t index file contents back then.

  Also, storage wasn’t cheap so people deleted stuff back then.

  Also, that shit was slow back then too. Searching a file share was awful. Now it’s a magically federated index. It used to be so slow you could buy a google appliance for indexing your data.

  File a police report. Your bank isn’t going to help you without it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can an American go to Europe just for cheaper healthcare?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Bro one drug I’m on is $3500/mo. A common surgery I had a few years back was $15k.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No, even if it’s just to acknowledge I read it. I use the thumbs up.

  I’ve learned it’s socially responsible to acknowledge or respond.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That is not what I was saying at all.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What do you think the solution to selling progressive politics to young men is ?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Better marketing.

  Drop policies that have been consistent long-term losers like expanded gun control.

  Force through policies that improve their lives at the cost of others, for example, healthcare paid for by taxing billionaires

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is my GPU's "3D" usage spiking so wildly when I'm not even playing a game? It keeps throttling up and throttling down and the noise is extremely annoying⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Add the gpu or 3d column to the process list to see what’s using it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Those are just bad lawyers getting caught out.

  LLMs can do a lot work that results in lower billable hours besides generating briefs. Less hours = less work to do.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The legal industry is about to get upended by LLMs.

  Lawyers document their work every 6 minutes.

  Lawyers do a lot of writing.

  Lawyers should be ready to set aside their personal beliefs. Everyone deserves legal counsel, no matter the reason.
