...but no one is making this racist except those trying to cause arguments, and those who don't understand what women are saying.

Yes, if someone said something racist and meant it, they'd be a racist. Women are not doing that.

Wind feels so much stronger than 20 years ago, at least in Michigan USA.

I don't suppose anyone knows of a site that has wind speed plotted over time? I found a NASA site, but it's difficult to compare years.

Well, you see, first off you need a microservice to distinguish between those 2 types of step, then you need separate microservices to handle storing those values. Then you need a GraphQL database in a multi zone Kubernetes cluster as a backend...

Ugh I feel dirty saying all that.

PC Spotify -> Schiit Modi -> Schiit Vali 2 -> PreSonus Eris E4.5 speakers.

Or

Pixel 8 Pro Spotify -> "TempoTec Sonata HD PRO" USB DAC -> Meze 99 Classic headphones.

Does anyone think it's worth moving to Tidal for my music?

Also, I'm running out of space on my desk. I can put the stack of Schiit on top of a speaker with minimal effects, right?

Love the Meze 99 Classics, worth every penny!

Not trying to say your temperature is not brutal, single digit Celsius can be really nasty for humans. In Michigan in the USA, it can reach -20c in winter, and -40 with high wind chill. You learn to layer and use wind proof outer layers very quickly!

I wasn't offended at all, I was just sympathizing with you, but I must have expressed it poorly because I got those downvotes.

I really liked reading this thread, thank you for making it!

In the USA, there's a huge difference in winter temperatures across the country. In Florida they might consider it cold if it's 10 Celsius, and in Minnesota that would be considered very warm! It's really weird how much the human body can adapt and get used to a temperature. Personally I like it best at 50 fahrenheit / 10 Celsius.

Keep on making posts!

I don't. I'm on painkillers long term, and mixing them with alcohol is not recommended. However, I didn't really like drinking before, and I don't miss it now.

I want an electric Subaru Outback or Forester. Something that can be driven off road to a campground, pull a trailer if needed, and has enough range to get me from Ann Arbor to the upper peninsula with minimal charging. Seats and trunk that I can hose out after a muddy dog park excursion would be great too.

Too soon, man, too soon.

Do you often hear the ringing of switching power supplies and devices when you are in a quiet space?

I'm curious, how many people are aware of these sounds. I have designed, etched, and built my own switching power supplies along with winding my own transformers. I am aware of the source of the noise. So, does anyone else hear these high frequency sounds regularly?

bloopernova ,
@bloopernova@programming.dev avatar

Yes, often. It doesn't really bother me that much, plus tinnitus generally overwhelms those sounds.

bloopernova ,
@bloopernova@programming.dev avatar

I've been trying some of the tinnitus masking videos from "Dale Snale". It's been hit and miss though, some of the frequencies closest to my own have actually made it worse! So I've been trying stuff further away from the 13KHz region.

There's a massive amount of hype right now, much like everything was blockchains for a while.

AI/ML is not able to replace a programmer, especially not a senior engineer. Right now I'd advise you do your job well and hang tight for a couple of years to see how things shake out.
