  • “whatever you do don’t forget to check the big tab is on the left and the little tab is on the right, even if you get it backwards it won’t close as a safety precaution.”

    Gets call of machine not working in another country, sends out consultant.

    Big tab is on the right, little tab is on the left and the entire tray has been forced into position because “it wasn’t closing properly so we had to apply a lot of force”

    Professionals with confidence are the absolute worst, I tell ever consultant or technician that comes into my lab “I’ll be in the corner if you need me to grab you any supplies or coffee, do you mind if I ask questions as you go so I can have a better understanding of what’s going on with this magical box”. I like to think they appreciate me.





  • Even the different problems between the LCD and OLED models make me content for valve to take it slow.

    Don’t diminish the support with multiple sku’s, work on fixing the small but persistent problems with the current operating system, let other companies keep the hardware manufacturers pushing forward, continue making sure the operating system works well on the more modern hardware, and release a single product when the time is right.

    There should be no decimal after the deck 2, keep the product focused, don’t divide your labor and multiply your potential bugs.

    Also please have your operating system developers try using the deck interface for things besides gaming, trading, forum posting and even browsing the store is hampered by easily replicable bugs.





  • As a biologist,

    We can’t even get the actions of water bears down.

    We have the entire genetic code and brain mapping of a fruit fly, and can get, very slow, good guesses about how they respond to very basic stimulus.

    Let’s not even get into epigenetics.

    I would never downplay the importance or difficulty of psychology.

    But I get nothing but kicks on this house of “science” memes.



  • Feynman, taught me it’s okay to question people, people grow when they’re questioned, and it isn’t wrong to speak up when you don’t know something even if everyone else seems to know that thing, because maybe group think has everyone assuming everybody else knows what’s going on, and that’s when shit can go seriously wrong.

    Terrible pop science, and people who are happily ignorant as long as it’s for the lulz.

    I’ve studied enough oceanography to know that this is bullshit.

    But if you want a community that isn’t critical of bullshit, well there are plenty of religious organizations that would love you membership.

    Sorry, what?? There are no hydro thermal vents at the surface of the ocean???

    Fucking biologist needs to go back to school.

    There’s no life at hydro thermal vents at the surface of the ocean because there are much safer and more reliable ways to get energy, but there are absolutely areas of active geothermal extremes at the surface of the ocean.

    Hell there are hydro thermal vent remnants in the coastal ranges above sea level.
