  • LK-99 is a room temperature superconductor. It’s a big deal, because it means that energy can be transferred with 0 loss and it doesn’t require loads of cooling to maintain that property (unlike “traditional superconductors” that need liquid nitrogen and other cooling to have that property). An analogy would be like if you got paid all of your paycheck all the time instead of having taxes taken out. The money you get paid is energy and the loss is taxes

    There’s controversy that LK-99 can’t be replicated

    Going over to the programming side, sometimes you’ll work on a feature and when others go test it, it doesn’t work. A common excuse heard is “well, it works on my machine”. Docker containers solve that problem by essentially (but not really) making a copy of “my machine” and letting people run the program/feature on that copy

    So the joke is, if the korean researchers were able to create it in their lab environment (their machine), why don’t they just make a copy of their lab and let others use it

    this is a very gross oversimplification, so feel free to suggest any corrections


  • It would probably be Cane’s, because I eat there a fair amount and it’s like B-tier fried chicken for an okay price. If we wanna go international, then it’s Kyochon. It’s a Korean Fried Chicken chain with 1 location in America and a bunch in Korea

    Second would either be McDonalds or Dairy Queen for their McFlurry/blizzard or their super artificial ice cream. Honestly, I know there is better ice cream, but I have an Anton Ego flashback (from Ratatouille) whenever I take a bite/lick of ice cream and am reminded of the trips I took with my mom when we walked over to Dairy Queen together




  • I agree with the sentiment, but there is something about the way that it’s written makes me want to disagree with the author. I think it’s their tone that they’re using in their writing.

    Anyways, a part of this is confirming to me that the people calling for RTO are surprised at the outcome when they face attrition and recruitment trouble. There’s no way that when they call for RTO nowadays that they shouldn’t expect those problems.

    If you’re keeping compensation and benefits the same, but take away WFH, don’t be surprised when people jump for the same job with WFH. You need to account for the lack of WFH with something (a lot more money)



  • Mlem has been super buggy for me. As in I’ll see the same 5 posts repeated over and over. Honestly, the best part about Mlem is that it makes me use my phone less and less

    Memmy is getting there tho. Memmy feels close to Apollo. I hope it grows beyond a 1:1 clone of Apollo and tries to get the finishing touches for Lemmy that wouldn’t be seen on Reddit
