Ok I agree in theory.tyat said I rented a room when younger. In a house that has 2 other older men in the house.

Yeah roommates suck. But I couldn’t afford the rent I pay now if they were not there. I was on a month to moth basis for contract and it was a room in a house instead of an apartment means something.

Renting a room isn’t that bad, renting nightly is…

But… Theft is hard!

Speed traps I can sit on my ass, get up every 20 minutes and get a bonus for how much revenue I brought in…

The other day I wanted to know when the first day of summer officially was. So I searched “first day of summer 2024”…before it would give me a big bold answer(June 20tg if anyone is curious)… Now I got a full page of car ads for model year 2024

Yes, and those are the ones I make.

See the corroding part scares me. Actual electrodes planted in the brain should never corrode. The company I work for actually makes brain implants(no, not nueralink) so I know it’s possible.

That stuff is EXPENSIVE though … So he must of cheaped out with a cheaper metal and that’s why it corroded.

I work for a medical device manufacturer and you are missing a important reason for that exception. Yes human lives are on the line. In addition WE (meaning my company) are responsible for finding out why it broke and how we will prevent other devices we make from breaking.

We make a device and say it will last 10 years, 2 years later it stops. We have to replace it, We have to investigate to the best of our ability, We have to report our findings to the government, if several cases happen We need to come up with a prevention for the future dailures(or prevention if severe enough). We have entire departments for this. It is our burden not the consumer and it’s our burden so we have enough evidence to determine root cause and final solution so we can prevent further failures.

Did you look at the source code? If not open the source and zoom out…

Wonder of we feed this into an Ai what would happen… https://github.com/mame/quine-relay

But what should I do with this robe and wizard hat?

In this case I do partially agree with it. They are for medical implants and since the expected lifetime of the device is 10 years we need to be able to support them for 10 years after the last surgery.

If the dog eats your controller which allows you to turn on and off your device we need to be able to sell you a new controller and NOT tell you “sorry, you need to spend several hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical bills to replace the device and go through a traumatic surgery to install it”

Now optimally my company would make a modern program that duplicates the technology but is compatible with modern computers but since are no longer making money on these old devices they don’t want to invest the time and money. So yeah…

I think it was 2017 we got rid of our last system running freedos in a console since the original program required do to operate…

I work in a field that is considered by many high tech. I have personally seen a system in use today that duel boots windows 2000 and windows 98.

The product it’s used by is old generations and the system does not have any network access but still must be supported by government regulation for several more years…

Yeah… Which is 100x more complicated cause Microsoft has no idea how to name consoles

I didn’t even consider incorporating toy distribution… At what levels should kids get a small gift(a toy or game) vs a large gift(bike, game system etc).

In a real world scenario I would probably spilt this between 2 databases… One for kids (“with a nice score of 2 you get a toy of value 4 or less”) and one for toys (“the toys available with a value less than 4 are…”)

All I’m going to say is I still remember “correcthorsebatterrystaple”…

I mean in a certain light, christmas presents are a yearly bonus for children and Santa checking his list is a management review of the child’s performance…

Actually I think there should be a intermediary table as a history of activities of each child. Like child table is I’d, name, age, address, and naughty/nice value, activities would be Id, description, and good/bad value. Then a history table of ID, child_id, activity_id. So santa can recalculate a child’s naughty/nice value to “check it twice”

I think you would have a table of “activities” with a value of how good/bad each is. So like cleaning your room would be +5 but crying in a store because mommy wouldn’t buy you a toy would be - 15. Then you have a table for children and each child starts with 0 in January and then for each activity the child does there naughty/nice value gers adjusted. December 24 Santa runs a query on the dB and gets a list of every child with a positive value.

Keep in mind I currently feel sick and put about 5 minutes of thought into thus.

This actually gave me an idea. Over break I wanted to practice dB design and entity framework. Designing a database and interface for santa to track kids naughty or nice could be a fun/interesting way of doing it.

You are almost completely correct. It does have wireless charging but like your cell phone eventually the life of a rechargeable battery wears and needs to be replaced.

That you are wrong about the last part. Our latest two generations actually use ipads for the doctors and iphones for the patient. I don’t know too much about the security on them as that’s my area of knowledge. That said unlike a pacemaker our devices don’t keep people alive. They lessen movement disorders and reduce pain but people won’t die if they get turned off.
