And if you really want to up your game a treadmill desk has been an amazing upgrade. If I just live my typical WFH life I am usually hitting a dismal 2k steps a day. Doing two 45 min to an hour work sessions walking at the treadmill desk ha

And even if you’re the one setting deadlines, if the powers that be are punishing people over any missed deadlines you’ll quickly learn to set deadlines to at least 3x the amount of time you think something will take.

I don’t know if you’ve used a recent paperwhite but they’ve gotten very responsive. I have the newest paperwhite (prior to the one announced here) and it is incredibly fast and zippy compared to the kindles of old. And they claim the new on

At the very least you should have to go to a physical location like a casino, having this stuff in your pocket at all times is insane.

Chase really has the worst phone customer service. I foolishly used one of their 0% interest promos to buy some hardware and when I was charged interest anyway due to their screwup in how my payment was applied he told me: > “since you h

Drug prices aren’t a zero sum game. Drugs and software are very similar economically, high upfront cost and then almost zero marginal cost afterwards. The prices private insurance pays will not be impacted because there are is not some huge

You’re just making my point, it was a compromise for the time that no sane person would include in a country or constitution started from scratch today. There’s a reason no other country on earth uses such a ridiculous system. It is just te

Yep, there’s a reason we didn’t give Germany and Japan our “exceptional” electoral college system. Tech debt exists in constitutional law as well.

Somehow people can understand the supply and demand mechanics when it comes to banning Airbnb but suddenly that understanding disappears when it comes to building more supply.

That’s part of it but the two party system is more downstream of the specific idiosyncrasies of the electoral college with it’s bizarre rules that end up with state delegations choosing a winner if no one wins an absolute majority of electo

This really isn’t a similar comparison, Dutch infrastructure is built to prioritize making cycling safe at every decision point. Whereas you’d be someone with a death wish to be riding without a helmet in most places in the US.

You obviously haven’t been paying attention as these rule making processes started literally years ago that’s how much red tape there is to get through. And even if what you are saying was true (it isn’t) isn’t that the entire argument for

Because developer productivity doesn't matter that much to big companies regardless of what they say. Their margins are high, and it's why google can have an entire team making sure their AI can't generate images of white peo

I watched it as well. All nuance on the topic has been obliterated by the topic being absorbed into the larger culture war, but above anything it just wasn't funny. On net, the people calling Chapelle out are more correct than his defe

As a recovered depressed person who went on SSRIs and through therapy to recover, this is nonsense. A depressed person’s view is completely warped from reality. One of the key parts of cognitive behavioral therapy is slowly training yoursel

This is about the same logic as "How did Trump get elected I don't know a single person that voted for him" I am very optimistic about our future economically and socially. So you can add that data point.

An American law enforcement agency requesting data from an American company is a far cry from "chasing a foreign national around the world". I think it's a waste of time as much as anyone else but Sci-hub is clearly against U

And was there some great selective enforcement of the mask mandate to target a political group and lock them up? No. It wasn't enforced by the state at all.
