If you look at the revenue, number of employees and cost of living in the area it isn't so hard to calculate a sensible salary. The weird thing in the west are these MBA types who feel they must force down labor cost even if it makes n

I ponder this kind of things from time to time. This one makes a very enjoyable puzzle because it is extremely simply to move people on a conveyor or a rolling platform but amazingly complicated to get them on and off if you want to run it

My thought was that we should develop a good DSL to design pensions. You obviously cant have a formula with more money coming out than going in. Pensions can gradually scale up and down depending on all factors. It isn't even hard to c

Unless you believe in the extinction of bad people the burden of restoring normality is for everyone else. Those who are not part of the solution are not part of the problem, they are the problem. You cant have the problem without them and

I'm no nutritional expert but from what I understand: If you look at traditional food people ate very different around the world but by some miracle all of those traditional diets cover all angles of nutrition. It seems to suggest that

What does "can not" even mean in this context? You could refuse to use an e-bike just like you could refuse to use an expensive bicycle. Perhaps more interesting, a lot of people I know do train but don't push themselves to t

You could wrap it in disclaimers of experimental technology. Just describe the exact content on the tin. It seems fine to state one might get a free pony if it doesn't rain for 1000 days.

This is the way. There is a video from the lock pick lawyer where he receives a padlock in the mail with so much tape that it takes him whole minutes to unpack. Concrete is nice, other options are piles of soil or brick in front of the door

The numbers for Elbonia are unlike the US but you can use numbers to say all kinds of magical things. US median income $75,000 top 10% $149000 top 5% $352000 Which is 203000 more, therefore half of the top 10% must earn $101500 less than $1

I've done a lot of experiments. Most turned out wonderful ways to ruin readability. (I combine those to highlight a single line of code in an article to troll the reader) It is a huge problem that we are so used to what we have. I can
