An unrealized capital gain being "nothing but downside" is the possibly the most charitable spin of an interpretation. If you can't support the carrying cost of your private property, you sell it, just as you would with a car

It's unclear what the advantages of borosilicate are from this discussion. Is it merely the lightness? Either-or would seem to solve the problem of microplastic release on microwaving.

I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not.

Can a temperature sensor have experiences? It's stateless. Maybe that's an element to it. To revise, inputs and outputs with some concept of statefulness.

Bacteria using their flagella to move away from danger seems like a conscious decision to me. It's analogous to the "Are viruses life?" question, where on the fringe it does get a bit more interesting. Any poorly defined term

I don't see why people struggle with consciousness. I've found it to be concrete. It's the experience of having inputs (vision/hearing/etc) and outputs (response to stimuli). Whether or not you're actively awar

Most (successful) paths lead to balkanization. Just one acquisition can do it, much less 2 or N more. And the pace of these changes can outpace your ability to respond to it, which makes fighting it a losing battle.

If some people want to work places where everyone works in-office, it seems reasonable to permit that as option. If the marketplace has a gradient of options, workers can vote with their feet. We don't have the ability to say "eve

Is it the fault of the thought leader, or the loads of juniors asked to implement the architecture but don't really understand it? If everyone had better system design knowledge, it wouldn't be so bad. 90% of the engineers in my o

Won't machine learning largely solve this problem? Fine, don't provide an API, but I can extract a useful JSON document from your HTML representation.

I am unsurprised that earlier-in-week have more accept's than later-in-week. Weekends are a reset.

The more interesting thing is that, because the dollar has no serious reserve status competitor, the maintainers of the currency can be less restrictive in its management, and people can whine about it, but since there is no alternative, th

If everyone could accessibly own a home free and clear, there'd be less incentive to work; it's a household's largest expense. That and employed-provided health care coverage.

You could take away Europe's social safety net and wages would still be lower. There is no equivalent to Silicon Valley there which creates the competition that bids up salaries.

Practically, for your average well-to-do white collar worker, the additional $20k in interest payments might equate to 10% of gross income. The pain of the additional expense is certainly non-zero, but it isn't necessarily prohibitive.

The implied 3.9% probability is lacking context, since reaching the debt ceiling is a fairly regular occurrence. Is this probability any different from previous times is what should we should be asking.

The cat and mouse iteration will be using ChatGPT integrated with Webdriver to slowly type the essay, writing a prompt that says "make occasional mistakes", etc.

At-will employment isn't a valid reason to not care about what you do. The armchair theory is the emotional investment would still lead to promotions, higher raises, etc than someone who otherwise wouldn't be. The macroeconomic cl

If you care about the products, the emotional investment in your work might propel your income, which is the reason why you're working in the first place, so ostensibly a follow-on goal of that might be to raise your income.

Still wouldn't fix the problem of a creditor reporting a delinquent payment to a credit bureau, and it's hard to know if that would happen up front. I don't think Apple's solution here comes risk free, but I see your poi

For individuals who aren't price sensitive, the juice isn't worth the squeeze because rent hikes outside the state have been higher. I might save a few hundred dollars a month. It doesn't meaningfully change the financial sit

The biggest benefit, which I haven't found much of a practical need for, is you can continue to emit 1...n times, whereas a Promise only resolves once. Since it's an indeterminate number of times, you need to subscribe and unsubsc

Operationally lax companies aren't a panacea either. Constantly answering 2AM pages because you can't reliably ship working software wears people down. Am I understanding what is meant by operational rigor correctly? Life is easie

Most mid-level and senior people have not learned the skills to mentor while working remotely. It's just tougher to have off-the-cuff conversations. With fewer of those opportunities, that means what could've been a 5 minute conve

Not a fan. The good thing about UPC is it shows a human-readable serialized representation: it shows the UPC number. So I can pick up an item off the shelf and know exactly what it is: I can cross-check the UPC number against the shelf labe
