You still need to engage with the major social networks to build up traffic to your own domain name. Otherwise, posting on your blog is like talking to a brick wall. You can choose where you publish, but there's no escaping the leverag

There's a meaningful difference between putting <10% of your portfolio into a speculative investment versus 100%. If your speculative investments moon anyways, 10% * a large number = still a large number, and you didn't bet the

Since you're aware of the inflation, you might be subconsciously substituting more affordable products, or your particular basket of goods hasn't experienced as much compared to the indexed basket, or both.

Is Bitcoin is as wasteful as say, poor zoning rules where N million Americans have to commute to job centers from suburbia, burning Y gallons of gas per year? We often talk about the environmental impacts of Bitcoin but look at how grotesqu

What is meant by paycheck-to-paycheck? If a worker has HSA/401k/ESPP/401k MBR deductions, they have artificially made their paycheck small. The net amount remaining goes covers living expenses, and whatever is left might be s

The idea of having to transport a tray -- a large, bulky awkward item -- just so I can utilize it at the cafeteria seems more inconvenient than foregoing the benefits of having it while in the cafe.

Where was this thinking when it came to applying trillions of dollars in monetary policy? We're supposed to cautious with interest rate hikes, yet free with the money printer. Quite the double standard I'd say.

Honestly, crypto might just be a measure of excess liquidity in the financial system. If people could get their guaranteed 7% returns in bonds, that might suffice for enough folks. Central banking policy has vacuumed up the safe asset class

How might one compare and contrast this solution with tools like Storybook paired with Chromatic? This looks fantastic and I love seeing innovation in this space; UI testing is challenging for teams who lean on these tools so they can focus

One disconnect for me is the divergence of worker productivity metrics and very low GDP. How is it that workers can be twice as productive as say 2 decades ago but last decade's GDP growth is only +1.7%? People are doing more, but gett

It might be premature, but it seems like the cat is out the bag, especially if it means lower operating costs for businesses. Everything in the near future points to cash-flow positive businesses being the Wall Street darlings. Being unprof

Depends on factors we can't predict. Increasing the cost of capital should ease the inflation. But will that happen fast enough is a decision for policymakers.

Is this market bigger than I might be thinking it to be? It's a cool feature, but my investor hat seems less thrilled. It seems expensive and seldom used. But the profit margins could be good.

So the moment a single library author doesn't support a target runtime I have, I have to pre-process. It seems to further the point that pre-processing is a critical step for many that isn't going away. Some projects like Angular

I can't do much without some degree of pre-processing. The browser can't resolve NodeJS-style require's, so I'll need a bundler to serve my app in a manner the browser can understand. I imagine most use cases today face

The most common thing is nobody owns the decision. Someone (an engineer) chose an implementation detail and nobody thought about it any sooner. Then these things pile up in interesting ways over time. Rarely is it "the engineers hands

It's best to let hot foods cool a little bit before moving them to the refrigerator. They can be so hot that they'll warm up surrounding items, or in the freezer, you might end up actually thawing anything adjacent.
