Work at a normal company, not some preposterous place full of nutjobs. I negotiated and work 4 days a week.

Did the shares jump just because there are many ETFs, including some big ones, that track the S&P500? I imagine those funds had to sell shares in whatever stocks were leaving the index, and buy shares in Dell&Palantir.

People are wild with how many tabs they leave open. I never needed any of the advanced tab features or add-ons because I actually close tabs! I only leave a tab open if I’m still actively using it. If I need to remember a tab I save the url

How many gallons of water can you desalinate and pump if you only operate during the magic lump? How much sewage can you treat?

I would love to teach these kinds of sessions. But I have to have the time, it has to be a subject I know well, and I need to be fairly compensated. Sorry, not an AI expert.

I use this also. I have some issues with it, but I won't bother to change unless I find something significantly better. The feature I love most is being able to filter feed items based on content. This is great for sites that report on

Yes. I had a very good job. If I became unemployed I would have no concerns about going back to that job if I had to. However, I should not have stayed there as long as I did. I kept looking at friends and family and seeing how their jobs w

This is the same idea that I have been spreading. There is one problem with this idea. The advertising isn't just a means to convince fans to gamble. It's also the way that the gambling revenues are shared. If not for buying ads,

We have many studies that show speeding is dangerous. Sounds like this system is very effective at discouraging speeding. Until I see studies showing more people are dying on road because of this system than because of speeding, sounds like

I mean, what do you expect? If you took all the software engineers on this site and assigned them to develop that feature, how many would be able to do it better? I imagine most won’t be able to even begin without spending a lot of time stu

We’ve taking it for granted that every company has a web site. But what purpose to web sites serve for companies? There’s marketing, obviously, advertising what the company does. There’s e-commerce, directly selling the company’s products.

If somehow this happens, the big question is, how many splits? How many lines do they draw, and where do they draw them? Clearly they want to separate search and advertising, as that was the crux of the case. But advertising is the only pla

I don't know what the answer is, but I can tell you that your concerns are legitimate. Even in the year 2000 when I was in college one of my friends had a roommate that played the MMORPG Asheron's Call with basically all of their

I agree that I’ve fall out of love with soft deletes, but I don’t agree with their alternative of creating an audit log in the application layer. Instead, what I like to do is create the audit trail entirely within the database using trigge

We can debate another time whether or not it’s good for real estate, a necessity for life, should also be a financial instrument. Right now in the US, and most other countries, it is. As long as it is being treated as an investment, that me

There's the pain of having an unfilled position with work that isn't getting done. There's also the pain of making the wrong hire and having to let someone go. Most of the people I've spoken with on this issue find the l

The peer reviewers are almost all people who live in the same culture of alcohol. So when a study counts people who only drink 11 times a year as basically abstaining, that makes perfect sense to them.

We want to guarantee for every human on the planet the right to food, water, shelter, health care, and education. Giving everyone enough money to buy all those things themselves is one way to do it. Raising funds (taxes) and then providing

The author's premise is wrong. The real question is, how much work is there to do? Thanks to automation and other factors we only need a certain number of people to work. At some point, more people helping doesn't actually increas

Generally when you are hosting videos you don’t pick one set of transcoding settings and stick with that. You transcode many many renditions and then serve up the appropriate one depending on the client. It’s quite difficult and expensive i

This person is missing the point of wealth. Wealth isn't about the number of dollars. It doesn't matter that the wealth of all the billionaires combined is less than what the government spends in a year. The problem is that when s

Exactly. I find it hilarious the problem is with only i9. The i9s cost hundreds more than the i7s and don’t seem to be significantly better for any real world usage. There are just those people out there who have an entire hobby of getting

I got the iPhone 3G, 4, 5, 6, and 7 at release. New phone every two years like clockwork. Then I got the 12 mini because finally, a small phone again. Also the 7 was nearing the end of support. I still have the 12 mini. I will keep it until

The thing that put me off of Rye is that it strongly encourages you to use non-standard Python builds. From their philosophy page: https://rye.astral.sh/philosophy/ > No Python Binary Distributions: CPython builds f

I predicted years ago they would make a CPU and you would be able to buy an All-NVidia PC. I think the reason that hasn't happened is because of the failed purchase of ARM. And looking at the market dominance of NVidia, it seems they w

It’s great to add support for 7z and such, but there may be a problem. My friends in game dev frequently work with large files. They often bundle and compress them for storage and sharing. They were happy to hear that Windows would add supp

For my current job I negotiated that I would work four days (32 hours) per week, in exchange for less compensation. It's still plenty of money, just less than I could be making elsewhere. I'm not saying it couldn't be better,

It’s bad by design. Not because there is a conspiracy and they twirled their mustaches and made it bad on purpose. It’s bad by design, because what incentive is there for any Google employees to make it better? It won’t get them promotions,
