When given the choice, don’t do business with companies with a history of treating people like garbage—be those people their customers, employees, or innocent bystanders. I’d no sooner recommend new business use GoDaddy than Wells Fargo.

Ooof. I'd seriously considered buying in on a Helium miner, too.

> decentralized file storage, lending protocols, stablecoins (Dai in particular) I mean...yeah! Go builders! I wish you success. But I have my doubts around these ones. Decentralized file storage seems maybe to be better addressed by IPF

LTspice at least had a gui! I remember sketching schematics by hand, marking up nodes with names, then feeding plaintext into PSpice. But it worked great!

Giving credit where it's due: stretching to support an argument that isn't your own & doesn't align with your values is a lot of what makes this place great :D

True; however, this was already the direction things were headed for said regimes as much of the world has begun to focus on energy security. On the upside, perhaps the lowered long-term demand for fossil fuels will reduce the risk of addit

It's kind of a harm reduction-style argument. The premise here is that banning smoking for a group more likely to already be addicted might be a non-starter, so let's at least reduce harm where we can. A fairer way might be to say

This is a totally reasonable point. Interestingly, so is its inversion: "How thoughtful of the grown ups to prevent harm to other people, even knowing it won't save themselves."

`unless` is great. Rubocop (used everywhere) would flag and offer to autocorrect this title for the double-negation.

Maybe? Depends on what you need personally. If you need a job _now_, by all means, keep going. Just know that the system isn't as friendly right now, so it's not your fault when things are hard. If you've got the runway to ta

If you're having trouble finding new work, know that the turn of the year is _always_ slow, every year. Hiring tends to pick up mid- to late January.

As a reminder to developers and tech workers that are accustomed to the benefits of working in one of the more flexible and well-compensated fields for traditional employment, if Elon succeeds with his management style at Twitter—nay, even

Amazon-the-store is mostly near-shored AliExpress + 7-Eleven at this point. That's got its uses--it's awfully convenient!--but it leaves them open to niched-down competitors that I would love to give my money. AWS, on the other ha

If true, that's technically fascinating and clever. It's also the CEO of the company taking time from the shareholders to hunt down and hurt someone. Don't work for people like this.

That's....okay? Most home prices are up well over 20% over the last couple years, so no real net loss for anyone that bought before the pandemic. Most likely, the folks that bought at the peak will feel squeezed for a bit, and might be

It was a good idea two weeks ago as risk mitigation. Now the bad thing risk mitigation was meant to mitigate is happening. It's also a good idea not to build a house on a floodplain, or in an area with high risk of fire. People tend to

Good point. Could the PPP concept just be applied to your profits rather than your revenues, with a floor under which you just don't sell? Or, in the interest of equity at the cost of a little more complexity, deliberately round up pri
