I completely agree. I've worked in tech as a coder for 27 years and I find all the features of the iPhone annoying and inhibitive. When the settings app has 8 pages of scroll, something's gone sideways. I'm running an XS Max

Walking for 30 minutes 3 times a day helps me a lot. I need to start doing it again. It's so easy to ass out on the couch after a grueling day, and when you're burned out, every day is a grueling day.

Do you think these politicians and administrators knew they were lying when they said that?

How many state side engineers are the 45 Polish engineers replacing? Also, are they willing to put up with game studio industry bs?

The NYT stole his playbook of constant fear mongering and division. I'm not sure they have the standing to criticize it without looking hypocritical. Ads don't click themselves I suppose.

I disagree with POTUS term limits. If the citizenry want someone to stay in office, like we did for FDR, we shouldn't be forced to pick someone else. Furthermore, having term limits on just one branch of government decreases the power

I feel like a lot of this could be solved with a month long holiday like they do in Europe. US workers are lucky to get a few days off in a row without interruption. Open office is also just horrendous.

>a long take-home problem filters for that. I disagree. Maybe and only if it's paid and paid well. Maybe $150 an hour. Not many who are good will put up with that; because they don't have to.

Too bad there isn't a test for "fucks given." That would weed out about 80% of applicants. I can work with just about anyone who passes that test.

>Seems strange that the person who headed up benefits would get this one wrong. Musk ... has denied wrongdoing, saying he fired the executives for cause. I think the plaintiff just showed cause with that one.

When I was a youngster, you could call a company and a person would answer. They'd ask what you wanted and route you to the appropriate person. It was nice.

How much of the 60% difference do you think that accounts for?

Per capita, Germany has about 60% (31.4/10K vs 19.5/10K) higher homeless rate. I was surprised myself. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sovereign_states_by_ho...

I suspect a lot of that depreciation has to do with the battery life and replacement cost. For the current used market it's pretty drastic. I'm not sure if it's just a flooded market, a fad ending, people just don't like

A colleague of mine bought a Tesla. He was looking to trade it up for a newer model after a couple of years and it depreciated probably $30K (nearly half) if I recall correctly. He absolutely loves the car, but nobody wants to take on that

I did the math on the Toyota and based on how many miles I drive in a year (I work at home) and the expected life of the vehicle, it'll run reliably until I'm 169 years old. :)

The battery is the achilles' heel of EV's. An ICE engine can last 20+ years if you take care of it. An EV needs a battery replacement at the tune of $10K+ after 10 years at best. I think once they make longer lasting and/or c

It's amazing how blind some people are to reprisal. If you punch someone in the face, you're going to get something back. It might not be immediately, but it's coming, rest assured. Every action has an equal or opposite react

Governments taxing food usually isn't a good idea. They should attack the problem in a way that doesn't make it so food is more expensive for people.
