I'm a similar age and also a heavy drinker (15-25 drinks per week) but also run 40-50 miles per week + 5000-7000 feet of vert per week. My friends/family are astonished that I can crush 10 beers in an evening and run 15 miles the

Yes, CEOs are overpaid, but there is only one per company. There are 100s of useless overpaid directors, VPs, senior managers per F500. Essentially yes men whose job is to brew koolaid all day. They aren't talked about as much.

Oh I misunderstood. The government is redirecting requests to local servers, not local user machines.

I have no problem with this. They are a sovereign country. Third party DNS, like Google, the aggregation of DNS query data could be used for nefarious or for-profit purposes. I encourage everyone to setup unbound.

Yawn. This is poor hiring practice - having been involved in the interview process and "caught" fake candidates, its fairly obvious. They have zero personality, can barely speak English, don't react to small-talk, their resum

I was drunk the other night asking genAI to make me an overengineered encrypted messaging system using extensive steganography involving WoW. Got me deep into WoW add-on development.

They can be right on things, wrong on others. Its a big organization. This type of research will be cited in the future, which could negate interest/developments regarding tumors related to mobile phones. Why give a researcher $50k for

Because we live in an era of specialization. Look at a companies job page - even startups have silos. I don't think this is strange or unusual. Its hard to be good at everything. If I'm spending 8+ hours per day doing sales, where

Didn't Steve Ballmer start off at MSFT essentially in a biz ops role, supporting execs when the company was super small? Interesting how he became technical as the company grew. Pretty rare.

You must drive a smaller car so others around you are safer. Just like how you have to vaccinated to protect others. Its part of the social contract that you signed, duh.

HBR is certainly conventional, but the content is pretty much indistinguishable from what a LLM would tell you. There's a reason its popular among HR careerists, the PMC, and MBAs. All the content just reads like generic self help lite

When was the last time the "conservative" wing of US politics truly cared about "small government"? It's a stupid platitude at this point, so repeating it should be met with scorn, because its like calling some neol
