14 days of paid sick leave and up to three months of paid family and medical leave Those seem like pretty specific limits. What other limits do you feel are missing from the bill?

The goal of mass testing would be better served if the controversial issues were separated from the immediate one. Dealing with only the surface level issues and ignoring everything else seems like a great way to pretend like you are acco

My non-expert opinion is that the size of most game installs is tied directly to the amount of voiced dialog in the game, and in a similar context, how many languages that voiced dialog has been translated and included in the install.

Google is filled with so many garbage results. In this case I would just replace 'Google' with 'the internet'. Switching search providers isn't going to make a marked difference the vast majority of the time, as a

So, you can't trust the government to oversee the tech companies. You can't trust companies to protect privacy. You can't trust voters/users to make good decisions on voting for the government or choosing the "right

The search results I'm seeing for that don't seem relevant to the discussion. Did you actually have any evidence to the "This is an extremely common pattern with union practices in the US." or were you just taking a shot

Unions, in my experience, exist to help keep mediocre, unmotivated employees employed. What's wrong with "mediocre" employees staying employed?

It brings up the question — as a developer, how can you best set boundaries on your customers so that you can have some degree of control over the toxicity of the culture that you're exposed to when interacting with them? Personally,

I dock my laptop because I want a large screen (17" is tiny from a desktop perspective), a secondary screen, and a decent keyboard to type on. These foldable devices don't solve any of these problems.

The problem generally comes down to the fact that no Republican is for improving tax filing. So all it takes is for a handful of Democrats to be lobbied to oppose it and even a Democratic majority can't push changes through.

Is there ever a situation where its preferable to have shitty jobs (shitty meaning no healthcare and no minimum wage protections in this example) regardless of the number?

I don't think you even need everyone to be remote. I've noticed that its enough to just have two separate offices with teams that have a mix of employees between those two offices. Once you have that, adding people that are fully

1. The average US employer is entitled and arrogant. The "everything is belong to me" attitude is rampant. 2. The idea that "There is no shortage if you pay enough" is BS is just whining because employers just really wan

But the annual gifts do more than ensure that participants are financially secure; they give people skin in the game. Participants spend prudently because they know that any unspent HSA balances are theirs to keep. The result? Massively lo

Sacrificing your health and your life for your employer is idiocy. Hardly anyone is sacrificing their health and lives for an employer. They are doing it for the money and hopefully insurance.

It is definitely possible to get a tech job at a large company where work-life balance is taken seriously. It's possible, but as a more "average" level developer, it's pretty difficult to actually get hired at one of t

Yet I still get the occasional user who will flag their purchase receipt as spam when all they really mean to do is delete it. They don't get the difference and don't realize that it matters which button they click. I have a rel

It says users can review footage before sharing, so I could see situations where users reviewed footage and had no problem sharing the result. Doesn't seem like a big deal as long as its voluntary.

The problem to me isn't when someone says "we want cheap work and we understand it will not be particularly high-quality," but when they say "we want top-quality work but we're not willing to pay for it." And
