Sidetopic, but I am rather disappointed that Venmo has been pressuring me via email to embrace crypto and imagine behind the scenes they own however much, trades only get executed internally, and they do their best to extract transaction fe

I see this pretty frequently in manufacturing. Oftentimes, larger products will have curves, design changes, layering complexities, and judgment calls that simply can’t be performed via machine, further, the parts will come in at different

Would you mind describing the parts that became automated? I can think of a number of appliances that could potentially be api-driven but haven’t researched them yet....

The article mentioned how difficult it is for minimum wage workers to find rentals. I wish it had also included the percentages of workers making minimum wage or less over the last 10 years. A common counter argument is that people should

Given when they started, I imagine they’ve bid on a fairly high percentage of the sales in the last 5 years and had an impact on the prices and perceived value of the housing market.

Can you elaborate on “innovated on a scale existing space companies haven’t in decades...”? I’m not aware of anything they did that couldn’t have been done elsewhere provided the resources were dedicated and am curious of the significance.

My interpreting of the use of the word “toxic” is that there is an unbridgeable communication and understanding gap between generations when it comes to professional opportunities. In 2009, I had someone in the older generation tell me tha

Is it not possible to only have the hashes or does it have to get persisted somewhere in the process?

I googled daily transactions and it was in the 200ks whereas before it was in the 300ks. Meanwhile, there are 109 million credit card transactions a day in the US alone and who even knows how many wires or cash payments (or what happens whe

I think a common approach is “I know this job is garbage but if I can last 18 months, my resume will look much better”.....or.....”maybe my manager will be alright and the bad stories will be less relevant”

Perhaps this is what Bezos meant when he said that rather than talking about work-life balance, he’d rather think of things as a circle.

Seems like they are both getting legal attention, just separately. I wonder if the magnitude of these cases is better handled by 2 teams at once to speed them up?

Pretty soon Microsoft will introduce us to the P# language and have intro courses for those that don't want to deal with all that math stuff, with free credits for Azure.

Reminds me of how a few places I’ve worked momentarily embraced Tableu with open arms after seeing a US revenue heat map built by dragging and dropping (carefully groomed data).

My approach was to allocate 2 weeks for even the most basic things because unknowns always creep in and a tighter schedule tends to make those things creep in even more. Also, many of the requests had no particular urgency to begin with.

I think it’s possible to find high level athletes that take a variety of approaches towards nutrition. I’ve always found Michael Phelps approach interesting although I wouldn’t recommend it (or a scaled down version of it) https:/&#x2

I miss my bulky motorola cell phone that weighed less and had decent plastic because weight and glass became luxurious.

I could imagine a scenario where the target server has more capacity and thereby a better place to do the transforming steps.

It is my understanding that in aerospace much of the software is outsourced and is then QAed by internal contractors.

It makes me wonder the extent to which it’s diabolical, as though someone can get a PhD in manipulative statical disinformation. Surely there are layers of approval for this.

I think I saw some stats showing that beyond the top 1 percent of websites, the usage goes way way down meaning they wouldn’t cost much to maintain. As for the 1 percent, there would probably be various solutions depending on the situation

At one point I heard this message from HR although I only wanted remote access in order to get additional stuff done on Saturdays. It was ironic because within the teams of 4, projects were never shared and they forced managers to rank the

To me it seems like an unfortunate but common tactic in marketing-land to seek out any sort of affiliation with a well known brand and to publish it as much as possible.

I can’t recall the last time (prior to rules enforcement) I’ve seen a pitcher not grab their hat, glove, or belt before each pitch helped by spin in order to use some form of adhesive. Actual data would be helpful but the impression I get

It makes everything disposable. I’ve seen a few 200 dollar health devices that fail quickly because they use cheap cr 2032 batteries that can’t be accessed. I miss the days of clip in batteries. I still have a 2013 laptop like that.

I think also that high lumber prices combined with tariffs contribute quite a bit.

Does fixing constitute bringing back everything to the state things were at when the global lock was taken or does it also need to handle requests that occurred after? (I’m more of a db person with a small understanding of web apps)
