Frustrating to see the incredibly common conflation of equity and salary. Even though it’s always correctly suffixed with “compensation”, people assume that means “a bank account with 8 zeros”.

IIRC, they were able to fully rewrite it in Python in a weekend. I guess that shows the (small) scale of what it was at that point.

They quite literally do, but that’s the point (though I’m using that liberally; I’m not intending to argue the semantics of “life”). Preventing children from being born with an awful quality of life is just as/more beneficial than prev

I can’t help but draw a parallel to contraceptives/emergency contraceptive. Restricting access will reduce the potential benefit more than it will curtail new users (ie smoking rates will go up, with more cigarette use).

The “abstinence only” approach is proven to wholly ineffective. By all means, you shouldn’t encourage non-smokers to take up vaping, but encouraging smokers to switch to vaping is undoubtedly beneficial to their health. You can replace va

There are many causes of death, and globally the distribution of cause of death is quite wide. But software developers are generally removed from a large portion on it. They’re not working with hazardous things, typically can avoid low-inco

I’ve always wanted a curated list of textbooks from people who actually read them in depth. I’ve read through a couple textbooks front-to-back on topics that are completely unrelated to my field[0]. A good textbook should be able to expla

I've always wondered about this. Compilers do a LOT of irreversible stuff. For example, symbol names usually aren't needed (unless you have a reflective language). Where AI would really shine is reversing the (only seemingly rever

The actual dispatch appears to be fine. It’s just the network isn’t allowing mobile connections. Everyone has “No Service”.

Remember when we all banded together to prevent Verizon from introducing competition into our market because it would “take Canadian jobs” and “give our hard earned dollars to the states”? That happened because of a hostile attack ad campai

I don’t understand why returns are so permissive, especially in industries that can’t/won’t resell returned products (eg fashion). In my opinion, the onus is on you to do your due diligence when it comes to researching the correct prod

Storage in the cars? No. But the infrastructure is lacking. Many people who own a Toyota Mirai (hydrogen) refill it at their Toyota dealership (far less convenient than the electrical grid) and are limited to around 80% fuel capacity (since

Related, SVGO (or my preferred in-browser frontend, SVGOMG[0]) does a wonderful job of cleaning up SVGs and removing unnecessary metadata/comments. I throw every SVG into it before it enters my codebase. [0]: https://jakearc

If we’re going way overboard, then I think a more effective solution is to just force all manufacturers to limit cars to a max speed of 25 mph. More effective and equally unlikely to happen.

By the do you mean you’re paying the “interest” cost of the loan as part of the sticker price? If so, that’s not always the case. I used to offer 0% and absorb the cost of the financing (which cost me approx 2% of the profit) because it mea

My last month’s GSuite invoice was $17.63 (CAD). It has definitely increased in price, but it’s still the cheapest unlimited cloud drive. I think the cheaper plan only includes 30GB storage.

Eh, it happens. I pay over $200/year for my domain + GSuite. It’s a luxury I enjoy, but a luxury nonetheless. If I couldn’t afford that anymore, I’d probably go back to Gmail. I’d probably think to switch over many of my email addresse

Ah, I’m glad I’m not the only one who did this. It also means that you can fix things when they break halfway. Say you get an error when the script is processing entry 101 (perhaps it’s running files through ffmpeg). Just fix the error and

So a bit under $2.50/meal. That’s very comparable to lower/lower-middle in the USA.

Don't worry, I don't live in the USA. Thanks for your concern though.
