Undoubtedly there are certain roles that require on-site physical presence. I doubt that's the case for most roles at Google. "Our offices are where you’ll be most connected to Google’s community." Why and how? So you move aw

It's in the article: "Why not just put down an underwater cable? That's a fine question. PowerX points out that Japan is surrounded by deep seas, and prone to earthquakes, and says in a press release that "the ship-based

I had a barely used first generation iPhone in my safe and went to get it the other day to show it to some friends just to discovered it had blown up. It didn't look charred as your modem but it definitely exploded. Next day I ordered

It could be 2 or 4 but they pick 3 because it will be faster and less upsetting for people to eventually return to office 5 days a week, which is the goal here. What makes it more ridiculous in this case is that "virtual human interact

Move on to backend development and see your craft run for over two decades if that's what you want. Once a backend system is working well no one wants to mess with it, and as the time goes by and the original developers retire, documen

Unrelated to the model itself but infrastructure, yesterday was unusable for me, getting random "too many requests sorry bout that" errors. I think 1/4 of the requests during a 3 hr period didn't make it through. Imposib

Wouldn't be the perception of things being easier/ performance improvement just another effect of having your brain soaked in chemicals? I have been in life and death situations, once dragged by strong currents deep into the sea w

"Anyone who has worked designing products knows that users don’t read anything—warnings, footnotes, any form of microcopy will be studiously ignored" Users don't usually read long legal statements such as terms of services. T

Legally is zero days in the US. I met people with 3-5 days per year. Most companies give you 10 days to start so that's considered standard. It took me 15 years to get to 20. There are some exceptions of course with a generous amount o

Let's ignore that almost 100% of the homeless population in America is addicted to drugs. Having experienced drug abuse myself I know for a fact affordable housing is not going to do anything for these folks. They need treatment, and t

This is the reason why front end developers command so much money. The amount of work required to keep a website without breaking every year or two is ridiculous. And every time you want to update a dependency that's at least a full da

Just accept that in many scenarios all you can hope for is to get close to a solution. Depending on the domain you work in, close may be perfectly ok. Then walk away knowing you did your best. This sounds easier than it actually is, particu

How about people with dangerous jobs? police officers, firefighters, miners and ironworkers, pilots, soldiers, drivers... Would that make having a desktop job morally wrong? I get Elon's point that manufacturing often requires some peo

Three welcome dialogs at once, enable notifications, cookies and bot wanting to chat plus the crappy low resolution logo were enough for me to not even start reading. Judging by the comments here I didn't miss anything important.
