I can only speak for myself, but I don't even consume much caffeine anymore and still maintain 80+ hours. Between managing people, building products, meeting with clients, documentation, and more I always have something I can do that d

My parents were living this lifestyle. My dad routinely worked 100+ hour weeks, often sleeping on job sites and very often traveling for work. It kinda makes me chuckle a bit when I hear people say that 'nobody can do 80 hours!' w

Big witcher fan, just finished the show an hour ago. Gotta say, strongly disagree. This whole season was just a prologue leading into the 'real' story. Despite that, they managed to fit in great stories that fans of the games woul

I'm on call 24/7. It's fairly normal to wake up at 2 am because there's a pressing situation and a client is in need. That said, I actively chose this situation for myself and find it to be pretty rewarding. Of course, i

The issue with authority isn't that it is bad or evil in and of itself. The issue lies in the fact that the people who would seek to have authority are almost universally the worst candidates for such a position. This is a primary driv

I can think of several reasons. #1 for us, is that we're a marketing agency serving a lot of the gaming industry, so working with content creators or industry folk who sometimes default to discord is convenient. That said, Discord is a

The issue is documentation, and the legal risks it can carry. If you get ghosted and believe it's discrimination, that is a very different beast than if you can twist the words of the feedback you've received to imply it may have

All of my machines are the same. From the time I plug in the power cable and hit the go button I can expect to see my desktop in around 10 seconds. It's fast enough that when I'm in discord with coworkers and need to switch OS it

You are correct, however, you're referencing conflicts between nations with nation-level resources to bring to bear for said conflict. 9/11 was particularly devastating because it was executed by so few, with so little resources,

We never had an event of that level of devastation BEFORE 9/11 either. They used the tragedy to push a surveillance and war agenda. In the end, most of the people in the countries we bombed to hell and back as a result didn't even

In this case, this is aiding an enemy state to develop technology to launder money. This isn't the same as "you're not allowed to go to Africa and teach people how to build wells." Assisting an enemy state to financially

This the same line of reasoning I've used in the past. I just wish more people would get on board, to be honest. It's a painfully hard battle to get people to adopt the mentality of minimal exposure, and to see the real value in i

This right here is one of the reasons the self-hosting and open source world is growing so much as of late. You simply can't trust most large companies not to smash every egg you put into their basket.

The buying power of $1 USD has diminished massively over time and continues to do so. Every year the money in your wallet is worth at least 1.8% less. Over your lifetime that becomes a substantial loss in buying power.

I get targeted ads all the time from big consulting companies. It's not about SAP purchasing decisions, they want people to pursue SAP as a career option. In my case, their targeting is right on the money - I just have a better job at

In the minds of sane people, those quotes would be taken to mean that the weapon is suitable for home defense and gives you every possible advantage in the worst possible situation. The same advertising model is used for all defense firearm

I'm with you on this one. People saying "it's about the advertising" are being disingenuous, or they haven't read the statements made by the plaintiffs in relation to the case. The argument being made is that the we

Disagree, governments on average are terrible at financial management. The U.S. government has raided such coffers before.

Pension funds don't buy the most shorted equity on the market, typically. He's right that the people most affected were in effect gamblers. They gambled on the 5k number happening or not and got creamed in aftermath.

If there's a limited overall supply it follows that increased demand will move the price upwards. If supply can easily scale to meet demand, then scaling effects take over and prices can come down. The economics of the situation are la

Fortunately for him, he's an engineer with thumbs and a screen, not a lawyer. I don't think it's particularly likely that this goes nuclear on Musk or Tesla but it's definitely absurd, as you said.

This isn't actually that complex a problem. 51% don't get to make decisions, 66% do. The correct answer is almost always "no" so making it more difficult to get to a "yes" from the decision making body is (with

It caps at 6 gigs. The highest bill you can get is around 90 USD all in. Once it caps, it still works just fine. I'd know, I have Fi and have run over the cap many times during travel periods.

I am conflicted with this because I fall on both sides of this particular fence. On the one hand, I despise when platforms are over-run by people spouting ridiculous things and driving everything into heated discussions. On the other hand,

I try to be as generous as I can when I hear things like this but I'm inclined to agree with your sentiment here. Perhaps I've become cynical but it just doesn't sit right with me. I've been having the same feelings towa

Of course, not all of them are, but there are many who actively use Twitch to promote "premium" snapchats, or NSFW patreons. The streamers that engage in this are creating a really negative space for the female streamers who just
