I'm a serious but hobbyist player with ~15k hands last month. The thinking like a poker player is mostly about being upfront about your risk tolerances and then having a culture supporting people who make the best risk adjusted decisio

My quick google says it's 2.5% of carbon emissions (for both passengers and cargo). If we add a carbon tax, do you consider the prime benefit to be the reduction in demand (if it means 20% less air travel, that's .5% total global

Depending on the worker, this is def true for the guys on the rigs. They make a ton, but have to live in what's basically a barracks in some emptiness in Dakotas/Canada/etc. I obviously think the solution is to pay more, but

This makes a lot of assumptions about interest rates, but it holds up. Buy a house (with mortgage) for 4%. Inflation is 5% a year. Invest the money in real assets (literally anything diversified). Your mortgage price goes down in future dol

Aren't stable coins pegged to USD subject to the same inflationary concerns as USD and counterparty risk? You're getting a few extra % return, but aren't the risk adjusted returns the same? I honestly have the same questions

Totally uninformed here: Have we proved the Hawking radiation is without information (or enough of it), or is it just 'encrypted' at a level we can't distinguish from noise?

Andy is a fairly new and derogatory/tongue in cheek term (from twitch, long story) that basically means people that get attention from jumping on someone else's creative bandwagon. Basically someone else does the creation, and you

So "little-to-nothing" is an understatement and even a fairly small percentage reduction means a lot when it applies to hundreds of millions of people. The "decrease of transmission" is really only talking about "If

Gaming on Linux has long been difficult. Not going to get a lot of support from gamers there. The "I want to play games on my linux box" crowd is a lot bigger than the "I want to use linux on my gaming box" crowd.

I'm never going to say exercise is a bad thing, but a set of curls doesn't honestly burn that many calories. Running a mile is ~100 Calories, so moving a 20 pound weight up and down a few times is not a magic bullet.

I think everyone is talking past each other here. From the article: > As the athletes’ ran more and more over weeks or months, their metabolic engines cut back elsewhere to make room for the extra exercise costs You clearly burn extra ca

Can you elaborate on why the internal pressure is an issue? Is the resisting force something like trying to flex a balloon animal x 1000?

It's not really. I've seen multiple admin assistants go to something in the HR Associate level. Once you're at the HR associate level, you have the whole HR/Talent org career ladder available to you. It's not always

Alternately, there are a lot of things we can improve, and doing something small that's easily accomplished gets something done now, increases visibility, and add momentum to do bigger things. I know some states are banning (or limitin

I've worked in a place where test suites started in postman because of the lack of skill in QA. For us, the fact that you end up writing "code" in postman meant it had a learning curve anyway, so it was a really short sighted

You have some valid critiques about the post, but the big point that you didn't answer in this is the idea that tether is more or less "unbacked" and with significantly less regulation that doesn't have even the (often c

I mean, would you say the "we've lost the drug war" falls into that rhetorical technique? Is that just saying "everyone has to adapt so the pot industry can make money?" Or "pandemics are inevitable, we can&#x2

I honestly agree with you, but am worried about the precedent it would set. If you start banning stuff because of addiction, does it apply to things like soda or fast food? Would it apply to things like baseball cards or other collectables?

You'd have to make the points awarded differ with white vs black. World champs wouldn't have been a lot different other than it would end earlier. If you lose a game, you need to win a game to be even. That doesn't change eve

The more payments there are, the more reducing fraud is worth it. 1% savings on 20B is worth 10x the effort than 1% savings on 2B.

There are two questions at the core of this: "What made you look" and "What made you leave". They can have the same answers but this isn't a great poll IMO.

This isn't correct. Deep mines are notoriously hot, because you're digging towards magma. Google says temps increase by 3° C for every 100m.

I think you're right, I mistook OPs comment about the video, not the sound. Does seem weird they wouldn't have minimum sound quality, but it is a tricky thing moving 5.1 to stereo, so that's more about the mixing.

I mean, this isn't for movies that are bought by Netflix from an existing rights holder, it's movies and series that are commissioned by Netflix. It seems reasonable that they'd want to capture as high quality as possible for

Yep, that's exactly how it goes. Repo contains contracts. Tests pull the latest version from that repo, though you're able to locally override that version to pull in a "unofficial" version. Spec is created before any de

I've found a good way to enforce schemas is do all testing against a Prism proxy. The proxy takes the OpenApi spec and basically maps the request going in/out into the model defined by the OpenApi spec. This means that if your req

I have a bunch of devs on my team who want an M1 because of the ~6 minute build time savings, but we can barely supply them for new hires and replacements.
