Correct me if I'm wrong on the timeline I think you are talking about, but Intel stock shed value like the rest of tech in 2021/22. IMO, your theory had a much smaller impact than you think in terms of the dump. They both droppe

I feel like you might be looking at this incorrectly. This is political of course given it's FL, but I'm attempting to look past that. The issue, which has been exhaustively studied by people like Jonathan Haidt and posted about

If gas was magically $16 a gallon tomorrow, it would amplify inflation. Markets and their workers would demand wage increases, which would of course trickle to everything else. And yes, imagine what this would look like at $20 a gallon :&#

I've noticed this too and this is why I leave at least 5 car lengths in front of me, sometimes even more. I can see around the vehicle in front of me no problem, and can absorb the energy for those rush hour random stops. It seems li

While the historical and societal critique of religion is a common topic, I believe there's more to be gained from a nuanced and respectful dialogue. People expressing disdain for religious beliefs are quite common, and often, this app

This web dev? If so, it must be some special stuff for it to still be in prod after all these years.

I don't speak for the parent, but what they said seems true - Henry Hazlitt covers this phenomenon pretty well if you are ever interested. Your two points I think are also true. It won't be nice to everyone... Such is life. Th

Same here - I feel as though it's turned me into a super programmer. One of my favorite uses is converting a C# model with a bunch of properties into a SQL table along with their corresponding stored procedures. I used to have boiler

Anecdotally I noticed the same back in 2016-ish, especially when driving on the freeways in the city. It's astonishing what people can turn into behind the wheel of a car or a keyboard.

I'm having a hard time figuring out why you are being downvoted so much when you are following the HN policy that has been around for a very long time now, providing sources, etc. As someone that works with data, I would absolutely lo

Yup, the trick with kids is simply staying up later. I usually do a couple 2 to 4am nights for freelance work, then do an early bed night, then repeat. Waking up at 7 to take the kids to school is a little rough, but a stop at the coffee

I'm guessing you must not be from the US, as MSNBC/Fox News both are on TV at all times in various public and private spaces. It depends on the content of course (political), but MSNBC is a left leaning version of Fox News - they

I think you are good - you just had to pass a HN interrogation first. It really delivered though. > I'm open for more questions I laughed much harder than I should of at this.

Anecdotally I have worked in government roles and have been rewarded extremely well for saving taxpayer money, to the point where I felt it was too much at times. It really all dials down on the common denominator, which is the boss or man

This is how I feel about the word "literally". I just assume at this point it's from an emotional person probably over indulging in politics.
