> 80% of employees could be more productive remote, 18% could have serious issues with productivity My experience has been almost the inverse of this. I wouldn't quite say 80% of people are less productive at home but I'd think

Wow you're entirely correct, I just checked again 3 days later and there's now magically 3 in stock again :) Thanks for the tip!

This looks much more like what I'm looking for alright! Doing some background research it looks like they had some issues with their chipset supplier and had to downgrade the chip a little, but performance benchmarks put it ~around the

Being built right into the phone is a huge advantage! Even if you manage to get a perfect bluetooth connection (which, on Android, is a much bigger ask than many realize), and ignore the fact that you now have another separate device to c

I still consider my old Nokia E70[0] my favorite phone of all time, so I am definitely in the target demographic for this, as I'm 100% sold on the usefulness of a physical keyboard on a phone... However the CPU just doesn't match

You see this very frequently in DIY how-to videos. There's usually about ~30-60 seconds of very helpful instructional content, buried somewhere towards the end of an 11 minute video of rambling and common knowledge. I suspect largely

This is wild to me, as my rule of thumb is the exact opposite! I assume anybody whose profile picture isn't themselves is either a bot, a troll, or a throwaway account they use for comments they know will be controversial. It's th

I see the "GitHub Pages" suggested a lot whenever this question comes up, but it's worth noting that it's against their ToS[0] to use it for commercial purposes: "GitHub Pages is not intended for or allowed to be us

There's a difference between editorializing a headline vs having an article titled "X is the best", where the content is literally "Well X obviously isn't the best, that would be ridiculous. Also we have no idea wha

Some anecdata as a hey.com user myself: It feels like they've optimized a lot for initial load of the main homepage (The "Imbox"). Obviously this is super important for an e-mail app... but once you start trying to load anyth

Having multiple offers on the table certainly helps - but I feel a lot of people know what they're looking for in terms of comp range when they're going into the interview process. Recruiters will usually ask you up-front what you

You have to take it on a case by case basis. I think the important thing is to have a candid conversation between the candidate and the employer. "I have a final round interview in two days with another company that ends a 3 week inter

Internet companies outside of the ad space also track you because they can use it to analyze and increase sales, much like grocery stores. They use it to inform product decisions by answering questions such as: Which features are our users

Sounds like this watch is absolutely not for you then, and that's totally fine! For me, in 2021, a watch needs to display more than just date/time to earn a place on my wrist. I'm also ok spending another $50 every 3-6 years

Very excited for something like this! I can think of a few fun projects to try that would be useful to me nearly everyday but are too trivial or niche for an Apple or a Samsung to ever spend time actually building. Some ideas off of the top

I love that this is going to get more people into the FPV hobby but it feels a little prohibitively expensive. The drone itself (without goggles/controller) looks like it'll be available as a standalone purchase for ~$740 at some

One of the biggest problems I have with these touchscreens is that, as they're generally included to reduce unit cost for the car manufacturer, they also usually have woefully underpowered hardware backing them. When I glance at my dis

K8s absolutely has a steep learning curve, but it feels like we always focus on the most complex setups and use cases so that we can admire the shiniest new features. If you're going from "our app is running directly in tomcat in

This is such a great point and so frequently skimmed over in k8s discussions. We as tech folks tend to focus on the front page blog posts about 1000s of nodes and all of the orchestration that goes into complicated top 1% high-traffic/

It is you who is making my point for me. I agree that the 1M would be better spent on any of those things, rather than rotting away in a refuse site somewhere in MA. My argument was never that BTC is a good investment or even that it's

If you don't want to be any richer, then why do returns, dividends, yields or earnings growth matter? It's great that you're successful enough that throwing away over a million dollars worth of BTC isn't a big deal for y

As somebody who will occasionally have a spurt of 2 weeks hard work on a side project in the evenings, before putting it back down for 3 months, I think branches and tests are well worth it. As the saying goes, there's nothing worse th

Firefox is fine and quick as long as you don't need to use any heavy Google apps. Some people might even consider this a plus. For me, between work and personal use I'm effectively married to Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Docs, a

This would likely be in violation of several wiretapping laws though (Also, Clubhouse's own ToS).

Once clubhouse loses its exclusivity and becomes generally available, where will they be at? It's essentially just a discord clone with better marketing and hype. Or, in its most common format of 1-3 people talking and 1000s listening,
