I think "water cooler" talk is over stated because many companies will have different channels to discuss these kinds of things. You no doubt loose the face to face human interaction, but there are other ways to account for this.

Not OC, but for me it's just a real wonder why it's not better embraced at this stage of the game. We have all the tools to accommodate collaboration within remote teams and in (most) places the broadband to handle it. Add to this

While instant coffee has a negative stigma I'm happy to see the speciality community stepping into this space as a way to possibly move people away from these machines. While the cost value is still not great (~$4 a cup) it's far

Leave them out and as they begin to get soft & ripe place them in the fridge. It'll slow it down, like bananas, and keep them ripe a little longer. When i was using avocados as snacks this was the only way I could keep them for mul

This kind of falls into the same problem as wikis though. It requires people to A. remember it's there and B. be actively monitoring it for questions. We have one at my location and I constantly forget it's a thing. With something

I love that Bandcamp integrates lyrics into their player. It helps to re-create that intimate experience of listening to an album for the first time with your liner notes open.

DO you have a source on it actually being this? As far as I can tell it just happened to coencide with the relase of Schumers stand up special. Not sure where this spin of it being a gender issue is coming from other than to stir up unneede

Where you will notice it most is in hard cornering and sprinting hard. You'll get more flame flex and feel then with regular riding. Carbon is also wholly dependent on how they shape and layer it for the ride, plus how thick is the alu

The reason you can't find them is many places just don't make them at scale and you're really left to ordering from small builders. There's some really great, top notch steel frame builders in the US right now so if you&

I absolutely loathe yelp reviews. Far too many people trying to act like professional reviewers spending 500 words on setting the scene of the restaurant only to end up on 2/5 stars because of something ridiculous like bad lighting. Th

I've used the ferry a handful of times to take my bike in, but it definitely caters to a very specific clientele. It's simply not worth it unless you live right there or work right where it lets off.

There's a lot of hyperbole in here, especially about parks and gyms. There's plenty of parks all over NJ that offer different options from hiking, biking, to kayaking. Gyms are a plenty and it's weird to even say you'd p

There's other ways into NYC from NJ that aren't the train. There are many ferry options along the hudson, and nothern shore area has a commuter ferry that is 40 minutes to Wall St.

Reasonably priced homes within 45 minutes of NYC, via train, are definitely not a thing. You're also not even counting our absurd taxes in places like Morristown, Montlcair, Fair Lawn, etc.

TBH I feel like integration and UI tests can be combined at this point. Writing a bunch of tests to only check UI elements feels like a waste to me. I don't mean to go full on BDD where every step is spec'd out, but I've done

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but Reveal is an independent nonprofit organization. The idea that you would prescribe to "clicks" as a justification for not trusting their reporting is a very damning thing to me. For a site

It's still far more generous that what Vimeo is offering: 5GB total storage & 500MB uploads a _week_. 1000 photos can go a long way if used in the way Flickr was originally intended, which as you noted was a portfolio of sorts.

Huh? She's trying to highlight the hypocrisy in people who want border walls but then demand those services at cheap rates. This is nothing specific to her own thinking and want of cheap labor. It's purely calling out the conflict

Her comment was being targeted at the upper class who are the loudest ones yelling for this. There's also a fair amount of 'working class' industries who rely on migrant workers to keep labor down, such as landscaping and hou
