You're right. Developing nations need a different mindset than developed nations and have every right for it to be so.

if we so care about having larger GDP numbers (as we do), we should simply try growing those parts of GDP that do not necessitate devastating CO2 (equivalent). Simple as that. (however, me personally, I don't think growth is really nec

I'm all for more human-friendly ideas but why do we have to go so far with our next step as a general 4-day workweek or basic universal income. Instead, guarantee that every worker has the OPTION to work part-time and also that overtim

I think it has to do with the fact that people realize that these days basically vaccinated people stand in direct conflict to the the anti-vaxxers. So, earlier it appeared as if people could just do whatever they pleased (get a vaccination

People who preordered when preorders went live are still on the list for December 2021 or Q1 2022 (mine is for Q1 but I was an hour late with my preorder and in Europe), so it's simply that those who came late will get it later.

on a tangent: the effect described there that a helmet hinders taking up biking certainly applies to me. A friend gifted me a bike helmet (i always cycle 20km to him) and when I tried it out, it sucked all my joy out of biking and I thought

He was better prepared for Facebook and Google because he explicitly did the LeetCode algo puzzles that are for their companies. Also, he interviewed these companies last because he used the other interviews as "training" steps. A

there are too many popups, especially now with how many cookie pop-ups work. So the easiest way is try to ignore it if possible. Ok, yeah, the best way would be to block it completely but as this shows again: humans are lazy creatures. Ever

also why I don't like seeing pictures of people everywhere (e.g. Outlook, WebEx), especially myself. It's not really useful information and only distracting. At least give us an option if we want to see all this stuff (in Outlook

the speech is pretty good. Basically he advocates for thinking for yourself, compassion, less egoism. I find it very weird that they made a book out of it with 144 pages. How come 144 pages? Pretty easy, every page only has one line. But th

his storytelling reads very differently when you know that he killed himself 3 years after this talk and was depressed for the last 20 years of his life.

I really think DDG should at least search for results of "my" country by default. Otherwise it's just too annoying for the regular user. Aside from that, I like DDG more than Google.

yes! I use this addon for firefox all the time. Usually I click on my "Tranquility!" button the moment the cookie notification pops up, no cookies needed ;) (good for articles via HN, also possible to circumvent some paywalls)

i basically can't use my ipad mini from 2012 anymore because the apps in the app store usually need a newer OS version than possible. A laptop from 2012 with Windows (whatever version) wouldn't have these problems whatsoever. I kn

it's insane how fast one can destroy the data in an excel file simply by misunderstanding copy/paste or drag/drop functions, e.g. while you (probably, at least how my excel is configured) can filter your table and then drag t

I'm a little tired of the "slippery slope" argument (in general, and also in this instance). Because, yeah, the slope might be slippery but that doesn't mean we shouldn't go on the slope. It only means we must be (v

sometimes I wonder how much green/blue is/was lost in media due to greenscreen/bluescreen. Anyone has any idea about this?

yeah, you're probably right. It should get easier to find adequate stylings for people who stay longer with the service, as the database fills. And that's probably also the moment where less stylists are needed because your "

I'm still wondering how many "stylists" are good enough for the job. Or maybe I'm just too picky and thus find it hard to imagine that many stilists would be able to find what the other person would like without it being

as always the real elephant in the room is that inflation is not bad per se, except for those whose wages don't grow as much as the inflation. And wages for low earners will rise. Thus, we are not really talking about inflation but mor

OP's posting certainly reads as if he really [!] enjoys programming but doesn't enjoy interviewing or startups. So, if he hasn't left something out, he really should stay in this profession but try to find ways out of the int
