See that's what people just don't get, pyramids are very understandable structures.

It is worth noting, for those outside of the UK that David Davis has an absolutely brilliant track record of saying absolutely asinine nonsense. There's just no substance to what he says. No, I'm not talking about this video (alth

The protestors aren't suppressing Chappelle's ability to perform comedy or to speak, they're objecting to Netflix chosing to distribute the comedy through its private, subscription only network. If you subscribe to the idea t

They clearly don't think they have a god given right, they have leverage.In the same way Chappelle uses his celebrity to spread hatred, they're using their leverage to disassociate with him. I actually do understand what censorshi

They aren't protesting that Chappelle is performing comedy, they're protesting that their company is financing it and advertising it. That's a massive difference.

Is it really censorship to ask one of the most valuable companies in the world not to give enormous sums of money to one of the richest comedians in the world specifically for content that is transphobic? Are you worried Dave Chappelle is g

I actually think this is a problem hackers have in general. It's the Zuckerberg problem. You build something cool, you want to talk about all the tricks you did to scale to N billion users and all anyone can talk about is that genocide

That's why I was saying it only works for high trust environments, and it's not just about you. Is your manager confident their manager and HR department really back them? Do other people in your team see you take more and trust t

Well sure, you can do that, but that isn't going to change their impression of you when they're doing your annual review. And it won't be "You took too much holiday", it'll be "I don't think you'

I think if employers were serious about giving you as much holiday as you need it'd be better to just say "You've got X days of holiday, anything above this must be approved by your manager, but should be fine". That way

I think a big problem with this is that you need to be on the same page as your boss. You might think 4 weeks is fine, they might think 2. But since some CXO announced unlimited PTO they're not going to tell you that they think you&#x2

I'm not sure we should be taking the whistle-blower's policy recommendations too literally, since her recommendations about what to do are going to directly influence whether people think she's a credible witness. It's m

I'm pretty skeptical that Intel would ever have put a fab in the UK. It would make far far more sense to either locate it in Ireland where they already have a fab and therefore the expertise, to put in somewhere like Germany where key

Even for global export, the UK doesn't have the trade deals necessary to export globally.

I think you're dead wrong on this. Mark Zuckerburg is actually in an almost unique position that he has full control of facebook, so he can do literally anything he wants. He doesn't have to prioritize profit or shareholder value,

I think that essentially, because of the supreme court's interpretation of money as speech, it would be very difficult to pass a law to get money out of politics without the SCOTUS overturning it. So at that point you need a constituti

I think Amazon is actually a different story to a certain extent. Sure, you can delete your account, but at the end of the day you've transacted with them and they can keep a record of who they've transacted with, right? Personall

Some of those features seem wild to me, aren't ldiv,exp,log2, isless and fastmath stuff basically just "map to what Intel have given us"? I'm amazed how low level these functions are.

I'm unconvinced by this article in general. First, I don't really beleive you can become more curious or more smart so the choice between the two is rather academic. What you can do is mimic smart people and mimic curious people

This has always been the case. Economists are great at explaining the economy in retrospect - oh if demand rises we'll see extra supply. Oh except the suppliers can predict peak demand and won't expand to meet unsustainable demand

Oh do I have a scam for you! So, no, obviously you can't divide an NFT, but what you can do is create a new fungible token (or smart contract not sure about the exact details) that represents partial ownership of the NFT. So you can is

Yeah and notably the Rivians were far better than the electric bikes.

Other people have answered this, but I think they've missed something. I'm not a manager because I'm a great engineer. I'm a good manager because I'm a decent engineer who has the skills necessary to be a good manag

A good manager manages up and manages down. What you're describing is someone who manages down but not up.

Yeah this is what struck me, the fact that the 1:1s were so out of sync with the standups. Realistically this manager is probably making the same mistake most managers initially make, which is failing to manage up, and failing to take a rol

Well let's put it this way - in natural language, we say stuff and implicitly assume we've done our best to express intent, but it may not be perfect (hence lawyers). In smart contracts you express your intent into a contract and
