Nah, there’s definitely racism from asian hiring managers. It’s not totally unexpected, though. Unlike us white males, most of them haven’t been trained from birth to not prefer candidates that look like them. If you disagree though, I chal

Those are the three examples everyone uses, but I thought those were pretty weak so I didn't include them. In fact, I was curious enough that I looked up comparable homes to mine in both Austin and Minneapolis, and the house prices wer

I think the point is that secularism doesn't give you 'instant friends' like religion does. Secularism doesn't have shared culture or common experience to bind people. For example, there's a 0.5 mile street in the t

Well, that's a very self-defeatist attitude. I can see how it can make someone sad.

Yeah, but you can 100% remove Christian theology and still have a fun time.

In the US, people have been complaining about this for 100 years. I haven't found any successes yet. I suspect it's because it's a demand problem, not a supply one. Make high-demand areas less attractive and low-demand areas

It seems like you're saying we should only read peer-reviewed journals. Could you recommend your favorites?

I’m almost done with Book 1, and so far at least 85% applies to anyone: don't be idle, don't lie, don't make hasty decisions, build up your willpower, be courageous, be present, do what you say you will do, challenge

Can the postal service actually function as efficiently as commercial companies? There are laws and regulations that set how it must work: * Title 39, U.S. Code, Section 101, 3622, 3401 * Title 18, U.S. Code, Sections 1701–1737 Interesting,

Why would you think drug abuse and mental illness cause people to become unsheltered rather than the other way around? I feel like a lot of commenters here have never experienced poverty and chronic stress.

Eventually media companies will force us all to wear smart glasses so they will know who to sue for royalties when we come up with anything new.

How many of these farmers are hobbyists, though? Or, use the farm land to offset their taxes (like they do a lot where I live)? Maybe farming is their second job, rather than the other way around? If you go to the actual report, you'll

Is this regulated by the state? In VA, I often see farmers market vendors selling produce that they purchased from the distributors or wholesalers.

I couldn't find the 20% in your reference, but is it talking specifically about hospitals? I can believe that only 20% of hospitals are for-profit. But, if I do a maps search for all 'healthcare organizations' within 10 miles

Wow. I didn’t expect so much response. A little late now, but I wanted to clarify my thoughts. Being “Gifted” is far from enough. My three siblings were also considered gifted, but they didn’t do as well. My two sisters were impregnated in

I worked professionally from the late 90s. We used Gantt, but it was always for spiral or unified process. We were always told to avoid waterfall (as there’s a natural tendency to go that way) and always include feedback loops.

Yeah, I'll definitely figure it out. I'm actually a fairly positive person. It's just that the brain chemicals distort my thinking, unfortunately. I'm working on a few things, and going through exercises to retrain my br

I really worry about them. We had the opportunity to build an entire industry and get in early. There were few of us (because only us 'nerds' were into computers in the 90s). And, demand increased exponentially. But, the industry

Thank you for your kind and empathetic words. I’ll probably be ok. I’m medicated and my therapist and psychiatrist are aware of my ideation. I have a very supportive spouse. I live an upper middle class life. When my ideation moves into act

This is cathartic. Thanks. ACE 8. I was often hungry and cold. and sometimes homeless. I was poor in an area stricken with poverty (appalachia). I lived in a home that didn’t have half of an exterior wall, and we only had a kerosene heater.

I wonder how increased wages will change the way people work. Pretty much every household on my street is pulling in close to $500k / year. They’re all in their 40s and 50s. They seem to be putting excess wages into SPY. A handful of t

Are there ordinances that prevent row homes from being converted into dense residential? Maybe the easy thing is to get rid of those ordinances first.

Maybe Americans are just being rational? There are a ton of people out there willing to do math for a relatively low amount. Heck, my last two CTOs didn't even understand linear algebra or statistics, and they seemed to do well for the
