I’m not sure it needs to even be as nefarious as that. If I’m in charge of deciding what technology to use for another, less controversial, arm of the government and I see that one of the companies I’m considering has decided to stop doing

One thing you could do if you’re really worried is toss the food in the oven for a little while (works best with Thai or Chinese food, think currys or rice/noodle dishes) and chuck all of the packaging Wash your hands before you touch

I don't think the assertion is that it's spreading through vents, just that spending time in a very air conditioned room mimics some of attributes of winter that make the spread of respiratory viruses more likely (dry air, dry nas

This is so sad, I really hope he pulls through. My office is a couple of blocks away from Moscone and I was pretty surprised by the fact that RSA didn't cancel. It seemed clear at the time that the spread wasn't going to be contai

I disagree. I signed up to check it out and they’ll consistently push notifications about upcoming earnings calls. They’re clearly trying to promote a very short horizon mindset

While I personally wouldn’t that doesn’t stop a bunch of people from kicking their feet up and texting as their Model S’s drive them down 280 every morning. They’re already agreeing to the trade off between convenience and liability. I thin

Higher intensity interval style exercises can get you there no matter your level of fitness. If you’ve never tried sprint intervals on an assault bike I’d recommend giving those a shot.

I think that the main reason that WeWork has been referred to in the same breath as other tech companies is because the offices they build out resemble the nice, cushy offices that tech companies are famous for (and that lots of their tenan

I think conventional wisdom is that you should pay your card off each month and never pay interest. That way you benefit from the cash back or other rewards program and have better protection against fraudulent transactions (it’s the issuin

Pedantic but it is using induction coils to generate and receive a magnetic field, not using actual magnets. Still, not producing anything I’d worry about at all

My understanding was that most of the tech opposition came from 'lower' margin businesses as it's a tax on gross receipts (revenue) vs profit so it disproportionally hurts high volume low margin businesses (like stripe, squar

Gas stations are obviously a great place for chargers because they're already properly distributed along well travelled routes. I think there's probably going to be a market for either an existing restaurant coffee chain with a lo

I think some of the concern stems from the fact that China will start to make up a material percentage of Google’s revenue and that gives China leverage over Google. So maybe it’s starts out being transparent and then two years from now Chi

You’re not wrong, but I know a lot of people who just don’t prioritize it in even though they could. Sure, people scraping by to make ends meet don’t have this luxury. But the people that go to happy hour all the time and then complain abou

Not sure how accurate it is but the fact that it's so reproducibly different does make me trust it a little bit. Also jives with how tired I am the days after I drink. The resting heart rate seems to be quite accurate, I've compar

That fear actually really messes with me sometimes. The anxiety of knowing I won’t get enough sleep actually keeps me awake sometimes, then I get more anxious and less likely to sleep, etc...

Getting an Apple Watch really hit home how bad alcohol is for sleep. Anything more than a drink four hours before sleep absolutely destroys my deep sleep. I go from ~3.5 hours of deep sleep to 1 or less. My resting heart rate is also 10 or

Confusingly I think this means that you can only use wireless headphones with the 'provided entertainment' when the flight has Wifi because that's how they get their entertainment to your device. If the flight doesn't ha

San Francisco is a big biking town and is very much not flat. You can get around on a bike in a hilly city, it's a combination of learning slightly longer but flatter routes to where you're going and getting used to the hills as y
