I disagree with the premise of someone being more powerful. What does power mean? You serve a role in an organization and have expertise. It’s your duty to provide that expertise to the firm and/or its clients, no matter their level. T

I'm not sure I understand your position. eSIM has been present in iPhones since the XS model. You were free to use it over a physical sim wherever supported. What's happening with iPhone 14 is they are upselling eSIM while reducin

Perhaps it's because the world is in such turmoil these days and we just lost one of the most (if not the most) stalwart figures on the world stage. I'm not British but that's how it hits me.

Weird. I've got the QC35 (v1) and have no issues switching devices. I don't even have the Bose app on my phone.

This sounds like a YOU problem. I used to drink in my 20s and gave it up at age 30. I have no problem asking for a Diet Coke or whatever non-alcoholic drink I want. Insecurity doesn't even enter into my mind. Furthermore, I still &quot

My understanding is that Amazon supports conversions of EPUB to MOBI through their "email to your kindle" feature. Is there a firmware update planned for Kindles to support EPUB natively?

Maybe this is inexperience on my part, but the LCNC tools I've used are very clunky, with UIs that are plain at best, and performance that is cumbersome. While there is certainly a place for them in the business world, I can't see

The video and commentary are not from Princeton. This is from a political organization (represent.us) with a political agenda.

I still enjoy a good forum. Forum posts feel more permanent than Slack/Discord/Teams where it's much more conversational. The latter feels more like IRC with more history retention and the ability to do voice and video.

I think the pseudo-moralist argument you are making is really cringe, as it's often the type of language the professional managerial class uses to shame employees into accepting less than they are worth. "You're not here for

I have an MS ECE from Georgia Tech and did embedded systems for the first 4 years out of school. The pay was terrible, promotions were rare. So I left.

They are downplaying this whole thing heading into the midterm elections. Inflation is transitory, it's the supply chain, it's Putin, it's gas station owners and oil companies, we're doing a soft landing. These are all c

I run a large service contract of over 60 people. We've had really no issues with remote work over the last 2+ years since the pandemic started. Several staff were ousted for performance reasons but they were low performers to begin wi

I worked at a corporate Blockbuster for just over a year during high school. I made $7.15/hr and I commuted using my bicycle. Best job I ever had.

Freedom of speech is a right of the people against the government. Not between employees and employers. The level of frank discourse a corporation will tolerate is based on its individual culture and subject to change. This is an oversimpli

Isn't the 6-foot man more likely to make $237k than the 5'6" man? I know I've seen that study somewhere. That's double the pain for the vertically challenged (myself included).

Wirecutter was great when it was independently owned. Since it was bought by NYT it doesn’t seem as neutral. They conveniently seem to favor products sold by Amazon or Walmart where they can get referral fees.
