I’d be interested to know if anyone living in these areas has had trouble with insurance rates over this period. I realize many people aren’t fans of insurance but some of these areas seem quantifiably troublesome to live in short term.

Unless it’s expected behavior that malfunctioned. Antecdotally I’ve found a lot of companies support have almost no leeway for appeasement if the triggering behavior is considered “expected behavior” or a bug based off of it.

My concern is that this almost sounds like something not customer facing was accidentally made customer facing imho.

Interesting, I totally understand that this is adult entertainment and that it carries it’s own implications. But I hope this isn’t the way of the future, direct tunneling to get through restrictions, snooping, and regulations.

Kroger seems to have some vision on technology implementation. I’ve been impressed with thier clicklist (online grocery pickup) here in Salt Lake City. Looking forward to having this available.

Going through this myself at the moment. Would love to move from the small city I work in remotely now to a larger city for more tech opportunities. But even within the same large multinational I work for if there isnt a sufficient salary b

The powers that be are not properly incentivized to battle against robocalls and in many cases are simply looking the other way.

Fair enough, even as an employee for a large for-profit corp I’ve never thought of that term as a slur. Regardless It’s a catchall term that should probably be overwritten with more specificity. Thanks for taking the time!

I was just about to mention this, the relationship between life expectancy and age of politician would really help to interpret this data. My hypothesis is that late stage capitalism has moved the ability to have the resources and freedom t

The trick here seems to be boiling these messages down to a digestable bit for non-tehnical audiences without oversimplying. In my experience very few people want to hear my thoughts on last mile infrastructure in the US but do care when th

Not to be overly pessimistic but this sentiment seems to be one of the the default themes at the moment. Fear of not getting a cut whether you offer value in that space or not.

Hmm I’m on the fence on what this means exactly. Wording change seems to be fairly innocuous but the visuals here are not good.

I’d have to agree with this. The first charector that comes to mind for me is Magneto I think he reacts how a lot of people would even though that makes him an antagonist. I had a history teacher use him vs Professor X in Jr. High as a way

Similar thing is happening to my wife’s hospital stateside. Management consultants have gone as far recommending the removal of snacks from all levels including those serving children. Which then in turn has operational employees battling m

The efficiency quandry is really interesting to me. It makes me wonder if there is a practical limit to the utility of pure efficiency for a society? Obviously there are huge upsides to efficiency in resource usage etc. but it seems to harm

This one is interesting to me. As someone with a brand new puppy (not our first dog) I’ve noticed Pet Smart my only local pet-store charging higher and higher prices. It’s gotten to the point where we are now buying some of the same product

Seems logical I definitely agree with the sentiment about markets existing to serve people. I’m in a similar place with my research I know enough to know there is a problem but then again thats the easy part fixing it is the tough bit.

I agree with a lot of this thanks for the response. What are your feelings on some kind of regulation around local protections? I know regulations are generally percieved quite harshly on HN. But in a highly efficient market it seems like y

I’m not an economist so someone with more insight can weigh-in if I’m speaking out of turn. My personal concern with Amazon is a similar one I had with Wal-Mart in that there seems to be a relationship between stagnant wages acceptance base
