What grease? The base is vegetable glycerin that hospitals use in their nebulizers, used in smoke generators at concerts and has been repeatedly proven to be absolutely safe for human inhalation.

Probably high frequency hedge funds because being first matters a lot. That 300mm is the difference between winning and losing, it’s pretty binary up there.

The entire field is absolute hogwash. Blind testers can’t tell the difference. I was mad the other day because I saw wine glasses categorized by what kind of wine should go in them— give me a break.

It’s a balance between siphoning brain away from the rest of the world and maintaining decent wages. Wages for developers are definitely not low, and that’s the truth.

It’s unethical to hire foreign talent and provide a legal means of entry for high quality immigrants? This is a despicable take and very suspect agenda minded rationalization.

Graphics cards. I’m hoping the 30XX series sees a sharp price drop with the new cards coming out.

The difference here is people physically cannot manage and protect a large amount of cash and not having it in banks means you gradually lose money over time. This isn’t the case with crypto where you can carry potentially all the wealth in

Vaping is significantly less dangerous than smoking, it’s not just some “false” perception. Without added flavors you can argue it is completely harmless and in some ways beneficial (nicotine has several health benefits).

This does not resonate with me. I need to look off into infinity if I’m saying anything taxing and that’s hard to do if I’m focusing on someone’s eyes.

It’s a real loss when we lose tribes like this because we also lose 50,000 years of accumulated knowledge.

Nonsense, in countries with higher gender equality women naturally flow to careers more in line with their strengths, tech is not one of them. Men and women are not equal.

Not really, minorities generally easily make up more than 25% at tech companies. You don’t have to go out of your way to make that happen. It’s just not possible to get 50% of women in without significant handicaps to the interview process.
