Less than 10% of the company self reported salary data over an unspecified time window, and a limited set of aggregate statistics are reported from this distribution. Certainly interesting information, but unfortunately I don’t think you ca

Just as a movie can go far beyond being a recording of a theatrical play, a video presentation can offer far more possibilities than simply being a recording of a slide presentation. It can allude to possibilities that are closer to experie

Video is usually more effective for asynchronous presentations. Powerpoint is great for spoken presentations where everyone is in the same room. But they generally suck as summary reports. For thinking and analysis word docs are superior. F

False comparison. New Hampshire is ethnically, politically and geographically American, and has been since before the revolution (that would be more like fighting for the Donbas). The Crimea would be more like if Russia took over one of Ame

This feels a little hyperbolic. I’m a world where Forever 21 was importing actual slaves chained to sewing machines I think the people accepting voluntary contracts that undercut the price of local labor are at most modern indentured servan

Crimea is traditionally Tartar, and majority Russian. It was always an autonomous region, and it was taken quickly and without a fight in 2014. In the intervening 7 years it wasn’t contested like the Donbas (beyond Ukraine cutting off the w

The Philippines saw a massive amount of American investment after WWII. I don’t have exact figures but it is comparable to South Korea. There are lots of differences. One Marcos was the most corrupt politician in history (in terms of total

The level of eye tracking performance for general population interactions is really only possible when you control the illumination like in a VR headset. A Vision Pro might work for the friend in question. More generally this requires the f

The article feels like it was written on a tight deadline by sleep deprived journalist trying to get something out. Theranos is a case of a place that calls itself flat when it really isn't. If anything the moral issue presented here

This article is not very good. It is riddled with non-sequiturs and irrelevant facts/opinions that doesn't really get into a lot of the subtleties and nuances around org structures. Flat vs hierarchical structures exist on a conti

Correct: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammeter Technically Am-meter is short for Ampere-meter. To me Ampmeter sounds like a much cleaner contraction, but it is what it is.

FWIW, I’ve walked across San Francisco many times and the longer I live there the more I enjoy traversing it. The city is beautiful, walkable, filled with nice spots to stop for snack/beverage and nearly half the expanse can be covered

Not sure about the downvotes. I kind of agree that the platform has cleaned up in the past few months. It feels more generic, clean and flat than before but also less trolly. Better and worse depend on your tastes, but I don’t think too muc

There should be no stigma for people in need taking help, but there should definitely be a stigma for wealthy people taking government support. Welfare is to help people who can’t get by one their own. Not to pad the pockets of the wealthy.

Eh, you’d be surprised how much particulates a 2 stroke engine with no catalytic converter spits out. But the more important point is that electric motorcycles are amazingly fun to ride. No clutch and crazy of acceleration gives an amazing

Q: What do you get when you cross a mathematician with an Intel Pentium Chip? A: A mad scientist! This bug is a great counterexample to the adage that 'computers don't make mistakes - they do exactly as they're told'.

An Orleanist interpretation of this aphorism is as credible as Louise-Phillip's claim to the French throne. Vautrin derives this statement from a near endless litany of examples. I would strongly recommend reading Balzac to get to the

Last I checked the feds treat income as an annual thing that happened a year ago. A six month period of unemployment does not mean your income is zero by their accounting.

This isn’t tourism, this is education. It is about training for skills that are presumably valuable for the country to have. Since there are also a limited number of spots and the tax payers foot the bill we should be more concerned that th

Nope - fundamentally different. First, multispectral imaging is a mapping of information into a form that can be easily seen and interpreted. It is not the wholesale synthesis of new information. The goal is to reveal the true structure to

Yeah it's cool tech but I really don't appreciate how it is just straight up deceitful and spreading misinformation. A lot of hues are underdetermined and the result is more or less arbitrary in a historical context. If one were t

There is a lot of overlap between people who support a lab leak hypothesis and people who did nothing to try to mitigate the effects of Covid-19. You are correct that these two behaviors represent an illogical contradiction, but the two iss

This is just gratuitous name calling and it has no part in a meaningful conversation. I would hesitate to call people crazy for believing in a theory that is increasingly well supported by the evidence. Please consider that the origin of Co

As per the OP this is an NYC specific phenomenon. The e-bike/moped delivery drivers will blast through stop signs and red lights at 20mph with pedestrians in the crosswalk. As a pedestrian having a bicyclist slow rolling a stop sign on

FFMPEG and ImageMagik would be a stretch but one could do with this openCV/Python. Of course easier said than done. You need to deal with image alignment, contrast changes and some math to get things looking clean. Having it all bundle
