I was a senior dev at a big tech and got laid off in November. I have applied to hundreds of places. Not a lot of responses. I have been doing interview preps the whole time. It has been very demoralizing and I am thinking of switching care

This is a good list but I want to know how they came up with duration and effort numbers. It seems like hand waving.

I think Wittgenstein would say that the question of whether unconditional love is possible is a semantic game. The critics would see from the perspective of “absolutely unconditional love” where the absolute aspect of this idea will provide

I am ambivalent about this statement after recalling stories about dogs eating their owners’ corpses after they unexpectedly died alone in their homes locked with their dogs without anyone knowing. This myth about dog’s unconditional love i

Yet another another great product that is falling prey to the newism ideology where change is almost worshipped for its own sake. You see this problem everywhere nowadays from Cinemas to architecture. People have lost the ability to appreci

Yes and no. Yes, because it could demonstrate how much you like the company to be willing to look beyond the immediate-term risk of becoming part of any near future layoffs. Also, it shows that you are brave and confident in your own abilit

This is very true and those rent seekers are the ones pushing cashless. They stand to benefit from the resulting oligopoly.

Cambodia is a great choice in my opinion. Check out this (Itchy Feet on the Cheap) Canadian YouTuber’s reasons why he chose Cambodia after living in many countries including Vietnam: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IFlFA0b9070

If you flip your windows AC unit around, then you get the exact amount of heat energy removed by the AC in the form of hot air going into your room. This is called a heat exchanger. It was just cheaper to use gas furnace heater when most ho

This vaguely reminds me of Ronald Wright’s “Rebellion of the Tools.” There is a lot of momentum involved in a lot of human behaviors. People tend to prefer familiarity (including the foreign but familiar kinds.) Salience and repetition crea

I kept reading the title as “The Memory Leak Theory.” Even after knowing it’s about meme. The down side of fast reading habits.

I second this. While we are at it, we should have a national registry for corrupt or abusive police and other government employees. Once you get on the registry it stays for some years and you get to enjoy the better salary levels of privat

That’s why I only carry enough cash for what I need to spend on. This works great as a budgeting tool also. If you only have $50 cash, you would never end up spending more than that. That and a credit card as a backup in case a cop shows up

Businesses should accept cash as a signal to potential customers that they are not some snobbish high-tech cashless only establishments. Also, there are a million other regulations that businesses have to deal with from license and insuranc
