I think for demanding jobs the distinction between remote and in-office is non-trivial. If you expect people to push themselves to (and past) the limit, coming into the office and handling all the interruptions that entails is an enormous s

I'm 38, remote, and can't imagine working in-office ever again. Our small-ish team (~25) works very effectively remotely. But I suspect you're right. I learned a huge number of skills being in high velocity office environment

i used to work with publishers (incl many implicated in this article) and they often operate on the presumption that everyone would be paying for a news subscription, if only tech companies weren't twisting their arms and misdirecting

moderates / reasonable people keeping quiet is the reason we got into this collective problem in the first place. not to pressure OP, it's an understandable point of view. but it's time for reasonable people to speak up.

I hear this criticism but it always seems to be from people who claim to rarely go on Twitter. I use it all the time and see basically zero bot content. My feed is full of high quality info and it's been a far better source than most m

Moving back to my hometown to be near my closest friends is one of the best decisions I've ever made.

it's laughable that engineers and product teams wanted to unionize. get real, people.

For this reason there's a pretty good argument to be made that legacy and donation status shouldn't be taken into account when determining admissions. Ditching standardized testing, however, is going in the wrong direction.

I don't think this is necessarily true -- if you limit your sources to "good" ones (thoughtful, reliable, with minimal political agenda -- I'd include the economist and a handful of substack writers in this mix) then you

yes, same in Canada afaik. seems quite plausible to me that some of these bills will be sent to OceanGate, we don't know. ofc their ability to pay is another question.

Lots of talk about carbon fiber, ofc. But also seems relevant that that this seems to be one of the only (or truly the only?) deep sea submersibles with a non-spherical personnel chamber.

Respectfully, I’m not allocating those funds myself. I share your frustration about the unequal devotion of resources to helping people. But that doesn’t mean that these people aren’t worth saving, or grieving.

I'm just trying to understand your philosophical position: I don't have to care about certain people, as revenge for others not caring about a different group of people? For me all human life is precious and equally worthy of effo

Whatabouism. Also tragic. Being sad over this does not preclude being sad about those events.

Well I wouldn't agree with either position. Human life is human life, but I guess some people seem to believe that either poor OR wealthy people are less deserving of sympathy, care, and investment of resources. I happen to disagree, b

You're probably right but I, like you, am a lurker on the internet and not in possession of every single fact, so I'm choosing my words.
