I think there is a lot of room in ecommerce for a "trusted brand" like costco where you can just thoughtlessly buy from because I trust they did the research. Amazon used to be that around 2013/14, but now I prefer to spend

I read this paper in undergrad in a course entitled "Science Fiction and Galactic Capital", which was honestly probably my favorite course in all of college. We would read Das Capital and then compare it with sections of Dune, Red

Honesty, this is incredible that such a basic feature is a tossup. To me these small, maddening anti-features that one by one, bring you to the edge of the abyss are exactly the reason I will never return to Windows. My Mac just works. Occa

Big side note, but what you just exhibited is one of my favorite things about this community: admitting being wrong. It wasn’t really until the workplace where I encountered level-headed people that would just shrug their shoulders and say

I say this as someone who used to firmly agree with this position, but in the last year my mind has been changed without reservation. The time where this was a good idea has genuinely passed. There is no earthly way that any reasonable orga
