If you're at the office at 1am, you probably need a union, not music. Work ends, at latest, 8 hours after you get there. People actually died for that a century ago, and now people are just throwing it away.

Including the Swift compiler itself - though at least that might prevent the segfaults.

This is downvoted presumably for lack of information, but it's pretty much true. The Swift compiler segfaults very frequently. I do find this amusing in that it's the compiler for a theoretically largely-memory-safe language (yes

Why is this in English? Both the ad itself, and the prompt for Siri - which is presumably set to Swedish on most people's phones in Sweden?

Of course, but it's pretty well accepted that fibrous and fatty foods are typically more filling that sugary foods, with fewer calories (especially for fibrous foods). It doesn't invalidate intake with respect to TDEE being the pr

Coffee is so weird, because people just become dependent on it, and start talking about how they "need their coffee" in the morning before they can function. It just seems to reset back to the original state, except now you need t

If you didn't count your calories, there's no way to tell where you were eating relative to your TDEE. People think they're eating more than they are all the time, it's an incredibly common thread on any fitness forum.

I've been in the Facebook office and it's true that they have information posted above the urinals. Didn't really read it though.

This doesn't look like something that can be stored in an apartment, unlike a bike (and presumably an electric bike, which are about the same size). Having to park it outside is a huge hassle and theft risk, I'd never leave my bik

The light is even automatic on human-powered bike share bikes. This seems like an obvious oversight or lack of necessary regulation.

Yes, I wouldn't mind the police just going ahead and pulling PIT maneuvers on the speeding delivery salmon in NYC... except that would require them to drive their cars on the sidewalk. Joking, mostly: the police have no problem driving

No one making "very good money" (I assume >= $100k) needs to live with roommates in NYC. You can easily afford a 1br on that, and in a trendy neighborhood too, e.g. Williamsburg. And once you have a partner to move in with, you

"Metro Vancouver" is not Vancouver, though. People there are the equivalent (from my NY perspective) of the people upstate, Jersey, and CT - they can have their cars if they want, but we shouldn't accommodate them here in Man

Personally I always just used my apartment (dual monitors, good chair) and found the attraction to the library strange, but... presumably people treated it like... a library? There were no dogs running around. No one played music. No one he

My vague understanding of a turbine was that it was a spinning magnet, so if you killed the circuit it would just... spin, I guess. If this is a concern, why isn't there a worry that ISIS or just a stray bomb would kill the power lines

I get tons of emails from recruiters, marketers, etc. I reply to none of them, and I think it's unfair that by sending me mail that I don't want they are implicitly entitled to labor (writing a response) from me.

That sounds like a bad way to live - I don't want anyone (and especially marketing nonsense, which is so much of the email that I get, despite me flagging all of it as spam) to be able to interrupt me at any time (still wish I could se

The dream of a compiles-to-native-executable language with a strong compiler, probably. Rust would also apply.

The obvious example is The Americans , and... nothing else comes to mind. Everything else worth watching is created by Netflix or HBO (or maybe Amazon).
