Except that right now women who don’t want children experience a hiring penalty that men who don’t want children (and even men who do want children) don’t experience - due to an assumption that any given woman will take parental leave that

I agree. I just don’t understand why offering (and enthusiastically encouraging people to take) as much paternity leave as maternit leave would be a negative thing in this context.

How would this push any woman away from the choice to be a mother? And why should someone who wants to be a mother and a careerist have to accept more career penalties than someone who wants to be a father and careerist? And why should a wo

Will it still be possible to run in an ES2015-compatible browser without transpiling? That was one of the killer features of Vue for me.

Break it down, then break it down further, into tasks you expect to take no more than 8 hours. Then multiply the total by 3. Seriously. When I was freelancing, I always used this method, and 90% of the time would come in 10-15% under budget

Huh, I haven’t seen a link like that in months. Unless... is it inside that “...” menu?

Where is the “old interface” link?

How strict is your employer about butt-in-seat schedule? If you have full flexibility, I’d suggest aiming to hit 40 hours on a weekly basis rather than 8 on a daily basis. That gives you the flexibility to work, say, 10 hours one day becaus

But can you actually READ your monitor when it’s dimmer than a sheet of paper in ambient light?

But the denser you are and the more mixed-use areas you have, the less road mileage you need per resident.

You get a LOT more light from a backlight than from reflection, at least in indoor conditions.

This experiment seems to have been too short-term to have influenced genetics significantly.

In species where adults raise their young, the young are typically hanging around with the parent for a while between when they're able to walk/fly on their own and when they reach full maturity. The parent sees/smells a pred

You say that as if removing feral cats and other non-native predators is "simple".

It looks like it was a short-term experiment (way shorter than the lifespan of a single individual). The actual paper indicates the "bootcamp" lasted 18 months. And they had a control with two pens, only one exposed to the pred

How big are you already? Growing from 3 to 13 engineers in a month is very different from growing from 100 to 110 (and even the latter would be considered hyper-growth, especially if recurring for multiple months). The former level of growt

I would let your manager know your concerns and ask for permission to either pick bugs out of the issue tracker or request some from whoever your project manager is. Fixing a few bugs will help you get settled into both the codebase and the

When they email you a second and third time about the position that you deliberately ignored because it was such an obvious poor fit that you’d have reported it to LinkedIn as spam if there were a way to do so.

Jira now has a “simplified” workflow with no restrictions that’s automatically applied to new kanban projects. And their kanban boards are excellent, with swim lanes and soft column limits. Plus you can search the issue database like a real

That’s correct. There’s a difference between “often” and “always”. There are also several people posting in this thread who had their appendicitis successfully treated with antibiotics.

But also - how much of that is medical progress, and how much of that is ballooning costs coupled with insurance companies refusing to cover more than the absolute minimum (and in some cases much less than what really should be the minimum

Are there hypotheses now for the purpose of the tonsils the way they've developed some for the purpose of the appendix?

They delayed surgery before or after the rupture? Was it already ruptured when you arrived?

by cimmanom 8y ago
Pretty sure the whole point of this article is that often enough patients arrive in the emergency room at a point where it's NOT too late to treat successfully with antibiotics.

Sleep in particular occurs in cycles between deeper and lighter sleep, with different types of brainwaves at different points. For most people, these cycles last roughly 90 minutes. If you wake in the middle of a cycle, you’ll feel groggy.

Donate. There are a lot of organizations that collect secondhand phones for people in need, including the homeless, refugees, people escaping domestic abuse, and the like. Wipe thoroughly first, of course.

Yup. Call me old-school, but seeing markup like that makes me wince.

If you don’t use browser extensions, it may be a good choice. Most power users I know avoid it because its customizability is poor. It’s not a bad little browser. I often use it for sites that perform poorly in Firefox.
