This sort of work feels gross to me. Just grasping and grasping at whatever random widget or piece of ad software or widget that someone will spend a few dollars on to increase people clicking on ads and dropping it as soon as it’s not prof

I was getting coffee this morning and walked by a parked truck of some new model of Chevrolet. I was aghast at the front end. It was (guessing) four or five vertical feet of chrome. And then the hood above that. Basically a pedestrian death

I think they’re not comparing to hypothetical performance of others, but comparing it to the threshold the FCC set originally, which SpaceX decided was achievable and so applied for subsidies based on their believed ability to hit the numbe

As far as I can tell in a cursory reading, SpaceX Starlink applied for subsidies with enumerated requirements. They cannot meet those requirements, so the subsidy is rescinded. Seems straightforward and doesn’t seem to matter, as far as I c

Yep. A small tangent for anyone who has seen these: they’re very clearly not specifically enforceable. I got a window banged up by things falling off a truck with this signage, and the first thing they said when I called their “How Am I Dri

I don’t think anyone thinks it’s impossible for apple, or even relatively difficult for them. I also don’t think anyone doesn’t understand that they try to lock people into their ecosystem. Not my favorite choice of theirs, but largely a bu

Somewhat worse, depending on your perspective, is that inert ingredients are confidential business information so while EPA has a list of what inerts are in what pesticides, that list is not publicly shareable. So, you as a consumer or citi

I am too. I do like the Model Y and have driven them hundreds of miles while doing rental cars. I ended up with a different EV because of Musk. I don’t make it a point to tell people this, and I don’t imagine anyone really cares why I got t

Respectfully to your Elon Musk / Nazi comparison you’re making (basically Goodwin’s Law right? Eventually someone was going to bring up hitler…) if the third reich were in power and selling Volkswagens I wouldn’t be buying one even if

But you’re more likely to kill someone when the remote forest fire you sparked by intentionally crashing your plane grew and took out a bunch of firefighters and a village than you are to kill someone driving to work.

I presume this is hypothetical. A reasonable start would be to see the difference average views on a video and views on this particular video times as revenue per view. Admittedly I’ve never heard of this guy and avoid most YouTube “creator

This is cool. If it were written into some movie I’d accuse the writer of lazy writing. Kudos to you. A similar coincidence happened to me early career. I had finished an internship, wasn’t sure what to do full time after, and ran into my o

My observation has essentially been all the random complaining you see online where “entry level requires experience,” which seems counterintuitive at first, is not counterintuitive if you consider than internships are really that pre-exper

Yes, I’ve had people recently on campus use this term. But to be totally fair, the point about it being a cringey term is not wrong.

Any ideas for how to redesign these? The thought is compelling. I’m thinking about it and even with EVs you’d still want four wheels, want to put the battery flat on the bottom for various reasons. So the base seems like it’s four wheels wi

I’m confused by the “aligned left” comment. Analogously this seems like saying left alignment in my word processor would mean the word processor would need to know what I was going to type before I type it. Can you explain?

It's not a new standard so this comic really doesn't apply here. It's just being opinionated, for once, about what to use. I welcome it strongly, as I do tools like Black for Python, which do similar things. Just set that up

I still use it daily. It seems the same to me as it was. Maybe some subreddits no longer exist, but as I predicted they were just replaced with other similar subreddits to fill the gap. But realistically they were totally fungible anyways,
