It is the same limit for me. The car should be able to go until I am tired driving it, which is around 6 to 8 hours driving at 120km/h, including breaks of 15-20 minutes each 3 hours. Then I can accept a 30-45 minute break to charge if

What about using neutrinos for interplanetary communication between ground bases on different planets? Since they are hard to be stopped by any kind of matter, it should be a good way of ensuring the link stays stable with only one base, in

There is a big difference between defending a basic human right (e.g. a murderers right to be judged fairly) and a company explicitly putting illegal clauses in a contract to bully their current and past employees. An ethical lawyer would (

I feel like it comes back down to the ethics. A lawyer should not accept the case, because they should know the case is not valid, but they do it regardless. If there was a repercussion for accepting too many invalid cases or suing people f

I am not saying that inheritance is a natural right. I agree that inheritance should not exist, because it is unfair. But, still, even if you get rid of inheritance, the kids will have different environments while growing up, it will still

It is actually simple: The wealth gap will not close, because not everybody is born equal. Wealthy people will have wealthy kids (the right of inheritance), kids can use the wealth to increase their wealth because they will have more opport

Only advantage I see is "No telemetry" option, which you can disable in firefox.

What is wrong with firefox?

HTTPS should protect you from that.

Also, when you think about it, they put a lot of lives at risk by publishing, seemingly, false information in a critical time.

At least they adhere to the rules, the process is slow and inconvenient for every resident, unlike my home country where process difficulty ranges from extremely easy to impossible based on who you know and your political status.

With the amount of fame he is getting with this post, I would be surprised if he did not receive 30+ offers that pays well yet. Edit: Of course, the big 5 (FAANG) will not touch him even with a 10 meter pole, but there are other places also

I wonder if the current behavior can change if majority of companies start allowing remote work for a wide area of job families. I think we are already starting to see this in Bay Area with the introduction of remote work in leading tech co

This is a problem for our generation actually. The two generations before us became rent seekers about everything and from what I can see %90 of current population is unable to acquire significant income to buy anything meaningful. We are g

This is actually a good anecdote, which makes me wonder: Did we evolve our taste mechanism to make meat and everything nourishing to taste good, so we can actively seek and put effort into acquiring next meal that tastes better?

I think a new wage fixing agreement between companies within SV is going to happen, just to avoid the situation you have mentioned in your reply.

They did add a "Notify me three days before renewal" button, but still finding the correct pattern to cancel it is a pain.

Agreed on the dark pattern and difficulty of cancelling. Today I cancelled my Prime subscription and had to first the cancel button, then I had to click "Cancel my subscription" button three times, which I had to find it along wit
