Unless you're already extremely out of band and are pretty sure your range will be higher than 95% of your incoming offers, I do not recommend doing this. Never give first numbers, and if you're in software and haven't gotte

Yes and: what is this? Literally: what is it? A tool for taking markdown notes that doesn't render it and runs as a web server?

I have many of these problems plus: the advertised tap-to-control behavior never seems to work when I want it to. It only activates when my AirPods are misinterpreting my adjusting them as trying to pause what I’m listening to. And, of cour

I'm coming to the same conclusion. Judging by just how far down I had to come to find this comment even on a site like HN, it's pretty clear people are uninterested or unable to read, put things into context, and think critically

So is the entire computer in the headset, or am I missing something? It seems like it would be heavy, no? I haven't followed this space closely, so apologies if it's an ignorant question.

We have seen it too. And they did point to data: a rise of posts about it on social media. They also interviewed experts about the issue and why it's happening.

Boy, it’s really clear from the comments section no one is actually reading the article. There are some good tips and ways of thinking differently here.

I honestly just ran out of steam by the halfway point. It felt like every paragraph could have been reduced to a sentence and every section reduced to a paragraph.

There are unfortunately a lot of career upsides to making things more difficult and complex than they need to be. Making things simple and straightforward is often has neutral career outcomes at best, and if you consider the downstream eff

Holy crap. I'm assuming this company is utterly filled with sleazebags to allow something like this to actually get past the joke-at-a-brainstorming-meeting phase.

I’m really early thirties and it resonates with me. I’ve been successful, but it’s hard not to look at any of the other paths I could have taken and wonder “what if.” Or, more precisely: what now?

Yes, thank you. It’s quite an interesting observation, but to call this article shallow would be too generous. With a few wording tweaks to add a dash of self-awareness, this would be perfectly contradictory satire.

Rather than try to refute or explain any of these (as everyone else is doing), I just want to say I think some of these are quite good questions (the last two intrigue me in particular).

I can't make sense of this article. Did the dad stop working as much? Keep on working as much? Work more? The intro makes it seem like he learned to work less, but then the rest makes it seem like he didn't.
