I'm surprised a few HNW individuals with the help of the UN haven't just mediated and purchased the land that represents the DRC? It's clear these people have no clue how to control the land, feed their people or prevent war

Adafruit is an amazing source, their NeoPixel ecosystem is exceptional. They also offer an RGB NeoPixel strip variant with modules that ALSO have a dedicated "warm" or "cold" white LED module. This is great in case you

He did an AMA of sorts in the Discord Server a few days after the "launch" mostly a sob story about how it "was all his fault" and how he felt bad everyone was let down. No mention of a number of the systemic or toxic i

I feel like most founders / engineers likely don't have this problem.

AR500 is absolute garbage. Do yourself a favor and look into ceramic plates produced by Hesco or spend a bit more on some flexible armor from SafeLifeDefense.

Having read that now, I'm starting to think he was on some serious drugs the day it happened (most people aren't going to be able to stomach chopping up a human, led alone an animal) and then slowly lost it a number of days later.

I hate to admit it, as someone who previously lived with a friend who took mental health nose-dive and ended up a conspiracy theory nut, the practical side of my mind leads me to support this kind of theory. Of course, we'll never kno

It's not "paranoia" if the subject of the gender-bending either a) was not aware or b) was being held in a state funded institution and otherwise had no intention of "transitioning" to the opposite gender...

Journalists looking to twitter for the "pulse" of culture or current "narrative" is akin to creatures of the jungle who sit under mango trees and wait to consume rotting mangoes that fall beneath the tree. After a while

Wow, this cuts really deep. This makes me want to take more risk in life, to live a bit fuller and care less about money. Even at 26 I still don't have a great way to digest loss like this. The loss of someone who I genuinely looked u

Shared workspaces and offices like WeWork seem to pose the biggest threats to "common infosec" but mostly in the form of digital dumpster diving. Although, the WeWork office the startup I work for occupied in NYC pre-covid had mul

Haha, I was thinking of a 50lb block of epoxy resin cast around the device, with metal rods protruding down to the touch sensors.

I fully support steps being taken to reign in police and ICE, however it's still painfully ironic that CHAZ currently has been prioritizing enforcing borders, has roaming groups (peaceful and otherwise) ousting dissidents or those deem

Thanks for your thoughts on the matter. To be clear, on a good day I consider myself average with a wildly varied set of interests. Oddly, knowing elixir (as much hate as it gets here on HN) has landed me one or two positions alone.

In hindsight, what do you think lead you astray? Curious if you took an academic route, associating more education with greater skill or just focused on the "wrong" thing?

This has always resonated with me and it's a big reason I think people who are "good" at school stay in academia. It's a consistent and reliably good measure of "I'm good at this thing" however damaging t

> The worst feeling was hanging with peers that you felt they were way beyond your skills and seeing how everything was "natural" to them. This is what is most painful for me. In high school I was hailed by my friends as &quot

Thanks for sharing your story and thoughts. For me, a lot of it is wishing I didn't have to "catch up" with certain mathematical or statistical concepts I now run into with side projects and find super interesting. I'll

Thanks for your comment, I feel like I should've edited the post to include that I don't mean in anyway to brag. College in a lot of ways was a very painful and turbulent time for me. Granted, I'm still horrible at FAANG sty

Given current events and overwhelming negative evidence of Huawei's corporate behavior why would anyone sensible want this?

As a white male whose gone genetically bald at 25, I'm pretty sure I've ended up being a "diversity" hire multiple times. And NO, I do not have plans to pay for products or scams to "get my hair back". Oddly,

I'm 25 and bald (not by choice by genetics haha - I don't really mind it at this point). Oddly I think this has gotten me hired as a "diversity" hire, even though I'm a white male. I've only had one experienc

I'm not that idealistic and I still found my time at Amazon overwhelmingly distasteful. The amount of shielding / work to just appear productive / effective at multiple levels of both tech and management was moronic. I'

Ahhh, in that case I completely agree! Thanks for correcting me :)

Sort of, but since it's on a platform is it really "natural" traffic? Think about it, why do you think FinancialSamurai was always just a decent looking WordPress page and never a Medium or FaceBook blog?

Likely no. I think most people here would rather go through the effort of setting up a static page on Netlify or otherwise. Even if your service is top notch, the features you're describing would definitely eventually require an incr

100% agree with this. However, a few years in college could for someone without a degree translate into 5-8yrs of underpaid drudge work. Pick your poison. Pick your pain.
