Some feedback. Link directly to your site. A pr.com url looks scammy and unprofessional (to me). There’s no mention of pricing. I know it’s in beta but products that don’t make it super easy to find pricing are an instant no for me. I’m not

You don’t have to match contract wages. There are benefits other than salary that contractors don’t have access to. But let’s be honest. It’s a marketplace. The solution to hiring is more money. That’s how capitalism works.

By your logic cryptocurrency should be the answer now. Cryptocurrency and blockchain have not been a big thing the last ten years, in that no one has solved a business problem or built something useful with it. My phone uses ML every day to

Long time resident of Atlanta. As a Southerner I don’t consider “it is the south” to be a con, and I really do enjoy living in Atlanta. I’m here by choice and feel confident I could live in almost any city I wanted. I don’t think you’ll fin

Study bibles — and a great deal of writing about the Bible — have a religious and evangelical perspective. They’re written by believers for believers. If you want to read the Bible to better understand your religion, find a study bible that

Get a study bible. The Bible itself is a vast work of literature spanning millennia and isn’t meant to be read cover to cover like a novel. It does not contain enough contextualization to guide you. You will require outside context for unde

>Because Apple is a monopolist There's little about Apple's place in the market that makes them a monopoly. Using this word to describe companies that engage in anti-consumer behavior is reductive and unhelpful.

I don’t think you should try to convince them to get vaccinated or to take this vaccine. They’re 12 and likely not legally of age to make their own medical decisions. You should educate them on the history of diseases and vaccinations and w

Didn’t work. I could tell from an early age that my son wasn’t interested in coding. But still I showed him what I did and the basics of programming. In high school when he had a class that required Java programming, I helped with the assi

I completely agree. A solution is available to us right now: regulation. Ignoring this solution in favor of economic growth or a future magic bullet is folly. Demand your government do more. If you are in the US and a Republican, at least p

I’ve been slowly moving away from Google for a few years. There are no Google apps on my phone. I use Chrome only when signing into Google accounts like gmail or docs and I only do that rarely. I’ve moved most of my workflow elsewhere. Gmai

Chrome is the Internet Explorer of this decade. I’m old enough to remember when some developers defended IE when it was hot trash. There’s just no excuse for using it.

You may find mental health counseling useful. A therapist can help you discover the aspects of your office life that are in conflict with your core values, and the aspects that are mere annoyances. This isn’t a suggestion that you are depre

Having the ability to read your work email is not the same as having a legal right to do so. My employer doesn’t have a legal right to view the contents of my purse or car even on company property. I realize the legality question will be di

I’m happiest as an individual contributor so this is not from personal experience, just observation. Start doing the job you want to be in. Solve the problems that the director or VP are solving. And find a mentor.

Could you imagine a government agency spying on its own citizens? In America that would be illegal and unconstitutional. We would have to immediately defund that agency.

Most 9-5 employees work a lot less than you think. Coders tends to think of productivity as all day long. Any task that isn’t coding is not productive. Look at a day in the life of management or administrative roles and you’ll see why the b

You’ve done some math. But consider that virus scientists, epidemiologists, front line health care workers, and hospital administrators have concluded that COVID-19 is much worse than the seasonal flu. Your math does not explain full ICUs a

Counterpoint. Countries are reporting higher death rates in even if you take out the deaths attributed to COVID-19. One possible explanation for this difference is people are dying from COVID-19 and not being counted as victims of the pande
