Investors dont care about price, they care about margins. If the cost to build an iphone goes down over time (I don't know that it does, just something to check for) it doesn't matter that the price is the same.

Punching nazis will also make you popular if people believe you are punching Nazis. That doesn't mean you should do it. First, of course, what if that person isn't actually a Nazi? Either mistakenly or maliciously labeled Nazi. Se

I know very little on the datacenter operations side of things - I guess 3 people is not a lot, but what is normal? How many operations people are at say AWS US-East-1? I presume it doesn't scale with number of servers, that would not

I think the union failure they are referencing is the weak accountability that the union is holding USPS to. The union signed off on this money order compromise even though it has significant disadvantages for the workers and gives full abs

I'm curious about this. I watch youtube a bunch and I never see rabbit hole videos. E.g. I've never seen the videos you mentioned. Is it because I'm signed in? I don't understand why I don't get any shady videos fro

This article is pretty light on details. What exactly are the new fees? In what situations do they apply? Is there some specific reason why Visa & Mastercard are doing this at almost the same time (beyond regular greed)?

Doesn't it rely on external cameras to see users hands and use that as the "click" inputs? Seems like that negates usage for ALS cases. Also, I'm not an ALS expert, but if the only muscular control is in the eyes, then l

He also made claims about reusable rockets and electric cars. "Mars man bad" only makes sense when you cherry pick Elon quotes. You can say Elon is an asshole. You can say he exaggerates. You can say he lies. You can say he makes

Can you explain why you believe it is "PR hogwash"? It seems like they are putting a lot of capital and effort into making their stated vision a reality. I'm not denying that SpaceX, like any other company, pulls PR strings a

I can't help you on the job front, but I found this site a long time ago (I think also on HN) and I've always thought that if I was in your position it would be important to me: https://efficiencyiseverything.com/

The wealth is not spread. The same few companies still control that $2T, they just moved their offices. All that happened is that now NY&CA lost some jobs/tax revenue.

That's now how public organizations are defined in the slightest.... You can complain that the way the world works is broken & should be fixed, but you can't redefine words to make your argument.

Its not a public org though. - its non-profit. I'm not a fan of sharing search data either, but I think its unfair to put extra shame on College Board.

This seems like mostly clickbait? They don't actually share your scores, they share your search history? If you score a 2400 but search for colleges that accept 1600 then fb gets the 1600 number, not your real number of 2400. I would r

What I want to see in a claim like this, and I don't (or missed it) is that cases of cancer for parts of the body where cellphones are commonly places (head, hip/groin) are increasing. Otherwise it seems like the external view of

I wonder how they did their selections. Some of the choices surprise me, such as reduction of staff on comp sci, software eng, electrical eng. I presume those departments would be where people want to go because of the big paying jobs.

Companies choose providers and tend to stick with them, but people don't always stick with companies. If I know TF there is a decent chance my skills will be applicable when I change companies. Also some big corps run their own interna

If you don't take couple to mean literally two and instead use the colloquial definition of 'a handful', say 10, then you'll find there are many devs making $120 an hour. Also you pay this once, this isn't some recu

These visualizations are great to give you a basic sense of whats going on up there, but they do not represent any sort of realistic scale. If they did then the visualization would be boring because everything would be WAY too small. Also i

Which is ironic because they are now taking large steps to wind down at least part of their Marcus business. Just today I think it was announced that they sold off $1B of loans on the Marcus books, and they are also looking to sell of Green
