So I take it that your current workplace, which is somewhere that you do prefer to work at, resembles pre-acquisition Waze? Or why else would you want to work there? And according to your bio is Dropbox? Well good thing you let the whole HN

Does anyone else have the hardware issue where the iPhone can't output audio if it is tethered to the monitor (w/o speakers) via the lightning cable? AFAIK, the only app that works in this configuration is Facetime. For all other

That's actually not what they care about the most. Yes it's great to have players that will buy both consoles and both subscriptions. The companies don't worry about them as much because they already know it's a guarante

Maybe the distraction is voluntary because for higher cognitive individuals, like many here, they realize there's nothing they can do about it.

It's a form of FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) that's rooted in some personal insecurity. Some people can walk away from temptations of great wealth and power but I can also see how many people can't.

The foundries aren't nearly the lifeline people think it is. If China uses sneak attacks to destroy all the foundries, then what? Do you suppose US won't intervene? If US will still intervene then it was never the critical piece t

Maybe not as much as you would think. Naturally, not all males mate and the mating ratio is not always 1:1. Take humans for example, it's been shown our ancestors comprise mostly of females in a ratio roughly 3:2 to males. That is, som
