I agree that housing is a part of it, but I think time is a bigger factor.

I grew up in the middle east. Yes, there are some who want to do things, but not forever. Furthermore, women in the middle east own a higher percentage of small businesses compared to women in the US for example; most who want to work, actu

I hope this has an effect on wages increasing so that two parents working full time isn't the only option for middle-class families.

I might be a little dumb, but I genuinely found the article confusing. I have some questions nonetheless. What exactly is "Age Assurance"? Secondly, why would Age Assurance hinder new companies that want to create content platform

The EU is European Project. I think it's very easy to take the benefits of the EU and our resulting prosperity for granted. We need to actually have some power in the US-EU relationship, and the only way is to combine further. I don&#x

How do we just kill the bill? This is a terrible piece of legislation through and though and has been masquerading as something to protect childen.

I'd like to understand this better. Is the EU parliament incapable of blocking this bill?

I'm afraid that your proposition is too extreme. I believe in the European project, and this position seems like we're trying to kill a fly with a bazooka.

How do we as Europeans make sure that this ugly piece of legislation never rears its ugly head again.

Like so many other treatises on engineering management, this fails because it does not focus on people, it focuses on tasks and treats people as compute.

Am I the only one who didn't know that UPS drivers were paid 6 figures? This is news to me.

I went to Ireland just last month, and I have to say that the Airport was significantly better than what it was 2 years ago. This news puts a damper on my raised expectations.

I think you read a different article. Miguel is aggrieved by the fact that it is no longer a developer focused company, which was the reason for its success. Sure, you need sales, marketing and the rest of it; it does not mean that you need

What is a good alternative to reddit?

It isn't. It has pretty much decimated their industry to the point where there are no decent tech companies in Spain, and the few that exist do not pay those local rates (typeform for example).

From PayScale, the upper is at $50K. You wouldn't even get an average developer for that salary in Barcelona for example.

by gamesbrainiac 3y ago
Those figures are wrong to be honest. Most senior folks in Spain don't work for Spanish companies in general; they work for EU companies that pay more. Plenty of senior folks in Spain making $100k+. In Barcelona, you can make north of

No it does not. It requires all formal communications to be recorded, but nothing else. No WADU.

This is dystopian. Something like this would be illegal in the EU.

This seems like something out of a Dystopia novel. For some reason, it reminded me of severance.

I really don't understand tipping culture in America. Are you required to tip? Why do restaurants not pay their staff enough to live?

Which version though? 3.5 or 4? It does not state this explicitly. There is a world of difference between 3.5 and 4.

Not for everyone. A new societal class has emerged, comprising individuals who can work remotely indefinitely (I'm lucky to be one of them). In contrast, workers in industries requiring proximity to their workplaces, such as truck driv

I think you have a point there. AGI doesn't have a straight-forward litmus test.

I think there are some interesting questions: - Sam does not have equity in OpenAI. Does this mean he can potentially be removed at any point in time? - OpenAI's profit arm will funnel excess profit to its non-profit wing. If this is t

For me, it comes down to the cohesiveness of the whole thing. VSCode plugins often feel janky.
