I love the idea of this sort of thing, but FWIW I personally don't think the lean "make a landing page to gauge interest in a product before we make it" is that effective these days, sorry.

This is why I'm not particularly worried about working remote/WFH from the US. I've heard the scare tactic that "your manager will move your job overseas for cheaper!" - but inevitably most companies have no idea

Are there decent paying jobs now? I was an EE then CompE major and, while I enjoyed it and think my engineering degrees were solid, all the jobs and better pay were in software. I'm glad I liked to program as a hobby, otherwise my ca

That’s true, I’ve seen examples of someone jumping to conclusions or taking the worst possible interpretation of a text, which is probably a red flag even in real life, face-to-face communication

Online "dating" that involves texting is just such a terrible fit. Most people either have poor reading comprehension or lack ability to write clearly, and that's the worst combo for relationship building. It's really no

I'm addressing the extraordinary claim that "Trump is a Russian agent" and that now we are suddenly now being soft on Russia. If so, why didn't Putin mount a full invasion in 2016-2020? Why wait until 2022 when the supp
