There's definitely a middle distance where biking is the easiest way to get around. Particularly in Brooklyn, if you're traveling perpendicular to the direction of Manhattan you're almost certainly not served by transit anywa

Oh wow, are you me? I also remember being young enough to think I could just find a way around the Shareware Demon (lol) if I tried hard enough. I remember the brief but super fun Blades of Exile scenario community back then, there were s

That article -- and the lobbying group "study" it is based on have been pretty roundly condemned even by other journalism organizations e.g. https://www.cjr.org/the_new_gatekeepers/nyt-google-media.php tl;dr

Absolutely none of the things you listed are anything close to "basic". Those are things that newsrooms full of talented and well-coordinated professionals regularly get wrong, let alone software algorithms. You're listing ma

Not having the second half of the solution yet doesn't make the first half not a victory. Especially when the second half is making clear and rapid progress (rapid enough , probably not, but still...)

Not to fully excuse the Oculus, but calling it a "single station" is kinda ridiculous. It's a hub connecting 9 different lines, commuter rail, and the WTC buildings themselves, and also is a huge shopping center.

Yeah the accessibility of the manpages was clearly the least significant objection by far, but yours is the first comment about anything else.

If that's what your OKRs look like as a developer, then your company is doing them very wrong. They're supposed to be hierarchical, becoming more concrete as you go down the line. Your examples sound like top-level OKRs; mine are

I used to work at the times, they definitely have the docker tooling. Most production stuff runs on GKE. The author of the article has a long-standing affinity for GAE, though, plus it's just a quick maker week project so GAE still mak

At first glance it reminds me of an old paper I read on causal entropic forces, [1] which is kind of a thermodynamic approach to understanding the emergence of complex behaviors. I've always had that in the back of my mind as an idea I

Technically, I guess, but they do hold at the terminal stop for a while, and employees sometimes do a quick walkthrough or spot check.

This is an internal style guide, not external recommendations, as the title would suggest. Comments like these are really making me wary of the level of groupthink on here.

I find these discussions impossible because on capitalism, like so many issues, there's really no agreement on what's even under discussion. Depending on who you're talking to, "capitalism" can mean anything from th

For better or worse, I expect the opposite will happen. Future generations simply will not have the same expectations and fears around privacy. The modern Western conceptions of privacy are relatively anomalous from a historical perspective
