So, I work in tech and I may pattern-fit too much, but I feel some of it is due to PM culture in modern business and product development. In short, product teams in companies look for the best performing variant of products and once it dete

Isn't the context thing true for anyone learning a second language? I was an immigrant in the US as a teenager and it felt like that in English for me my first few years here. Eventually I got to a point where I can understand stuff wi

This feels like such a hard problem to solve; as a company (Airbnb) grows larger and larger this feels inevitable. I was a very early user of Airbnb and started using it back in 2012, when the platform was still mostly folks renting out ext

Before clicking, I legitimately thought this was going to be some sort of urine analysis med tech startup. What is the reasoning behind this product naming? Does therapee mean something in photography?

Yeah, I was wondering about this. What is actually angry about this? I had to take a moment to think about whether the suggestions are satire or serious, as it's hard to tell sometimes these days, but even after thinking about it -- wh

First thing I noticed as well! I think nowadays younger developers mostly simply equate "web frontend" with "React" subconsciously. :)

Also wonder if the PDF exploit works for only local/native PDF readers (e.g. Adobe Readers) or also web-based. If someone occasionally checks their personal email from a work laptop, chances are they'd only use the Gmail preview t

Not sure about "likely much cheaper". Those methods are either funded by VC money (for the case of early startups) or in the case of bigger companies, their other products that monetize you in other ways. BTC is expensive to trans

There is indeed a product with the name FreeOffice, in the same category, by SoftMaker.

Thank you, this works great for my current monitor on Windows. This is a good replacement for what I need.

I agree with you and GP; I'm just pointing out that the article does mention it as a primary reason: > Experts have said the Bay Area’s high housing costs and remote work policies, particularly for the tech industry, fueled out-migr

"width=device-width, initial-scale=1, user-scalable=no" seems like basically a setting that some tutorial had once posted many years ago, and all responsive sites just blindly took it as gospel; because it was supposed to give you

I don't totally disagree with you but that is a pretty purely monetary investment point of view. From Musk's position it seems unlikely he's viewing it as an investment; there are plenty of better investments in the world and

You and the person you reply to are both right. Having been on both sides of the aisle, after working for almost 2 decades, this really makes me not look forward to switching jobs anymore. Interviewing for a job really is the worst part of

I would've written something just like this a few years ago, but when the M1 was released, things really changed. It really is a lot faster than most other laptops for many types of work, and especially so for its price point.

I'll actually try to add and defend crypto a little bit here: > I think this is where insurance companies generally pop up as a solution. Real legitimate DeFi protocols are now often supported by DeFi insurance as well. I know nothi

Do you think your age and life (work) experience did that for you? I have noticed myself feeling considerably differently towards different games too. Games I used to enjoy (like Starcraft) back in the days, I enjoy a lot less as an older g

I don't think this mentions anything about housing or mortgages. I think it's a bit simpler than this. Higher income people currently already have their basic needs met and have a good amount saved up for eventual retirement. When

I miss the old Windows 95 days of every open window having a visible tab on the panel next to the Start menu. But of course, nowadays everyone has dozens of open applications at all times, so it's a less feasible design.

This thread just makes me think of the thankless job of native frontend developers working on Linux/macOS/Windows OSes that made these nuances and behaviors work exactly to a specific standard. Ok, maybe not thankless in the case

Happy or miserable would be subjective based on how the person takes it. But I can tell you the "prematurely age" part is simply because of the amount of work it takes to raise a child. This is universal, for all children. I don&#

There are things I agree and things I disagree, which leads me to think this is a pretty opinionated topic. For example with navigation, I thought the phone does it the same but having experienced a Tesla I honestly vastly prefer the Tesla

I feel like I agree with this in principle but the examples almost feel backwards to me. The bullet points under buying a house seems to be specifically about: 1) Overstretching your budget to buy bigger houses than you can afford, 2) Buyin

These stories almost always boil down to this fundamental conflict of what you want for a personal project vs a business. (though in this case yes, Troy Hunt's HIBP is larger than a lot of startup businesses) In a business setting, you
