While that is annoying, I think we should clarify that it is not abuse. I hesitate to even consider it manipulation. Maybe I am missing something. Could you give an example? It sounds dishonorable at most, but not offensive. To be honest, m

I am an advocate of apologies and have to actively practice not apologizing too much. I really believe in the value that can come of them, but that value is also dependent on how they are responded to. There is no hard rule, of course. It

The problems I’ve had were already documented in open Github issues and someone had found a hacky workaround for one of them, but they don’t appear to have anyone trying to fix them. I could hardly comprehend the problems, as they were well

The HN post title ’Fertility rates decrease as rents increase’ to the article’s ’People Aren’t Having Babies Because The Rent’s Too Damn High’ reflects this well. Thanks HN.

To be fair, I lived in Portland from 2013-2017. But I don’t think it was a ever a staple as much as a statement.

I tried Pipenv and loved it. I look forward to using it again. I wish I had the skills to confidently contribute. As a 3D artist, I have to use Windows a lot and Pipenv doesn’t cooperate well with Windows shell.

There is no American counterpart for euro chavs, and it’s too late for that now. Euro chav fashion has been very influential in America over the last decade. A lot of Americans think chavs were hip as a result.

I guess I have a different definition, or at least a different threshold, for what I consider spam. This particular situation was not extreme but I still consider it spam. They continued emailing me around twice per month with the same offe

Why doesn’t ‘Stater Brothers’ (the other warehouse in the article) outsource like you say? ‘Stater Brothers’ is paying their unionized employees double the hourly wage with extra earnings potential and significantly better benefits. Are you

For the record, I am a technical and sometimes creative grunt and this kind of research is far from my specialty. The last time I tried to do this, I exhausted everything I could find on the internet and was still very short. I was research

This is more or less the ongoing wider state of 3D software. There’s a pile of exceptions to every rule around each corner. If anything, coding has become less important as better software design evolves.

I will elaborate: I lived in Portland until approximately 2 years ago, close to the river. I volunteered on one occasion with some activists at this event: https://www.google.com/amp/s/articles.oregonlive.com/

It would do them some good to be be more homeless epidemic conscious. Any political gesture Portland could collectively be proud of is undermined by it’s failure to show concern for the members of it’s own society.

True! That's why you want to whisper to a friend , ideally one who invited you along. This 1. minimizes the exposure of you being an outsider 2. minimizes the friend's exposure of having invited an outsider and 3. shows your fr

The codes change regularly and different social cliques or professional verticals distinguish themselves by them, so they can be hard to Define. When in doubt: don’t be a tourist. Know how to pronounce the items on the international restaur

I don't think the accusation is particularly that the market manipulation was intentional but that it was nonetheless an effect of the money printing.

Yeah, there’s not any reason in the sense you’re looking for. The explanation is mostly rooted in cultural expression and associated social loyalties. There are political strings being pulled and all of that but you’re right. It’s totally b

Reading these comments has made me feel very stupid for treating recruiter messages like spam. Better late than never! I have been off the job market for almost a decade and things appear to have changed a lot. Do you have any advice for wo
