Isn’t this a forum of hackers caring about the news? Everyone seems excited here and that excitement naturally leads into curiosity for many who identify as hackers.

As with everything I'm sure there is a spectrum. There are surely folks who have food addictions, there are surely folks who are not taking accountability for their habits, and there are possibly folks for whom this could be the best o

Have been seeing both the LA and SF Waymo operating zones increase steadily. Also seen Waymo's being driven manually outside of those ranges presumably for further development.

I love things like this. And it's impressive that you do surgery + travel + programming. I can hardly manage just the last one. For launches like this, the blocker for me signing up is seeing an example of the UI. Productivity tools, e

I feel similar to how the parent commenter feels, but describe it using different words. Therapists and psychiatrists will use similar language, dopamine, motivation, and executive function. How do you recommend one does this? > I strong

You're right, there's plenty to be grateful for, and even folks working for the same tech companies have it worse in non-U.S. offices than their U.S. counterparts.

Just because we have it great as tech workers and much of the rest of labor is absolutely fucked up in many ways, doesn't mean we should stop fighting to make our situations even better and use the privilege to advocate for those in wo

I build CRUD apps at BigCo and most of the LOC is pretty mindless but needs to be deployed yesterday. Copying over 100 different memberVariable = DATABASE_CONSTANT in different forms becomes much easier when copilot starts guessing the form

Including the US, but here bribes are legal, it's called lobbying!

Completely agree with you, not only are they for profit but they’ve gotten a lot of help from Uncle Sam along the way too!

I don’t think so. It has more to do with police brutality, unnecessary use of force, power tripping and ego, murdering of unarmed civilians sometimes children sometimes people in their own home, etc. than specific details about investigatio

Always surprised when people buy (as opposed to rescue) one of those health issue ridden pups which are constantly hobbling around and panting from just walking. Some people find it cute but it really is sad to see the little gremlin have a

Could go either way in my social group. Some folks hit ivy and then ended up at mediocre tech jobs anyway, others hit ivy and struggling to find work. Others went with the flow and still made it to the same mediocre tech jobs. And the ones

I rent a car around 6 times a year and I like trying out a different vehicle as often as I can. Adding car charging time into my short vacation in an unknown place, and being on the hook for returning it charged, etc. Might as well not deal
