Before writing about your bulletproof technical solution to this problem, think about all of your older relatives on facebook. Is the solution something they'll be able to handle?

Kids are too expensive to raise, housing in major cities with jobs are unaffordable, and women are having a hard time continuing their career after giving birth. It really comes down to these three problems. The government is aware and maki

I tried replacing a broken speaker on my old Macbook Pro. I followed a very detailed guide from ifixit and it involved removing the motherboard, disconnecting 7 different ribbon cables, and keeping track of the exact location of 30 differen

Going into academia is usually not the best way to maximize your financial earning potential. So usually people who go into academia value pursuit of knowledge over money. Academics tend to raise children with those values.

Pretty much every comment on this thread comparing Ferraris to Lamborghinis is overgeneralized and outdated. It really just depends on the era and the specific models you're comparing. Also the founders' original philosophies have

Ferrari and Lamborghini each sell about 10k cars a year. What's more impressive is Pagani and Koenigsegg each only made about 200 cars ever.

I sort of want a Hacker News/Reddit style tool for work with upvotes and nested threads. Slack is good for realtime discussions but it's really hard to find a conversation from last week or a popular discussion that I should read.

While Samsung's culture could be considered toxic, blaming their recent issues on culture would need more backing. Samsung has seen good growth and has been one of the top semiconductor companies for the past decade. It's not like

I really like this post. As a startup founder, it's easy to get distracted by advices from armchair startup experts. To use a tree/forest analogy, you'll often get suggestions like "why don't you use some fertilizer

Price of a Roku, Chomecast, etc are pretty trivial compared to a price of a TV. Just get one of those and don't bother with your TVs "smart" features. Recommending against a certain brand because their smart TV UX is bad does

For startups the reasons are more often: * The benefit X will bring in the foreseeable future does not out weight the cost of switching. * We have limited engineering resources and they're better spent working on Y.

I think Golden Gate Bridge in 4 years is more impressive given that it was nearly 90 years ago. We didn't even have computers back then. However, we could compare it to the Bay Bridge's Eastern span replacement, which took 11 year

I'd say the California weather tax is really worth it (for me). Climate plays a huge role in quality of life but it rarely comes up when people are comparing the next "tech hub" to move to.

>"We decided to help mining and gaming community," I don't understand how this demand helps the gaming community. Wouldn't this drive up the crypto-motivated demand for GPUs even more and hurt the gaming community?

Just like how California's auto market is too big for auto manufacturers to give up on, despite the strict environmental laws, NYC talent pool may be too big for most companies to pass on.

Gifting is much more than just a monetary value transfer from one person to another (unless you're a soulless tax lawyer) and so many people here are forgetting that. I see gift cards to be somewhere between a thoughtful physical gift

If you are looking for an indoor rowing machine, I highly recommend a Concept 2, especially if you can find a used one locally. It may seem expensive at first but if you decide you don't like it, you'll easily sell it for the pric

I doubt it's for crypto though. Running two cheaper 300W GPUs will be more cost effective. Also serious miners already moved on to ASIC anyways.

Assuming you can install two GPUs using 600W, that's basically running a hair dryer in your desktop since most of the energy is converted to heat.

Whether it's Apple's latest M1 chip made by TSMC or Nvidia's latest GPU made by Samsung, it's needs to be manufactured using ASML's EUVs. The crazy part is, ASML was only able to ship 31 EUVs in 2020 and there was o
