I think this is a similar situation where business leaders and managers get away from any meaningful repercussions just like in the '08 negligence of regulators and bankers, or with Grenfell tower where the cladding vendor managers fak

You can do this with Linux easily as long as your bios allows you to boot from USB. Just put /boot on the USB and everything else on the NVMe (via PCI Express to NVMe card). This trick has allowed me to save several old PCs and use t

This situation is complicated and I've noticed most of the top posters saying they would fire the employee immediately. However, the behaviour expectations weren't communicated properly post acquisition and it's really the c

Do you think you could shift back into that "10x more confident self" consciously without the Ayahuasca?

America is really atrocious when it comes to data protection accountability. I wonder if Cerebral customers will have to sue in a class action to get any legal recourse.

Imho the UK post Brexit lacks political leadership that knows how to manoeuvre the competing political factions within the Conservative party and balance the short-term and long-term economic pressures it faces. Trump was the UK's best

I use GPT3 to work out bodies of knowledge in specialist areas I’m interested in and then get it to suggest books and MOOCs that cover the topics.

I think one of the hard truths is that corporate managers and executives are often disconnected from the decisions they are making and the negative impacts of those decisions are pushed on to employees. There aren't many solutions to t

The question is, at what cost, and with what legitimacy? Too often despots and their cronies get countries into economic trouble, countries that have been taken advantaged by Western interests for hundreds of years. When the country collaps

What's for you won't pass you. Maybe you just needed that message, at that time, in that way. That said, I'm glad you're able to identify and parse out the less positive aspects of his perspective. If you're lookin

Thank you for the comment. The word that struck me most in your reply was "absurd". It's a very accurate description. I had always thought the word "horror" was a good label, and "cosmic horror" was a g

Post-Covid, supply chains will be moved back to North America as Governments and companies adapt to the changing geopolitical climate that the demographic collapse will create. I think some of the industrial plant will locate in the US, bu

I completely agree with the sentiment. If you're an entrepreneur I think you've got a responsibility to your employees who are counting on their paycheck to not screw up. I think where it goes wrong is with entrepreneurs who: a)

Be very careful with who you shack up with. Don't settle for partners that mess you around or manipulate you. Make sure you take precautions. The last thing you want is to have a baby with someone who isn't a good person.

I completely agree. In the past I dropped a ton of money on gaming rig hardware that aged like milk. With a console you get the advantage of exclusives, majority of PC game releases, and a longer upgrade cycle versus a gaming rig. If you

Anyone here looking to use this in IoT projects, can you please say what you're looking at doing, and why you'd use this versus a Raspberry Pi?

Gimp and Inkscape are incredible PhotoShop and Illustrator alternatives. I'll have to check out Hugin, thanks for the tip!

RIP Figma, I've been trying to avoid Adobe products since they charge the earth for their products and free open source options are solid alternatives. I'm expecting Adobe to eventually price gouge us to the point where we are fo

The issue isn't that we as a race can reach 100% renewable energy, it's at what cost? Right now displacing fossil fuels comes at such an enormous financial cost it's an all of humanity thing or none (or very little) of human

I'm not sure I see the link between understanding exponential growth and Shadow Stats? Shadow Stats holds the CPI definition constant over the time period, whereas Uncle Sam jukes the CPI however way he's feeling for "reason

Thank you for explaining my recent videogame behaviour. I think the last AAAs I played through was Ghost of Tsushima and the Demon Souls remake. I feel less inclined to play AAAs and I find myself gravitating to Gris, Sable, Untitled Goos

Sorry for your investment woes. I think part of the problem is established dogma (and regulatory regime) that believes bonds offer diversification from stocks. However this seems to have broken down post 2008, as they have become increasin

So you used CPI as your inflation measure? I personally don't think CPI or RPI is a good inflation yardstick, because the calculations change over time. For consistency I would suggest you try Shadow Stats or the year on year growth

I think you got to discount points of view from the perspective of how valuable their perspective is to your goal. The problem with social media and open forums is that it’s not obvious and takes time to figure out who’s who. Having said th

I thought this might break distance selling rules in the UK but it seems like you can "contract out" for streaming and download products as long as you get the customer to accept a no refund policy prior to purchase. Source: http
