Joylessly losing as much as possible as efficiently as possible, and then leaving? What’s the healthy part? Or do you mean more that it’s less acutely harmful than enjoying the games while you lose?

> A spokesman for Ukie, the national games industry body, said that game companies had "already taken action" on the issue. Ah, well I’m sure it’s all just fine then.

Thanks for the additional information.

Sure, could be. My main point was just that it’s simpler to give everyone a week off together than come up with some rotation of coverage and make sure nobody falls behind.

I’m not sure, but I’d love to share an important story with you. Yesterday I was walking to an interview. There was a starving dog on the road. I stopped to feed him & missed the interview. The next day I got a call asking to come in to

Because it’s easier than telling people individually to take time off if they need it, because doing so often results in being more stressed because the work piled up and you missed important things when you were away.

I’m not an expert, but wouldn’t that be something like increasing supply to deal with a shortage of demand?

I think even relatively suburban areas will be able to support a coworking space or two, but it remains to be seen.

Maybe, but it’s also not an indentured servant program. Companies with better cultures are already actively recruiting people from the ones that want to force everyone back into the office full time as soon as possible, so they can chain th

Well, post lockdown you’ll have a lot more options including nice coworking spaces.

For sure. This was how we did it at GitLab, and it was the perfect balance.

I think once people experience flexible/remote work minus lockdown, there’s no going back. Until then everyone sort of misses the office in a vague sense, because they miss the social aspect. Some employers are desperate to prevent the

Apologies but I don’t really want to enter the endless debate either.

In the US at least I don’t believe the act has to be illegal.

He is saying that air flow is not more important than gearing, but if he were to raise it he’d end up in a never ending series of replies debating the details but missing the point.

It doesn’t have anything to do with airflow but does with whether or not cars are faster in reverse.

Have you written about your early days? I’d love to hear more. I’m at the very beginning of what I hope is a similar journey with my side project.

So far, anyway. The more you keep advancing ways to end the world, and make them cheaper and easier, the more risk you create that they fall in the hands of someone whose actual goal is to end the world rather than deterrence.

You can kind of do the same thing in English: Those fuckers fucked everything up and then promptly fucked off to fuck knows where.

What reason does applying a thin veneer of spin work, except for that people are mostly suckers for it?

Timber and brick, I’m unfortunately not an expert on home construction and can’t give a more interesting answer but maybe someone else around knows. A lot of homes and construction in the New England area is brick and I bet it will last qui

It doesn’t have to be. I live in a house in the Netherlands that was built in 1675, and this isn’t terribly unusual. It’s not a special old house or anything, just an old one in an old city center. I know it’s not super common in the US for

I’ve always been curious, is there a stated reason why HN doesn’t have the feature natively? Is it meant to avoid too fast back and forth comments or something?

As someone learning Ruby and Rails at the moment, and who likes to learn things from the fundamentals, is there a good book or blog series that takes you through it? Because I’m helping on a Rails app I’m learning a lot of magic, which is a

Really cool! I was lucky as a kid to have found a next-door computer store where I had basically unlimited access to old computer parts like these. It was the 90s so it was old MFM drives, XT boards, and so on, but I could get minix running

Sincere question: if I already have a vim setup with all the plugins I like, and I switch to evil mode so everything more or less works as I had it, what does emacs open the door to that I couldn’t do before? Org mode I imagine is one piece
