If one was a founder who wanted to have their startup succeed without crushing your teams mental/physical health, how would you do it? I understand the founder accepting it as a cost themselves, but when the company's existence de

This topic is important, but this article is weak. They cite a statement about doctor burnout, and a single study about employer statements about the topic. Most of the content is anecdotal, and in that sense they're just going for an

I think polar needs a heuristic evaluation, it takes too many clicks to do certain things. Also, I couldn't figure out how to export a card to anki. Exciting project though, I check back every few months.

When you're as busy as everyone is now, who has time? Can barely keep up with everything as it is. Luckily I'm already married, but it would be a problem otherwise.

Icecat has issues with so many sites because it wants you to block no free JavaScript. If you use it as intended, the internet isn't the same and is it even more private since there are fewer extensions? I like how brave bakes in the s

Some of the changes are alternative defaults however. That isn't something one can just merge upstream since there are busi ESS and product reasons for Mozilla to reject certain changes

Why wouldn't they just issue the order to two developers? That seems to trivially solve the difficulty since the second code reviews for the first

I opted for a recent webgl driven app to use no framework for our frontend code and it was lovely. It really makes me wonder why they get pushed so hard. There are no 'indications for use', just 'its HOT right now'.

my xps 13 has no problem going to sleep. It just wakes up slow and drunk sometimes. My "workaround" is to put it into 'performance mode' which kills the battery. Would those same logs help me debug my issue too?

I like my xps, but I would never brag about the keyboard or trackpad. I really miss my old macbook's kb/trackpad. Its just that I want to run linux, not macOS these days

“Goldman Sachs will never sell your data to third parties for marketing and advertising.” What if we wanted a more general promise to not sell our data at all? Or to not use it for anything at all except for processing transactions? The loo

Is there a win win business model that helps these homeless people while not being a charity? There are so many issues: drug addiction, mental health, a changing economy. It doesn't feel impossible though.

What do you use instead of phone numbers that average people would be able to use? Is email with an MFA option the best bet right now? In that case, what do email providers use - recovery email addresses? Faxing in photos of ID is just aski

In Canada, the term engineer is protected, but in the states it is specialization dependent. I went to school for software engineering and I have my ring (I'm not a full engineer for a few more years though). We focus a lot on testing

What I'm hearing is that, because they collected it and stored the passwords as part of their reckless attempt to log every action that every human makes online in order to manipulate them, its more excusable than if it was in a specif

In Canada, most of the health services / clinic websites I've been to over the last year use a mishmash of google scripts. I'm actually not certain whether things like google fonts gives them any data (is it just an IP and no

I used to like him. A few years ago though he said some things about Sam harris that were sensationalist and untrue. Its a little tedious to compare his assertions to actual positions or rebuttals, but it left me feeling pretty disappointed

I think I listened to one where they made fun of the nsas internal philosophy newsletter in a way that... made a good argument, but that was in bad taste. I didn't finish the episode

I recently switched to brave because I'm tired of having to trust 5-10 extension authors who may or may not sell their extension one day (adblock had to fork to ublock iirc because of something like that). Most of what my extensions do

Its embarrassing to have your sovereign government changing its policy for a social media company's data center. We need to create our own jobs, give smart people a good reason to stop moving to the states.
