We can always count on someone on Hackernews to defend billion dollar companies in the face of workers abuse "they could always quit!". They clearly don't care if you criticize internally, there is a need to expose those bad

If they say they support it, it’s because they do support it. Problems are common in international bank transfer, that’s why their support team could have helped you. Your anecdata doesn’t prove that they don’t support this country, if it’s

The thing with climate is that you don't need to believe in the forecast. You could just look at the PAST results. Let's say just the last 10 years. And compare that to the last 200 years. May be that will teach you that something

Where you see dark pattern is in fact a limitation of most ecommerce platforms. Shopify, which powers millions of retailers website, doesn't offer this out of the box. You need the advanced plan ($$) and on top of that you need a speci

I prefer Swarm for that. First I decide what I want to check in (restaurants: yes, my condo building, not so much). Also, I prefer manually checkin in than having google track every single place I've been to in my life (i'm on iOS

Some yes. But when rent is one of your biggest one, the impact of stopping is quite high as you can't even cover this one.

Based on the current growth of cases, it looks like the situation in the US will be way worse than other western nations. Even when you adjust for population size.

That's because they took measures to stop it, same as South Korea, where the USA has not.

No, that's not how it works. It is a marginal tax bracket. If you get in the higher bracket, it's only the new money that gets taxed at the higher rate, not your full salary. It has absolutely nothing to do with your contribution

Yes, however because it spreads so easily (even in the period without symptoms!) it is likely to spread outside of China. Singapore has done well to contain it, but not all countries have great health and control systems and it will eventua

Yeah, I copy pasted a postal address into Waze a few months ago. Little did I know! Waze sent me to the wrong spot and ignored the Canadian convention. Thought this was an odd mistake but now that you say it, i'll avoid it entirely.
