Simple - for things I care about - a GUI and integrating with things like printers, docs, and I am generally in the apple ecosystem - Linux is not worth my time to manage for day to day use on a laptop. I'm also well familiar with how

Due to that whole lack of authentication I. The phone system, we get lots of spoofed numbers here in the US. I ignore most unknown calls but manage to answer maybe one a month that is an obvious foreign (usually Indian sounding) call cente

Water for one. Multiple towns in both northern and southern CA had drought / water issues. Mendocino in the north, multiple places in the south.

Doesn’t answer the question about infrastructure which California is well known to be lacking.

Where does one build 3.5 million houses? The housing needs to be where jobs / etc, are. It should also be where resources are. A good deal of the state has water issues regularly; additional part of the state can't keep the pow

Distance is a funny thing. I've done multi-day hundreds of mile charity rides for fun. I've trained and helped train people who would not think of doing such to do so. I've also done 20+ mile mountain bike rides on a singl

There is nothing requiring the password to be “weak”. It can be a strong password generated with a random number/strong password generator. Sharing a string of characters or a “weak phrase” is no different if reading it to the person

It is possible that "infrastructure" may become feasible in smaller countries like the UK. However, it is far from feasible in large countries like the US. Heck, even here in California, we are under the same future bans of ICE,

BBSs helped setup social connections in the SF East Bay that resulted in in person social activities that ran, in some form, continuously for 20+ years. The systems used were based on WWIV. Another was a multi-line system that included gam

One of the biggest issues with large companies is - there could be a lot of documentation- but can you find it. A lot comes from tribal knowledge/who to talk to/etc.

Most Pothos are free to propagate. Things from Costa farms and some other places are things to look out for. IP on plants is an interesting thing. One popular plant in the recent past - Raven ZZs - was IP protected.

It's a good set of sub-stories in an established genre. I don't know accuracy, but it's great visuals and decent story.

I ended up giving my airpod pros to my partner. I found both the connectivity and sound quality (as well as noise canceling) much better on my Sony WF-1000MX4s. edit: isolation replaced with canceling

Holy heck, the diving into Silmarillion (sp?) intentions. Amazon has a series. It’s not true to subject matter. It’s been entertaining (not at the level Amazon paid). Just like the movies, liberties aren’t taken.

Good story. Being a good human is important. Helping someone without being involved in (aside from sustaining them) is noble as well. Not every problem in this world needs a solution, those seeking will or will not find their solution. If

There is ageism for sure. That said, I've probably isolated myself from a lot of it because if a company boasts (as often happens at "work at a startup", etc type events) "we work hard, we play hard", "we are

I’ll check the site out when on non-mobile. But what sort of internet connectivity?

I’d add a browser extension that reroutes from or preloads content from sights that load as you scroll like the link for this does.

Personally, I think most of the "western world" has a more healthy idea of PTO than the US. Some companies here are better than the norm, but a lot are not really great.

True, but surviving that first year. Also - vacation and tenure in industry is often disconnected. I have and know others that have negotiated time off as a benefit when at small companies. I think with Amazon, there is the added element
