So you're saying communism can't survive in the real world where foreign intelligence agencies exist?

It doesn't even really make sense as a concept. People resign from their jobs and then what? Maybe a small extra portion of the elderly retire early and a small portion become stay at home parents. The rest find new jobs.

That's ridiculous. If I'm writing a recipe, I don't put 50 disclaimers in it about how I know not everyone can afford chicken and how I am so privileged to have food. Why would the author need to clutter up their writing in

On the other hand, many of us do have such a luxury, especially on hackernews, but may be too afraid or too institutionalized to use it. It's nice to have people reminding us that we can make deliberate choices about our work life.

So what if the author is privileged? Unless you're living in a mud hut and subsistence farming, you can count yourself among the privileged as well. I guess you don't get to write anything on the internet because you might offen

"We need to move two more resources onto this project in order to meet our deadlines." I hear stuff like this all the time.

Aflatoxin content is regulated by the government. If we had similar regulations for processed meat, there would be no bacon.

Its true that the dose makes the poison and in the case of processed meats, the dose that people normally eat is enough to increase their risk of bowel and stomach cancer. Its telling that you are comparing it to alcohol, another substance

Processed meats like bacon are a known carcinogen according to the WHO. Unprocessed red meats are only a probable carcinogen.

The article suggests 3-4% inflation moving forward instead of 1-2%. Do you really need to hedge against that? I would say buy stock in companies with strong demand and pricing power.

Personally, I'm not going to endure a higher workload just because my teammates left. The company will just have to find and train replacements or deal with slower delivery and missed deadlines. The worst they can do is fire me and th

It does stand to reason that not driving to work would be more efficient than any form of transport, even a bicycle.

Right now, you can borrow a large amount of money (larger than pretty much any other loan type) at a low fixed interest rate and pay the bank back less than what they loaned you in inflation-adjusted terms. It's basically free money a

Government, government contractors, TBTF banks. Basically, anywhere productivity doesn't matter.

That's much worse than leetcode problems because it requires tons of work outside work . Most people, myself included, have a life and interests outside of the very narrow focus of their career, and don't want to spend 16 hours a

Also, its a lot easier to study leetcode problems than it is to study for domain-specific ones (since there are many different domains). I would expect having more domain-specific problems would limit you to a narrower range of jobs.

You're assuming they will actually eliminate it though rather than just pick something else to test.

Not really. You'll still have interviews, they'll just be more personality and resume-driven. Personally, I'll take writing FizzBuzz over and over again vs. "where do you see yourself in 5 years?" ("I don&#x27

Again I don't feel like that's pushing at the real root of the question. Maybe it's impossible to know and you just go round and round in circles, but what lets China create a stable central government and unified vision but

Russian language courses? Seriously? Completely ridiculous.

This seems to just push the question one level deeper. If African countries are poorly managed, why us that? What causes, for example, European countries to be managed better at scale than African countries?

They are a little more theoretical at this point but there is also compressed air and mechanical (concrete blocks lifted by a crane) storage as well.

Who knows. It seems like anything can be interpreted as a crime these days. Hopefully he's got good lawyers advising him.

People are unable to realize a script can be written because that's "not how teams work"? I'm very confused at what you're trying to say.

by jxidjhdhdhdhfhf 5y ago
Shouldn't whoever is tasked with finding such inefficiencies realize that a simple script could be written to replace the process of manually transferring files to and from cloud storage?

Call me when Netflix costs $100/month and has ads after every 2 minutes of content. I mean, its sad to see Netflix slowly getting worse, but don't forget what kind of hot garbage cable is. Keep in mind you can rotate streaming s

My wife and I will have our first child this year and my employer offers 4 months of paid parental leave, so I guess that is sort of a golden handcuff at this point.

I was never really a fan of working in general. Like why would I want to have to be at a certain place every day (even if that place is my home office) and have to work on my employers problems? And even if I enjoy programming to some
