At least on the ground, that's what I saw. Turbines work a lot like someone asking to use other types of rights on your property. Unfortunately, iirc most of the windfarms are owned by a few people, but people are getting paid for wind

They happen suddenly, so even if you saw a large crowd moving you might not know what you're looking at. Basically the crowd compacts because people are trying to move at all different directions on the exiting side edge so a massive s

Eh, look at PaulHoule's statement with some empathy. I got bullied by a teacher, probably more, starting in fourth grade. I've written about it on this website. It can develop authority issues, trust issues, or both. It's a l

I go to a pretty large festival. My partner and I talk about a plan to exit for every set we go to and we generally go to the same location in each crowd.

Often people think something is a wheel when it is rather more of a pulley. My experience has taught me to avoid this saying because the real questions are: - Do I gain anything valuable (including knowledge) by doing this myself - do we ha

Zelle is absolutely bad, imo. It's like an incomplete Paypal but with a $3.5k transaction limit.

I once got a call from my mother, who lives in a different state, that someone was calling her looking for me. They'd called a number of times by this point. I returned the call and it turned out to be a recruiter who I had not respond

"Leadership" usually means executives and those folks live in a different world of comp than Engineers and Project Managers, maybe even Product - but I know that bit isn't always truthy.

That's actually a really good idea. Reuse an already common tool to reinforce what you want. If you stay here longer than your 4 year cliff we'll refresh you at 1.5x the last schedule. That's about what a company would end up

This is pretty good insight. Now I'm wondering what public data sources show overturned bills as well as all sponsors of a bill. I think Congress' website tracks the latter, but the former might be difficult to obtain.

From my perspective this is the way things used to work, then we had the pay equality movement which was largely misinterpreted by corporations to mean "Same title == same pay". The problem is that being a Junior on Team A may hav

Like with all things I'd keep the numbers you see from others in context. A lot of companies do a thing I like to call "geopay". In its most cynical view, it subsidizes home prices in a given area, which adds to the employees

Having any kind of dominant political culture at a company probably makes things pretty miserable on the whole so I empathize. I did look into what you said about politics (as opposed to culture) and you are right that a majority of tech

Texas wants tech to replace some of its dependence on agriculture and oil. Comparing the two scenes seems wrong. Early on Silicon Valley siphoned talent out of Silicon Hill and adjacent businesses. It's going to take them a while to si
