I agree. I regret mentioning that as it doesn't really add anything to the main point I was making.

I would believe any numbers that were objectively presented with sound methodology. Using a single call center study as evidence that worker productivity increases just doesn't make sense. Most work isn't anything like working in

I'm not going to comment on the entire Apollo Technical source, but I think some of their claims are misleading. For instance, they say this: > A study by Standford of 16,000 workers over 9 months found that working from home increa

WFO isn't necessarily about personal preference. People who want everyone to WFO believe that WFO produces better outcomes for the company. That is different than someone who desires to work from an office or remotely out of personal p

I start by saying “Obviously this doesn’t hold true for everyone” which means I’m about to make a generalization, and generalizations, by the diverse nature of people, are unlikely to apply to every single person even if they hold true in a

Do they really do a credit check to open a hysa? I feel like no one checked mine above the normal KYC stuff.

Definitely not a rule. Im pretty sure my mom doesn’t even like who I’ve become as an adult and she definitely loved me a lot as a kid. Now that I have a kid of my own, and I understand the all encompassing love you feel for a child, I find

If people are an end to themselves, everyone would have as many kids as possible. Clearly some people believe people to be an end to themselves, but I doubt that opinion is held by the majority. My question about outcomes was specifically a

Hmm that’s interesting. I wonder if the two systems produce equal outcomes into adulthood.

I’ve always wondered how people with many kids can be emotionally available for all of them. How do you do it?

How much did you hang out with them once you were home though? With a < 12 year old, you spend a few hours in the morning + from like 5:30 pm until bedtime on weekdays, and then the entire weekend, with your kid. I lived at home for some

Obviously this doesn’t hold true for everyone, but your attachment to your kid has nothing to do with how you feel about kids in general.

I guess ESNI was deprecated and removed from Firefox in favor of ECH (just found that out now). CloudFlare supports ESNI, but not ECH. So that feels like a step backwards.

Your ISP would know the IP address, but not specifically that you were connecting to google.com.

The issue I’d like to solve is that, even with TLS, you still leak the SNI as part of the handshake. So your ISP can tell you’re connecting to google.com even if you’re using HTTPS.

You’d get a warning and be asked to proceed. Similar to how https everywhere works.

Firefox at least tries to restrict fingerprinting. For instance, you can force websites to require permissions to access canvas data.

One privacy feature I’d really like is kind of like HTTPS everywhere, except it’s TLS 1.3 w/ SNI encryption everywhere.

I disagree. Your IP can group you with at most a few million other people. The bits of entropy needed to identify you is very small if you know the IP.

A stablecoin acts as a pegged currency, which is useful because the exchange rate between non-stable crypto coins and USD is highly volatile. For instance, let's say I wanted to implement something akin to a bond on a blockchain. It wo

I don’t think you’ll need most of these things. My metric would be whether or not your app would continue to function without these things. Using this metric: Kill switch: may be required, but unlikely. Automated deploys: definitely not nec

That’s my observation too. Grocery chains need to be big enough to stock a wide variety of goods. But after a certain point, getting bigger makes the stores worse.

Do those advantages continue to scale last a certain point? I use a service called Fresh Direct for groceries. They serve nearly the entire NY metro area, so they’re pretty big, but not nearly as big as a national chain. The quality provide

What are the economies of scale in groceries? Seems like at a certain point there will be more overhead due to the management required for managing the entire chain of stores, and also lower quality of product due to only being able to sour

Bun has a philosophy that everything needs to be fast. Including things like CLI tools and process startup. Process startup being quick is important, especially in a severless environment. I understand your point, but it’d be nice to limit

But all else equal, wouldn’t you want the fastest option available? Also, it’s not just about raw qps. When a client connects to your app, you want them to receive data as quickly as possible so that they get the best user experience. That’
