I don't know how the GP poster is doing it, because it is practically impossible to be the primary caregiver of an infant or toddler, and be able to work at the same time. Don't fool yourself into thinking you will somehow manage,

Aren't they building the Coastal Highway at a cost of $47B that will include a few tunnels and a few more bridges?

As it is now, sometimes ice needs to be scraped off the windshield before you can drive. It may be the same with the cars external sensors.

This is a totally fair point. But wouldn't it make more sense to either (a) continue to pay the hosting costs to stay known as the 'one true place' to find online videos, or (b) allow the Blender Foundation to pay to host the

I'm the same. I feel the need to get "high" pretty much once or twice a week. I much prefer to smoke weed, and only drink if I can't smoke. Luckily for me I like to use a vaporizer so I never have more than can fit into

Because you don't set the values of the company, you just align your team to the goals of your larger organization / company.

As a parent of a two year-old, one thing I will not allow (for as long as possible) is unrestricted YouTube. I've seen my nieces watch unboxing videos and videos of kids acting like babies. It seems addictive and utterly devoid of any

I like to have the "perfect" setup. Of course, that definition is relative and ever-changing. In reality, I end up spending an insane amount of time adjusting, switching to different software, or trying to get the last 1% of a fea

Couldn't you have negotiated that in your offer e.g. I'll take the 140k bonus but my phone is off from 6pm to 8am, only covering night shift on certain days etc. If they say no that's OK, but if they say yes, great.

Also living in Switzerland. I have to comment that ~200K is not "normal" salary here either. To be fair, most people also don't have a nanny for their kids (or more than 1 as you do), and do not pay for private school. Averag

Experts are right to be skeptical that it's possible with current gen tech. As usual, Musk is probably extrapolating charge speeds to when the truck will be finally delivered, which is in what, 2020?

The part about scrolling through your feed for 30 seconds, realising it's all crap and exiting is true. I unhooked simply because the content isn't interesting.

I believe they did, but they miniaturized it and are using it for their face recognition technology in the iPhone X to unlock the phone.

What about work experience in popular western countries in Europe? I've been living (and working) abroad for the last 10 years but might come home sooner or later.

Out of curiosity, what apps did you build for your wife or kids? To solve what problems?

Also, resale values are typically very good. Even years after the initial purchase you can recoup much, much more than a Dell or Lenovo.

I assumed it was just a generational term like 'Generation X' or 'Millennial'.

At the moment Apple Pay have only two supporting banks: Swiss bankers and Corner. Now that Twint and Paymit are merging, they have most major banks and shops (Credit Suisse, Postfinance, Raiffeisen, UBS, ZKB, Migros, Coop, Swisscom) behind

This sounds like the same thing, phrased differently. According to the grandparent, categorising something new into the 'responsible' and 'irresponsible' buckets is hard and not something that generally gets better with

Not to mention the grandparent suggested showing them his GitHub profile and committing fixes to their open source repos. Uhh, yeah, I'd hire you too! Are we forgetting that most developers don't have GitHub profiles or aren'

If I am looking for a surgeon for an operation, it's enough for me to know that he was trained at a good school and has enough experience -- for that a bio online is already decent. I trust his education, after all the field of medicin

Have any of those companies announced a release date for any of their products though? As far as I am aware, the rift is still (or will be) the first consumer accessible VR product.

Watches that run on body heat? If you're referring to mechanical watches, I think they use motion to wind a torsion spring to store energy.

I'm also from Perth, but I don't see urban decay "all over the city". The worst (and only) place I probably had the feeling of some urban decay was Ellenbrook.

Personally, prepaid data is what I would really love. I am often back in Australia for one month every one to two years, and an iPhone without data is such a useless device. A beautiful, shiny black mini computer in which all the useful fun

I disagree. I wandered into the comments just to find out what would happen, or what this means to, the market and Argentinians in general.

The lines will blur anyway. A Microsoft Surface combined with a TypeCover (assuming it works well), could be used as both a tablet and a laptop at different times. Does it then contribute to PC sales or tablet sales?

The article paints a different picture anyway. Greeks apparently have the most worked hours, while Germans have the second-fewest worked hours. Greece is 7th _least_ productive and Germany is 7th _most_ productive. When Germans come in to w

I find it pretty funny that _after_ you graduated (and according to the hardware you had at the time) you decided to completely change careers :)
