That is infuriating. What right does the government have to come and inspect your house and invade your privacy over your child walking around outside?!? In her own neighborhood? Surely despite everyone’s political leanings we can all agree

I think the main problem is exactly as the article states - there no standard for how things connect to each other. If they could just make the connection standard everywhere, that would get rid of a ton of the silliness.

Serious question here - I swear I'm not trolling and I've been asking myself this same question...' Would you be fine with it if you were on the margin? I have this same attitude about inflation in the US and rising interest

I’m with you, but at the same time there is a giant red flag here. This hasn’t been covered by any major news source right or left. If there was any “there there” Fox News would run a special on this for a month straight. If you come with n

I think you’re over indexing on federal government. Here in the USA, our federal government is largely ground zero for a profoundly stupid culture war. It is grossly obese and rediculously wasteful. State government is a totally different a

But if you’re making a decision based on what will make people happy, isn’t that just politics? Your point is well made - this is going to be catastrophic for our country. No good can come if it. But it can’t be the position of the court to

This is the isolationist crowd if there ever was one. The number of introverts in tech and software engineering is skewing this particular conversation. I’ve worked from home for the last 11 years. And if I didn’t travel once a month, I wou

I want VR to be a thing. I want Ready Player One. I want the Star Trek Holodeck. But I also want a time machine. And honestly, that seems almost as likely as the metaverse ever being a "thing". The technology simply doesn't e

I didn't get that at all. Author takes on company legally, and with little effort wins most of what they are after (~10% difference). I had a situation almost identical to this where I had an AC that gave out and after a month with the

This is terrifying. Why am I not seeing coverage of this elsewhere? US media is full of stories about inflation cooling. If this is true, this should be the biggest story everywhere.

Fixing the problem would just be removing the RT / Share button. That’s it. Then we would all use it less because it wouldn’t be that interesting at all.

I respect the honest response. In my case, I'm not rich. I’m just trying to build up enough passive income to retire someday. There’s no pension for me. I can’t depend solely on my 401K. I’m just trying to be moderately responsible abo

Yeah - that’s not lost on me. I didn’t even pass the full cost on. I’m still down. Just trying to hedge my losses at an acceptable rate.

I’m a landlord and yes it is. My taxes doubled last year because of the stupid housing bubble and so we had to raise rent as well. Gotta make a profit here for this investment to be worthwhile.

This was my thought - opportunities are limited. So if you are talking about equality of outcome and one group is over-represented, you are talking about policies that hurt their group. The most obvious example being that you have to hurt A

The code here is clean, well written and honestly not that much more verbose than many of the framework ones. I also found it simple to understand. Would you need a “framework” when an app gets beyond TODO? I think you would need to start r

I think there is a lot of overreacting here to your blog post. That’s just the final piece. What rubbed me the wrong way was how your colleague castigated this person in the issue. I know people can be rough around the edges. I know they ca

We also held out on smart phones until our kids were 15 / 17 respectively. You held out even longer, so kudos for being able to do that. Our kids weren't mocked. They didn't feel left out. They didn't even complain becau

I both agree and disagree here. My qualification is 3 teenage boys. 1. My kids have slack in their schedule. No, they aren't going to Ivy League schools. That's OK. They will survive somehow. 2. This is certainly true, but it&#x27

This article is everything that is broken in media and it honestly pains me to see NYT printing this stuff. However, I am also a capitalist and I suppose I can’t blame NYT for doing what it has to do to earn a profit. It’s the incentives we

The CDC unilaterally ruled this country for the better part of 2 years. No checks. No balances. Now you could argue that the desperation of the situation calls for something more expedient than Democracy. But many people who supported the m

Working remotely is career limiting. Period. I’m saying that as a remote worker. I would not recommend that you get into full time remote work until you’ve decided you are OK with no significant career advancement.
