Now show the data about the details around addiction. The homelessness industrial complex in Denver is out of control. It's throwing more and more money at problems, and that money just gets gobbled up like it's going out of styl

Thanks for the details. While I think it's ridiculous, a 0.3% fee for over $20k in deposited cash per month doesn't sound unreasonable for handling risk. Personally, I wouldn't be banking with either of those companies beca

Can you provide a citation on that one? I've never heard of such an absurd issue. The closest I can think of is when a bank tried to charge my son for using their coin counting machine because he didn't have an account there (he&

The Azure SQL Server offering is spectacular. I've been using their multi-region replication, and they offer point-in-time restores if something were to happen. Also, they have really good documentation for high-availability (e.g., pa

Personally, I like to look at the 2-star reviews to see if something is junk or not. 1-star is usually a reactionary rating with little/no thought. I don't trust most 1-star reviews, they're effectively saying "it could

That’s a bunch of nonsense. Being a serial entrepreneur that keeps trying to impact the world has opened more doors for me than anything else.

I have a tendency to comment code that isn’t optimal and will need to be refactored for performance at a later date. Not sure how many times I’ve been looking into a new performance issue as we grow, and come across one of my own comments.

Ok, prove it. If it’s so easy, then do it. Easy billion dollars for you.

I don’t know what kind of ‘rug pull’ you think this is. Microsoft has built a lot of good tools for cross platform (e.g., VS Code), and this seems like more of a culling the herd type of move. Visual Studio on Mac was mostly inherited and

Still 35 seconds off the record time for a production car. Far off of the hybrid Mercedes-AMG ONE (~6:30). The battery tech is still too heavy to be as fast and as nimble as ICE or hybrid (there's a balance there between torque for ac

Had to rent a car for pretty minimal, but not easy, commuting on a multi-week long business trip. Got stuck with a Mirage. The joke that developed was that it was the Mitsubishi Massage, because it shook constantly at any stoplight.

I would follow on with advice that if you tell them, “we’re leaving in 10 minutes” make sure that it happens in ten minutes. I’ve seen so many other parents set expectations, and then ignore them. It sets a bad precedent that is left open

As an M240 owner, it amazes me how much it weighs. It’s such a small car, and so lively and well handling. My ‘05 Mustang weighs less, and if it wasn’t for the handling changes I made to it (sway bars, coil-overs, control arms, and more), t

My comment had nothing to do about the money that Theranos raised, but about how the hype feels. Theranos was sooooo hyped on HN early on, and now we know how it turned out. This feels like practically a carbon copy of that hype.

I’m not the one failing to reconsider positions on it. If there is technology available to reduce expenses (and in the case of a strike… uncertainty and variability), a business would be shortsighted to not consider or invest in other optio

Apparently, my comment was completely lost on you. Here's an example that might make it more clear: Stagecoach drivers are mad that cars have been created, so they go on strike demanding more money. People interested in transportatio

Doesn't really matter in the whole scheme of things. The actors agree to the content, they are part and parcel.

There is so little, quality, original content being produced, it’s just constant sequels and franchise content based on older stories. Come up with some good new stories like they were doing in the late 90’s and early 00’s. Very few origina

That’s one hot take on the ruling. It was quite narrow, and has nothing to do with same-sex weddings, but is about compelled speech and free association.

Rough estimates, but at that depth, it’s around 450 atmospheres of pressure, or around 6,500 lbs per square inch. Pretty much instantaneous.
