   No need to worry about MetroMile, those dongles they distribute aren't reliable at all. Source: Me, after paying hundreds of dollars because the "signal was lost" for over a month, billed at the daily max rate, while their em

   25. Yes, I'm finding this very interesting -- I'll have to ask my eye doctor what they meant exactly next time I see them.

   Thank you, I seem to be severely misinformed. Redacting my original thoughts now. I have very poor vision and have been told by two different optomotrists that for me, personally, my vision will worsen as I strain my eyes. I never thought t

   Not at all. I was careful with my phrasing to indicate that but perhaps missed the main thought -- Perhaps a visual tool isn't the most effective nor pleasurable one for a severely visually impaired individual. Not because of any &quot

   Well, it's also a renter's problem. I don't possess these skills because I'm not allowed to practice or exercise them. Broken cabinet? Gotta call the landlord; If I tried fixing it myself I'd technically be breaking

   Was there something special about the move that ended the era? That in itself doesn't seem harmful to a legendary status.

   I wonder -- Could that render these requests invalid? They're not properly addressed to the entity after all. Not that I'd recommend trying that luck :)

    A "dark pattern" tricks people into doing something they normally wouldn't do. In this case, to board your flight you may verify your identity in one of two ways: 1. Present your passport 2. Use the Facial Recognition softwar

    Yeah, that's... Interesting. Is this truly something that simply has no repercussions for the lawyer?

    I interviewed with Outschool a few months ago, happy to see them here! They're a wonderful team. I've never seen a group of people with so much positive chemistry before; I've started asking more culture-centered questions in

    I dream of making something to this effect; A notebook full of your life's deepest works. I'm sure many others feel the same way too. I wish I could make more time.

    A few years ago I went deep into an effort to make my own 3D animation company, all in-house software and everything from the ground up as much as possible. I wanted to make the next Pixar, went far with the idea. Built a lot of working pro

    Good find! "Logically" they're pretty close, "emotionally" they can be different. If her makeup is "over the top" that's a bad thing, she's not dressed appropriately. If her makeup is "extra

    This is a funny word. I use it often and I'm finding "extra" difficult to explain. My best take is that you take the general expectation or main thing about a situation -- Then when something is "extra," the magnitu

    For me personally it's a context switching issue, not a time issue -- It's more of a mental inconvenience to have nothing to switch to. When someone grabs my attention to ask a question but leaves me idle for a moment, I'm le

    When I play guitar while reading sheet music or tabs, I often glaze over what's actually on the paper or on the screen but still "read" it faintly -- Take away the guide or make me look at my hands and I'm helplessly los

    I truly believe that's the only reason people aren't using Rust as a replacement for C / C++ immediately. The adoption isn't widespread, but I'm rather optimistic it will be. It's getting there.

    Genuinely, I think you're missing cultural context. Many of us share a general lighthearted humor about the state of the industry: Becoming a developer in some fields is less about engineering and more about "piecing things togeth
