The idea that taking away health coverage (during a pandemic even!!!) and doing everything possible to let the most amount of people die in a pandemic is comparable to political correctness or sending people extra unemployment so they don&#

I think it's safe to assume that your coworker may have these beliefs. It's even highly likely since these are the core beliefs of the person and platform they voted for. Should you wonder about such things? Absolutely. I've

If the salary is already negotiated, it'd be extremely demoralizing for the company to force the employee to take less. A company that's willing to pay less because one lives somewhere else after one has proven oneself is a compan

Why not work on your own project three days of the week and take the 5th one off (or work on it 4 days)? You're making serious money for a super easy job. You'd have to be insane to quit, especially if you're working from hom

I too am surprised at people who continue to eat take out. I don't trust restaurant workers to stay home when not sick and take precautions with the food to make sure it's not contaminated. It's hard enough dealing with food

They could probably do a bit better, but coming from mbpro land, 5 hours seems to be standard. It's what my old 2013 and my current 2019 mbpro (with 100wh battery) lasts with light use. Nowhere near close to the 11 hours Apple touts an

What's the value of an online course? The market says $0. There are plenty of free, online courses. What is the value of an online degree? Well that depends who is awarding it, but that value is unrelated to the value of courses offere

I wonder if these vpn providers can be prosecuted under the cfaa for not following their own tos. It would stand to reason that if users can be prosecuted thus, the provider can be too. Or no one can be.

GPT-3 is a better writer, grammatically, than the author, but my first reaction to the article was that it's nonsense. Glad to see that it is indeed nonsense. Grammatically pleasing nonsense but nonsense nevertheless. Mildly interestin

I don't think there is any chance in hell that the US adopts and of the mechanisms described in the article, but the one thing we could adopt is a culture that discusses politics. Of course our politics are such shit when no one discus

You should check out vue. You don't need npm. Just one js file. There are many css fw that integrate with it as well as ui component libraries. The learning curve is small, almost non-existent if you've done anything with angular.

Thanks for showing us an example of exactly the kind of stupidity the parent is talking about. The government is well within its rights to require shelter in place. If you don't like it, get your case heard by the Supreme Court and win

Meanwhile multiple N95 production lines are sitting dormant in Texas and elsewhere. You're confusing not being willing to make masks with having trouble getting enough. No, we have no trouble getting enough. We have no willingness to m

Why let innocence get in the way of chasing people down? That's the argument police unions have been making for years. Whenever society wants to improve and decriminalize something, it can't because the fucking cops want to have e

Lots of early votes didn't count because they were cast for politicians who dropped out. Actually, no votes other than Biden's counted since Bernie dropped out before the race ended as well. Yes, the odds were stacked against him

What I see is most cops not wearing masks. So from the get go they are out to kill people. That says more about their mindset than anything could and proves that it's not just one bad apple but the entire profession that's out to

The unemployment figures were conveniently off by a few million last month too. Clearly they are being manipulated to prop up the stock market. It's so obvious.
