Even remote companies can only consider so many applicants. In our last three job searches that number started at 100 or so, was whittled down using resumes to 40 or so who were whittled down to a dozen or so by tech screens and finally we

If one needs to read the room or care about facial expressions in one's meetings rather than believing and trusting one's coworkers' actual responses, one is a shitty manager / executive. The video part of remote meeting

Better optimize then for haircuts. How many haircuts can we trade for one death? Haircuts are so much more important that we should accept some number of deaths so that people can get their haircuts. What's this number to you? Callousn

The entire article talks about plenty of other risks than death. To try to pretend like death is the only risk is frankly stupid and harmful. Getting any of the conditions this article talks about would have life-changing repercussions and

One that demonstrates that serotonin/dopamine is actually the cause of depression and that taking drugs affects those neurotransmitters and relieves depression. If we're going to say to someone that you are depressed because of a

That's a far cry from demonstrating that specific neurotransmitter imbalances are the cause of depression.

That's one way to give the middle finger to your employees, lower morale, and have them underperform. Businesses do stupid things like this all the time, against their own interests just to save a little money. Another example is not g

Until the state starts preempting these idiotic local laws and push builders to build, nothing will change. They have the power. Do they have the votes?

So you say but provide no proof. Also, that's very different than saying it's caused by a lack of/too much serotonin, dopamine, or some other neurotransmitter or receptors without a shred of proof, as the parent claims. The r

Proof that "Some brains are neurologically misconfigured and prone to chemical depletion or lack receptors for it (ex: serotonin or dopamine)" and that this is the cause of depression.

The author just doesn't understand the difference between frameworks and libraries. A function is not a framework. Neither is a small single purpose library. None of this applies to actual frameworks unless one's working alone. Ad

For sure. The first talk therapist I went to was right after it father died. The receptionist warned me he was very old, which I did not find to be a problem in and of itself. I don't know if that is the reason he told me basically tha

I agree that it's a risk, a very real one. That's why choosing your words carefully is paramount and not talking about certain things or downplaying them essential. I trust my therapist only up to the point where that trust might

Amazon's current solution also includes shutting down your account, even if it's prime, and telling you to fuck off because you returned too many of its fake or garbage products.

Sure it is. There are perfectly humane ways to kill an animal quickly with respect. My grandparents and uncles used to do it all the time. What's inhumane is the mass factory farming way of slaughtering. Killing animals is as old as hu

The US isn't testing enough for that conclusion to be drawn from cases per day. Looking at deaths per day, or per week, the US is number one. Perceptions are correct.

So no downsides to dropping Facebook permanently. Being disconnected from current events is definitely an upside. Not unlike many addictive drugs, really. The benefits long term are great too.

At the same time, guidelines say not to share food. So either that guideline is superfluous for covid, or the government just wants people to keep ordering takeout despite it being dangerous. Given their record so far, I won't be order
