So not only do we have to worry about websites we actually use being compromised, but we also have to worry about these sketchy third-party companies that have purchased our data being hacked.

I take 400mg before interviews when I'm job hunting. Unlike benzodiazepines, it doesn't seem to affect my problem solving ability at all. The effect is pretty mild compared to stronger anti-anxiety medication, but for me it seem

Yup. Anti-trust legislation has lost its teeth. Analyzing monopolies based on whether there is harm for the individual consumer is completely insufficient for determining whether a company is a monopoly. From "Amazon's Antitrust

Having a successful company that appeals to a broad range of users is related to having a diverse staff. Reddit has serious problems with blatant racism, sexism, and harassment on many of the larger subreddits. Until they start taking these

I don't think you need an app for this at all. What I've started doing is just printing a calendar and writing down whatever I've accomplished that day - sort of a reverse to-do list. Looking at whatever I did yesterday remin
