One thing that stood out to me was the aspect of having a strong culture of writing. Could anyone talk about how Stripe's culture of writing works a bit more? How does this manifest in things like product decisions/direction, sett

Source? I think you are incorrect about Pfizer. Given it is mRNA based, to the best of my knowledge it hasn’t been linked to blood clots in any way.

It's simply not true. The whole business model of Spotify is that of any other internet business, selling a zero-marginal-cost good for a subscription fee. It would be more complicated to implement a per-user breakdown, and maybe sligh

I agree and I think this is really the key demand that they should have organized around. Splitting up the revenues based on what you actually listen to is really how things should work from a fairness perspective to artists. It also is lik

Agreed. Kosher salt is mainly not flaky, it just has slightly larger granules than table salt. I think the poster above might be conflating some of the flakier salts you can get which might also be kosher with standard kosher salt.

I think the main reason people go for kosher salt in recipes, cooking, and even baking is that it doesn’t taste of iodine. Table salt with iodine tastes slightly metallic, which will basically make your food taste worse. I’m an amateur cool

This was very cool, I'd be curious to hear more about the logistics of logging this. I'm curious how they practically logged all of this and made sure not to drop time across different activities, busy days, etc. I feel like if I

I really agree with this. In areas you are an expert in you quickly learn that reddit is the land of the enthusiast or the expert beginner across all fields. It feels like a lot of people on there internalize the mainstream advice, but not

I wrote a bit about Orleans here (and also Akka if you scroll up a bit): http://dist-prog-book.com/chapter/3/message-passing.html#orl... At the end of the day, I think Orleans and Akka are conceptually different t

This is cool, a nice beginner or general convenience feature might be the ability to highlight some basic scales like major/minor. This would probably get people off the ground writing music that sounds good much quicker.

WeChat is actively censored for both Chinese-registered and non-China-registered accounts, thus implying that communication through the platform is monitored, reviewed, etc. It isn't a far leap to say those capabilities are usable for

Hey thanks for the reply. I don’t really understand this answer to be honest. How do you compare fairly between two or more candidates applying for the same position with this method? If you’re judging all applicants on the “would you want

How do you maintain consistency across candidates with this approach? One of the struggles I've seen with interviewing is making sure that candidates are judged on a fair and consistent scale across interviews, candidates, interviewers

Heh, I agree! I'd love to try something like that if it exists.

Which of those images look real to you? To me, pretty much all of them look strictly like rendered images or have some aspect of them which gives away the fact that they are rendered.

I never knew this. How can someone determine how long their sleep cycle is? I’d love to figure out how long mine is.

Out of curiosity, do you have a source for these numbers? It's interesting to hear that one dairy cow's lifespan effectively covers enough milk for two average human lifespans worth of consumption.

Not entirely sure if you're talking about the sound or the image to go along with it, but at least for the sound I think you could create this easily in any sort of DAW with a synth (all of which will include a basic sine wave) + autom

Sure, I agree everything has nuance and context to it. I was really just stating the rationale I've seen given for avoiding those words rather than offering my opinion. That being said, given your example I'd ask you to consider t

What are you thoughts on tildes? In my experience the community there is reasonable and definitely not filled with nazis.

Could you elaborate on a problem that illustrates this property of Clojure? This sounds awesome, but I have a hard time understanding what you're getting at without knowledge of Clojure.

Can you talk a little more about the types of roles you're interviewing for and what your typical answer looks like? I think that would be useful to provide more context for any answer.

I watched this video and I think it presents a skewed perspective on things to lead you towards a certain outcome. I think it's worth questioning the underlying assumption throughout that video, which is that guns need to be involved i

I think the best/most common example of this is the Jim Crow laws implemented shortly after the civil war: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Crow_laws That Wikipedia article has a lot of detail in it that explains
