Even when the numbers aren't arbitrage it's appalling. Friends of mine will regularly order $8 of food for $20 delivered. And these companies still post massive losses after all that markup. Meanwhile Walmart abandoned their RFID

I extend this same thinking to homeschooling. I know many bright, well educated, home schooled individuals that save the US tax payers $200k to teach their kids themselves. I think the benefit of a stay-home parent is just too abstract or f

It's a strong case, but it still feels like a band-aid on the wound that is normalized double income households. My wife is a novelist. She chose to do that so she could have flexibility to stay home with children. It helps that she&#x

I asked this casually with /polly in slack the other day and was surprised that our engineering department was split 50/50. 50% thinking we should go fully remote and 50% being very adamant that they needed an office to work in th

We have an "internal systems" team at my current company to solve this problem. The product manager for the team knows everyone and keeps tabs on what's being done that could be automated. It's not used to replace people

How do I find a job that pays me top dollar independent of where I live? I'm a software engineer in a lower cost of living area of the US and I've considered moving to the bay area because wages stagnate here pretty early on in yo

I was mostly frustrated that standard history makes it difficult to impossible to see where you ran commands, depending on how long ago it was. This struck me as something that should have existed in shells a long time ago.

I don't have as much faith as you. I believe being "woke" is one of many things filling a void left behind by religion as more and more people find that void needing to be filled. I can't see that changing anytime soon.

I hope, one day, that we look back on the "woke" over-analysis of the last few years and say "That didn't age well."

It really is appalling. I'm on a top of the line laptop with Gigabit internet and I can't do anything on Facebook without waiting several seconds for loading. Usually I only open it to check notifications. I just refreshed and cou

I have that X1 Carbon and you're correct, it doesn't work. But I can't help but see that as a feature, no a bug. I can plug in my headphones with a mic when I need to, but having the hardware cover over the camera and no work

I would love use a Walmart grocery delivery service, but they use a 9 mile radius around their stores to qualify for delivery and I'm 10 miles away from the nearest store.

I don't think apps are allowed to do this on Android any more. You can designate that an app can only have location access while the app is open and in use.

If we paint privacy as simply black or white, sure. But if there exist shades of grey in privacy than Apple and Facebook are on vastly different sides of the spectrum.

Where was this? Sounds like the kind of things that are extremely variable depending on where you live. When I was working near minimum wage in California, companies would screw me like this. But when I moved to Utah, companies would give m

I think it's very natural to want to work. Women having the option to work is a wonderful thing, and we need to keep making progress towards equal opportunities and pay. I think a good amount of the problem then became, these new norma
