That’s “sweet” whey. Acid whey from eg Greek yogurt is thrown out as no one has found a profitable channel for it yet. Edit: made my own Greek yogurt a couple of times, tried to sneak it into my kids smoothies, use it to soak beans, mix it

the tender offer from SoftBank is officially off the table as of yesterday. Awkward now it seems Neumann will continue to own a huge chunk of the company from the sidelines.

I've had some short positions (different companies) to offset my own RSU market risk since I started my job a year ago. Until the last few weeks I avoided looking. Now I'll avoid checking my company's stock for a while and lo

Ice keeps things cold, and someone has to keep bringing new blocks of it to your icebox somehow. Reviews are free data, and you have to know how to navigate them. I don't see the difference.

I find it's great for diving into refactoring projects that I've been putting off. I like to do that stoned because it's usually not that hard, just tedious moving files around and organizing things. Same way my wife reorgani

DuckDuckGo is a for profit company. There are no guarantees it will not seek more profits at a later date. See: Google. That being said, competition that hurts Google’s bottom line would likely result in better behavior. Ddg has a long way

This is exactly how things are currently done (DMCA, “sex work” search results), and it leads to more people being outraged by big tech companies acting as judge jury and executioner.

I also have data on this. I previously worked for a marketplace company that had to vet freelance writers. The application process was partially automated, with multiple human reviewers that provided detailed scoring on the applicant’s perf

This is a tried and true practice in dating, and it translates well to hiring, which is basically the same thing. Most people, ESPECIALLY people who ask you for feedback, do not want feedback. They want to get in a fight with you. Edit: I d

I have had this issue as well with take home projects. Most companies are looking for someone who will follow KISS, so demonstrating ability to do complex things like your render queue is not at all appreciated. They want to see that you ca

I often walk in to codebases that are quite unified, but that unification happened too soon, resulting in a system that locks programmers into working at far too low level of abstraction. Trying to change that is nearly impossible because d

Due process: a lot of this comes from regulation targeted at large tech cos. Eg my illegal site could be criminally prosecuted and shut down with a court order but the courts are too busy so they just hold the provider criminally liable ins

Option 3 meaning all countries should be able to project nuclear power on all other countries as part of the definition of sovereignty? It’s kind of a cool thought. The current nation state map seems arbitrary for such gravitas.

Blocks means puts a page of ads first. If I don’t pay to “defend my brand”, my competitors show up first in a search for my trademarked brand name. If I do pay, my registered users will regularly ship money from me to google just by being l

Em3ev and Luna are the name brands if you’re buying it with a battery (nice since it will be wired up for you). Chargers are a pain since you want an 80-20 charge cycle. The name brands have options for this and you know what battery cells

I ebike 20 miles for work every day and live it. I don’t use my ebike for small errands because it’s too easy to just rip expensive stuff off of it while locked up. Also, the picture shows a rider with no helmet which is insane. I wear a mo
