Agreed. A multiple of the total compensation of the competitor is warranted.

You can also get hearts back without paying by doing what was previously known as 'practice', a random lesson of what you've previously learnt, by pressing the heart icon - on android, at least.

I very much doubt that to be true. As far as I've understood it, a far too large amount of land in the U.S is zoned to be single-family housing, effectively preventing this type of home to be built. That precludes any choice in the mat

55% of people worldwide live in cities and this number is growing. Consider whether you might be projecting your opinion onto everyone in this case.

That's correct. As an insurance company you buy reinsurance to insure yourself from catastrophic outcomes (i.e too many claims for your reserves to handle).

Seems like something that should be rectified - the entirety of american society should be redesigned to reduce the amount of driving required.

Pay transparency exists in Sweden? You mean like taxable income being part of public records?

Given the parts about her developing health problems, I'm smelling a mixture of Stockholm syndrome and sunk cost fallacy in play here. I feel bad for her. Hope it gets better.

If you evaluate it on the promise given when they adopted the tool (free for open source forever), then the dissatisfaction makes sense, I think. The promise has been broken.

The suggestion in the link was to sell investments that are underwater and replace them with similar assets, in order to remain invested. Not similar enough to be considered a wash sale, though. It's not strictly speaking incompatible

Modern smart phones are computers which can for some (read: most) meetings be good enough. The multitasking features in android are helpful here, with things like split-screen and picture-in-picture. If the meeting calls for it, I take it o

Given the well-known bias humans have against change - to be fair, there are good reason for this bias - I think it's important to give a design a good while of use before evaluating it against the predecessor, and only using objective

Great stuff, in particular the part about arriving at a local maximum is something I've observed a lot as well. I think I was introduced to the concept in some talk about AI, something which I never really pursued. Nevertheless, the co

My solution has been to take nearly every meeting possible outside while on walks. It helps me focus where I would otherwise not be able to focus, and acts as a good way to get some additional exercise throughout the day.

That was the type of thing I had. I was essentially forced to choose between taking care of my teeth and to be able to sleep at all. The choice was very easy, at the end of the day.

This take entirely ignores the invested human capital, which you lose entirely when you drive a worker to quit. Google have invested a lot into retaining their workers as well, so I'm sure that they know that as well.

Very interesting to me that gas is considered the 'high end'-option, I presume in the U.S? Where I live, the high end-option is to get an induction stove. I have one, and it's extremely pleasant to cook on. Granted, I've
