My company requires us to use a "burner" phone and laptop when we travel internationally. I can helpfully print out the policy from the employee handbook and show it to the border guard. I'm not sure that's considered as

This is exactly what I did. It sends a text when it’s done. I forget some times even with the text, so I added repetitive alerts. That got annoying, so I added a door sensor to the washing machine to silence repetitive alerts if you open th

I am in the same position where the company I work for tends to pay near the top of the market. I account for this by trying to save as much as possible and not having a lifestyle that requires this top of the market salary. I’m under no il

My company's GPT4-API based "ChatGPT" replacement is working quickly and well, but ChatGPT and Claude are both down hard for me.

My company's internal ChatGPT using the GPT4 API is working OK, so it seems to be related to something specific to ChatGPT rather than the GPT4 service generally.

First, great job on the weight loss! Those are two major accomplishments, and you shouldn't get down on yourself for not being able to maintain something your body has evolved to avoid. If you did it before, you can do it again, but it

I’d be interested to see what the weight gain would be for people who lose weight through diet and exercise over time. My hunch is we’d see people gain significant weight back. I’ve seen this from colleagues who had weight loss surgery, los

For most Americans, 9/11 changed nothing. Hell, for most in NYC 9/11 changed very little in daily life after the initial attack.

I got an appointment within a week. The post office took the pictures and submitted everything for me. Couldn’t have been easier. Sounds like experience varies based on location. I did a digital renewal for my passport and it was fine also.

I recently renewed my global entry, and it was a piece of cake. I occasionally interact with the FCC because of my amateur radio license, and the FRS is super easy to use. I recently got passports for my kids, and that was super easy to do

> Tax policy is the government's strongest tool to change personal behavior, and if the system is simple and automated it doesn't do that at all. I'm not sure I agree. For example, I used to pay city wage tax to one munici

Indeed why is the warning necessary in the first place? I flipped away as soon as my eye saw “Palestine”. I specifically compartmentalize my consumption of political and world events as overexposure to stuff like that melts my brain. Maybe

Imagine if instead of roads we have some sort of low friction surface that also controls the direction of the vehicle. Some sort of metal rail. Then the vehicles could be larger, open to the public, and follow a set schedule!

You can fuck up A LOT and retain customers if you're honest and truly working in the customer's favor. The absolute second a customer picks up that you're in it to simply pick their pocket, there will be nothing left but a cu

I used to work for an enterprise software vendor that had LOTS of customers, and losing a single customer was painful but didn’t really affect that much. I’m now at a much smaller company, and I feel like it’s noticeable in the stock price
