How exactly will SFO know how much the CEO's compensation is? And maybe companies can get rid of the CEO title and just call her Chairman of the Executive Council or something?

The car did not directly kill density, it enabled people to choose less density.

In my experience, most companies use ADP or Paychex or similar, they rarely roll their own solution. This is a non issue IMO.

I don't know, but my guess is the people that moved didn't like the policies of the state they left

Business has been moving to places like Austin for years. Las Vegas, Phoenix, Atlanta, Nashville, Orlando. The pace will accelerate now that it is even more acceptable to do so.

A majority of tech workers in California are from somewhere else, who came to California for the opportunity. They know what it's like back home. And yes, especially the 30-somethings with kids, they're leaving

Proposition 47 essentially decriminalized shoplifting. Californians literally voted for this petty crime wave. As a Florida resident, all I can say is, y'all have fun with that

It depends on your goal. I personally think PHP still wins for a solo developers in speed of feature creation. Think of the ratio of business value per development cost. Someone should find a way to objectively measure this. Then there&#x27

What exactly are these security "pros" doing? I just don't understand how the ransomware guys could destroy the snapshot backup copies of the database in my desk drawer. Why don't companies with this much data to protect

The fact that many think of deprecate and eol as synonymous does not make it so. There is a distinction and it's an important one. Developers should not just one day drop a feature out of the blue. The deprecation rolloff period is imp

What we need is a Ministry of Truth to decide what is real and what is misinformation.

This is great news, with detailed data and sources, but I will patiently watch as the HN community explains why it is not. Because it does not meet the narrative. Go for it guys.

If you are already seriously ill and contract COVID, it will often finish you off. The movie theater business was quite ill going into 2020 and then ...

With a car, you can go point to point. With a train, you have to arrange transportation to the station on both ends. Also, you can leave when you want, you don't have to time your travel with the train or plane schedule or worry about

Vogtle 1 and 2 were completed on 1987 and 1989. They will be online until 2047 and 2049. Vogtle 3 and 4 are currently under construction and will be completed in 2021.

The hub and spoke model was not new when the 380 launched. Engine and airframe manufacturers innovated and are now replacing the hub and spoke model with long haul point-to-point aircraft and routes. Sounds to me like a great innovation tha

I find it interesting there is no mention of the new Adobe Brackets here. I've been using Panic Coda for years and will be transitioning to either Panic Nova or to Brackets. Fully open source, written in HTML and Javascript. It was rel

Thank you for this. The reason for moving ssh to a different port is not to stop a determined hacker, it is to lower the risk from script kiddies. It lowers the risk from stupid stuff, and is worth doing.

The amount of power dedicated to Bitcoin mining dwarfs anything just about everything else we can do as coders. It's embarrassing really.

Am a big fan of the clean, simple UI of Coda. And the SCP built-in for web development. Would never consider VS Code or Atom. If I did make a change and not migrate to Nova, I would consider Brackets. It looks to be the most Coda-like. Any

Unless you're especially sloppy, it's virtually impossible to "pierce" the corporate veil. It almost never happens. However, if you have a business that could be sued (ie AirBNB rental), and you have a lot of personal as

"Major, years-long recessions"? In the lives of anyone 25 and under, there have been three recessions, the current 7-month recession, the 2008 recession which lasted 18-months, and the 2001 recession which lasted 8-months. Recessi
