I completely agree, that is totally a nasty risk vector! Fortunately I am a Boeing shareholder at $139.xx per share, so any measure to cut costs and reduce bureaucracy is welcome in my book. What a world!

Objectively, this is true. Whether the intent is to actually have a conference or not, the real outcome is that employees are A) in a different location and B) the trip is written off as an expense. Objectively. It is impossible to say th

It would be very unfair for Boeing to offer 1 week per year served if you leave voluntarily, and then revoke that payment if they forcibly lay you off. At $OLD_TECH_CORPORATION_MAKING_DATABASES, we received one week per year served after be

I am for a UBI. I think it should replace bureaucracy generated by all these alphabet agencies. Funding sources can all be explored. If we dont do this, surely robots will replace most jobs.

I was typing out a really long response to you with many if...then statements, but then I realized there are too many powerful agencies and institutions that don't want to give up their ability to tax/spend. Medicaid/Medicare

"A hypothesis that if one touches their face, they are more likely to smell themselves as well" is an infinitely clearer title, in my opinion. If your goal is for only 5 people to understand you and think you are cool, then it&#x2

I am a native English speaker who graduated with a 3.8 GPA in History from a world Top 30 university. I still had to use a dictionary to understand what "subserves" means in this context. Our language is so hilariously broken with

Only do something for 1 minute, focusing as hard as you can. Then take a break. Then try for 2 minutes. Then take a break. Repeat until you can focus for a long time :)

With regard to 2), if that's indeed how VC works, then YC just needs to fund every company. There's no need to do vetting if you are guaranteed to fund the next FB and the earnings will outweigh all operational expenditure on non-

I completely agree. But I am curious as to why the economy only allows a certain number of winners. As in, why do 90% fail? Additionally, if you fund 100% of companies equally, if 1 becomes FB and 99 become nothing, dont the winnings from F

There cannot simultaneously be a surplus of COBOL developers and a shortage of COBOL developers. Well, supposedly there could be one in the Midwest and one in NJ, but theoretically those who do not have a job in the Midwest would be motivat

It sounds like it's just a way for the Navy to blow taxpayer money. Look at how our government managed a virus. Now imagine WW3.

Almost every town has some code that says you can't do that. Or the house is already built, and tearing it down to make a brick one is $$$ plus permit maybe will be denied. And most homebuilding companies only use wood.
