Shouldn't they just go to school later when it's darker? They could come up with a policy to start school later and get out later in the winter or something. Why does the entire country have to modify their clocks for a few minori

The problem is the freeloaders of the internet far outweigh the people that want to pay for services. Until that changes, we will continue to see the internet dominated by targeted advertising. Honestly, it will be interesting to see what h

How do you know what you are getting from them is too little until the service itself is gone? I suppose you can estimate but I feel like without targeted advertising the web would be a dark place. Personally I don’t pay for much (prime, Ne

This is a common response across hn for any post related to Google, it's great how you boiled it down to such few words. I just think it's interesting that if anyone posted the equivalent of this on any other topic it would be dow

There is a medium though, that will ultimately save you money/time. If every company had to spend time answering every small question with a full time employee, your services would be a lot more expensive, hold times might be longer to

Side effect of this is probably making much less than your counterparts. If you can ace a leetcode style interview, you are much more likely to have competing offers (or retention offers later on) that allow you to make MUCH more. It’s a ho

The founder of a successful startup I know used to tell his first funding story all the time. Over a game of tennis, he asked for $2mm, the VC agreed before the ball soared back over the net. He always would say, “I should have asked for $4

I wouldn’t jump to conclusions before we fully understand what’s happening. Maybe this issue was introduced in the latest version of android (that would be my guess seeing that it was just discovered) thus fixing it in a patch release on th

Agree with you and I think of this problem similar to that of slavery (not nearly the same ethically though). It does concern me however what it took to make people give up their advantages, the grossly more obvious inequities in that case

No… Well I guess if you were adding SMS as a 2fa option to your real 2fa would increase surface but that wouldn’t solve what the parent comment was saying. So yea don’t do that (but it’s better than just a password). 1)Password alone is wea

Oh yea they paid it. Negotiation for rates happens before you pay coinsurance. I’ve called them and discussed it all. They send a $10000 check. Odd part was in this case, we had a follow up ultrasound for another $2500 for a second hour aft

Seeing the price range you pay is interesting, but I'm not sure what we are supposed to do with it. My wife had her prenatal anatomy scan a few months ago at Stanford medical, $11000 for a 1 hour ultrasound. I personally was on the hoo

Totally agree on lack of transparency, really of all the options right now. I think most of these companies sell in enterprise large quantities so when it comes to consumers they just don’t have a means to provide info, support, etc. When

Yes, there are actually quite a few. In general this is called "carrier aggregation" although this is a generic term and there are many ways in which this is done. I find it more simple to think of this as an analogy, two (or many

Yes exactly! The wifi bridge mode of the Cradlepoint is super interesting. One major drawback I've found in practice is that if the campground/public wifi network has a splash page, I basically can't get it to work. It takes

All anecdotal but I regularly swim laps (a few times a week), shower, and free dive with my Series 4. Just last week jumped off a 30 foot cliff and the clasp came loose, it literally flew off my wrist and sunk to the bottom of the ocean. A
