Do a ton of excel work - the 1m row limit is surprisingly low. And sharding across worksheets is miserable in my view

Also commenting on single monitor support - a key note I missed from original reviews and maybe a reason to wait till more pro models come out?

Which is why these govt type of interventions, which are all centered around getting more and more permissions from users are annoying. We will get more click through screens that 99.99% of users will say yes to. Seriously, how many users

Actually many are required. I had a funny situation in person recently. This place had consent forms - lady checking folks in would offer to sign on your behalf. A few folks asked what it was - a consent form - oh sure, please sign for me.

If you manage domains and force this stuff off your users will def complain. My worry is we end up w a situation such as cookie notices - users have gotten so used to clicking through content screens they don’t pay attention anymore because

I run mostly us-west-2 - and when talking about AWS I've always felt reliability was pretty good. us-east-1 really is the one that seems to get hammered the hardest on the error counts.

Gmail and youtube are offered free to users. They are supported by advertising. This is not 'suddenly 'free sites' and 'advertising'" - this is how both of these sites have been from the beginning, adding paid

Huh? Amazon put prime under amazon.com. The domain doesn't mean you have to use the same servers, google already just proxy and load balances behind their existing domains. They could easily redirect youtube.com to yt.google.com, or se

Free products are generally supported by advertising. We are being told the W3C has “slapped down” googles attempts around FPS. I am making the point that if google comes up with a workaround to this “slap down” - users will follow - even i

The way to help everyone is to raise the minimum wage - let’s do that. Let’s increase social safety net which helps everyone. Continue to expand Obamacare even. Consider basic universal income. Lots of ideas help far more than having a few

Users will use / do what is required to access YT. Google could proxy through a google.com domain so same site cookies could be set, they could implement this in chrome and users would follow along

And google hosting everything under a google.com domain wouldn’t?

How did w3c get such power to “slap down” google. If users can’t access gmail / YouTube etc, they will be ignoring the w3c. Another workaround if google can’t try this in chrome (it can) do cookies on a google sub domain (yt.google.com

We need to be clear - 15 is 2x minimum wage. And minimum wage affects everyone. So these politicos and others even here should probably do a bit more to help workers get the Amazon minimum before trashing Amazon? The “egregious” conduct is

I use AWS - the customer service seems great - I've personally received good service, the support life times are amazing (I used Simple DB). These articles with "I wouldn't use AWS I'll leave it at that.." - be more

For sure. At least at amazon while they don't demote you, if they are not that excited by you on the team equity goes pretty low. https://www.lastweekinaws.com/blog/aws-compensation-explaine...

When you sign on at a FAANG - you get a sign on package. This includes stock grants that vest over time. After that time runs out, if they like you, they will promote you and give you a new batch of grants. If you don't think you are g

Exploiting nonprofit status to generate a personal benefit is not legal in the US. So if the board members, officers or whomever have some personal benefit to this crapcoin taking off, it's not legal for them to use nonprofit resources

I live in the US - and drinking with staff of different levels is tricky for a number of reasons. Inappropriate behavior broadly defined is not tolerated, and drinking is already in that category in many California and east cost areas. Publ

I'm not disagreeing but a couple of things. - When living and interacting locally I think folks moderate their views a bit - call it "politeness"? - Views locally are somewhat more homogenized? - For better and worse, I'

I think instead of saying it's relaxed, I would describe it as very local? Folks work pretty hard in Caribbean, but when I was there (a fair while ago), I also worked dang hard. But you absolutely felt like you were in a bubble. You re

That's kind of crazy of Amnesty to take this sloppy approach to their definitions. While systems are not perfect by any means, the US is in a totally different category with respect to corruption, rule of law, judicial independence, ev

I think you are confusing corruption (which amnesty supposedly claims US police are leaders in) and violence. I've actually traveled internationally and worked in tough areas. US police / customs etc are not corrupt (relative to d

Have amnesty traveled internationally? Corrupt police overseas are routine- ie, almost every interaction involves cash pmt on spot usually w no receipt for various fines and fees. I’ve been stopped plenty of times by cops in US and have nev

A good point. It was basically as part of scoring of ideas. I think in the weaknesses box the panelist had noted lack of experience / plans with respect to X and Y. So while I would make a suggestion, this was probably more in critique

I think this is a good framing. Note I always frame as a suggestion rather than a critique - ie, places to increase focus.

I'm not so bothered by this personally because it's not someone asking / giving advice and getting blasted by it. That's the real crux that I see. The scenario you paint is uncomfortable - only because there have been a

This is a fair question - not sure why you are getting down votes. Background - I'm actually on the left a fair bit. So one issue - you are not supposed to really ask minorities / women to explain / teach you / help you
