Rekeying the lock is the main issue. It costs money and then you need to redistribute keys to anyone who has one (other family members, nanny, cleaner, etc.)

How would that solve the problem? Any of the workers could take a picture of your key and recreate it later.

I think it's pretty clear that the only two outcomes of this scenario are societal destruction via climate catastrophe or we find a way to cleanly 1000x our energy production.

Gitlab is a productivity company. People use productivity products because it increases their lifetime earnings, e.g. this product will allow me to do more work and doing more work will allow me to earn more money. The layoffs aren’t just a

If you ever have serious work done on your house, it requires letting contracts in for weeks. If you're not home, you need to leave them a key outside where dozens of people likely have access to it. I always change my locks afterwards

That’s not the conclusion at all. The article says monkeys can understand and produce words (via signs). They can’t talk because they don’t have control of their larynx. They’re mute essentially.

If Gitlab wants to increase peoples' lifetime earning, why not start with its own employees? Didn't they layoff hundreds of people?

There have been many North American cultures imported from Europe. In the US and Canada, they all tend to die out after a certain amount of time. E.g. the Spanish had a colony in Florida. The Dutch had a claims to the Hudson valley in NY&#x

And none of those cultures have cultures nearly as strong as the Quebecois, which is basically a global cultural brand at this point.

And yet Qubec is one of the most culturally distinct places in the U.S. and Canada combined. Surely cultural preservation laws are part of that.

Yea silk floss is really nice. Food caught between your teeth sticks better to the silk than to glide, and getting the silk between your teeth requires slightly more pressure, which feels nice to me.

If you don't already have central AC, you likely use window units. Mini-splits can be good in these situations. They can be mounted on the exterior wall and the heat pump can be mounted in many different places.

by rcme 4y ago
Heat pumps have the same footprint as, and can replace, AC condensers. So if you already have central air, you should be able to retrofit a heat pump. You might need a new air handler, however.

The Fed wants to keep rates as low as possible because their mandate is to keep inflation at 2% and maximize employment. If inflation is at or under 2%, then lowering rates will increase economic activity and increased economic activity wil

My point was more that the Fed wants to keep rates as low as possible. The person I was responding to was implying the Fed would choose not to lower rates even if they could to avoid “bailing out” the banks.

The Fed is projecting rate cuts next year. As of March 22nd, the Fed is projecting a federal funds rate of 4.3 in 2024 and 3.1 in 2025, with 2.5 in the “longer run”. Hard to say the Fed won’t cut rates when their own projections have them c

It does make sense. The FDIC is holding 90B in assets from SVB. Those assets were purchased with deposits. First Citizens actually bought 72B in assets for 50B. So 72B + 90B is pretty close to the original 167B. Using 90B as an estimate, gi
