You have this all wrong. Spend $150 on a grinder and $10 on a v60 and buy the best beans you can find and you’ll have excellent coffee. Too many people think equipment is more important than coffee. It isn’t.

The obvious explanation to my mind for all of the murder and crime is simply that the people who go to Eton are incredibly entitled. They grow up in a society where they are taught that they are entitled to anything and everything they want

That’s how I read the article too. We wanted to move from ruby to node. They even admit that the most well know language is ruby in their org. Seems like a pretty serious waste of resources to me.

I think it's probably quite difficult to report on this topic for very long without developing what appears to the rest of us like bias, but maybe is just the balanced way of approaching the situation. For example when you read the wit

So I’d sell products to my customers (say bags of coffee) and then 30 days later come by their house (charge their credit card) to collect? This is a terrible idea. Half of the people wouldn’t have the money and your company would become a

Yea but as a food producer (also a coffee roaster) I also get payment terms from my suppliers. And it all kind of makes sense when you think we are all adding value and margin. The “loan” everyone is giving to the people later in the chain

Sounds like they took acid and also designed it doesn’t sound like they designed anything more interesting because of the acid. In fact (no shade on a good trip) maybe they’d have got more designing done if they weren’t taking acid at work.

I think this is amazing. Not every attempt to solve housing problems will be a hit but we have to try or else we’ll never succeed. Hopefully the next round of solutions will learn from these attempts. I will say that it might seem contradic

Two main ways. First off in a direct comparison of CI/CD we are just way faster. We maintain pre-built environments on our workers and split your tests between them. Because we aren't rebuilding your workers on every run we get th

I always assumed the future of electric trucking would involve little battery trailers that could be quickly swapped out on a rolling basis by fleets of trucks. It seems the “refuel” paradigm makes sense for fuels where the majority of the

Here is an article on the prices, seems like prices for domestic travel have fallen somewhat (about 25%) since the 60s. That is comparing economy. So if you compare business now to economy then I think the price has probably increased drama

People seem a little confused about this. So, things can be both cheaper and worse. Things being cheaper does not mean they are better. So has flying become relatively cheaper - yes. Has it become worse - yes it has. Also, it's not cle

Flying is way way way worse. The business class offering is now equal to the old economy offering (alcohol, food and space to relax) and the economy offering is now some weird hunger games event where you are pushed to compete for who gets

Is this satire/sarcasm ? Cause if it is you need a little more humor in it so we can recognize it. So I have to assume this is for real. I'm going to have to just say this is 100% not what I am talking about. First off when I say

But the point I was getting at is that perhaps having a wider network of connections - larger than just your immediate family - would be a better buffer against loneliness. In societies with more dense familial/societal networks people

I remember reading an article about youth unemployment in Spain. It was extremely high, something like 60% for people under 25. And the obvious answer (to me an Irishman) was why don't you emigrate. Lots of other parts of the EU have h

So, while every country in the world has issues with social isolation and loneliness I think the US seems to have a particularly large problem with it. I have no evidence to back this up but it seems to me that family structures in the US a

Super interesting you mention “local first CI”. Have a look at Brisk https://brisktest.com/ (I’m the author). It’s designed to work “locally” pre-commit, giving you super fast tests, but then when you push you can also use

But it’s such a vague statement that it could actually apply to lots of things. Like say advertisements. Say dating. Say pretty much everything that happens all the time. The definition of fraud you use is overly general.

All the more so for switching to wind and solar (and reducing usage). Nobody is saying cancel energy. Just that switching away from coal is probably a good idea.
