You'd be amazed at how many people get confused about "new" TLDs (not .com, .net, .org, .edu, or .gov). I have an email account that's @mylastname.io, and I had to buy mylastnameio.com because I got tired of not getting

In the cases where animal testing is justifiable, I would love to see us start funding care for the remainder of the animal's natural life as part of the grant that funds the original research (at least in the cases where the research

I don't think it's been obvious at all, at least as evidenced by preventive measures people take. If it's airborne, then "social distancing" (especially at 6 feet), hand washing, and cloth face coverings are not suf

Joined a company 2.5 years pre-IPO, and made about ~200k pre-tax (but I waited until after the IPO to exercise as I didn't want the risk) at lock-up, with another ~400k still vesting. Worked at another company that supposedly on the IP

Awesome work - it must have been super interesting to dive into so many difference companies! The current state work that you describe is super fascinating. Be wary of survivorship bias when you're using today's landscape to draw

Did we forget that the Supreme Court is a Supreme Court that can overrule Zuckerberg? This feels like another step towards the creation of a private, shadow legal system designed to give the impression that corporations can self-regulate.

100% agree. I’m trained as an epidemiologist, and this coronavirus talk gets so frustrating. The problem doesn’t just boil down to R0 and CFR, but also considerations like how reliable is the data you’re receiving. In grad school, our pro

^^ This is exactly the answer! The positive predictive value of a test changes based on the prevalence of the disease in the population. With rare conditions, you can end up with way more false positives than actual positives, which can c

I've always been happiest when I have regular volunteer work that I'm doing. I've volunteered in homeless shelters, as a crisis counselor, and doing wildlife rehab. The work is never glamorous, but gets me out of my head an

I agree! I think my volunteer experiences doing non-technical work have made me a better communicator and more well-rounded developer. It’s also let me find a community and friendships outside of work (those all-too-rare post-30 new frien

They definitely do if they’re self insured. That doesn’t mean your boss can just pull it up willy-nilly, but I promise someone in HR can. I’ve sat in on conversations at my company where we’ve been pitched on claims analysis tools for our

Don't worry about lasting change, worry about what your contribution to the problem is. I think the veg*n community is a good example where a proportionately small group of people stuck to personal commitments to not eat meat or anima

by reureu 7y ago
Why not both? You can stop personally contributing to the problem while you also advocate for system-level changes. Also, there's likely personal benefit (e.g., improved health, decreased cost) that comes with making these changes.

by reureu 7y ago
Obviously one solution isn't going to solve the problem, but we'd get a lot further if the single solution people adopted was eating less/no meat instead of (say) not using plastic straws.

But the legal system expects that you go to HR and that they act appropriately when you report certain things. So, I'm not sure the "do not talk to them" is always correct. Scenario A: your job sucks, and you don't see

I would argue "top-25 school" isn't a necessary qualifier here. What you're talking about is students with intrinsic motivation to study a certain topic, and that exists regardless of the caliber of the school. dvs, at

I've worked for enough crappy managers that I know how much that affects my job satisfaction and work-life balance. I'm at a point where I'd probably (and, currently do) sacrifice 10-15% of my salary just to work for someone
