Beware: “minimally habit forming” is anecdotal. There are many other anecdotes of it being quite addictive. See quitting kratom on reddit for more info.

This idea would only hypothetically work without Medicare or Medicaid. Right now all it does is squeeze the middle class even more as they’re required to further bare the costs of the ever-rising, all-consuming system. So now the middle cla

I have the same reservations. What impetus is there to compete against entrenched cartels/monopolies? Inevitably 5G will have the same 1TB cap Comcast invented in order to juice profits off the death of cable television. LTE had the sa

A decent couch from crate and barrel probably goes for 800-1200 or so. At 50/month for a couch, you’d pay the cost to buy it outright in two years. It would also be interesting to see what they charge for any stains/damage. Is “no

Hopefully viewed even worse as the question would then be "why is NASA outsourcing spacecraft critical component construction to India/China?".

I’d fit that case under my “minimum seat space regulation clause”, but yeah, not gonna happen. I feel for the tall guys on flights, but not enough to want them to jam their seat into my chest. Real enemy here is the airlines and the lack of

Currently flights effectively have no room left anymore -- I have absolutely no idea why the seats on short-haul flights have the ability to recline. It's impossible to use a 15 inch laptop if the person in front of you moves their sea

Not so easy if you’re google-able and clearly work in tech. They won’t squeeze blood from a stone, but if they smell money, they aren’t going to negotiate. The advice frequently found on reddit about negotiating is good, but keep in mind it

For one, the article seems to be impossible to read on an iPhone via safari.

I couldn’t find it anywhere, and am assuming no, but does anyone know if this has HomeKit support?

I mean, maybe, but do you really think they have some sort of well-staffed cyber-division that would 1. understand this and 2. know what to do with it? My guess is they're still operating like it's the 1980s. Hopefully I'm wr

The interviewer usually makes some sort of excuse then gets right back to the actual reason they're in the room with you: leetcode 101.

Pay more, else go out of business. Why do I, the American taxpayer, need to subsidize already heavily subsidized farmers?

I think it’s exactly that, willingness to conform, and a very effective filter on age. I know Google does a lot of metrics on hiring. Have they correlated their practice with IQ anywhere? Guessing nothing public as that would trigger a fire

Nice marketing stunt, but how many security researchers already have a Model 3 or are going to buy one to do this? Guessing just already-successful firms / personalities that want to win Tesla pen-testing contracts in the future? Or ha

Wouldn't you need some sort of intercepting MITM HTTPS proxy to be able to inspect the traffic for ad content? Thought Google was using https and legit domains to drive ads instead of just doing lookups to youtube-ads.google.com etc. P

Last I checked, most embedded interviews (presumably barring Google etc.) can still be passed if you work through most of K&R (which is quite easy and accessible), know a bit about OS's, and memorize some trivia about locks. Worth

How, exactly, are they going to starve to death on food stamps? Some sort of fancy medical diet Medicaid isn’t covering?

I guess Steve should have been grinding leetcode problems for hundreds of hours instead of helping out with Rust in order to not be "looked down upon by serious engineering teams". In all seriousness, had really good interactions

Fair enough. I’ll have to read their privacy policy in detail. I’d love the trust I have in google for security updates, but am wary of the potential data collection.

Apple made the only router that my parents could setup. I’m guessing the Google WiFi probably has a similarly friendly user experience, but I’d rather not sell them out to Google. It was a shame that Apple abandoned the airport.

Outside of defense, which is probably where 99% of it is still done, malware analysis is the biggest area. Some consulting firms will hire some people. Sounds neat and mysterious, but if you want a high paying career, learning C# or Java an

But what's the solution to this? At the end of the day the Fed Gov has become an incredibly successful jobs program for vets. (see vets preference and all sorts of affirmative action there) Obviously, one can make the argument that per

I think in some states they can appeal from small-claims to non-small-claims court then you have to get a lawyer. Obviously a super pro-corporate court system.
