I've said this before, but I really don't get any useful results from Google at all anymore. I have to prefix Reddit for every search to at least try to get a vaguely human answer to a question. Of course Reddit is still gamed and

This will further increase housing prices, no? How much more unobtainable for the average American could they possibly get? I suppose negative interest rates will let us know shortly!

This thing always made me laugh. It’s actually quite genius considering most of IBMs customers are going to eat it up, but goddamn imagine making a favorable decision on a multimillion dollar security contract because your exec team liked

Another good tip is to always request google.com as a desktop website in mobile safari. If you don't, you get mobile google, which forces you to go to the AMP reddit, which then pops up multiple banners every page load asking you to in

Why did you go to an emergency room for a fever instead of urgent care or a nurse practitioner working out of a grocery store?

Once Canada starts developing those trillion dollar home brew companies that deliver a product most of the world uses at a high margin, I’m sure Canadian salaries will go up to match.

Probably less lucrative than the government blessed monopoly on data and media distribution they developed that required virtually no investment in anything other than lobbying.

I've always been confused by this -- if you're allergic to dogs, and the flight is required to have a dog on it for whatever reason, is the airline then liable for any and all medical bills related to an allergic reaction after th

Possible, but Amazon eventually bans for enough returns, so that isn't a great solution.

Do they truly operate at a loss, or do they operate at a loss in the same way Hollywood films never make money? That's absolutely fascinating if so.

While this is a rather crude way to describe the issue, the homeless are increasingly taking shelter in libraries during the day. https://americanlibrariesmagazine.org/2019/06/03/give-them-s... It's cert

5% is not a safe withdrawal rate for "in perpetuity". 3% is much more realistic if you want to be conservative.

Easily by not living in the Bay Area. People FIRE at 1 million, which I always found a bit silly considering we're in the midst of an amazing market hyperinflated by some rather concerning fiscal policy, but with 2 you can weather a lo

What party has some sort of vested interested (presumably monetary) in slowing down FDA drug approval? Perhaps I'm being a bit pessimistic here, but after reading the article I don't really see any motivation for the "raising

Only reason I haven't switched to brave on iOS (for that free ad cash) is that using the back gesture seems to always reload the previous page, whereas I don't think that occurs in Safari. I suppose the other reason is that it&#x2

So, if that's the concern, Europeans are free to pass regulation that requires credit companies to extend the same credit line to husband and wife. Naturally, that will potentially have unforeseen consequences with regard to modeling r

Speaking out about what? The guy appears to be claiming that a company is discriminating against women with no evidence aside from a single anecdote. Seems like he's some sort of rich 1%er founder, probably not approved under any sort

I’ve always wondered, how do they know if you’re in the EU? Can I change my address to somewhere in the EU and get my data deleted or will they check?

Judging from the picture, the guy looked like a bumbling American nerd, not some sort of freedom fighter or partisan. I'm sure they pegged him as a potential spy from the start. Got in over his head, lead to a tragic end. Lesson here i

The entire article is a guy doing a serial port hello world on a slightly more "advanced" arduino. This, like a good chunk of security research, is designed to generate press first and foremost, but isn't really an educationa

I've been in numerous poorly built apartments and the only effective way I ever found to mask doors/cabinets slamming, footsteps etc. was with a portable hose AC unit. The compressor was loud and generated a nice masking low frequ

Screen. Most of the time saved is not having to try to install whatever bizarre serial driver windows needs. Also python if you need to programmatically connect and operate a device over serial. Quite easy.

As a guy who uses serial enough to wonder the same thing, my solution was buying a cheap Linux machine. Serial is thousands of times simpler and more convenient to use on Linux. Probably not too helpful if you’re dealing with poorly written

I've stopped using Google for searching for various generic terms and instead search nearly everything as site:reddit.com 2019 "search term". Sometimes I get mildly useful information that stands out from the page after page

Yes, contact the local police so an investigation can get started. Yes, that’s enough to at least report it.
