It is frustrating, to be sure... but I think 18k jobs for 2 years is a net-positive for society. We wouldn't be here discussing this if the economy had not done so poorly. What if on average, you hire 10 people a year. Each year, ther

Couldn't this potentially make it so those jobs never existed in the first place? Seems companies would be less willing to hire if it becomes harder to let employees go. What is the incentive to take risk? The reason Europe is almos

I totally get what you're saying... but I also feel like this is akin to knowing how to drive a car without knowing the details of the engine. Sure, its a black box but we can operate on a layer that abstracts all those details away fr

I just don't see it... but I could totally be wrong. I think the focus will be on highly specialized models before anything with the breadth to intentionally fail a Turing test would be created. That said, what happens when it does fai

Yep. Blows my mind. I feel like many people just forget the difference between real life and internet sometimes. We're talking about people that risked their lives to escape a system. Not your political opponents on twitter.

I have some extended family from Eastern European countries. It's just so unfortunate what happened. The road to hell, paved with good intentions. They're normal people stuck picking up the pieces of a failed regime. Even with

What about Walmart? Tons of "huge" companies die without a blaze of glory. IIRC the average lifespan of a F500 company was pretty short.

For some people, the idea that death isn't a possibility would probably bring so much joy and relaxation. Work would be more relaxing, knowing it isn't make or break, lol

I'm not saying this is the case here. This Doctor could be a total grifter... but all the same. I've noticed a trend where a person can get _one_ thing wrong and be written off as a "liar" or a "fraud" for th

How many Tesla owners are rich enough to afford it just sitting in their garage?

I remember going around a few locations in Chicago and you couldn't even find any to look at. This was back 2-3 years ago.

I find the more "online" people are, the more "in-tune" they are with these things, for better or worse. Tesla just became one of the best selling cars in Europe (in Nov). The new Harry Potter game just became one of the

Sometimes I feel like people really overestimate the number of "rich people" and also attribute cartoonish behavior to them. I highly doubt the average Tesla owner (or luxury EV car, for that matter) is 1) so rich they buy it as a

Just want to say, not sure what exactly your software is but it might be a good sign. I have nothing to say on how to fight piracy (I do believe you should make attempts) as security isn't really my field. I remember any tech-savy&#x2

I'm the opposite, haha. I guess that's what makes good teams tho!

They're "accurate" when they get a decent measurement, imo. I can confirm with the other poster, I've found them to only be ~1 or 2 different from other oximeters. I'd always assume bad read first if you have an out

Perhaps a better term for "unlimited time off" should be found. I feel like it anchors the whole thing in a weird territory. It's certainly not unlimited and entirely at the discretion of the manager/decision maker. I

This is awesome. I think ppl should def share anything they made. As long as its not low-effort shilling... and your contributions are anything but!

As a full stack that is mostly backend, I like the way CSS frameworks allow me to not have to worry too much about design. I originally used CSS "properly" but I found that it was a chore/pain basically recreating these CSS

Worked on both monoliths and micro services. I'd rather work on a good monolith than a bad microservice and vice versa. The problem is, working on a bad monolith is almost impossible. I'd rather work on a bad microservice than a

Yea, I understand that. I actually run a trading firm but I don't do "long term" bets like that. Also exactly for that reason.

You know, I really like this comment because its pretty true. I think a lot of people will say they say the signs... and I initially wanted to say that too. It happened so "slow" though and its crazy to think about how "goo

I agree with your sentiment and I think you would agree with this, just wanted to get it out there. I've seen teams of 10-15 people that do absolutely nothing. Have 10 meetings about specs but space them out over a year, so that by th

Haha right? I can sorta understand in some cases but I have no idea why there is a market for "skipping around" in single player.

Totally agree. I really don't understand what people think the solution should be. If person A has 10,000 hours (because they've been doing something for years) and person B has 1,000 hours (because they had other commitments) y
