To be fair, moving is a pain, you'd be giving up an investment you've held for decades, and you may have settled down into an area and not want to move around. Plus, maybe there just aren't many other options where you live.

The diversity ratio is likely not going to be affected just by some people being laid off. I wouldn't expect it to change or to have been a factor in this.

So, random question: if you end up interviewing for Amazon at some point, is it a faux-pas to bring up legal troubles and controversial issues like this while speaking to your interviewers? Is it a bad idea to bring up (for example) this no

I've read and heard enough Japanese to be able to pick out the differences in VA direction between English and Japanese audio tracks. 90% of the time, I end up preferring the Japanese tracks.

To add to this: this is 90% behavioral in nature. We like food, eating food makes us feel good, therefore we eat food and snack constantly. Obviously, you'd do it - it's like getting a hit off your favorite drug. If it didn't

Honestly, the human body just isn't built to lose weight. We're built for starvation and packing on as much as we can, while we can. Humanity is just a victim of its own success with the sheer plentiful amount of food that's

It's a preferable alternative to sugar, sure, but the salt content could be a concern. Wouldn't be a bad option if the other option is soda.

Expensive cities are where the jobs are. The grand majority of companies want their employees to work in their offices. I really think the "developers can work anywhere" adage is way overstated. We're still tied to location l

The problem with that last bit is that there's also the issue of convincing doctors that you suspect something's wrong. Sometimes, doctors don't take patients seriously when they're concerned about something, or don'

...Which is why it's important to get in as much as you can while you're young. Unfortunately, not everyone has the foresight to socialize at that age.

There's no point in making technology for something we don't even have the science down for. Unless, that technology can be used to improve the science...hm. That might be the best thing to do right now, for startups - how can y

I'm not convinced that there's more jobs than people in the tech market, especially now that people are starting to wise up to the fact that jobs are being automated away and want to transition into stabler markets like ours.

I agree, it felt like repeating the same mistake. However, there was a slightly different context in that they were comparing data between two different, parallel-running approaches. That may have helped avoid it happening a second time, ma

I dunno, man, there's only so much tech can do. There's not much an app or CLI can do for the economy or civil rights legislature, for example, and those are the two biggest problems for me.

I've had it happen too. Granted, it was kind of a bullshit zeroth job where it happened and the company folded a month later, but it still sucked. I almost brought in cupcakes to share with the company...

I'll likely go for Ubuntu just because it's the most accessible choice right now, and the distro I'm most used to. In my case, is there a reason why I should go to other distros? I'm mostly used to distros like Arch, Cor
