I admit that some of what you say regarding wars and consideration of rights outside of US Soil are in decay of late, but please also inspect the extent to which the United States continues to protect the freedom and liberty of which you sp

The dictionary definition of this is typically something like "when combined, greater than the sum of their individual parts." I guess technically if you combine two companies and accomplish the same thing but more cheaply due to

When a word is used to the point of meaninglessness (when "expected synergies" don't exist), or when its use is really a euphemism for "we're going to fire a bunch of people" then it exposes itself to mockery.

Working from home one day a week likely means that your company / colleagues are not set up to actually behave and interact with you normally during that day. Alternatively, if you're set up to work remotely every day, you come to

I appreciate your exercise / decompression time. It's something I miss occasionally being remote. 8:30-5:30 with an hour on each end for a commute is definitely more of a typical workday I'd say for somebody in an office. Tha

I work remotely and have a very consistent schedule / routine. I have a family so that helps in terms of company in the house reminding me to leave the office. When I leave my office (a dedicated space), I'm done for the day, but

Has anyone successfully hacked any of these TVs to disable the smart features? I would pay some money for this kind of firmware patch on a future purchase. It seems crazy that the software is so terrible and yet nobody has found a way to di

Past edit time but, for clarity: I was talking about the renewal exams not ANY eye exam. Of course you shouldn’t just YOLO it and buy some random magnification. Machines will likely be able to do this if they can’t already, but my main poin

Fair point after re-reading my above as if it were out of context of the article. I am not trying to say you should not get qualified advice - you should! But if my prescription is working for me 2-3 years in and I lose my glasses, there sh

If eye exams were really that necessary, they wouldn’t be selling readers in every drug store in the country. Should you get an exam? Yes. Should you need to if your vision hasn’t changed? Nope. This whole “gotta have a two-year current pre

If they sold all of that together with your name I could see that as a problem. I didn't see that in the case of California, but follow-on Vice articles report > The data sold varies from state to state, but it typically includes a

If we re-framed this as "California Hall of Records selling property purchase records for an administrative fee" would folks have the same reaction? Is the problem here that they are selling DMV records related to authorization to

They're not selling your data to the highest bidder. It seems like they're selling it to people that appear to demonstrate a need for the data per their policies, and there is no bidding process, but rather a fee structure for al

I’d second Jekyll because it’s easy to get hosted on GitHub pages with a custom domain, or just a .io default. A no-brainer for low maintenance pages with easy Markdown updates in my opinion. Also nice to know it will be supported by that g

I would argue that the single command to begin using the application and the ease of on boarding / querying data was a huge factor in expanding its usage. Elastic optimized for initial spin-up and getting things running fast. It works

If I only had an hour, i'd focus on a simple intros of really fundamental techniques kinda like the OP indicated, and not necessarily cooking everything in that time. Knife skills. Keep them sharp. Mise en place. The importance of salt

I was thinking similarly, but a bit more destructive - it would be an interesting exercise to plan a fire mission that would scuttle the ship to retire it from active service while not damaging the museum around it. Always interesting to be

I have to imagine the Pixar shorts are, however, a way to do this kind of technical experimentation to better render mediums between stories? Some examples for me include the sand / features rendering in Piper, and the water rendering

This isn’t a cure but it helped me and the author mentions their job having to be on Twitter a lot. The constant churn of social media (esp Twitter) is not a place for sanity or calm and is absolutely a recipe for late nights wasting away w

To make this work you would need a lender willing to lend four cents on the dollar to someone that has defaulted on a lot of debt for awhile (typically not someone that can obtain credit easily) There may be an opportunity for a non-profit

No, not if the book is wrong obviously . In this interview case, however, you’d want to be pretty specific about where you thought those flaws might be and suggest ways to make it even better. By “the book” I meant a well thought out proce

I assume this was for a supervisory position or an HR position? These aren’t really politically charged questions but rather questions about how to manage people and the issues that come with people. While the cause of the complaint may be

Fascinating about the memory areas activated when folks knew a soda brand, while if they didn’t know the brand it was more the senses and taste, which clearly determined the preferences. Is it ethical? “For Charity” was basically their answ
