I'd be very interested to hear the perspective of your sales and management teams. Your view is obviously very biased and only tracks "productivity" from the programmers. "Number of builds, commits, releases" off-ha

I used to get drained by uncomfortable clothes without noticing it until I got on the Vuori train. There are plenty of other brands now but the Meta pants and Strato Tech Tee are my go-to's. Sizing up helps too. Not sponsored, I encour

That's what State Schools are for. CalTech is where we send all the giant-brains so they're not held back and can produce things for society that us small-brains could never comprehend.

Do you plan to sell to hobbyist consumers? As another thermal-rider I realize this would be amazing if it could do short term soundings at a launch site, or to have a fleet that can navigate back to a designated site for pickup and redeploy

I fell for the Google Home, and it has gotten significantly worse over time. My only hypothesis is they found ways to reduce the cost of running the server-side, and it does not benefit the consumer. My Consumer Report: Do not fall for har

GDP in such a services-based economy is unreliable as a metric for the ability to produce, since just moving the money around now contributes to it.

I would really love to see a breakdown on how paper straws came to be. It seems that overnight after that Turtle video a lot of laws were passed, and paper straws (which I had never seen before) were flowing out of every place that sold dri

Sounds like you have beef with leetcode. I think that comment was referencing the problems on leetcode tagged with the "hard" label.

That is good for temperate climates in the right season when there is a big difference between day and night. It's a terrible design for consistently hot or cold places. i.e. Norway in the winter you're running some kind of heatin

Business and consumers both benefit from not using a cost-plus pricing model in a marketspace heavily dependent on R&D. Sure, the profit margins are hard to agree upon since it's an infinite scale and they change heavily day to day

DDT is another example of bad things going on for decades that had severe repercussions. There's definitely something going on with wheat from America too, though I don't think it's been discovered/publicized.
