Yeah bullshit programming classes https://www.whitehatjr.com/ , where they promise that your kid will become the next Gates/Zuck. Have your kids go outside, let them indulge in free play, explore. We're destroying

KS has become a scam. I crowdfunded this one product, they kept delaying the shipping date, then they said they shipped it, no details of shipment, then they informed me that it was delivered. I gave up, scammy douchebags!

Speech detection is just amazing when you think about illiterate folk, it's a game changer for them. Jio's genius was offering free data plans for a year, getting folks hooked. But the fact that it only costs 9 cents a GB is amazi

You got me thinking.. "manager" truly means someone who should be managing resources and process, smoothing out the kinks and letting his team work like a well oiled machine. Unfortunately most managers are rarely this, they thri

But you have pharmaceuticals to help with that, the trick is to keep you just enough alive pumping those drugs in your body. Death is a serious monetary loss.

Can you please tell me about your experience?

Have a heart for the Pharmaceutical Industry, how will it survive without sugar-laden foods forced down the pipeline? Who will take all the drugs for so-called "lifestyle diseases"?

Interesting, are you a member of either. I moved to the Bay Area a couple years back. Would love to join one of these organizations.

Hey - Apple is not shipping earbuds or wall chargers with the IPhone! SV companies and their virtue signaling.

As a huge fan of Hugh Laurie, I loved the Night Manager. I know they were planning to extend the series..

I started investing in my 20's too, fortunately had a few good mentors who taught me the basics. Am talking the general population.

Have you seen the Robinhood interface, it's gamified to the extreme, and you expect 20 year olds to be mature enough to resist temptation?

Does not surprise me, skilled practitioners of this dark art are sociopaths. If you have not, a great book to read " The Psychopath Test", where it talks about how a lot of CEOs mirror traits of psychopaths.

Not necessary, interviewed for a Sr Engineer role where I clearly impressed the CTO, but didn't do that great on a stupid coding exercise. And that was not even a requirement for the job, and I told them that was not my strongpoint. I&

I've met some 10X engineers, not the one's you've described but ones that take 10X the time to finish than they initially estimated.

I agree it is relevant, but not many people spend time exploring it or asking the fundamental questions and ruminating on them. If they did, you would have lesser visits to the shrink later in life, and far less inner-strife. I believe phil

Who cares about best in Software Engineering? Time and again I've wanted to do the best, to be asked to just provide a "workable solution" because either the best costs time or money. And I get it, business is all about trade

I work for a company that does about 100M revenue per year. Run everything on prem, we did the numbers if we moved to AWS, it was almost 10 X of our current spend. Again , depends on your business, ours is complex and compute intensive. But

Most people here are saying therapists, but the crux of the problem is the "tech" job. The sooner you can get out the better. Everything else is a band aid.

That "Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-1000" is way out of budget for me. $1300? Thought this thread related to home office printers.

I have a Brother entry level laser printer, first printer in years that I've liked. Will never buy an inkjet again, there is something inherently flawed with that technology.

It's not that bad, ask for Suprep which is 2 16 oz bottles rather than the gallon you had to drink with earlier preps.

"In Vietnam in 2007, in Brazil in 2011, in Pennsylvania in 2013, and in Indonesia in 2014, Foxconn announced enormous factories that either fell far short of promises or never appeared." Wow! Smoke and mirrors on an epic scale!

Smoking not so much, alcohol is considered "haram", you see smoking to be a lot more prevalent.

I made peace with this another way, took a remote job so that I have time for pursuits that I enjoy - working out, racquetball, reading, cooking, traveling and being there for my kids. You can look for meaning elsewhere, not all professions

Absolutely agree. I got one a few weeks back, the colonoscopy itself was painless, the prep is the worst part. They found some benign polyps, which were removed. Yes, people, if you have a history of colon cancer please talk to a gastroent

All drugs are enhancers IMO, some less like weed, and some more like Shrooms and LSD.

My experience has always been the opposite, it's the well heeled guy/gal who has had one too many drinks and wants to bum a smoke. Go, buy a pack, not giving you any! But if a homeless guy asked, always gave one.
