It's a bizarrely simpleminded and incorrect meme, then. The government doesn't know the exact answer - if they did we wouldn't have to file at all. Have a kid? Buy a house? Go to college? Make $60k selling illicit drugs on

Good question, I forgot this happens time to time. I set DNS at the router instead of devices, so just tell them to turn off wifi on their phones when that happens. It's actually slightly more complicated because of parental controls(

Brave + NextDNS/ControlD is what I've found the be the ultimate ad blocking combo for the entire household(TVs, phones, computers), when balancing cost/effort. PiHole is popular but IMO not worth the effort when the above are

Same. My city has a Walmart, Publix, Food Lion, Kroger, and Aldi. Yet they keep building dollar stores, I think there's now 5 within 10 miles of my house. They all seem to do decent traffic, which baffles me. The stores are a mess,

My tastes changed a lot over the years. I quit liking sweets in my early 20s, I rarely even have sugar in the house. Sometime in my late 30s I started appreciating more nuanced flavors, including black coffee, but mostly vegetables like gr

I guess it depends on circumstances, but it boils down to each department only cost others some marginal cost in practice. Imagine a hosting company and a dns company, both with plenty of customers and capacity. The hosting company says...

I'm rather curious why they even want HBO. Yes HBO has had far, far more quality programs over the years, but it's not like Netflix hasn't had ample time and infinite money to do the same if they wanted to. Would be a sad da

If you purchased it for the sole purpose of reselling it, that makes you a domain squatter, so yes.

At least in the US, Pepsi used to own Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, and one or two others but that spun into its own company years ago(called Yum).

True. But in my experience, the pattern of just using short lived goroutines via errgroup or a channel based semaphore, will typically get you full utilization across all cores assuming your limit is high enough. Perhaps less guaranteed in

That sounded high to me as well(probably because I rarely eat eggs), but then I remembered my parents who each eat two per day which isn't that uncommon I guess.

This happened at a place where I worked years ago, but not as 'on purpose.' We were a large company where most pieces depended on other pieces, and everything was fine - until a new CEO came in who started holding the numbers of

1990-1997 averaged >4% yearly compounded minimum wage hikes, which is probably about where it should have been. The late 90s to today has been <1.25%.

It is, but under "life, medical, and health" insurance, and only based on the employer not function. Any contractor like say, maintenance, janitorial, cafeteria, etc for the building would not be counted. People who work at hosp

I've not been following this closely, but reading the headlines each day....is the timeline roughly - India: Every phone must install a cyber safety app Apple: No India: OK, nevermind ?

Not all of it, but definitely the insurance part of it IMO. It's hard to get an actual number, but many say nearly 1 million people work in health insurance in the US. And I'm not sure that even counts the people whose job it is

Leaving out the word liberal as I don't really understand its context here, individualism was at one time a boon for the nation/economy. People move out of their family homes early, start their own family, chart their own path.

It matches mine as well. People will pretend to be your best friend, but when push comes to shove, they will absolutely throw you under the bus. And maybe that's human nature, but I don't have it in me. The people who will give

I agree with the last part, but in many ways that had already been done or at least accelerated in the era of bootcamps. I had the displeasure of working with more than a few folks who got into it for the money and claimed it was easy, who

I'm kinda surprised this deal seems to be 18A still. While progress, 14A is what really matters, as Intel has more or less been threatening to just give up if they don't get a large 14A commitment(unless that's changed recen

As a supporter of single payer(or really, anything else), I support this move. When half the nation is on subsidized healthcare they aren't so likely to care about costs. Now, you have a lot more angry people, and hopefully that leads

Anyone who has ever used Gitlab, or dare my foul mouth say Jenkins, has experienced a better system than Github actions. Unless it's miraculously improved recently as it's been a couple years for me, they didn't even document

Same. I put up with it because of my absolute hatred of paper wasps. I've watched them straight lance the wasps through their head and drop them dead. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, for now.

It's weird. When Netflix came about, I was excited to dump all the bespoke pirating stuff that it replaced. I didn't mind paying for content, in fact, I was glad to. Fast forward a while, and now Netflix seems to be an undiscov

Go is a weird one, because it's super easy to learn -if- you're familiar with say, C. If you're not, it still appears to be super easy to learn, but has enough pitfalls to make your day bad. I feel like much of the article
