If someone is an esports player, it would be hard to stay a professional (in most action games at least) at age 30 simply due to natural wear on your hands and reaction times getting slower.

The News Media Alliance, which is doing this lawsuit, is basically another lobbying group from News Corp, Hearst, Sinclair, etc. Based on just those 3 names alone, you can infer this is not a group of benevolent angels or small-town newspap

Buzzfeed reminds me of fast food, where there’s a few specials of options for show like “Look we have a salad! Look healthy!” but 98% of everything else produced is crap made as cheap as possible to sell it at volume. Buzzfeed’s money maker

That’s definitely a concerning weather report to read. It feels nice when it’s not frigid, but damn the repercussions are gonna suck in the near future.

It’s a good thing many Americans now have more willingness or emotional drive to care more about the environment, but the US really needs to rip the band-aid off on the recycling falsehoods passed down from the 1980s. It creates a false ima

That’s spot on, it’s like seeing a scene of deja vu from the 1960s where people didn’t give a second-thought about throwing garbage anywhere until the EPA and Clean Water Act entered the scene. People get used to it being “a thing” in their

I would be surprised if Twitter doesn't already have some kind of behind-the-scenes payment arrangement for these "VIP" level users to protect their accounts and do whatever other special things. If Twitter doesn't alrea

Work on leads, networking, and sales as much as you can to learn the ropes and then figure out how to offload, automate, or optimize those things as best you can to create sustainability. Talking to the decision makers and having friends or

The key caveat is here is that changing circumstances does not mean easily reproducing the exact results from path A to B. If someone is working at a prominent company, and (for example) making $200k while their employer is making $500k in

It’s not just governments across Europe, but this petition also calls for the ban of companies doing it too. I wonder how the “watchdog” piece of this would work, practically speaking, since nowadays almost anywhere with a decent camera can

$17B - that’s a huge amount of money. I wonder if Intel is sweating a bit with Samsung now 2 states away. I also would like to see if this economic move with Texas will parlay into less patent trolls coming out of East Texas courts.

Google, Amazon, and lots of other companies are in the same stance as Apple. Deep down, I think the issue goes past working flexibility down to a multi-billion dollar financial question of what do these companies do with their real estate a

Are there any reasons why a private or public university wouldn’t want to maximize the number of tuition paying students? I’m just wondering because why not just admit as many people as you could for various price tiers of: in-person, hybri

I think taking personal opinions on ‘media’ in the macro vs micro sense might yield differing results. At a macro level, a majority may not like “the media”, but at a micro level people would have a positive outlook on “the media” from the

The difference Togo has going for themselves is that they are like a startup country that has to be lean and resourceful because they just don’t have the money or - for lack of a better phrase - bureaucratic structures in place. The artic

It’s nice to set an expectation for work life balance. How does this situation work for “flexible hours” though? Or it this kind of expecting something like you only work 9-5pm and can’t be contacted outside those times.

Tons of places use devs in Poland, Romania, Ukraine, Belarus, Russia, Bulgaria, and Serbia for example. Most of the US companies that outsource to Europe mostly just choose to outsource to the cheapest places with good talent. Office wise t

And pretty soon Linkedin will also be charging 20%+ fees for freelancers, similar to Upwork/Fiverr, and like what Apple and Google do with their app stores. This would be in line with Microsoft's DNA to focus on merging Linkedin w

This whole clusterfuck of states vs. the federal government on vaccination requirements is a big clog in the pipes and a bunch of unnecessary headache. Realistically, at what point is the US at "terminal velocity" on vaccination?

If a key aspect of this whistleblower’s accusation is Facebook not doing enough to fix foreign hate/misinformation outside the US, then what exactly is the expectation to get out of going through a government investigation? Why would t

I don't care about Facebook, and am not interested in using it, but after reading the spiral of consequences Facebook has been in, it made me think: 1. To all the governments that want to tighten more control on communication, this is
