I mean, I used to say that I'd never be able to run for public office because <thing that a lot of people do, but that I should be mildly circumspect about>. These days, have you seen the people in public office?!? If you can be

I had a conversation with my wife about this. For context, I mostly agree with you, however this is something you and a spouse should agree on and have a plan for. We have two young girls, so there’s that. Additional context: my wife is Jew

My brother-in-law works at Sandia. He likes the pension, the work, and the quiet atmosphere. He doesn’t like the commute, and you still get a weird performance review culture, at least in his experience. He described a PIP process that soun

Most people put our ability to perceive network lag at 100-150ms. Human perceptual limits in vision is around 13ms, but that’s not exactly what we’re talking about here. 50ms is very very playable in networked games, I wouldn’t notice perso

I’m curious if, after 10 years having passed, coaching in the operating room has become widespread? Any surgeons reading this? Pre-emptively exposing my bias: speaking as someone who advises CTOs and mentors people at work when they ask, I

Without taking away from your first paragraph at all, if any dissidents are publishing their access codes to GitHub repos, they are 1) doing it completely wrong and 2) are already screwed. The threat here, in the worst case, is associating

Uber drivers want to make more money. Uber wants to be profitable. It turns out the two may not be reconcilable. The cancellation behavior you noticed is a direct result of this. The way it works is that Uber is trying to force drivers to a

So I agree that he did smart things in the past. However he is totally incompetent managing Twitter in a rational business way. For a while there I thought he might be trying to get the debt reduced substantially and was preserving cash in

The $4M / day that Musk says Twitter is losing is comprised of $3.2M in cash to service the debt and $.8M other losses.

I typically take a mix of things, cold soaking is only one element. Couscous, instant oatmeal, ramen — stuff with flavor packets in general work well. I’ve also done bulk buy and added my own spices for a change - it just depends on how muc

You apparently have a very negative view of people who work at Twitter. I worked there for 4.5 years and literally no one I worked with or knew of there would ever make such an argument. The only people who even really have a claim to such

So you're saying that a law firm has decided to risk it by filing this lawsuit on behalf of a few no-name Twitter employees? You can't ascribe 5-d chess skills to Musk on this one, he's lost the benefit of the doubt.
