I've never worked somewhere with a codebase simple enough for a new engineer to find and fix a non-trivial bug on their first day. Especially not with someone looking over their shoulder deciding whether to hire them.

They are correct. Stuff like project zero is an extreme outlier. I've been using a MBP for 5 years and have never used homebrew on it.

There are also planes and trains, and, if you're travelling to a remote location without access to either of those, rental cars. But most people in an urban area are primarily travelling within that urban area.

OK? You ignore the larger point by disagreeing with the terminology I chose. Reducing car usage in the US by 70% would be an absolutely massive win

83% of Americans live in urban areas and 70% of annual vehicle miles are in urban areas. Rural communities are an edge case where cars would still make sense.

I would not use an EAP program for an employment dispute. While it is supposed to be confidential there have been cases of confidential information getting back to the employer. Considering we're talking about Tesla and Elon Musk I thi

I stopped using Amazon for most purchases after they sent me a "new" item that was very obviously used and came in a used sandwich bag that still had crumbs in it.

I'm looking forward to your followup post where you lost all your money and can't figure out where you went wrong. It always happens with people who think they are smarter than the "dumb money" they're taking advant

Products that are trying to be useful first do their due diligence and realize that blockchain is wholly unsuitable for anything other than creating speculative assets and just use a normal database instead.

DAI is not backed by dollars, it is backed by other cryptocurrencies

Fine, there's one that's a DAO instead of a central authority, it's hard to keep track of all the different flavor of crypto scams. This one will collapse when a bug is found and someone gains full control instead.

Yet again cryptocurrency advocates independently rediscover why financial regulations exist and are good

For now, until they decide to "pause" the blockchain like Terra. Stablecoins are centralized and your ability to use them is entirely dependent on the central authority letting you.

If you don't want gatekeepers I've got some bad news for you about stablecoins.

I agree, there is no such thing as a stablecoin

The big stablecoins have terms of service that say they don't guarantee you can ever redeem them.

Use Tweetbot if you're on iOS. $6 a year for a chronological feed that never tries to switch you to the algorithmic feed and no ads. The last time the Twitter iOS app tried to force me into the algorithmic feed it was the straw that br

If you’re using bitcoin you aren’t purchasing anything instantly. Transaction confirmation is currently taking ~7 minutes.

They weren’t fired, they had an offer revoked. But either way, two things can be bad at the same time

Not every negative departure is the departee's fault. As an obvious example, if a POC experienced frequent racism at a company they might leave a company without having anyone they would want to use as a reference even though THEY were

Apple doesn’t consider them to be associates though, that’s the point. Their job titles at Apple AND in the databases are accurate up until they leave the company and only then is their title demoted to Associate.
