   Surprised to see rtx 3080s. Where are people buying RTX 3080 graphics cards these days? All the prices I see (USA) are either 2500+ or out of stock.

   Can someone explain why the hand drawn version is better? I’m not an artist so don’t really understand. They just look “different” to me.

   I tried Noom twice. I was the only man in the support group both times. It didn’t really speak to me or work for me. Definitely interested in this!

   I think OP was referring to calling someone for the sole purpose of socializing, which is often a lot of "pointless smalltalk"

   At the most basic level, life expectancy has increased everywhere [0] and so quality of life has increased for a large number of people who would otherwise be dead. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_expectancy

    Here is the quote from Alan Greenspan: "Yes, there are options to combat that decline, but contrary to what many people believe, we do very poorly in opening up our borders to skilled immigrants. Our H1-B visa restrictions are a disgra

    A lot of this article is about fast food workers, who don’t get tips. The answer is automation, logistics and supply chain improvements so you can service more customers with fewer, but more specialized employees who can be paid a living wa

    Yeah this article says “climate change causes an increase in flooding and this was a flood therefore it was likely caused by climate change.” which is circular. I found an article seems to imply that frequency and severity of flooding in Eu

    Aws lightsail starts at $3.50 / month for a VPS. I’d suggest you start there to learn about aws and figure out the rest as you go. If you prefer linode or DO they are pretty good at your use case. I wouldn’t use k8s unless you have a

    “RTFTaxCode” doesn’t answer OP’s question. What is the mechanism for paying $4000 and avoiding taxes? I assume some sort of trust? What are the details?

    Capital investments occur when the cost of labor is greater than the cost of automation. The rate at which these investments occur is complex. Here is a short example from the agricultural industry. https://ecommons.cornell.edu&#

    There is a cool algorithm called space colonization that can do a lot of what l-systems do (such as tree modeling). Pretty straightforward to implement and has some nice results. http://algorithmicbotany.org/papers/col

    I used to do this but life is too short and there is no joy. Some products take years to get to #2, they just are really poor at what they do and you don't even realize that they are terrible until you see someone with a better version

    I used to read a lot more books 10-20 years ago. Now, I mostly read books on vacation. I think I have an unspoken budget of “words read daily” that is consumed by work and my mobile devices.

    I feel like there is a much simpler version of this. “Live within your means” Invest as much of your salary as possible. Pay for your living expenses with free cash flow. If expenses exceed cash flow, reduce expenses. When your free cash

    My favorite is when I try to play a video, it flashes and resizes several times before playing. And then sets any other video to autoplay as soon as I scroll to it.

    Do you have an alternative to this agreement? Are you willing to walk if they won’t budge? I’d suggest that you stand your ground and redline it in the employment contract. It will materially impact your future earning potential. Perhaps

    Isn’t sitting on boards while you work at megaCorp a conflict of interest / violates your employment agreement?
