One thing I do know is that putting tons of huge wind farms off of the coast of California would likely be a disaster for migratory birds that travel the pacific flyway down the coast, many of which are not found anywhere else in the world.

I'm not sure, but it's worth pointing out that more and more of Apple's revenue is coming from software services, not hardware.

If you are looking for ways to help, here are a few: 1. Rewild/plant natives where you can, such as your yard or if allowed, easements or verges, ideally from pollinator-safe plant nurseries or places which care for very local species

I am surprised at how well this actually reads!

Trust me, I'd love to create a JavaScript-free version of our app! But for now we are dedicating most of our time to communicating with projects, our users, and generating ideas for making a real impact in the climate crisis.

We are working on this at Wren (YC 2019) — reforestation and regenerative agroforestry are very effective methods for sequestering and offsetting carbon. The more people that support these projects, the bigger scale they get. https:/&

I'm so confused by this comment. You downloaded Firefox on MacOS and scrolling was broken? Scrolling itself is always broken on Firefox on all platforms? Considering that scrolling clearly isn't broken for Firefox users (I think M

Right, no doubt about that. However, the perception of nuclear energy is just as important for policy as the science of nuclear energy. Therefore, I think gut reactions are important to discuss alongside the science.

This is essentially the "effective altruism" argument, and I don't disagree with it. I was simply explaining my gut reaction, which I think is also worth discussion alongside a conversation about the true value of nuclear ene

While I do agree with the premise of the article, my gut reaction is "tell that to the community living in Hunter's Point in San Francisco." That community has suffered from being around radioactive waste from nuclear researc

You can live decently in the valley on a lot less than 300k. Speaking from experience, even 90k is perfectly comfortable. Based on the salaries of my friends in SF, $150k is a very reasonable salary that allows a fantastic lifestyle.

Typescript is relatively new, and I think a lot of those companies are still trying new things and experimenting with what works. I expect that we will see more refined content and books about TS-at-scale in the near future though. However,

The amount of vitriol directed at Everlane for this Union thing is astounding. There never was a union. Some people on the team wanted to form one, but most did not. It caused huge cultural issues and tension across the team, and the pro-un

Speaking as a former employee with many friends on the front lines of this event, the lay-offs have very little to do with the team that (previously) wanted to unionize, and much more to do with COVID financial impact and the retail team, o

That’s a good point, I’ll think about it some more. I suppose I just wish that writers could talk about the issue with a little more nuance.

Don’t get me wrong, we do have a homelessness issue. It’s just that the city is also other things and other people.

I’m a little tired of people coming to San Francisco, staying only in the tenderloin, spying on the homeless, writing about how disgusting the tenderloin is, and coming to the conclusion that the city is a liberal dystopia. Every city has p

I think you could release a simplified version of biking directions that isn't perfect, but better than nothing: - For a limited number of cities, determine which streets the city lists as having separated bike lanes, painted bike lane

If Apple could bring bicycle directions into the app, I would probably never use Google Maps again.

I used to work there, I can confirm that they are legit about their standards. They visit their factories constantly.

Are you implying that being able to have an intimate relationship with another human being disqualifies someone from being a "good software engineer"?

I've heard nearly nobody complain about bugs in iOS 13, in fact just the opposite.

I wish they didn't look so silly to ride. I know that scooters will slowly become more ubiquitous and, as a result, will be considered more normal and less goofy to ride. But for now, it just kinda looks goofy to a lot of people.
