This is so obvious it's painful. People obviously trust google, otherwise they wouldn't be switching their emails to google, doing all their private searching on google. They willing give google EVERY bit of personal info about th

Antitrust lawsuit seems like a joke. We're going after google for search? Which has literally the lowest switching costs out there and is offered for free - and this is what the govt is calling consumer harm? Meanwhile, I can think of

Not if you are on hetzner or one of the other major spam hosting ISP ranges. You will blocked in a lot of places. Folks talk about these places and the "unlimited" bandwidth and the "friendly" abuse teams. Ergo - you can

One point (I'm a dual citizen BTW). Europe has pretty strict environment rules, but they are not normally abused to stop a project by just delaying and litigating it forever. In the US, the actual care for environment is lower I think

I was a scrabble player. This is really long ago, I feel like the app was initially OK (or maybe I was playing an illegal version?), was upgraded and was absolutely terrible. You can only crash once or twice and people just give up. How do

Trucks already have slower speed limits. A truck going 50 can stop as fast as a car doing 75. Run them all night. No rest breaks.

And google runs street view cameras everywhere with lidar now I believe, so their HD maps are getting pretty darn HD. They are going to be in a great position when this all shakes out.

Agreed. There are options for low res / narrower FOV lider as well with fewer moving parts / lower cost. At some point for safety you end up with a question - is it worth a few hundred $ to have definitive depth data in some direc

Companies have found that to hire engineers living in SF, they need to pay more than hiring someone living in Idaho. That is supply and demand. Could those employees move elsewhere? Sure. That may in fact happen. But right now, an engineer

This is the acquihire model. You don't actually have to do the acquihire. A company could just offer folks jobs directly (CA frowns on companies working to block employee mobility given employers can also fire folks with basically no n

Same applies to giving candidates you don't hire feedback. It's 100% a disaster. Most folks trying that learn pretty quickly!

Fair is not relevant, supply and demand are. Those are geographically different in major ways. Compensation offers follow this including for remote work.

Mental health I think is at least somewhat different. I'm surprised this hasn't been studied at least a little. A fortune in implementation costs (system I was stuck with was 10 years ago now - absolute trash / hell). The pat

For sure. But pharmacy is very competitive and at some point it's a losing game. For example - Walgreen runs about about a 4% margin and profit runs about $4 billion (all very rough numbers). The problem with theft is that its a total

Ease of use - how is that not on the list. Zoom persists / pops up / works for everyone. Signal? Are folks serious here? This is ease of use to onboard a 50 person call with a click? When I last checked they didn't even have

I have a family member who works at walgreens. The theft is incredible. In the bay area and particularly SF this is not one or two candy bars a week theft. In SF, if you stop a shoplifter and they are hurt, if they are in a protected class

I do, some third party search crawlers are just badly programmed, and after you get burned a bunch of times you just want to deny anyone who isn't one of the main players. I think they are basically startups with a lot of money to spen

There has been an issue with auditing. Internally in an audit firm the focus has moved in the last 5-8 years almost entirely to compliance. It is MUCH MUCH more important that you document everything per the insane number of checklists with
