Person 1: I like <list of things> Person 2: Those "features" are arbitrary stuff Apple told you to care about through their marketing. How wildly condescending lol. “You don’t actually like those things. You just do as you’r

My favorite part of insider trading is that it only punishes those who take action. You buy or sell. If you have insider information that prevents you from buying or selling, that’s just fine (at least that is my understanding).

I don’t rely on my coworkers for companionship, but I work eight hours a day. Interacting with people that are “friends” is better to me than interacting with people that are cold and indifferent because they have no interest in being frien

Maybe this is just my ignorance, but I honestly don’t care how they get these speeds to me. If I’m actually getting 2Gbps symmetrical, I don’t care if it’s because they installed a hamster wheel outside my house and that little guy is losin

Exactly. They didn’t do jack to improve their offerings until municipal fiber became a real threat. Now they are doing what they should have been doing for years: actually improving their product and competing. I hope it’s too little too la

Do you participate in society? Do you interact with other people? Better schools could help make that a more pleasant experience.

Why not both? People shouldn’t steal cars and companies should probably be held accountable for gross negligence.

Collective subsidizing how? Are you referring to food stamp and other government benefits? If so, I’d argue that jobs offering better wages should help with that issue.

Excessive? Since we refuse to build light rail and such, at least we might have roads that aren’t slammed sometime in the future!

Why is it that people working <less good jobs> shouldn’t have families? Why does half the country have such a firm belief that the bottom tier of society has no place procreating?

I worked for a mega-corp (not FAANG) and my manager told me that the company did “extensive research” to determine market value for each position’s salary, and that their goal was to then be at 95% of that market value. So annoying that you

How has this worked out for you? When I graduated college, I had an offer for a software engineering position and a sales engineer position. I went with the software engineering position as it paid better and I felt like it would be a safer

In my experience, the best raises are from getting a new job. What were raises like for your engineers that stuck around for 10-20 years?

Two single digit numbers is indeed sad, but I pull out a calculator daily to do math I could have done in my head. I don’t feel that that is inherently bad.

Not exactly related, but your comment about plagiarism made me think of my days of writing papers and citing APA style. How do you cite a source if it came from ChatGPT and it likely doesn’t fully understand where it got its information?
