Related: It drives me bananas when a mega-corp makes a small R&D team and the job req says “we are a small startup in a big company.” The benefits, bureaucracy, speed of innovation, and equity all fit the usual mega corporate shoes, so

There are other parts of the country that have beaches. To each their own of course, but the salary to rent ratio seems better to me in many other places. I own a home so rent increases aren’t an issue I deal with directly, but I see your p

California is such a beautiful place to visit, but I’m curious why anyone chooses to stay when there are so many other great cities you can move to for a fraction of the cost. I understand that moving is expensive and difficult, but you’d t

This is definitely the thought provoking commentary I look for on Hacker News. Either make an intelligent argument or hush.

I can promise that it won’t go 100x, but 5-10x is still possible and would be outstanding.

My understanding regarding winding down those gifted classes was that it had little to do with them not working and everything to do with them being full of children that are statistically more advantaged than their peers. Aka full of white

That’s fair and I appreciate your response! While I’ve seen things that hint that Bitcoin might be starting to gain traction in high inflation nations commonly located in Africa and South America, we are a long ways out from seeing a Kroger

I’m sure this is going to make you laugh and/or annoyed, but what about Bitcoin is exactly “wrong?” Curious if after all these years you’ve found the words.

I guess I’m not sure what it is you’re trying to propose instead. “IQ tests are ineffective.” Okay. How do you propose we determine what children are smarter (because there will always be those who are more advanced than their peers) and ge

My theory: in the United States, speaking multiple languages can be a sign of coming from a more financially sound household. I wouldn’t expect a second language to be any better for the brain than studying math or learning to play an instr

Not a single life was saved from the vaccines, even though deaths from COVID were almost exclusively amongst the unvaccinated once a majority of the population received their shots? That’s an interesting take.

If true, that’s genuinely sad. But it raises the philosophical question: what’s one life compared millions saved? That’s easy to say when you aren’t the one with (alleged) vaccine induced ALS.

The same people who cried about this are usually the ones who tell you to “learn to code,” “just move,” and to “pull yourself up by your bootstraps.” I have a hard time having sympathy for people who are misinformed and make sad choices as

Yes, but I think most people care about availability of data over true ownership of data. If I’m running a business and my internet goes out, there’s a huge selling point to a local DB that allows my operations to keep chugging along until

I personally love CarPlay. A requirement for my next vehicle is wireless CarPlay, and I will not even begin to consider it if it does not have that. Some people want ventilated seats or a V8. I want CarPlay. I think this is a very silly mov

Nuclear is obviously an amazing source of energy, but the stigma is insane. In high school, my Chem II class had an assignment where pairs of kids had to present on why nuclear was good or bad. Of 16 or so kids, only my friend and I present

That’s fair. While there’s obviously a limited number of positions, how hard is it to get a remote job with an American company? My American company currently employs one guy from Europe, but I’m not sure how common that actually is.

I get trying to upsell you, but why would you turn down a sale? Make the suggestion and then let the customer purchase whatever they want. A sale is a sale, no?
