Seems to me the solution is to just let the people take the cardboard ( and to an extent, other scrap material ). If they’re taking it to make money, some of them probably actually need that money. I know people who walk around making a hun

Most of my money net goes towards cycling gear. I buy new clothes maybe once a year or once every two years. I have a custom made suit that I bought from a bespoke tailor in Chengdu for about 1200 usd including custom shoes. I still want to

I’m gonna start wearing my cycling jerseys and bibs everywhere I go in tennis shoes now.

I think that’s certainly influenced this trend. Make the client side do all the hard work and server costs go down. I’m not sure how much that cost is, but I’m guessing it could be substantial.

What I find darkly hilarious is that these landlords won’t find anyone to replace those they evicted... because nobody can pay the rent

Ehh I’m not sure if this is necessarily true. You can, in fact, completely separate front end from back end... but that distinction is very Blurred nowadays due to front end frameworks requiring hundreds of Megs of code just to work. It’s s

I recently finished playing Watch Dogs 2, and the missions go over this very problem. Social media’s impact on politics and how data is used to influence the masses. Quite scary actually, that the real thing is happening.

It's a little worrying that the UK already ordered 100 million doses of the vaccine, even though it hasn't passed trials yet. I understand that tons of resources are being poured into making a vaccine, which will make developing t

The purpose for me to taking notes is to help me learn, remember, and possibly come back to in the future. I almost _never_ look at my computer written notes unless I know that I am going to look it up later in the day. To that end I have a

What is the point of this? What, is using a "yellow" color for "warning" going to be removed next? What about "red" for stop or "remove"? I can go on , but basically this is getting ridiculous.

Oh so using sex to implement fear and uncertainty and despair ( FUD ) among the populace? Think of the children! By the way, here’s a firewall to block whatever websites we don’t like. Oh and you’re being monitored 24/7 now. But not no

Most likely yes. You would probably have to be a citizen and secret clearance.

This is really cool. I will purchase this next month when I have a bit more free money.

Wow this kinda blew my mind. I never knew there were tv sites like Hulu tv, or even YouTube tv... And the prices! Outrageous. I’m glad I stick with Netflix.

It boggles my mind that as a member of the military , I was more restricted in what I could do and say than our public figures are.... at least it seemed like that.

It literally came down to knowing someone who knew someone, and getting lucky enough to interview and them saying yes. Without connections you're gonna have a tough time.

Kinda living it already; Taiwan. Love it here. Close to Japan and Korea, and my remote company is in Japan. I would like to try living in Europe someday ( Switzerland would be awesome ) but I don't make enough money to do that yet. And

Clearly coronavirus is a great excuse to let workers go. I doubt there’s going to be much hiring going on once this plays out, at least not with current wagee

So my company takes a somewhat similar approach to those who can, and those who want to. We are 90% remote. Most remote employees are in the same area though, so sometimes they commute to the office for weekly meetings or just to hang out a

I can’t help but feel like there is going to be a glut of privacy invasive technologies coming down the pipeline real soon for managers to keep their jobs.
