I don’t think this is true. At least on iOS I only see links to more videos in the description.

You lost me at Samsung/Apple/Jeep/Nintendo. I’d definitely put Apple in the top tier of phone and laptop quality. Especially w.r.t laptops, the majority of Windows devices seem comparatively low quality. I’m not sure about th

I’m not familiar with the term “Polygenic Screening” and couldn’t find a clear description in the article. For anyone else like me, this Wikipedia article describes what a polygenic score is: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki&

Worth mentioning that RAM can be upgraded on the Razer Blade 15. I also have one and have upgraded SSD and RAM. Sadly the new AMD version (Blade 14) has the RAM soldered on. I'm not sure why. I hope Razer isn't backsliding here.

I don’t know. It is maybe not as secure as possible but it is certainly more secure than a password. I think it’s a baby step. I see other threads under the parent comment recommend banning SMS 2FA altogether. Surely this would be a step ba

Google (who isn’t at fault) is named like 5 times in the Twitter thread. At a glance it as though they are to blame even though further reading shows they aren’t. Despite this, the carrier is kept anonymous? Strange.

I doubt that. The interesting part is that there _is_ a goal even if we don't know what it is: * US Government is telling the truth - goal may be to figure out what these are. * US Government is lying - goal may be to mislead an advers

Genetic engineering is not the only way there could have been a lab leak. Did you read the whole post? It makes a different claim.

I'm hoping to get an AMD PC sometime in the future. I hope this works on more than just Intel processors.

I’m finding the idea of taxing wealth less strange the more I think about it. At this point I find it almost equivalently strange to taxing income. Assuming there were no income tax I feel like your second paragraph could be rephrased: I’m

I read and enjoyed Atlas Shrugged. Sadly I think the main points about Objectivism are lost and people substitute in Libertarianism. While Objectivism isn’t the best philosophy in all cases, I don’t know any that are. It is still a useful w

In my experience a team breaking up or role model leaving is a good moment to do a temperature check and decide whether it’s worth staying. Perhaps I’ve been lucky though. I’ve worked at places with potential to move internally which has ke

I agree with this right up until the last sentence. If you feel the need to be an “impeccable toy model” I’d say leave. Sounds like a recipe for a life of misery.

Is this true? I hadn’t realized. Does it do this for companies like Font Awesome?

This is a great story. I know its not related but I can't help but feel a sort of analogy to engineering work: the tension between idealism and pragmatism. At a previous company our build times for a game client were around 5 minutes o

I see your motte-and-bailey and I raise you a straw man. I don't think there is much to read into “trans women are trans women, and are in some ways different from cis women” from this author. I certainly don't read “we should be

I agree with you. However, I don't agree with the voices of managers. I manage a few engineers and haven't had additional trouble during the pandemic: * People show up when meetings are scheduled as always * While I can't get

I believe I work longer. However, I'm also avoiding up to two hours of commute. Before the pandemic, commuting was the most draining part of my day. I'd gladly exchange the commute for extra working hours.

I agree with both POV here. It _is_ disgusting to see Big Tech playing politics. However, I don’t think Trump’s ban has much to do with that. He simply broke the rules. Probably the thing that makes me saddest about the whole debacle is tha

I love co-pilot. Throughout the pandemic my fiancé and I used the feature to play different sections of single player games as though they were multiplayer. I don’t think either one of us would consider ourselves to have a disability. I use

Are you referring to something in the article or is this a general statement about big tech? I’m curious because I read the article and couldn’t find the instance of “big tech playing politics” you are talking about.

1. Constant communication with users to figure out what issues are impacting them and what they would like to do with the product in the future. 2. Trying to convince management to focus on the right things. In practice this is really just

I agree. If a business can’t make a profit, it’s hardly a business at all. I don’t know that the question is so important as to outweigh the moral consequences of making that profit though. I suspect that to some people it is _just_ as impo

It's always good to remember that we are not so different from our ancestors. For example, we are very close in time to the people who held the Salem witch trials. What would those same people have done with a high-powered tool that le

This is a valid point of view but would make me question using the service even more. It doesn’t seem like a good look when the more important question to a company is “can we profit” rather than “can we make the world a better place”.

I think I understand. From height 0 figure out what gun angle gives the largest distance and then calculate the area of the circle with that distance as radius.
