Could it be that you hesitate to "write" because you've accurately "read" the room? E.g. a toddler may find it easier to kick around a ball on a lawn vs. a kid kicking it around on a soccer field with boundaries,

Startups that go through an incubator or that are seed/VC funded typically qualify more free credits. The CSPs offer this in the hope that as the company grows so does their cloud spend. Couple that with the fact that it becomes harder

Can we stop using gaslighting when it's not applicable? This is an instance of deceiving or lying, not gaslighting.

That's an interesting take and I hadn't considered how the subject matter is such that staying clear of summaries is the best recourse -- thanks. But perhaps there is a way to add the very TL;DR that would have been near the botto

I found this article difficult to understand. Though I was able to eventually follow along with the theme, perhaps a quick explainer of what a "beat" is? Hint: in police terminology, a beat is the territory that a police officer p

Well if they can do anything about car break-ins and larceny in SF I think they'll get a lot of business. Bet they can also package their service when renting a car at the airport. Almost dystopian, but I can see it.

You could have a little key printed on peripherals near the female socket that details what kind of cables they recommend and accept.

Thanks for the insight -- I have never seen an exec take more than 3-4 weeks per year though. Did they ever take the full two months in your experience?

I've always wondered this about senior execs. As an IC I could easily unplug at 5p every day. Now, as a manager of managers I have to force myself to unplug for a couple hours each night to maintain some sanity but I'm always thin

A great thing I did couple months ago was to turn off iOS notifications for email and gmail. I don't quite recollect how email went from an asynchronous mode of communication to a near real-time mode of communication where people often

Even on Mac OS, when you go to "About This Mac" -> "System Report", you only see the iBranding and not the generation (I see "6-Core Intel Core i7" on mine for example).

"HOA Neighborhoods" as the author defines them are largely a suburban construct IMO. In a large city like SF for example, single family homes aren't typically a part of an HOA -- you're free to extend your home as you

Strange to see this happen at Crissy Field, which is decidedly in the "nicer part" of the city. Car break ins are common at the Palace of Fine Arts (about a mile away from where this incident happened), but most people would consi
