You can’t use n95 masks for toxic gases. These are what I would call paint respirators mask. It’s like a gas mask but doesn’t go over the face fully.

I banned YouTube kids from all devices because of the kids shows. These unhappy looking Eastern European kids finally put me past the edge, they looked like they didn’t want to be there at all. They have millions of views and are likely mak

Nokia brick phones dominated the US market in the early 2000s. I’ve never seen a Symbian outside of magazines and internet tech writers. Symbian lost to iOS and Android within 2 years of release. Not to mention developers were never going t

Meta and Google have insane cash cows and they are outliers no matter where their workers work. Other huge companies like Walmart and Amazon have huge workforces that have to work somewhere. I’d like to see breakdowns by industries: healthc

What makes you think all US companies are like this? A lot of non tech roles were made redundant at my last job, affected people had a 90 day notice and if they stayed the 90 days a hefty severance based on years worked. My current company

My brother in law is a bee keeper and we were able to catch 2 wild honey bees swarms this year. A couple days after they swarm he takes them him and marks the queen. This is so they'll know if it’s someone else’s swarm from near by. An

They didn’t have the metallurgy to make a reliable steam engine. However I think they could’ve industrialized a lot of things using a bronze turbine or waterwheel and a ton of belt systems like old factories once did with line shafts.[1] [1

I have 23 days plus 15 days for sick kids/family member and “unlimited” short term sick leave for myself. All at a telco in the US. I turned down 2 other jobs that had unlimited PTO where you could really only get 2-3 weeks max.

It’s the reason I love my M1 air so much. No fan and barely any heat. My company issued HP zbook for Software Engineers is very loud and pushes lots of heat out. I would love a quieter alternative for large Windows laptops.
