It's an issue because when your parents were young they didn't need a handout to survive. Nowadays the young are unable to offer themselves the same lifestyle their parents had and that's partly because housing cost is throu

I think a rigid 50/50 is the wrong way to go about it. Just because you are in love with someone does not mean they provided half the value you both accrued while together. Taking half of what someone else accomplished just because the

I worked a few years in Paris and then in Canada... often for American companies. Even if he exaggerates a bit the points many of my colleagues who did similar stints is that "In Europe you work to live. In North America you live to w

I too know too much about the bias in online polls. But this one touches home. At my workplace we only have 2 of the new MBP with the new keyboards... 100% of these people have issues with at least one key. They're the most frequent us

I tried the V1 and found it lacking in terms of flavour and texture. It looked decent until you bite into it, at which point it looked less like meat and more like ground up veggies. I applaud the effort and look forward to tasting V2. That

I like how some people are complaining that he'll take 80%... for what amounts to just giving you an idea and the first client. Usually we hear the opposite side on HN. "Why would VCs own so much if all they offer is money when w

I think Rails is amazing. My only gripes with it are that tests run slow and you need plenty of tooling to make things work (redis, sidekiq, anycable). I have been particularly interested with Phoenix as of late as it fixes all the gripes I

I find nutritional yeast tastes cheesy. It's just not the same as MSG. I also find that MSG goes a long way... just a dash in an entire casserole can elevate the taste without going into salty territory.

I'm reading about Ray Dalio's life and he nearly went bankrupt before becoming one of the top 100 richest people in the world. Don't let yourself down by thinking you are failure. You may identify yourself with your project b

I've heard a documentary about some physicists saying that quantum hasn't provided anything substantial yet and is hard to prove and often explainable without quantum theory. That said here is a starting point: https://

Only if you optimize for distance to door. Thing is walking 2 minutes is actually good for us and just because other people are competing to get the closest spot doesn't mean you should fall for that as well.

Blame the driver... of course the driver was told that the car drove itself... he was watching a show on his phone when it happened so Uber is putting the blame on him. I don't think the driver was trained properly to drive in that sem

This is BS... the money cannot be "gone"... what do they mean by that? There is a public ledger. We would know and can trace where this money went to. Do they mean the wallet was not on the laptop instead?

I'd be concerned about the drop out rate. They started with 55 the day of, 50 the next morning and 22 just after. That said I am a proponent of psilocybin research and believe there are some merits to it. I just think this is an odd pa

Many people have trouble sleeping on an empty stomach but not doing their work. Also night time is socializing time and there is no way that I would skip a supper with friends to fast but skipping breakfast is super easy to do.
