Who else read this and found that the issue had nothing to do with work-life balance, but with Google now being a “bullshit job” company? see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullshit_Jobs

I remember the first time I realized I was no longer interested in “interesting” UI when I tried out Snapchat. Later I read a Gen Z user saying that the obtuseness of the interface was a plus. I wonder how much is a factor if biology and ho

I went to high school with George Hotz. He was nothing if not an iconoclast even back then, someone who refused to do anything he didn't really feel had any value. I remember one year we had a combined English and History class assignm

while I am 100% in the "more practical effects please" camp, I would also wager that criticism of the state of CGI in films today is in large part a matter of survivorship bias: we are only noticing the bad CGI, and not appreciati

I would have died if I weren't wearing a helmet a couple years back. The conjecture on the part of this brain surgeon about how people _would_ act is a flimsy supposition.

I think the author here is either being willfully obstinate, or they just don't get it. Paying expensive rents is patently a service, rather than something you own. And a lot of these experiences don't have to be expensive. Travel
