>But you have to remember every time to flip it before a meeting starts and after it ends. Agree, but it's an easy habit to pick up. >If you don’t then it will start being ignored …

This is very cool and I'm glad you were able to build it. On the contrary though, I've been fascinated with simple non-technical solutions to problems lately. For example, my buddy…

>It is _also_ your job to make them less bad - this is good because your incentives are aligned. This depends on the number of shits given. I can make anyone better who gives a shi…

>We're five years into remote work being way more common than it ever was before, and it hasn't broken that stranglehold of concentration yet. That's partially because big companie…

Google is certainly a monopoly in several sectors, search and YouTube come to mind. Amazon is a duopoly with Walmart and both need to be dismantled, but the damage to main street w…

>That makes intuitive sense, but quickly falls apart when you do any rigorous analysis. Buying a house might cover your shelter needs, but you still need to eat, and you can't eat …

Technically 2.

>It's got me wondering: do any of my hard work actually matter? It mattered enough for someone to pay you money to do it, and that money put food on the table and clothes on your b…

>It's a good pay job (comparing to other NKs) and they get to do what they love, so they are pretty loyal. I would imagine the state takes the vast majority of their pay.

He was virtue signaling. It's sadly all too common these days. As if he or any human isn't capable of horrible atrocities given the right circumstances. Don't let him or anyone sti…

Lying under oath would catch a perjury charge as well. In the United States, the general perjury statute under federal law classifies perjury as a felony and provides for a prison …

Stick at it for at least 2 years, keep improving, it will get better. I got a BigCo on my resume early on and I'm glad I got it, but I don't particularly care for BigCos; all the f…

Cybertrucks are all over the place where I live. Watching them drive by is like a blip in some futuristic movie.

>you are fed up with specific positions/companies that are a poor fit for you Agree. With no degree, but a skill and interest in programming coupled with experience, you're actuall…

>So upon check out you're just getting a fee and sometimes it's egregiously high and sometimes it is nonexistent? If you're buying a $100 item (and let's say a $50 cost basis) that…

This isn't sales tax, this is tariff. Not sure if they are any laws regarding that or not. It might be like shipping and handling: $20. The shipping is probably $5, the handling is…

Passing the cost to the consumer isn't a requirement. Sometimes it's impossible and stay competitive with local business. Say local business charges $110. Imported charges $80 but …

I think he means the display price. When you buy something for $100 and it ends up being $110 on checkout, the taxes are obfuscated on the display price.

Perhaps briefly. Companies tried this with offshoring support. Some really took a hit and had to bring it back. Some didn't though, so it's not all or nothing in the medium term. I…

Yes, good point. I suspect the numbers won't be precise. The objective is to qualify raising prices, not necessarily their own transparency. Of course this is signaling that Amazon…

Nah, not worth the energy.

>The big difference for me is that what's actually fun (hard technical problems like e.g. writing an OS kernel, a db engine, a path tracer, an LLM from scratch...) is mentally chal…

You've made a whole lot of assumptions in that reply, all from 10 sentences. Maybe ask some questions next time instead of making assumptions that fit your preconceived notions. Yo…

>Do many people hobby code with that entrepreneur mindset thing? Or sit down to play guitar thinking they want to make a hit and feeling bad if they just noodle some cover songs? I…

This is a half truth. This is what I found. "Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy warned states that they will lose federal funding for roads, bridges and other infrastructure proje…
