Huge caveat here in that I am not a designer so this is a very amateur take, and I personally like the headlights so I'm quite biased, but I think it's a brilliant design for a cou…

You're likely thinking of Persistent Surveillance Systems: https://www.pss-1.com https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorgon_Stare

It's likely being posted due to recent interest in B&T due to the killing of the UnitedHealthcare CEO in Manhattan. I don't think there is any specific evidence that this is the fi…

I've thought about that myself, and came to the conclusion that in my case the answer will most likely be no. I can't say I'd be too disappointed though, being missed by a handful …

I've been using an MD Notebook A5 Grid with the clear plastic cover, and while I try to treat it gently, I have it in a tote along with a pretty bulky and heavy XPS 17 and it hasn'…

As someone who grew up in the outer sunset where this is also a frequent occurrence, it's surprising to me how so many people engage in such anti social behavior and don't see a pr…

I don't have anything to add aside from the fact that I enjoyed this comment and you should write more, you have talent.

I would always prefer to be laid off vs fired since the latter means it's unlikely I could return to the company in the future.

In addition to RenTech, TGS is another intriguing place that mostly flies under the radar and from all rumors seems to have been fantastically successful over 3 decades. It’d be ve…

Very much appreciate the insight. I don’t have good odds as a formerly homeless high school graduate, then again I wouldn’t have seen myself in my current job 5 years ago, so will …

Don’t mean to hijack this thread but seeing as you have a background in the industry I was hoping you could answer a couple questions I had: 1. What do these firms typically look f…

While the shootout scene is indeed great, the 2 scenes in Heat that I consistently find myself rewatching on YouTube are the diner scene with De Niro and Pacino, and the final scen…

I assume people worth several hundred million dollars won't spend 10%-50% of their total wealth on a $100+ million yacht, but will still pay $1mil/week to rent one on occasion.

I've always thought that TSMC's dominance in fab processes are a strategic asset in the defense of Taiwan against potential PRC encroachment. I would assume that as long as a large…

As someone who suffers from infrequent migraines, I can attest to the fact that they are completely debilitating to me. That seems reason enough. I haven’t had the time to read thi…

The article mentions this Florida company as one of the suppliers of such machines. They have a reasonably informative website. http://www.hillsinc.net

If possible, I'd be interested if you could expand on your point regarding RenTec and TGS hiring from completely different areas of science. Speaking of Edgestream, are there any o…

Without getting into the validity of the gp’s post, RenTec does seem to recruit from NSA/CCR, particularly in the early days. Again, not saying this lends credence to the gp’s post…

Just out of curiosity, are there any successful Princeton/Newport/Thorpe offshoots aside from the usual one in Irvine?

I’d say it’s best role at this point is to continue being one of the preeminent sites for military weapons systems testing, as has been the case for a few decades now. I’m not sure…

I believe this is what SWA, Shipping with Amazon, aims to do.

I'm going to preface this by mentioning that I swam competitively starting at around age 6 through high school, was both a life guard and swim instructor at UCSF's rec center durin…
