    For the most part I agree with this, over engineered feature creep is really just horrible stuff. I never need a fridge with wifi and I absolutely swear that that anything more tha…

    I've been doing this kind of thing for years with two notable differences: 1. I don't believe people actually hand type-in these values, so I'm not really concerned about the 'l' v…

    Its certainly not a solution looking for a problem. Its a great way to deal with a number of minor daily tasks. Checking the time, setting timers, checking the weather/AQI, playing…

    Kudos to them for shipping a product. I looked into them a few weeks ago because I am tired of the "Did you know.." and "Can I add that to your cart?" from Alexa. When I saw the de…

    The short answer is that you can't. The longer answer is that maintaining your current standard of living is not something you can do. You would need to make some sacrifices to get…

    I don't know about your situation but I can say that sometimes its not even technical. For example we had one junior role where we got down to 3 great candidates (from 300 resumes)…
