    That’s my understanding as well, that it’s opt-in. That brings me little comfort. I actually love the idea of embedded LLM help. I just wish Google used on-device compute with smal…

    Interesting, didn't know that! Wonder why they don't. My issue here is with wheel events. They look identical for trackpads and mice, so I can't code for different behaviour.

    How is it discrimination if they set the termination date for ALL employees to March 1, 2023?

    Here's a much more salient example: https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1499976967105433600 Musk is clearly pro-Ukraine, but apparently refused to block Russian news sources on Sta…

    I think you're making a mathematical error here. If inflation goes to zero, that does not mean prices have fallen to where they were before. It merely means prices stop increasing …

    Comparing oneself with other people on a single dimension is a bad idea because likely the most extraordinary thing about that other person is what stands out. Said otherwise, it’s…

    The reason for Discord over Slack, BTW is voice & video. Otherwise Slack is working great.

    Discord would be awesome for work ... I want to use it so bad. But the terms of service are completely unpalatable. Discord basically gets a perpetual license to anything you post.…

    IMO a manager needs to make their direct reports and their team successful. But you can start doing that while you're an IC: get in the habit of unblocking people and generally bei…

    Can you elaborate on what you mean by a “duration swap” and “different forms of money”?

    I still think you're strawmanning the essay (and I'm sorry you didn't figure out sooner what you wanted to do with your life - that really sucks!). Bill Gates knew what he really w…

    Your point may be true, but it's not a rebuttal to the parent's assertion that "contagious narratives" are a normal part of many generally accepted systems. It's like you're throwi…

    I think the $40k price tag is deceptive if you look a bit closer. The extended range 300 mile battery is only available on the Platinum edition which starts at $60k IIRC, otherwise…
