    99.99999999999999% of all people take a job for the money. Sure, they may choose job A over job B because of some mission or overall objective, but if job B proposed a 50% higher s…

    It may be lazy, but that doesn't make it any more accurate. Take a writing by someone using the tone of Kevin from The Office, “Me think, why waste time say lot word, when few word…

    I suggest doing this everywhere, not just your phone. On your laptop, disable Teams notifications, remove email notifications, etc... Leave on Meeting notification if you need the …

    My guess is the fraud they are looking for vs the fraud they find will not at all be related. If they find the fraud at all, it will be entirely the current administration at fault…

    I'm not the right person to give feedback here. I'm not in your target market. For me, social features are a negative and I don't want to use an app that makes them center stage or…

    Workout trackers are especially at risk. Every single one I’ve tried is terrible. They are either really poorly thought out, bad UX, or charge 40/mo and still suck. I built a simpl…

    If I found a random comment on this topic on reddit, didn't read the comment, and then just copy pasted it here, would you feel respected? This is the same thing. Stop.

    No elected politician to the American government should be "Israel-first". Anyone stating such should be tried for treason.

    I do know. I do not want to live in a society that is under 24/7 surveillance. Of course, if the cops can watch everything you do all the time, there will be less crime. But that i…

    A few friends and I did this during Covid. We'd do 10 pushups at the top of the hour all day long. Each effort was pretty easy, but overall we'd end up doing 100ish pushups a day. …

    Just opened https://old.reddit.com/ in private Firefox on Windows and did not get a login wall. Able to click into comments and view links. What platform are you using?

    I would argue a nightmare for most. Turning everything into a microtransaction / subscription is destroying what was good about the internet.
