I'd love to see data on RTO mandates vs real estate lease/own status. For companies that own, Low occupancy = asset write downs = higher cost of capital.

Pop culture is weird. Click bait becomes engrained in the zeitgeist. Nothing new about doing the bare minimum to get paid at a job while quietly searching for a new job.

The end of my career is uncertain. My entire career has been uncertain. Not completely unplanned, but rather has progressed in ways I could never have predicted. I had luck and opp…

I am used to the term "thinking out loud." Isn't talking always "out loud?" Which is the correct usage of the term?

I see 2 way to do this. A company (and PM) sees demand for the feature and they include it, ot it is forced by regulation. A lot of these companies that originally had open standar…

What was your parents' reaction when you quit drinking? Congrats on being in recovery. 400+ days myself. Also drank a lot in college but didn't have parents pressuring me. They loo…

Racing games seem to be a niche that makes sense. The tech will keep shrinking and the cost will come down. We are still in the early adopter phase.

No more morse code on the exam. Hamstudy.org is a great study aid.

That's a good point. Hardware + software seems a lot harder than just software too.

Chances are there is OSS already running in commercially available vehicles. Owners tinkering with ICE vehicles was and is a thing and I don't see how an electric power train makes…

Are there any viable open source electric vehicle initiatives out there yet?

Without the truth, a vision is a hallucination. It saddens me how easily someone with money and influence can elevate themselves to a quasi religious figure. In reality, this visio…

I have studied radio comms at a hobby level and learned that the voltage of a close lightning strike isn't the main danger to equipment, it's also the strong surge of EMI that can …
