I kind of love pichação style. It looked really ugly to me at first, but then grew on me as I saw more of it. It feels alien and cryptic and uncomfortable to me as a Westerner. I u…

In New Orleans (and surrounding areas), we have a large, dusty industry of salvaging old long leaf pine and either reusing it directly or re-milling larger pieces like beams into f…

I just audibly gasped after clicking.

If I were starting over, I would probably push for Google Chat. It was such a chore getting my workmates to switch to Slack from email, that I don't want to disturb the delicate ba…

The novelty of location based games never wore off for me, but the gameplay created by Niantic lost it's charm very quickly. I hope Naiantic's failure will not doom location based …

True. I work with media server playback stuff for live events etc. Back in the day, we only used mpeg2 constant bitrate codec because it allowed us to sync the playback across mult…

Do you think it is because you rarely need to use the brake in a Tesla? My limited experiencing driving one was that simply removing your foot from the accelerator often provides s…

I know you are getting downvoted and a lot of gaff, but I do think you propose an interesting question. I am not sure what is illegal and what is not, but I am confident I support …

It is not as good as it is on Android. I still have an iPhone, but this is the top thing that makes me consider switching back to Android. I will still probably buy another iPhone …

That might be the only solution you can think of, but that does not make it the only possibility. What you are really saying is you don't think New Orleans is worth saving. New Orl…

Our pumps are so old many are still using wooden screws and run on 25 cycle power. Think how much water we could pull out if the system was upgraded? New Orleans is more prepared t…

That is not quite true. The CDC listed several reasons not to wear masks. They definitely mention a shortage of masks and retaining supply for medical personnel, but at the same ti…

I worked there for half a day. Did the training and had just started my job when the manager told me they needed me tomorrow at a store 4 hours away at 6am. I left and never came b…

Robinhood has a free version and a paid version. Both account types are blocked from trading GME, NOK and other securities.

I am a landlord. My rent prices are based on competition, not how much money my tenants make.

They actually stopped using prisoners, but are still only paying $10.25 an hour and work one of the hardest jobs I can imagine. They are basically not allowed to use the lift on th…

In Southeast Asia? Try New Orleans, Louisiana where sanitation workers have been striking to make $15 (they currently make $10.25 with no benefits) and jog along side the truck and…

Not to mention that many variations of UBI proposals specifically exempt the kind of purchases most lower income people make most often. You can easily exempt normal groceries, clo…

In my state of Louisiana, there is a homestead exemption where if the property is your primary residence, you are exempt from a good chunk of property taxes. It doesn't always make…

The layoffs and restructuring in 2015 was to get slimmer for a sale. Guy sold 90% of the company off right after for 1.5 billion. Cirque has been run by bean counters since even be…

Yeah. Mystere prints money, while the newer shows are often in debt for decades.

My understanding is there is actually some risk. If they do the paperwork wrong, or if the regulations change randomly (which they have a bunch of times already), the bank could th…

I think the elective treatment theory is a better point than my driving guess. If you have a disease and your options are to get surgery or take medicine, you are probably being pu…

Less people driving?

Airbnb policy (and the law) forbids putting a camera in private spaces. If you are renting a room in a house that has shared public spaces, the host could put a camera in the kitch…
