It kinda depends on the candidate. Someone who already has experience may not stick around long because they aren't learning new skills, where as someone who isn't familiar with a …

> There isn't more news now than 100 years ago, so how do you feel all that time and how do you keep someone engaged? So, I agree with your point, and I also agree that there isn't…

I think mostly just the iPhone exploded it, and also made a lot of things much more low effort. Like take for example people constantly posting photos of themselves and food and wh…

If Republicans are voting against it too they are also to blame though? If some Republicans would vote for it then it could pass. I'm an Australian so maybe there is nuance here I'…

I mean arguably subsidizing med school would be a pretty sensible thing for a government to do if it wanted to increase the number of doctors. The other elements of the venn diagra…

Eh. The problem is that people can change software too easily. Say I work on an app as a major contributor and then later on a colleague makes an update to it which makes it do som…

I do think it is kind of crazy when I am out late in the city and still see lots of lights on in office towers everywhere. I refuse to believe that many of them are actually occupi…

I'm straight, I definitely don't think this is at all healthy. If you don't trust your spouse to live their life as best they can with your best interests at heart, let alone just …
