I've got a startup and want to start things off right with good CI, CD, etc. It's a really standard stack with React front end and Python (FastApi) backend. I'm wondering what opti…

In the past I thought titles were silly little trinkets for the ego (still do for the most part), but have learned that they can be important in terms of establishing credibility w…

Ugh. I while back I switched all my gcal events which emailed me to reminders. Now I have to change them all back again.

Check about:support and look for a number higher than 0 in the "Multiprocess Windows" entry. Old extensions or something may be keeping you from running multi-process.

Multiprocessing did nothing for me, since I apparently hadn't configured it to use more than one process. Some extensions I had were keeping it from doing so. Once I got all that s…

Yup, this doesn't contain any quotes from well placed sources or anything like that nor delivers any new information about, say, Meg Whitman's candidacy. Totally devoid of merit.

I guess you just must have been momentarily distracted when you reached the part in the article in which she explicitly states why: "While gender of a leader should not matter to d…

You should maybe check out who @zeynep is before you suggest she knows nothing about this subject.

Don't know why you're being down voted. I immediately thought the same thing. I'm all for CEO's being held accountable for these types of things, but it doesn't seem to happen very…

It's about time. I'm not willing to put in the time to attempt to enlighten some guy on the internet who's claims imply that he considers himself considerably more intelligent than…

Pick one: 1. There's something you missed along the way and thus you fail to appreciate the complexity of the issues. 2. You're considerably more intelligent than the hundreds of t…

This is one of those moments when you sigh and don't bother. If you've done an undergrad in philosophy and still don't think there are parts which aren't very sophisticated and dif…

You know how, when your opinionated uncle reads a very high level description of some tech thing you know a lot about and then tells you how it will or won't work, you kind of sigh…

If you think Plato is cool with the 'but that's just you're opinion' defense, I'd suggest a reread.

In broad strokes, what could they do? What technological solutions are there? How much of it would involve human review?

Controlling a community very rarely works. Best thing, IMHO, is to embrace the market, as it were, and assume something will come along to fill the space once occupied by the thing…

You seriously can't dustinguish between his writing and that of in the New Yorker?

Yeah, so presumptuous of the architect to assume he'd want a kitchen. I'll bet this architect also dared to assume he'd want a toilet.

The founder of Soylent clearly believes he's an expert in many, many fields: http://robrhinehart.com/?p=1331 BTW, anyone know a good word for this attitude? I wouldn't call it hybr…

You don't understand the concept of sample size.

You can do better by diversifying more. By picking asset classes with a low correlation, you can reduce risk while increasing return. Hence, you can eek our more from a simple mix …

Right, which is why for people who are comfortable working out asset allocation, rebalancing, and TLH for themselves I recommend they do it themselves with low cost index funds.

Oh, and I tax loss harvest at the end of the year if any funds are down for the year by the end of December. Again, this is maybe 10 minutes per fund. 5 minutes for selling a fund,…

I don't know for sure, but I'm pretty sure Schwab and Vanguard don't tax loss harvest.

It's a thought experiment.
