What do you mean you don't hunt and kill your own food and grow your own grain? Businesses should absolutely have the right to not let you use their services for any arbitrary reas…

To anyone who is seriously considering paying $250 an hour for someone who isn't guaranteeing they will deliver anything-- I will personally quit my job and sign a contract with yo…

Yet again people downvoting the truth.

I completely agree, that is totally a nasty risk vector! Fortunately I am a Boeing shareholder at $139.xx per share, so any measure to cut costs and reduce bureaucracy is welcome i…

Objectively, this is true. Whether the intent is to actually have a conference or not, the real outcome is that employees are A) in a different location and B) the trip is written …

It would be very unfair for Boeing to offer 1 week per year served if you leave voluntarily, and then revoke that payment if they forcibly lay you off. At $OLD_TECH_CORPORATION_MAK…

I am for a UBI. I think it should replace bureaucracy generated by all these alphabet agencies. Funding sources can all be explored. If we dont do this, surely robots will replace …

I was typing out a really long response to you with many if...then statements, but then I realized there are too many powerful agencies and institutions that don't want to give up …

"A hypothesis that if one touches their face, they are more likely to smell themselves as well" is an infinitely clearer title, in my opinion. If your goal is for only 5 people to …

I am a native English speaker who graduated with a 3.8 GPA in History from a world Top 30 university. I still had to use a dictionary to understand what "subserves" means in this c…

Lots of people use Jira for non programming related things. One of the guys who works at Jira used it to assign tasks to the family for preparation of thanksgiving dinner :)

Dont worry, Valve's official statement is that everything is fine and this was already leaked and patched in 2017 :)

Reverse engineer everything that is worth reverse engineering! :)

Only do something for 1 minute, focusing as hard as you can. Then take a break. Then try for 2 minutes. Then take a break. Repeat until you can focus for a long time :)

With regard to 2), if that's indeed how VC works, then YC just needs to fund every company. There's no need to do vetting if you are guaranteed to fund the next FB and the earnings…

I completely agree. But I am curious as to why the economy only allows a certain number of winners. As in, why do 90% fail? Additionally, if you fund 100% of companies equally, if …

``` “In addition, processing hundreds of follow-on rounds per year has created significant operational complexities for YC that we did not anticipate. Said simply, investing in eve…

I was in Sun's Hardware division if that makes it any more or less satisfying for you ^.^ I ain't neva sold a database license in my life!

Likewise at Oracle. Over 250k taken from me over the years. On the screen one day and off it the next.

For my specific workflow, Notepad++ and UnrealEd. Mastering bsp is a really fun skill to have and for the most part UnrealEd is intuitive with some practice.

There cannot simultaneously be a surplus of COBOL developers and a shortage of COBOL developers. Well, supposedly there could be one in the Midwest and one in NJ, but theoretically…

>immediately cough into their hand, touch door knob, then someone else touches door knob and then their face Ah yes so the single men's bathroom at my office of 250 people!

It sounds like it's just a way for the Navy to blow taxpayer money. Look at how our government managed a virus. Now imagine WW3.

Are the same pieces of meat involved? Lots of grocery store meat that you buy "fresh" was killed x number of days ago. If a dog eats raw meat within a few hours of it being killed,…

Not exactly, if they just so happen to be spending a lot of money on purchases of ad-space, or advertising services. For example, just one marketing VP with a salary of $120,000 co…
