    You can "trade the news" with penny stocks (this is basically just buying when people first start talking about it then selling when more people are talking about it), but like you…

    I don't think it's technically RO but "Zero Water" is absolutely fine, pretty inexpensive, works well! Not as convenient as a $200 (ish) under the sink setup but way more accessibl…

    Sorry, didn't mean to come across like that. What I was trying to express is that no amount of technique can make up for the things I mentioned being bad - and they're easy low han…

    Good is totally up to the person's tastes, anyway. Turbo style shots are the end-all-be-all for a lot of people who enjoy espresso. For other people, they hate it, for a multitude …

    You're spot on, but this coarser, faster-style shot is called the "turbo shot" and you don't actually have to use less coffee, you can actually use more - just compensate your grin…

    I roast coffee professionally, and there's just a few things that will make up 98% of your coffee quality, and none of them have to do with technique. And without these no level of…

    well, at least for really odd ones - like the china example - the liquidity is (probably) going to be really low. you need people buying both sides to make money. But for big event…

    I do think that using graphql will solve a lot of problems for people but it's super surprising how many people absolutely hate it.

    Unfortunately the problem isn't just "the internet sucks" it's "the internet sucks, and everyone uses it" - meaning people are not doing stuff offline, and a lot of our lives requi…

    I don't think many look at wealth inequality in isolation, it's usually accompanied by how people are starving. E.g. "over 20 people die from malnutrition in the US but we have ove…

    what happens when you have two projects using different versions of node, etc? isn't that a massive headache? not that it's great to start with, but it does happen, no?

    They created a market and they are charging to be on the market. If you're saying "I want to be on the market but by my own rules" that's not a free market effect, it's breaking a …
