As someone with a similar time in harness in industries that rhyme with that, I feel your pain. While I'd prefer to work, not needing the money implies the ability to avoid the interview process. It's a funny thing…
Looking at the US Constitution, IP law should be designed to heavily encourage innovation. I would think that the actual details of law would reflect that rather than maximizing the value of an idea to it's owner. To be…
>These questions are always asked in bad faith, I'd say not. I'd genuinely like to know if a cloth bandana has any value, if grocery stores are dangerous, is the mass of people actually better off for an early and hard…
>FB is what my racist parents use It looks to me like you've got bigger fish to fry than Facebook. It's probably time to give your parents a break.
I did it for three decades (3.5?) and the only code reviews were with friends of mine who worked at multiple companies together. The whole point of the review was to find outright errors, not to optimize. Scarcely any…
I'd love to talk to the folks that work at the outrage porn outlets. Are they true believers doing whatever it takes? Actually think they print news? Just in it for the money? How honed is the writing and how is that…
>a smart dude works on a problem that saves World War 2 and now powers your phone and your TikTok app. So much for the Polish Cipher Bureau. Not so many tragic hero opportunities there.
While I think that EVs are cool, the subsidies not only distort things but are essentially tax breaks for the well-off. It's funny to me how the whole ICE vs. EV argument just isn't that much of a slam-dunk. Looking at…
But why use the marketplace when you can legislate? Actively managing things is ever so much fun.
I wonder if it wouldn't help if colleges/universities fissioned into more specialized institutions. By building gigantic clumps of education a single approach or philosophy drives too much of the bus. A sample set of…
5) diverse ...and then you've got something. I'm actually surprised that I've never seen a tire with some kind of closed-cell super lightweight foam, some kind of aerogel maybe. I suppose the problem in that case is…
Perhaps it would simpler to encourage some companies to leave those cities (tax policy?) rather than to build/subsidize new housing.
another issue is that changing something, greenhouse gas let's say, is harder on the margin. The first improvements are cheap, the later ones aren't. Looking at an EPA webpage, I see that current per capita US CO2…

I went down the rabbit hole of looking at COVID cases in Scotland, where vaccinations are quite common. It's worth considering all of the numbers here. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-53511877
I absolutely agree. 3..2..1 until someone blames or credits some President or the other or a famous worker strike. Models are particularly comforting when they are so simple as to be useless. Now, back to some work on…

Wow, that's a bummer. It's a pity he didn't have Dick Shawn's timing.
Huh. Brilliant. I would think that the main selling point, besides clean-up issues, is to break some kind of parasite cycle.
Put the logic and profit motive of a slot machine in everyone's pocket. What could go wrong?
I used it in a design. What I remember (it was a while ago) was the lack of OS and driver support from third party software houses. It was a mistake to use it.
