From reading about this and Ozempic it appears the main functionality is reducing appetite / blood sugar spikes which results in weight loss. I am curious for those who are using it who have traditionally had a…
I don't have any discussion on the LLM factor of this conversation, but I'll weigh in on cover letters. As a hiring manager running a fully remote team with medium-low on the pay scale, I can tell you that any open…
I feel like I watch both threads casually every first of the month, and nothing felt weird or different about this one to me. I haven't ever kept track of total posts, more of the ratio between who wants to be hired…
One big difference between life in 1719 and today is the pervasive feeling that humanity is somehow bad or immoral and that the sustainability of the lives that we live are precarious. The combination of the internet,…
I see a lot of this argument when social media is brought up. A lot of people generally agree with the idea that there are a lot more supportive environments available on the web than in a traditional small town with…
I've read almost every one of these interesting articles that have come up on this site over the past year or two regarding teenage depression. My own step kids are morbidly depressed, with my step daughter of 14 having…
Very in depth article but the short of it is that there will be colder than usual weather across northeast usa and Canada as well as slightly colder than usual in Northwest Europe. This will occur most likely in March.

Which is exactly why they are A waste of time. I have yet to meet a developer that doesn't have an idea for a notes/calendar/organizational tool. The point is that organization is such an individual problem that it…
I don't know what service you're talking about (truecar?) But carvana is basically online CarMax
Are you discounting the absolutely massive gaming industry? I have never met a single person in real life that uses Linux, and those that used Macs were only casual computer users
The thing I fail to understand about socialism and government as a form of alternative to corporations is this: Corporations are groups of people focused on a given goal. Your solution to a group of people making what…
Small world! I started using hevy in 2020 to track weights and haven't used anything else since. By the way somehow the timer noise always makes me jump.
I have lived in Austin for 10 years and Dallas for 20, and I think Dallas is in every way better than Austin. Less expensive More things to do Real airport with good fares Better weather, not as hot in the summer time…
Another concerning thing I've noticed is the ease in which some aspect of a person, such as if they are hesitant about getting the new vaccine, are tied to this group of other personality traits, such as anti-science,…
I have yet to see any convincing case of someone who has the wealth to afford a computer, internet, and time to spend on Twitter whose "lives are threatened", and no hyperbole causes a larger eye roll from me.
I have seen a lot of your comments and articles over the past few months. I don't presume to put myself in your shoes, but my wife works in software engineering, and I work with several other women or wives of friends…
Isn't the whole point of things like this to help edge cases? I grew up poor and did badly in school, but I was smart enough to score in the top 3% of SAT scores and that allowed me to get in to many colleges that I…
