  2. Ask HN: How long has it taken for job markets to recover after stock markets do?

    In previous tech boom/bust cycles how long has it taken between the two? Seems we must be getting close to the job market catching up. Next thing that needs to happen I imagine is a major IPO of a tech startup, which…

  3. Ask HN: When will anticipated economic growth lead to life in tech improving?

  4. Ask HN: Is doing tech-related work in the American medical field horrible?

    Everyone I know who works in American medicine says how much they hate it. Be them a doctor, nurse, receptionist, etc., etc. Everyone seems to complain they are overworked to the max and are considering leaving the…

  10. Ask HN: Will Amazon profit here?

    On a whim I bought a $1,100 49" ultra wide curved monitor off Amazon. The minute I put it on my desk I learned two things: 1. This is RIDICULOUSLY large and I'm sending it back. 2. I do want a new monitor, just not one…
