Suburbs can be, see suburbs built pre-WWII which typically had a train line connecting them to the nearby city industrial center which was used for daily commuting of workers who walked or biked to the station.
Based off the market rate for chanterelles my harvest this year would have cost several thousand dollars had I merely bought them from the grocer.
Conversely if you do attempt to do a deeper dive into the design and architecture choices my experience has been you end up getting push back and overruled -- because people are busy and don't want to miss a deadline…
I've been doing remote work for... 8-9 years or so now. I'd say there are far _less_ phone calls as a remote employee than in office because there is an expectation in my remote employment that work is conducted…
No? I guess my anecdotal experience with owning laptops from the early 2000s to today. An early 2000s laptop I expected to last between 18-24 months before it was shot. I don't think anyone made it through my college on…
I'm amazed that we consider same day, and not sub-second to be an improvement in an electronic system these days.
Yes. Pretty much a club house, pub, community center whose membership consisted of veterans. The suburb was built within a decade of the end of WWII and during the Korean war. So it was a safe bet that most households…
Pockets of commerce is the thing that is totally gone from suburbia. I went back to the Cleveland suburbs for a grandparent's funeral several years back and I could definitely see how in the 1950s the structure of the…
As someone who does PHP back-end work every day --- the lack of enums is probably my #1 complaint with PHP as a language these days and I probably find myself wishing I had access to them at least once a week.
I switched to ft work from home years ago. Where is my home office (I guess people are calling them "home labs" these days) going to be has probably always been my top concern since my first apartment and long before I…
Might I ask what line of work you're in that 100mb+ would be a limiting factor? I ask because I've been doing remote work web development for 9 years now on a 10mb DSL line, and honestly haven't really seen much any…
Just because there's no public facing service sitting on a domain doesn't mean that domain isn't in use. I have a domain whose only public facing service is just some picture I took. Am I using that domain? Yes, sure.…
This was my experience. I'm seven years into remote working and I spent the first half absolutely fighting to force myself into a 9-5. I did all the habits that everyone typically recommends here. Separate office,…
I know several employers who hire remote, and it isn't a Bay Area thing -- they won't employ anyone in the state of the CA, for the same reasons they won't employ international employees -- they see CA legislation as…
Why enforce the second factor authentication? The main reason that I wouldn’t want to be using an email address is because I want the account to be disposable. Just make it that if I don’t have a second factor for…
Except when management finally wises up and realizes the product has no future... neither do you. Much better to look around and find the product/project that is actually going to spawn revenue for the company and get…
Skunk traps and cat food. If cat's get into my traps, they just get dumped at the pound. Their owners can go pick up their little invasive darlings there. But they usually don't get near my yard due to the hounds…
Nope. Already worked from home. Didn't really go out in public much before the pandemic, other than a biweekly grocery run. I can make a better meal, spiced to my particular tastes better than any restaurant. I have…
I collect role-playing campaign settings for this very reason. I love just reading through long geographies of made up worlds. Pouring over the maps. Imagining the geopolitical landscapes or how the alternative…
When I've seen a U.S. company "hire" an engineer outside of the country, they tend to end up having to do it as a contractor instead of as a FT Employee. When I see "Remote: Only US," there's a high chance they're not…
> WhatsApp employee would have leaked it on HN already Employees don't need to be aware of the backdoor if they aren't the one's listening. At least, I assume Whatsapp is already compromised by some state actor and…
I've started noticing people call a game "AA" lately to distinguish a big-budget independently produced game from big-budget titles coming from traditional publishers. Not sure if that one will take off or not...
One item that is often overlooked that I wished more remote team mates would do: Get a business line for your internet connection or better yet, get a second line and use it only for work so you can segment your network…
I know a of relatives who only buy hardbacks -- even if all they're reading is one-read genre stuff. Myself, I tend to buy paperback, read and then donate. If the book was good and I want to keep it for my personal…
$170 million, at the maximum penalty only covers around 4,000 violations. I seriously doubt that Youtube violated this rule only a mere 4,000 times.
