This reminds me of my idea to replace EBT with unlimited amounts of soylent
Well, they did just spend an enormous amount on building a new tower on Park Ave.
The meals are pricey, no doubt, but the app is where the real value is. In NYC, I’ve scored insanely cheap deals—last week I got 10 chicken nuggets for $1. Right now, I’ve got a 50¢ double cheeseburger offer staring me…

Wind power is generally higher at night.
In theory it sounds great, but try interviewing with companies and see their reaction when you tell them you can't start for > 6 months.
The study is from NASA: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/es3051197?source=cen&
Sure, like Fukushima, which is rare, and had a single death?
Nice, now I can visualize how much more I'm paying after the shutdown of Indian Point nuclear plant in favor of expensive fossil fuels.
Just curious, has anyone ever had a candidate actually fail FizzBuzz in front of them? I think the original statement was something like 90% of candidates can't do it. In my experience, every single candidate I have…
I always thought a significant benefit of being a teacher is receiving a pension, summers off, government benefits, not necessarily pay. https://www.aei.org/articles/no-teachers-are-not-underpaid/
If the childhood mortality risk associated with Covid is comparable to the flu (which seems to be the case) why weren't we masking every child before Covid?
> Their choice to not be vaccinated or wear masks results in people we love dying. It's hard to see how vaccines stop the spread when places like NYC or Israel (some of the most vaccinated places in the world) had…
My 5X died in my pocket before a year of usage. Just died and wouldn't turn on. I called support and they said to ship it out, and I would have a new one in about a week. Never mind 1) phones shouldn't just randomly…
Crude analysis of gender pay gap. What is the difference in experience level, hours worked, industry, etc.? Pay gap "headed in the wrong direction" could easily be more women entering the field at a junior level, which…
I have lived in NYC for 10+ years and I can't say I've had a single encounter with the police.
Actually, a recent study showed there is a "U" shaped curve where the least educated and the most highly educated are the most vaccine hesitant. https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.07.20.21260795v...
I can't help but listen to the terminator theme song in my head while watching these ala https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCeb5DfENaY
Actually, I think if anything, when you make "Google" money, the stakes become a lot higher. Taxes are easy enough to ignore when the base amount is low.
COVID cases are up 600% from 3 months ago!
"Florida did a very poor job with Covid" - care to elaborate? Death rate per capita: Florida: 110 Population: 21.5 million New York: 206 Population: 19.4 million
This quote stood out for me as well, for the reason that my own depiction of a "good coder" has evolved into someone who codes a solution in the simplest way possible using the best tools, not the "hardest" or most…
I once used Google Maps on a Greek island and it told us a path that led to a dead end on a narrowing gravel road.
The top 1% of earners pay 40% of New York City's income tax. The real question is how will NYC cope with the decreased tax base.
I live in NYC and renting a car, either with a car rental agency or via ZipCar is an utter shitshow. With ZipCar, the cars are usually either (1) changed last minute to a different garage, (2) have mechanical issues (I…
