Here is a more balant racism experience I had. On a date night, we sat next to another couple. The guy was really not happy, he started talking just loud enough for us to hear that Trump will round up all Muslims and…
That was my first thought that wine drinkers tend to richer, so live longer. But when I looked deeper, those studies actually controlled for various factors including income and education.
This is not collective punishment. There are already laws where children have to give up inheritance because it was created with illegal activities. There are laws against illegal dumping of dangerous chemicals. It is…
People believe first then look for proofs. I know people who still refuse to believe that the earth is spehere. Especially, when religon is involved they won't even believe their own eyes. Someone actually said that the…
That's what I said. Calorie as a measure sets upper limit of maximum energy you can extract from a given food. If you want to gain 1lb of weight, you will need to eat at least 3500 calories. If you want lose 1lb, you…
No, all calories are same. This is in the domain of physics or chemistry. But of course if you get all your calories from simple carbs, you will be deficient in other important nutrients like vitamins. However,…
Just want to add some more context. When I say she is liberal, she is indeed liberal. Her feed is full of BLM and LGBTQ causes. She has made donations to many of such causes too. She is the nicest person and worries…
Unfortunately, no. My wife's best friend is Hindu from Upper Caste. (Brahim) she was born in the United States. She always been so liberal and open minded. Most of her friends are Muslims. She is barely religious. But…

I really tried to dedicate myself to my day job but I work in a large IT corp where most people are apathetic to their jobs. Even my managers told me to take it easy, And that's when I tried my best to accept the…
Agreed, last few years I have been working in semi-leadership position. At first, I thought I wanted to move to management but it wasn't exactly what I expected. However, my technical skills suffered. I tried to go back…
For last few years, I have been telling myself to take it slow and do what you are doing now. I got a easy but a boring job. I figured this way I will save all my mental energy for my projects after work. But this is…
I stopped buying water filters from Amazon after a few which looked exactly like real thing but tasted funny. Upon very close inspection, there were tiny differences but impossible to notice casually.
Yeah per year. Tbf they also provided a lot of hands on consulting and training too.
One of my client charged $100k+ for their SaaS product. It simply guided clients to setup their IT budgets. They had 10s of customers. The value this software provided was worth it to the right customer.
I love programming but hate to do it in corporations full of red tapes
It is legal but ToS may prohibit it.
In my experience, as a Pakistani who grew up in the middle east and had friends from all over the world in an American college, it is pretty universal to feel pressured to be doing something productive all the time.
I am confused, are you using MomentJS for fancy output like 3 days ago etc or for simple output like 5/31/2020? I can see how it is useful in former case but seems overkill in later case.
Not a whole lot more. I had one job at a small company where I made more than my direct manager.
As a web developer, i am tired of JavaScript and whole web ecosystem and want try desktop or mobile apps. But then I read stuff like this and just cannot imagine building a business where AI or one single outsourced…
I am with you here, it seems perfectly neutral question to me. But this reminds me of a time when I went to movies with some younger family memeber and their friends. After the movie they asked each other if they loved…
I don't think you can make excuses for UberEats or whatever. Food delivery is not a new problem. I have been ordering pizza and Chinese food for more than 2 decades. It is very rare when we received cold pizza. And most…
I use Fi, when it was Project Fi they had great support. Now it is Google Fi and my last interaction with their support was bad enough that I am ready to switch. I would never trust Google with my business.
Maybe in your org people are better communicators. In mine, Slack gets in the way of deep work. Then you turn off notifications and eventually your manager asks you why you are not on Slack. So you end up reading memes,…
