they've started to get a big bulge on the top-left of the device and no longer sit flat on a table. Oh and they popularized silicon cases that dont go in or out of pockets.
You said "you can't" (live in the bay, anymore, on less than 200k). The bay is bigger than SF.
You're moving the goalposts here now to make it seem like the baseline-acceptable lifestyle for someone in the Bay is to live directly in San Francisco and have a short commute in a desirable area with adequate space.…
Looking at Zillow, there are 64 2-bedroom apartments in SF alone for <= $4k. If you expand your search out of the city the number becomes much higher...
A 200k salary is what... 13k net? You're telling me that income is just surviving in the Bay Area?
So the solution to convince the public that these companies aren’t “looking for new ways to screw them over” is to try to go into biomedical research. I guess it’ll be great for Anthropic to have the cure for cancer,…
my point is, in germany it takes longer than a test to get your license, unlike the US.
45 minutes? In Germany getting your license takes most people around a year and costs thousands of euros.
> What action can Iran take today that they couldn’t take a year ago? Remove of sanctions, ability to monitize traffic through the strait, guarantees against aggression and a cessation of military bases in their region.…
Every cost is disconnected from the value it generates. Do you pay the price for gasoline, electricity, or food based on the value it provides you?
Wasn't this always the idea behind combating inflation? At the end of the day you need to make people poorer to make the dollar worth more...
Streetview is such an incredible product - one of the few digital products that still manages to bring me joy every day. it'll be a shame when it's inevitably enshitified.
He says: 1. Strong data governance 2. Tax implications for layoffs (offshoring?)
Wealth doesn't go straight up, it bubbles up. And thinking about bubbles, imagine what happens when the GenAI one pops. The wealth some new billionaires had will go up in smoke, their assets will go on sale, and they'll…
> Then the next question is why does wealth, in practically all industrious countries seem to distribute disproportionally and not uniformly? It's simply because money is compoundable. The more money you have the more…
You could argue that the world is way more globalized today.
You're just saying this because you're American and accustomed to it. To you, a 0-100 scale makes sense but to me it doesn't because 0f (-17c) is way rarer of a temp than 100f (38c). Anyway, from the metric perspective,…
It doesn’t make sense to base your car purchase on hypotheticals like this. As it stands right now, costs plus infrastructure make electric cars less desirable to own, and that’s why if you drive around Germany, you’ll…
Electric cars in general don’t really make much sense in Germany. Most people live in apartments without access to personal chargers, combined with high electricity cost you end up not even saving money for the…
you only think that because a bunch of roads were constructed for cars
> globally speaking What if instead of comparing people in, say America to people in South Sudan, you compare people in America to people in America.
It's all about picking the right tools for the job. The "cognitive load" might be larger in a vanilla project compared to React when your interface is more complex and interactive.
If the author doesn't want to work with NPM and the JavaScript ecosystem he could just get a job writing Spring/Boot, which makes up probably 90% of the jobs at large enterprise companies. I don't agree that this world…
Agriculture produces food... it feels silly to compare the two.
I think if someone forfeits stability for money then that's their choice. I personally think that's an extremely strange one to make, but I'm one of those people who left the US for more stability, safety, so maybe I'm…
