Reads like it's straight out of The Onion.
>My productive output as a programmer in software and business have expanded 3x compounding monthly. In what units?
Try talking to white collar workers outside your bubble. Better yet get a job.
My sense is there's a long queue of candidates for the NYC and Boston offices stuck without a team match.
How is a $25 life saving medication "too cheap"? That's 1/10 of the out-of-pocket maximum per year in Norway or Sweden. Which by the way covers all of medical visits, hospital stays, prescriptions.
This would be discussed in an introduction to soil mechanics and foundation design (Braja Das's textbooks used to be the standard reference in the US when I was a student 15+ years ago) but I'm afraid they're too dry…
The ability of a dry stack retaining wall to shift and breathe is a feature, not a bug. For stone walls that require added reinforcement against lateral loads, look into tiebacks or geogrid reinforcement.
Right on. Craftsman tools have been frowned upon at least for the last 20 years. Milwaukee sawzalls are legendary.
+1 to no labor shortage in the construction industry. Good luck getting trained as a tradesman outside the unions. Joining a union is a practical impossibility if you're a white male. You'll be subsidizing your…
Sucralose (Splenda) increases insulin resistance.
I can trace some drastic changes in my own life's trajectory to this book. Baxandall treats a familiar subject in starkly unfamiliar terms. Putting it in context but not making it any more relatable as it would be in a…

I've been going over Touretzky's Common Lisp book [1] with a 10-year old. [1] https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/LispBook/book.pdf
I'm not familiar with Stuyvesant, TJHSST and the like. The best Russian schools follow the Konstantinov [1] tradition of "listki" (handouts), where each student is essentially guided to re-invent the math curriculum by…
Is this a sign of a forthcoming job market collapse? I don't remember anything similar during the previous recession.
fwiw this describes my experience of interviewing at Databricks
To its credit, Twitter has been doing this for some time now.
Most comments seem to quibble about exact numbers. That the number of people let go is comparable is enough to give you a pause.
Could be used to generate building plans or other schematics (pretty sure of no use though). Could certainly be put to good use generating pornographic images.
I don't know about what's in America's favor. I know for a fact that I would not willingly compete with all software developers in a global marketplace. I'd lose my big4 job in a split second. Canada's tech sector may…
By way of a thought experiment: If all human beings are equal, is this a necessary and sufficient condition to let a homeless person stay with you for a night? Assuming this is an option for a relative or friend. Why…

Don't have experience with most of the industries that Musk dabbles in, but did spend a decade in construction. I have no doubt in my mind that Musk's roofing and tunneling ventures are sham.

Curious, how did you reconcile your peripatetic lifestyle with having children? Schooling and making friends would seem to be a challenge?
