I would like to pose an alternative conclusion: if you aren’t bored by web development you likely haven’t discovered far more interesting opportunities. Web development deals with mostly solved problems and best…
My main problem with programming interviews is that I can’t use external references to do them, which is totally not how I work. Even if I know how to solve something off the top of my head, I generally do a search to…
I know a cybersecurity professional who was contracted by a hedgefund to investigate the claims by reverse engineering and present a report so it’s not entirely unlikely.
Because if you live in the first world, like most of these companies, you will feel the effects of climate change the least. Climate change is a bigger problem for developing nations with birth rates way too high and…
> Better times than ours. Not sure why it’s necessary to make a slight against our times? Even Osama Bin Laden was given a proper burial at sea, and he wasn’t even a soldier, he was a damn criminal. We didn’t even use…
For those who do not see the danger of advanced AI generated text being rolled out everywhere, imagine a web where you have to carefully read everything you see in order to determine if it’s written by a human before…
So what?
Men and women tend to be happier in arranged marriages. It is one of the best ways to find a high quality mate quickly.
No, civilization is not becoming inhospitable to humans, this is literally the best time in history to be alive, civilization has never been more hospitable than it is today. We really do not need more humans, we are…
No, it isn’t. And I’ve said this before, a 45 year old has a grip on life that an early 20 something can’t even conceive of, especially if they’ve just lived a fairly easy life sailing through school and college thus…
Research in pharma is expensive, you can easily spend billions and have nothing to show for it. Where else do you think all that money comes from?
Logically maybe we shouldn’t, but humans aren’t known for doing everything logically. If you know someone is in trouble and you have the ability to rescue them it is human nature to do it, no matter the cost.
> The US public has been subsidizing pharmaceutical research for the entire world with these inflated prices and hopefully that changes soon. This is what some people refuse to acknowledge when they mock the US for…
12% is not that low, but hardly weeks worth of energy needs.
What if you are low on fat stores?
I stopped doing fasts because even though I did notice a boost to my productivity, most of it was due to not having to stop in the middle of the day to eat or waste time thinking about eating. In terms of cognitive…
Indeed, as housing becomes prohibitively expensive everywhere that people want to live in the US, I doubt someone living off basic income will even be able to afford any kind of home. If however, we had government built…
They can still do those things, but basic income isn’t something for you to be taking risks with, it’s the income you need to live, and should be spent as such. Anything else is irresponsible.
> I believe people know and should have control of how they spend a basic income. Why? If it’s not being spent on those things anyway isn’t the person just making a financial mistake?
Not really, all property is still owned by the individuals exclusively.
Have any proponents of Basic Income policies ever proposed instead of handing out money, we hand out tangible assets instead? A basic house, clothing, food, access to education and healthcare (and maybe some…
This is what the Brazilian people asked for. And I’m willing to bet if anyone who disagrees spends some time living in the hard areas of Brazil, they will agree with it too. In the short term, “judge, jury and…
I think there’s a clear difference between “poor guy in the wrong place at the wrong time” and gang members dealing drugs and toting firearms.
Probably should replace the word “people” in the title with “criminals” to be more specific, and less click-baity.
It may not always pass. Sometimes you get DPDR and you’re trapped in an endless hell from which few escape. Be careful out there.
