You don't see it in iMac marketing photos, either, where the screen is illuminated.
I am underweight by about 10 - 20lbs and I have a lot of trouble reconciling some of the advice around healthy eating with my attempts to gain weight. It seems all but impossible for me to gain weight without heavy…

There's a couple of issues that stand out to me: Github is engaging in risky behaviour by reaching out to individuals (specifically activists) for hire explicitly on the basis of "diversity" and trying to incorporate…
I do not find your language or "phrasing" to be particularly warm, but I don't think it precludes us having a productive discussion on the matter. Your statement of me "wanting flamewars" is inappropriate if not just…
Seems an understatement to simply describe the current political climate as an increase in "intensity". I think a mentally ill President on the verge of impeachment and a country on the verge of constitutional crisis is…
I'm not particularly fond of political discussion on HN, but this particularly political environment is so insane that it ought to be discussed in more and more places. And I am keen on hearing the perspective of HN…
Because iPads are generally limited to basic computing tasks, I think the lifecycle is even longer than a typical laptop. My iPad Air from 2013 still feels brand new to me. Still looks great and I'm sure will still be…
I think the most striking thing about burnout is that, in my experience, it actually takes time to recover from it. Like a wound that requires healing. It wasn't a situation where you simply remove a stressor and…

Yes, it would be a bummer if you think you are getting $100K. But I'm hoping that people who are competent with their savings have some understanding of inflation's effects on their savings.
I agree with you completely. I view my current income as almost irrelevant when it comes to determining how much of a retirement nest egg I need to have. My approach is to actually contemplate what retirement looks like…
Wouldn't it be more like $60K?
The $3.56/bottle you see on their website when switched to Canada as your location is not CAD, It's USD. I just ordered a 12 pack at $3.75 a bottle ($45/case - the price shown when you're not subscribing) and was…
I didn't mean to suggest that you specifically were brushing anything off; it was more of a general statement. Sorry about that. What are other contingency plans that can be put in place?
I also have a years' worth of living expenses saved, and it also took me about 3 years to build. It has zero impact on my stress level at work. I don't think I feel any more free to leave than if I only had a months…
Count me in too.
