Huge caveat here in that I am not a designer so this is a very amateur take, and I personally like the headlights so I'm quite biased, but I think it's a brilliant design for a couple of reasons: 1. Without having a traditional fr

It's likely being posted due to recent interest in B&T due to the killing of the UnitedHealthcare CEO in Manhattan. I don't think there is any specific evidence that this is the firearm which was used but there is lots of onli

I've thought about that myself, and came to the conclusion that in my case the answer will most likely be no. I can't say I'd be too disappointed though, being missed by a handful of friends and family would already signal a

I've been using an MD Notebook A5 Grid with the clear plastic cover, and while I try to treat it gently, I have it in a tote along with a pretty bulky and heavy XPS 17 and it hasn't gotten damaged yet. I love that little notebook

As someone who grew up in the outer sunset where this is also a frequent occurrence, it's surprising to me how so many people engage in such anti social behavior and don't see a problem with it. If $1300 per year in SFMTA tickets

I don't have anything to add aside from the fact that I enjoyed this comment and you should write more, you have talent.

In addition to RenTech, TGS is another intriguing place that mostly flies under the radar and from all rumors seems to have been fantastically successful over 3 decades. It’d be very interesting to hear about other less known firms with ste

Very much appreciate the insight. I don’t have good odds as a formerly homeless high school graduate, then again I wouldn’t have seen myself in my current job 5 years ago, so will most likely give it a try anyway.

Don’t mean to hijack this thread but seeing as you have a background in the industry I was hoping you could answer a couple questions I had: 1. What do these firms typically look for in support staff? I’m asking about non trading/quant

While the shootout scene is indeed great, the 2 scenes in Heat that I consistently find myself rewatching on YouTube are the diner scene with De Niro and Pacino, and the final scene in the fields beyond the runways at LAX. The sound and lig

I assume people worth several hundred million dollars won't spend 10%-50% of their total wealth on a $100+ million yacht, but will still pay $1mil/week to rent one on occasion.

I've always thought that TSMC's dominance in fab processes are a strategic asset in the defense of Taiwan against potential PRC encroachment. I would assume that as long as a large part of the global tech industry relies on TSMC,

As someone who suffers from infrequent migraines, I can attest to the fact that they are completely debilitating to me. That seems reason enough. I haven’t had the time to read this particular story but a recent one I did read claimed that

If possible, I'd be interested if you could expand on your point regarding RenTec and TGS hiring from completely different areas of science. Speaking of Edgestream, are there any other successful funds started by RenTec alum? I know of

Without getting into the validity of the gp’s post, RenTec does seem to recruit from NSA/CCR, particularly in the early days. Again, not saying this lends credence to the gp’s post, just adding an interesting bit of info.

I’d say it’s best role at this point is to continue being one of the preeminent sites for military weapons systems testing, as has been the case for a few decades now. I’m not sure what would lead you to conclude a gift shop would be of bet
