Reading this, I was assuming that this behavior was enforced by reference checks for new hires being commonplace. However, the few sources I found in a quick search make it seem like asking/requiring references is a more recent practic

I ran a coding bootcamp school that had both your typical pay-upfront and later added an option like you outline. I can't speak for all programs, but schools use an affiliate third party lender for those "free" loan programs.

In the video someone else posted, it's said that the hydrofoils are independently powered https://youtu.be/Gvkx6oF_Zyk?si=PXTcckfCQzPZYmrR&t=660

Interesting. My first thought was "isn't it wind powered? What are they powering?". Turns out anything below the water line like the hydrofoils are independently battery powered. The cyclists are pedaling to pressurize a hydr

I know it's a little thing that's probably customizable, but I can't see anything in the screenshots except the inconsistent menu bar padding.

I'm no rocket scientist, but to me it makes sense to try and redirect asteroids to enter our atmosphere. The only thing I'd seek to "mine" on the asteroid is H2O, Hydrogen, or something that could be immediately converte

I'm not sure this is true. Most (~80%) large venues are owned and operated by Live Nation, who also owns Ticketmaster. They also have exclusivity agreements with hundreds of others. It's, in effect, a shell operating as a scalper

"you will also receive free updates until such a time Version 3 is released!" This is what stops me. I've experienced too many instances of a full version upgrade with a sunset on previous versions.

I understand and grudgingly accept the risk to the drinking water. My concern is the airborne pollutants (carbon from the generators, expelled gases, VOCs) that are a certainty and how proximity relates - how close is too close.

Ask HN: How close is too close to live to a large fracking operation?

Why the drastically lower effective tax rate? I don't see an increase in operating expenses enough to make that big of an impact and I'd expect the increased income to raise it.

I can relate. Two days ago, I found a perfect match in a niche but complex fintech sector I have experience in as a Engineering Manager and IC. I applied with a tailored resume and cover letter that addressed every single point and desirabl

I'll bet many people were willing to pay that if executives and managers had there kids there. Daycare can provide unique kinds of networking and job-security/promotion options.

The weight check slows the whole process down and I find I have to make sure I grab items with the cart-side hand or the system thinks I am trying to drop the item in the bag without scanning. Worst of all is the receipt check after the pro

Hyperion was awesome. Canterbury Tales-style narrative focused on a group of pilgrims on a crazy planet steeped in legend set against a galaxy-spanning empire that is being threatened by a faceless looming external threat. As if that wasn&#

What if it was still about the weapons - but more about them being sheathed? A right hander will usually have a sword sheathed on their left hip sticking out and down. Maybe it was a safety measure to have the tip not hanging over the inner

Two initiatives I've thought about: 1. Schools receiving state tax dollars must adhere to percentage-based breakdowns of general tuition use. Basically, only x% of general tuition can be spent on administration costs, sports facilities

I wonder if gaming consoles had a big hand in this? Going back to Atari pong in the early/mid 70's and I don't recall if any of the major players (Magnavox, Atari, Coleco, Sears) included anything close to schematics.

Web Dev or Software Engineering? For web, I'd recommend starting with some basic youtube tutorials on building a clone of X. The goal here is not to really learn the concepts, but to learn if you enjoy it. There will be alot alot of le

Half the cars I've owned have been manual - Junker 1977 Corvette and 1999 Miata. I agree with all the points made about connection to car, ease of maintenance, etc. The big decider for me was traffic and general road planning. Living i

Agree with many of the sentiments on here about pricing. I actually came across Rootly a couple months ago when looking for this sort of solution and the lack of transparency on cost led me to immediately dismiss it as an option
