Now, if we could get the anti-cheat companies on board all would be right in the universe and I could stop pretending that Win10 doesn't drive me insane. Seriously, it's ridiculous that you can play an entire game in Linux with no

I've seen a lot of stuff recently about how LangChain and other frameworks for AI/LLM are terrible and we shouldn't use them and I can't help but think that people are missing the point. If you need strong customization

No buying a house with a personal mortgage requires you to have that house as your primary residence only for 1 year. That's pretty much the core behind the concept of house hacking. Buy, live there for 1 year, move and rent it out, r

I have no real problems being people wanting to work remotely now and forever but I do think this is going to require a new legal framework to support it. For better or worse there are very real tax issues associated with employees working

Yes obviously, that's a problem. But again it's one of policy. There are lots of hard problems. Generally, avoiding hard problems isn't a great solution. Maybe for some things but when the counter is the end of democracy then

I'm not really sure why this is taking on a political slant from commenters here aside from the fact that Obama as a politician is a polarizing figure. The content of what he said is completely accurate and just about any credible rese

This was an easy pivot away from being a runaway success. The founder couldn't figure out who the right customer was and ran out of cash. This is why so many companies are venture backed. It's not that people just want to give awa

Here's the thing though. If you hit me with your car, it doesn't matter whether it was an accident or whether you intended to. You still caused me damage and it's still not crazy for me to hold you accountable. I may have mor

I really hate this narrative that Nadella came in and turned things around. He's absolutely made great decisions since taking the reins but most of his early success was just riding out things that Ballmer set in motion. Not to mention

I think this article misses out on what in my opinion is the biggest reason to go to college for a teen and it all has to do exploration. Simply put you don't know what you don't know and at 17-18 that can be a lot. College gives

The story doesn't really paint any of these people in a good light. The real question in my opinion, which the article does a poor job of addressing is at what point, could Watt have dropped people from the suit without compromising th

This sounds like a really nice idea that is 20 years away from being a horrific disenfranchising one. Owning the land is an important piece of wealth transfer from generation to generation. This reminds me of the situation in NC and other p

I mean people are still working until they can't but that time period is getting longer and longer. Partly out of boredom, partly because retirement is a pipe dream for a lot of people. But the end result is the same, the higher level

A lot of people would argue, imo correctly, that this is just a different form of sexism. The idea that progressing in your career means sacrificing work/life balance and more importantly family could absolutely be construed as the end

The cheating one is actually not as unreasonable as you might think. I would love to see more context around that specific request. Is this a case where people of being accused of cheating because they did well when the professor didn'

I agree, and don't necessarily see anything wrong with the use of 'hey guys', but at the end of the day it's a pretty mild request to take a stand on. I can't imagine being that married to a greeting that I'd r

Yeah I don't think that line of reasoning follows. More scrutiny, is more scrutiny. Especially when you're talking about financial transactions. If I'm looking for A and notice that thing B is illegal I'm not going to no

The only issue I have with the letter is the spurious inclusion of CP. It has little to do with the substance of the matter. But overall this is a pretty fair letter. As a fact, FB has shifted the focus from themselves as a platform provide

Because most people don't work in silos that allow them to operate with impunity. I'd assume at a company the size of google any feature is going to have minimum of 3-4 different sets of eyes on it between Engineering, QA, UX, and

Ok how about imagine that friend was stalker. Someone potentially dangerous to me and those around me. They know we live in the same building so yes in that case it would make perfectly sense that I could compel you not to give away your ad
