I thought a lot of trailer parks wouldn't allow something that wasn't built by a certified builder?

There's a lot of sanity saving aspects of living in a tiny house versus a travel trailer. However a lot of people would in fact be better served living in a fifth wheel trailer, both in terms of space, cost, time investment, and abilit

I'm a life long Windows user and fan and I recently bought a Macbook Air and love it. It's so much better than the $1800 windows laptop I've had for the past two years. Granted the windows laptop is for gaming and they'r

Zuck is an awful looking fellow. He barely looks human.

Part of the reason I find Musk endearing (I know, controversial opinion in these parts) is that he doesn't come across as fake. Every time I hear a different CEO give a speech I think to myself how many speech classes they've take

I spend too much time on HN because my first thought in seeing these was to add more randomness and unique features to the point that the probability of getting an exact donut replica on a page load was near 0

I think you're underbilling yourself by self describing as junior. You have enough experience that I think it's reasonable your next role won't be labeled junior. Regardless there's not much benefit to self describing th

I also just avoid driving at night these days. Even on road trips I deliberately start at sunrise and end at sunset. Among the reasons is awful headlights. I don't drive at night unless I have to.

It matters that we recognize patterns of unaccountability and lazy leadership. The issues with the presidency are much larger than Trump and if we ignore that it will keep happening.

This exactly. Barriers will be removed once society makes real steps towards correcting hundreds (or thousands) of years of systemic racism that has impoverished families of color. Those barriers are not going anywhere anytime soon unfortun

These unfortunately have absolutely awful reviews everywhere. It's impressive it's lasted as long as it had for him. I believe the manufacturer stopped making these because they suck so bad. They also aren't designed to be se

Yes but the issue is power consumption. The idea is to run the AC off solar and batteries which is why the rooftop option doesn't work either - they use a buttload of energy. The AC systems in vehicles consume a ton of power to operate

A lot of camper vans do this - it just looks awful, destroys any stealth value, has to be moved in and out of the opening any time you start driving, and takes up a ton of internal room when not deployed.

It's well within the rights of the president to negotiate these matters, and congress has increasingly over the decades encouraged it: https://fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/R44707.pdf

I'm in a busy city so I don't think I will have a Starlink option, but I'd gladly pay twice as much to fund this than keep paying money to our evil overlord Comcast.

Good to hear, and I'm glad to leave the refrigerant stuff to the professionals.

I have spent a LOT of time researching using a small window AC unit converted to work in a camper van without cutting a giant hole in a wall. There's a fellow on Youtube[1] that did this successfully, and he's the only known examp

If a mock interview averages 30 minutes from start to end, including the time to get on the call and take notes and give feedback, that's 30,000 hours of mock interviewing. Working 8 hours a day that's 3750 workdays, and with 261

Worth noting that companies in the United States are subject to secret and forced surveillance by the US government (NSLs), and enforcing that surveillance also requires a degree of forced control as well. There is legal recourse for NSLs b

The rich shouldn't pay the same percent. 20% of my income in taxes has pretty profound changes to my life. Bezo's getting taxed at 90% means he has fewer megayachts and fewer private jets and fewer private islands. That 20% means

They would just put the money and company shares in trusts. It wouldn't change anything. What we really need is for capitalism as we know it to die. It's unethical that people are having to worry about starvation, not having a roo
