There's enough of a market that the Casio G-Shock is still alive and well.

The argument I usually see is that there would be less need for transportation as the removal of explicit zoning would be part of the effort for increasing density and that would put people closer to the goods and services that they want&#x

Yep makes sense. Thanks!

Maybe I just haven't had enough coffee this morning, but I don't understand the scenario you're describing. Could you elaborate?

I agree that the above is what we should do as individuals to make our own interview experience smoother. It's a shame that we have to though, considering that the interviewers all have been interviewees themselves in the past and shou

Not currently interviewing, but in the past i've failed interviews because I didn't do something that the interviewer didn't ask me to do. This would be something like expecting the interviewee to go in depth about a specific

Tires have a born on date stamped on them and they also crack and wear with age even if they're not used unless you seal them up. I think you're overestimating how many people would be willing to do the swap and consciously ride o

It's definitely possible that this happens, but I doubt that a lot of people would go out of their way to have that kind of setup. If you have the tools, the willingness to change tires, and the space to hold on to 4 spare ones, I feel

Fair, but there are other existing avenues for enforcement. CHP can already write fix-it tickets for bald tires if they wanted to. We could also require shops to report it as part of a vehicle's history if someone brings a vehicle in w

It's unfortunate that they went in that direction as opposed to something like a tire tax. Just have the regular smog tests also include a tire wear check to catch the folks trying to run their tires bald.

Support plans make sense for products/software that are sold and expected to operate independently (cars as always are a good example). Heck, even those products generally come with some sort of free limited time support which come in

Reduce the quality/quantity of the existing product to keep the same price over time. Release another similar 'product', possibly under a different product name and/or brand with the original quality/quantity but at

Good. Touch screen controls are a good tool for communicating visual information while having some way to still give users some controls. Tactile controls are good tools for when the operator needs to visually focus on something else and fe

Consent is murky at best when there's a large power discrepancy between two co-workers. See: everything that's been going on with Hollywood in the past couple of years

I think a simple solution to this is to require everyone to have a minimum of a scooter/moped license first before being able to apply for a driver's license. Maybe we'll inject some more empathy into drivers if they realize

I disagree with coining a different term to make it more socially acceptable. Therapist being generic is useful for keeping mental health issues under a single blanket and preventing other people from easily figuring out what you're go

I also just realized that WeWork owns Meetup.com. I don't know how I missed that.

How would WeWork going under torpedo meetup.com? I'm not super familiar with their relationship with each other. Some quick Googling shows that they do have one partnership for a product related to booking a space for use with a meetup

Whether or not it's deserved doesn't change that it's still more people than the existing population who votes no wanted. Playing devil's advocate for a moment, the companies that built those office parks knew what the h

The folks who are pushing for more housing to be built in the bay are pushing density on folks who are against it. Disclaimer: I'm not saying that that's good or bad.

I have the same dissonance. For me, I think it's from my underlying interest in being good at something without having to make compromises or handicaps. As a benign example, I rarely/almost never change the keybinds in any of the

Unless you're giving each customer's meals a nice massage before serving them, your skin condition means nothing from a hygiene POV if you're acting as a server or a host.

Depends on the goals of the contractor. They might concede to some crazy agreements to be able to list a big name company or a high profile project on their work history to get higher paying work in the future.

If I remember the section of that book correctly, Andrew Grove talks about how you want to handle decision making as a manager. According to Andrew, you want to have folks come to a decision with minimal intervention from you. Part of it is
