If you make more than 1x your wage in tips, then you are mostly paid in tips - regardless of whether your state has a tipped minimum wage law.

Would you hear it from inside the plane? Even if it’s not as loud as the main engine, if it’s audible at all a lot of people would notice a change in pitch/tone. At least, I notice when the sounds the plane is making change even though

I think two different accounting methods are being conflated here which leads to the huge $3B vs $18B difference. Congress periodically authorizes spending for military aid to Israel and other countries. Later, the executive branch actually

I wonder if people downvoted this because they took it as some kind of political point about COVID-19. Maybe it was, but I agree with it as a serious proposal. Even if the government is not confident in its ability to get people to accept v

Just to give an experience report as someone maintaining a 50k line rust codebase at work. I didn’t write this code and have only read parts of it. I am not a rust expert. I faced a really puzzling bug - basically errors coming out of an AP

Well, the phone’s software works great. They just haven’t released those new AI features - which are supposed to come out on some older devices as well. And it’s hardly the first time Apple delayed a release. IMO, the only thing weird here

Apple doesn’t have a reputation for letting engineers slack. I have to guess they are working like dogs to meet some standard before they are willing to release.

I’ve ridden Waymo in SF and it has gone great. The cost was cheaper than the cheapest Lyft/Uber, but in a much nicer vehicle. I felt 100% safe the whole time, which is better than I can say about humans who get paid more if they drive

I see a lot of the recommendations expressing anxiety about what will happen when they discontinue - which calls into question the validity of the official treatment plan they are under and isn’t normally something you’d bring up in an ad.

How does the critical reading help you tell ad copy apart from an honest and enthusiastic recommendation? Not a rhetorical question.

The idea that Tesla would win the robotaxi race by not needing LiDAR died sometime between when LiDAR cost $100k and when it cost $1k. Now it’s just Elon being intransigent.

You can cut it more finely but I think you still run into the same issue. The best candidates to run an agency that regulates a particular industry are going to highly overlap with the best candidates to be leaders in that industry, because

If the government wasn’t allowed to hire from private, it would be starved of talent. That would be a great scheme to hobble any agency you don’t like.

I think I’m bad at categorizing different strains of dualism because I tend to dismiss the whole enterprise without giving a fair amount of consideration. I figure brains are amazing and we may never understand how they work very well. But

As a materialist, I have to give this one to the dualists. The argument that AI isn’t intelligent because it’s just a bunch of numbers makes more sense coming from that perspective.

They ask on the admission form if you are a legacy, and legacy applicants answer yes because it helps them get in. So that’s very easy to track. Parents who get their kids admitted by donating millions of dollars presumably get a more “whit

My understanding is that tech was politically weaker back then. Although there were some big tech companies, they didn’t have as much of a lobbying operation.

Hopefully there are multiple organizations with different funding sources who aren’t beholden to each other, so they can fill whatever gaps in coverage they see. That would be a better outcome than everyone refusing journalism as a career b

Does UBI pay enough to support a ski bum lifestyle? That’s probably what I would do if I had guaranteed income with no job.

Individual school administrators would have to face off against helicopter parents if they tried to implement this policy. The state government is protecting them through air superiority.

From what I could tell, the equivalent level (in terms of scope/responsibilities) at the other FANG companies pays more. So even if you are just after the money, it doesn’t seem worth it if the others are also willing to hire you at th

Is the limit really 8500 to get into that unregulated category? Small SUVs are very popular and are basically sedans on stilts and weigh a lot less than 8500. So I don’t think you could blame the death of sedans on that rule, if that’s inde
