I'd love to see data on RTO mandates vs real estate lease/own status. For companies that own, Low occupancy = asset write downs = higher cost of capital.

Pop culture is weird. Click bait becomes engrained in the zeitgeist. Nothing new about doing the bare minimum to get paid at a job while quietly searching for a new job.

The end of my career is uncertain. My entire career has been uncertain. Not completely unplanned, but rather has progressed in ways I could never have predicted. I had luck and opportunity to ride the cloud computing wave and it carried m

I see 2 way to do this. A company (and PM) sees demand for the feature and they include it, ot it is forced by regulation. A lot of these companies that originally had open standards formed with huge amounts of VC money and they prioritize

Amazon owns most of its downtown Seattle real estate. Low occupancy means balance sheet write downs, and higher cost of capital.

What was your parents' reaction when you quit drinking? Congrats on being in recovery. 400+ days myself. Also drank a lot in college but didn't have parents pressuring me. They looked the other way.

Rubbing the opening side of the bag between your palms generates static and opens it too. Learned that from a meat department employee who saw me struggling one day.

The ones at Amazon were super generic. SDE skills were supposedly "fungible."

The first time I visited Brazil, we gringos each ordered the large glass bottle of beer from a beach kioskue and drank from it. We quickly learned that was not the right way. The insulation sleeve and shared bottle is a much better way.

Racing games seem to be a niche that makes sense. The tech will keep shrinking and the cost will come down. We are still in the early adopter phase.

That's a good point. Hardware + software seems a lot harder than just software too.

Chances are there is OSS already running in commercially available vehicles. Owners tinkering with ICE vehicles was and is a thing and I don't see how an electric power train makes that too much different. Open standards and data forma

Without the truth, a vision is a hallucination. It saddens me how easily someone with money and influence can elevate themselves to a quasi religious figure. In reality, this vision you speak of is more like the blind leading the blind.

I have studied radio comms at a hobby level and learned that the voltage of a close lightning strike isn't the main danger to equipment, it's also the strong surge of EMI that can overwhelm and fry things, and induce currents wher

I lost a good friend to this. Hope it helps other people. The meds helped him but he didn't like the side effects so he stopped taking them. Went in and out of homelessness. In the end he thought he had superpowers and could fly. H

I'm not upset with them, at all. I chose to get on an airplane to go see them. Then wasted a weekend sitting around next to each other staring at the tv and not really being present. That was on me. I wanted to be with my old frien

"I" lost all interest. That's not a dig at them, or you. I've dealt with my own demons and am very comfortable differentiating between sharing my experience from the "I", and not drifting into giving unwanted

I re-read my comment and did not pass any judgement then, nor now. I simply shared my experience. If you are triggered by something I wrote, that's all on you. I get it, no one dealing with addiction wants to be called out on it. Th

I think a big part of this math is avoiding huge balance sheet write downs on unoccupied real estate. When Amazon was heavily investing in SLU in the 2010's they purchased all of their leased offices from the developer, Paul Allen&#x27

The only way out of this is probably unionization. Or a slow death from the inefficiency of idling or pushing out so many people who are job hunting while coasting. I never imagined Amazon could be a place to coast and collect a paycheck un
