I've been loving apple card. I love that the rewards come in cash rather than airline points, so it's really easy to use the rewards.

That's an interesting idea. It'd be cool if ChatGPT gave a portion of the income to whatever 3rd party app we authenticated with as well So the workflow would be this: * pay 20$ a month for access to ChatGPT and receive API token

I used to work at LinkedIn (owned by microsoft) and about 2 years ago they announced engineering was switching from zoom/slack to teams. There was significant uproar and LinkedIn leadership ended up reversing the decision. To my know

I was referring to Joe Rogan laughing at the story. I'm not going to judge someone based solely on their reaction to a story being told to them 12 years ago.

We should take into account the amount of time he spends being recorded, the frequency of the incidents, and the trends of the incidents over time. I think most everyone has said something wrong in the last 12 years. If it happened 12 yea

Ive seen them accompany people to retrieve stolen bicycles. In my experience, they're not interested in doing detective work to locate stolen items, but if you know where the stolen item is, they will accompany you to retrieve the ite

I think sometimes we are quick to discount the affect that home life has on children's school performance. Part of the reason school's are better in wealthy areas is because children in wealthy areas tend to have better home life

wait for the acquisition to happen and then use the same methods you'd use to get an interview at any other company.

To what extent do black computer science grads have worse job placement than white/asian ones? At my employer for every position we're required to interview at least one underrepresented demographic (basically female, black or la

These posts consistently make it to the front page of HN. I'm not denying that casteism exists, but since the subject draws so much attention, reporters must feel incentivized to write about it.

I think it's common of all groups to lump individuals of other groups. Someone might say "<republicans | democrats | asians | whites | blacks | chinese | americans | rich | poor> all think that <insert thing here here&gt

I would feel conflicted as well. On the one hand, I would be happy to see someone work hard to build something they're interested in. On the other hand, I would feel nervous about all them getting exposed to the grossness of the inte

I guess the question should be why would you spend 300k at USC to make 50k, when you could spend 50k somewhere else to make the same 50k.

There's a shortage of software engineers and we need more students to enroll in STEM. When deciding between an expensive STEM degree or a free liberal arts degree, students are incentivized to chose the free degree in your proposed so

I really like this idea, only edge case I wonder about is if such a policy would incentivize colleges to avoid letting in students from low income backgrounds.

You've never met the person you've declared them as "EXACTLY" the problem of "on the fence"... How do you know that all your assumptions about this person are true?

doesn't amazon exceed minimum wage for almost all employees?

by jeffy90 5y ago
I agree with you, but I do think it really is a problem that students disproportionately choose the "useless" degrees rather than STEM fields. I anecdotally know of many who in hindsight wish they had studied computer science or

Does the US actually get poor returns on K-12 education? I assume that public K-12 education contributes a lot to the economy in the form of an educated population. Wouldn't both the economy and tax revenue shrink without K-12?
