FWIW, If you’re talking about the bank bailout in 2008, that was signed by Bush (not Obama). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_Economic_Stabiliza...

I like Eno, Eluvium and Helios and these are some artists that have similar music I’ve found that I didn’t see mentioned so far: Ryuichi Sakamoto (sample piece: solari) Roedelius (sample piece: A Short Walk in the Hills) Vangelis (sample pi

Helpful ritual: not having zoom meetings half of every work day. Went from a remote company that did this to one that didn’t and I am way more productive and less burnt out. Also helpful: no forced online hangouts and discussion of current

This may not help a lot, but I did a good job at my regular employer and connected with coworkers. One of my coworkers introduced me to people that needed some side work. That turned into a steady stream of contract work so far. Been doing

Aspartame makes me dizzy, even a little bit like from gum containing it. I have to abstain.

I’ve found therapy and support groups helpful during and after going through this. People at work and other places may not get it or have the capacity to care to the extent to make a difference. It’s weird when people are having conversatio

It could have been done before COVID so it would’ve already been done. Business people aren’t dumb and if they could have offshores development, they would have (and they also have been doing this for years anyway). So why would they hire w

It’s not that hard to see why this matters now. On the one hand you have folks that want to ban rights of LGBTQ folks, end ability to get an abortion safely, for example. On the other there’s those that want to remove powers of the police,

She mentioned calculating that due to retiring before the age of 65 as an option. However comparing only 2nd cheapest silver plan seems a little lacking; more equivalent would probably entail comparing price of plans that are actually close

Washington has a ton of cool outdoors stuff. Just be ready to have maybe max a couple months of great weather per year to enjoy it (unless you don't mind overcast and drizzle, or forest fire smoke in summer). Also competing with the ot

In addition, some states may penalize the employer for not paying state payroll taxes including state unemployment insurance for the employee. Realistically, this may be difficult for a state to determine but if there is a lease or mortgage

Any ideas why it seems like tech hotspots start passing laws like this? I'm thinking of San Francisco, Seattle, and Austin. I feel like there is some correlation, but I do not know what it is. My perspective is that maybe it seems more

No offense, but this logic makes no sense to me. It's like, most studies are flawed so let's try random things I saw on the internet in hopes they might help. I don't get it. Don't really care if someone takes Vitamin D

Nothing is stopping anyone from doing what they think makes sense to them -- scientific studies should still be just that though, following sound principles to be able to draw realistic conclusions. If we use flawed studies to convince othe

Not necessarily, but worth a try. Had to turn down an offer from a prospective employer due to a company unwilling to help with this, ended up burning alot of my and their time for no good reason and it was made clear early in the process t

I recently read Transcendental and related books by this author and really enjoyed the writing style and stories. What a cool life to get to create and share science fiction with us for so many years.

I agree about the inflammatory part regarding the headline. Keep it in context about the particular situation at hand. That said, in general, I think it can be frightening and traumatic to some people to see angry people destroying things.

The dictionary definition of violence seems to include meaning the use of physical force to damage or destroy. I mean we can say this is different here, but I'd imagine we'd feel different if it was like right wingers smashing up

Did I miss something, is this an exception -- I thought they are not allowing Americans into Finland due to COVID-19?

I'm not so sure if it is a side effect of therapy? At least in the modern capitalist world, people seem to be pretty 'me first' whether they've done therapy or not. Take America, where we refuse to have significant socia

This theory doesn't make a lot of sense to me, I've heard it a few times though. Why would someone buy a house away from the city during a temporary pandemic shutdown, assuming when things eventually open up again more in say max

Either coastal Carolinas or Hawaii. We like living near the ocean and access to good outdoors activities on land. Coastal Carolinas is much more affordable than Hawaii and more access to certain outdoor activities (hunting and freshwater f

This doesn't directly answer your question and you didn't ask it, but I feel it relates directly to the source of your frustration potentially: you may never find a job that is fully satisfactory in terms of what you hope to find.

If you know the right people, they might tell you pretty much what Leetcode questions will be asked, who you might be interviewing with, what their personalities are like, etc. though. That is alot easier than going in blind (for most peopl

I used to live in that area and it would regularly take 45+ minutes to get to/from Bellevue and could take over an hour to Seattle. Edit: also a home like that would probably have been like 450k just 4yrs ago. Prices have skyrocketed a

I think this depends, for me at least. I've had jobs where my coworkers and I aren't that close at all even working together in an office setting. We had little attachment to each other during and after the shared job experience w

That is an amazing site you linked there -- got caught up reading how this person managed to get a working game dump from an old tape with a non-100% working tape reader with all kinds of interesting hackery. Pretty darn impressive!

One thing I wonder is how well limiting certain things people can do will work. For example, if only the beach or parks are open, will you actually have a higher concentration of people showing up there that normally wouldn't because i
