   Any openly available tool can be used by anyone for any purpose. The idea that we can pick and choose is ridiculous, and with the exception of rare cases, avoidance of building generally useful tools for the chance that bad actors will also

   It's been years since I've used it. Was a pretty technically sophisticated startup back in the day. Has been since acquired so not surprised it has decayed.

   If you don't want to go through thousand page textbooks on financial accounting, managerial accounting, and corporate finance, I recommend the following two short books to everyone: 1. Financial Statements, Thomas Ittelson - https:&#x

   Totally agree. The one with Jon Rubinstein [0] was illuminating in a way none of the biographies have been. [0] Part 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJxElfc0N9E Part 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47b

    This sounds interesting, could you share any more of your project? I want to get back into c/c++ dev, the modern libraries look great!

    This has always been a shit argument. Injustice has to be fixed across the board, otherwise it's a tax on just the honest/moral people.

    I suspect the most practical way to reform our institutions is through increased competition in governance, just like we "fix" stagnant institutions in the private sector. We already have this baked into our constitution: States r

    My advice, like with anything, is to learn the fundamentals first. In this case, that's CSS and its box model [0]. You don't need to learn every nook, cranny, and idiosyncrasy of CSS, but enough to know what's going on in hig

    CPAPs aerosolize on exhale, they aren't closed loop like hospital ventilators. It's not about cleaning just the machine but decontaminating the whole room.

    Recent research (as in the last 10 years) seems to suggest that current RDI is at least an order of magnitude lower than it should be. I have no medical background, but anecdotally, it has helped my sleep a lot. I'm generally a supplem

    I agree with the posts saying most are of little to no value, maybe even negative considering anxiety from monitoring. I think a decent proxy for obstructions is a good pulse oximeter. I would also recommend getting your vitamin D levels ch

    I think a lot of people are missing the point of the article. It's not anti-feature. It's against building features that have no measurable impact to the real goals of any business: better product for the customer AND therefore mo

    Am I missing something? This already exists in Google Docs. Much easier to implement when the doc is database-backed (recording every keystroke for OT) vs file-based.

    Agreed, which is why I think going to version controlled, working UI code ASAP is key. Also my views are for super early UI design and development. For a mature UI like existing Uber or Airbnb app where larger teams (more than a couple peop

    Reading the book Creative Selection [1], by an early iPhone software engineer describing the development of the software keyboard, cemented my existing belief in working demos over wireframes. A lot of what makes some UI great over others i
