On the contrary some of my best friends I’ve made at work and I continue to spend time with them years after we’ve all moved on to different jobs.

I’ve always felt the “coworkers can’t be your friends” argument was as silly as saying “school mates can’t be your friends.” Make friends where you make them.

Even with a 30 year mortgage, you can refinance (take out a new mortgage and pay the old one off early) at any point. So even if you take out a mortgage with a 6% interest rate, you’re not stuck with it if the rates go down.

There isn’t really a standard beyond processors publish an OpenPGP and you negotiate over support tickets to determine where an encrypted file can be delivered. There is no standard for the file format used to exchange data. Could be JSON,

How does raising children work in that world? Do you just strap them in when their infants? (Also curious how sex and exercise work…)

When I saw the title I thought this might be from someone in their 50s or 60s. At 23 you haven’t wasted anything. You’re just getting started. I would argue instead how boring things would be if you just picked something at 10 and only did

I was just thinking this. Personally I've migrated from sharing things with friends and family on Facebook/Instagram, to a few group chats where friends and family share photos, life moments, etc. Somewhere along the line Facebook

Someone might acknowledge they have a limited amount of time in their lives to worry about such things and life involves trust to one degree or another. Maybe they believe the incentives involved result in the risk of something actually ter

I haven’t had fake goods, but I’ve had it happen where a generic part seems to get substituted for an OEM part, even if it is sold by Amazon.com. Things like replacement water filters or vacuum cleaner bags.

The distinction between “browser extension” and “baked into Safari” didn’t seem like an important distinction for this discussion. The similarities are that in both use cases the user is presented with a request to approve or deny.

The UX is similar to buying something with Apple Pay from a website in my experience.

It reduces friction for purchases. If I am on my phone, I am more likely to complete a transaction if I can just hit the Shopify Pay button. If I need to complete some form that looks like it is from the early 2000s, I might wait until I am

Same. It never occurred to me that technology would need to get involved. We have a filing cabinet where we store important papers.

I was at Amazon for almost 10 years and my experiences echo yours. The few people that I saw PIPed were people who were under-performing. I never saw people who were performing their job be forced into a PIP category.

I worked with several people at Amazon that were on a PIP and were able to move past it. (They were also people that were both talented enough to be successful in their roles, but needed a nudge because they were not meeting expectations at

https://www.nearlyfreespeech.net/ Just works. Dead simple. No frills. Feels like something from the early 90s. I've been using it for DNS for the last 10 years with multiple domains and no issues.
