I read the website but can’t tell — does it support pinch to zoom? Would make life easier when using Figma - I currently have to take my hand off of my mouse and put it on my laptop, which is on a stand :-/

Based on blunder after blunder since taking over, it has become so obvious that Elon isn’t qualified to run a company. So how has Tesla and SpaceX succeeded?

Can you explain why? Obviously the current system isn’t producing competent ones either.

We’ve know for decades - take money out of politics and make it about civil service. To do so requires campaign finance reform (limits on spending and sources of $) as well as making lobbying illegal

> Michael Jordan is an interesting example because he eventually did stop playing for the Bulls (because he retired) and then it took the Bulls six years before they made the playoffs again. I don’t see how this is a counterpoint. 100&#x

Pay the heroes what they’re worth. Imagine if the Bulls let Michael Jordan join another team because they wanted to discourage heroism.

What incentive do these companies have to circumvent their standard hiring procedures for you? I freelanced for nearly a decade. My guess is that they’re just not that interested in you. If you bring something valuable to the table, they wi

So tired of hearing how America is a free market. Supply / demand doesn’t matter here. We’re all owned by the banks, and ultimately the Fed and government pick the winners and losers.

I for one wish there were fewer people around chiding others with tired platitudes for not living their day-to-day lives like someone with $100m in their pocket.

I would test that assumption. At big tech firms you’re going to be competing with tens of thousands of other applicants who have the same idea as you. There are lots of lesser known midsized companies that sponsor visas where there will be
