It allocates 2 collections for every compare call and obfuscates the comparison logic. Personally I find that extremely inelegant. Different strokes I suppose.

Yea, Intel has been in Hillsboro since the 70's. People moved from all over the world to work for Intel in office in Oregon. This has nothing to do with remote.

Fair enough. But keep in mind cars only solve this last mile problem when there's high throughput roads connecting all possible trip starts / destinations. In American we have this infrastructure (at a great cost in city design an

In my experience, learning a second language to a high level involves some amount of disassociation. Only people I know without this experience spoke both languages from a very early age usually at home. So this tracks. But there can be oth

In my area they recycle 1, 2 and 5, so that's what I do. PET #1 is very recyclable in general. Not so sure about 2 or 5. My biggest frustration is all the recycling labels smeared on things that aren't recyclable leading to everyo

I know a few people who have gotten in through Customer Support. Worst case scenario, you get experience working at a tech company, working with engineers, PMs, designers, etc. It's all very valuable. I suggest against the remote angle

If you could get into his Discord (a gaming-focused chat app), you could probably figure it out by looking though his DMs and finding someone close to him to notify.

He may also be playing emulated EverQuest, such as Project1999 (which has separate forums). Discourse for online games these days is mainly done via Discord, however. So there's a good chance you won't find them on the forums.

After reading this, I was left with the impression Google is full of under-utilized talent, has poor product vision and has systems in place that discourage innovation and risk taking. So if this is a PR piece, then it is not a great one.

The Chinese influence works a lot like the Latin influence on English. Japanese is written in Chinese and some extra derivatives (hiragana/katakana are derived from Chinese characters). English is written in Latin characters plus a few

Half of English is medieval Latin (French) and half of Japanese is medieval Chinese is a better analogy.

> There are multiple operators This is because there's just a lot more rail. Tokyo has 3x the density of stations (0.61 per mile vs 0.2) and 10x the amount of track (2929 miles vs 248) as NYC. Tokyo is just a much much bigger city.

Ok, so my memory is a little foggy. Looks like the laser one didn't come out until 2000, but the hockey puck was USB at least!

That source quotes a study from LA county (not SF) in 2018, which discloses no methodology. So not a bullet-proof statistic by any means.

I've decided most homeless social programs are a trap. By locating these programs in the centers of the highest cost of living cities, we can't reasonably expect them to succeed, assuming success is actually getting people housed

Those stats are outdated and generally somewhat dubious—what was the methodology here? Nonetheless, it is clear CA generates a lot of homeless. The linked study from 2018 claimed 52,765 homeless in LA county, while the count by the same gro
