What source would one cite for this that's not just anecdotes?
agentdrtran··on Apple employees criticize work-from-home policy in open letter
many (most?) neuro-atypical people absolutely have a much better experience wfh rather than in person and policies that force back to office ignore their needs.
agentdrtran··on Grindr user data has been for sale for years
They haven't been owned by a gay person in years, AFAIK
agentdrtran··on I accidentally loaned all my money to the US government
This has been my experience with basically any large company in the country.
agentdrtran··on Nobody will admit the best novel of our generation is about football
Bois also has a documentary on MMA up on youtube, I went into it knowing nothing about MMA but greatly enjoyed it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DoaUyMGPWI

What are the ads like on 4chan or truth social?
agentdrtran··on Ask HN: What Happened to Product Hunt?
Product Hunt is a step away from spam on a good day, and I'm not surprised to see how much worse it's gotten. Even most of the products now are just templates
agentdrtran··on Twitter Should Open Up the Algorithm
It's not about security bugs in this case, anti-spam needs obscurity as a layer of defense.
agentdrtran··on I'm tired of Google's business products
Google also has support for all paid Workspace tiers.
agentdrtran··on I'm tired of Google's business products
Drive's organization is a usability nightmare and I hope someone at Google has a plan for this. Shared with me is a graveyard, file permissions are a nightmare to manage, and repairing mistakes is painful to impossible.
agentdrtran··on I'm tired of Google's business products
You have the same problem with MS or Google, and Google probably isn't going to kill Gmail/Drive anytime soon. If it's a core service you're fine.
agentdrtran··on Elon Musk makes $43B unsolicited bid to take Twitter private
> I hope we all agree that laws against libel, glorification of crime, threatening people are not exactly censorship.

No, this isn't free speech absolutism, and adding a paywall to any conversation on twitter would kill the site.

agentdrtran··on Is my advice too mercenary?
BadgerCare (in Wisconsin) I've heard good things about too (considering they're insurance)
agentdrtran··on Amazon workers at 100 more facilities want to unionize: Amazon Labor Union
The former is an unavoidable and, considering the benefits, worthwhile outcome of unionization. The latter is to protect bosses from slowly overloading one person/role and using that to increase work for everyone or split the union.
agentdrtran··on Amazon workers at 100 more facilities want to unionize: Amazon Labor Union
On average, unionized workplaces are much safer with higher-paid and happier workers. It is also illegal to close down a facility to prevent or in response to workers forming a union. Workers in labor unions have reported being happier than non-union counterparts for years now.
agentdrtran··on Is my advice too mercenary?
You are free to buy your own (expensive, much worse) health insurance rather than through an employer, sure.
agentdrtran··on Is my advice too mercenary?
Every single one of those programs comes with a laundry list of asterisks that make them far worse than any employer provided insurance I have ever had.
agentdrtran··on Etsy Strike
I've come across very niche products that get ripped off, it's affecting everything. if your tiny custom tshirt shop gets enough sales you'll be copied soon enough with apparently no recourse.
agentdrtran··on San Francisco cops pull over a Cruise driverless car for no lights on
A human being is not a software or engineering project
agentdrtran··on Ask HN: Have you had any real benefits from apps like Headspace, Fabulous, etc?
I've tried headspace, fabulous, and a few others I don't remember. Fabulous was awful, I hated it. Headspace was good but it never really clicked with me enough to continue using it.
agentdrtran··on Elon Musk appointed to twitters board of directors
so truth social, gab, and 4chan are flooded with advertiser cash right?
agentdrtran··on Twitter user sentenced to 150 hours of community service in UK
The largest media outlets that beat the freedom of speech drum (fox, other right wing sites) never do so in response to people whose speech they don't like being silenced.
agentdrtran··on I'm a scam prevention expert and I got scammed
"just don't get phished"
agentdrtran··on Zulip 5.0: Threaded open-source team chat
Thread only is the biggest reason to use it outside of FOSS, but the UI design and overall experience could use some work. It's not bad, but for apps like Zulip that are different from what people are used to, it can make a big difference.
agentdrtran··on Are we wrong about Web3?
Remove the bad stuff and only keep the good stuff of something? Why haven't we thought of this before, it's genius!
agentdrtran··on Tell HN: There needs to be a “right to speak with a human”
what happens when the free market decides to do something in nobody's best interest except themselves?
agentdrtran··on System – A resource that aims to explain how everything in the world is related
I clicked on "unemployment" and the results were unsatisfying to say the least. All it told me was that unemployment is related to being out of work or unemployed. I love the idea though.
agentdrtran··on Teaching is a slow process of becoming everything you hate
just out of curiosity, did they cheat more than the average cheater? I knew a few of people who cheated in college but it was infrequent and varied by class, friend group, etc.
agentdrtran··on Ask HN: My Google account was hacked, Google says they can't help
Agreed, companies forcing horrible 2fa implementations are turning people off to the idea of using it at all on their personal accounts (even when it's far less onerous)
