Yes it does do that and worse. When I was on H1b years back in big co, most of my coworkers were on h1b as well and they were scared to death to leave because of comfort and self doubt. Some manager knew this and abused this power by pointing out that their green card application can be withdrawn any moment if they don’t work on weekends.

Netflix has a comedy about a programmer getting into drug trade called How To Sell Drugs Online (Fast)

you can't rent a car without credit card, they won't accept debit card or even debit VISA/MASTERCARD, it has to be full on credit card

For a lot of countries it’s either emit pollution and feed people or don’t and let lots of people starve. Do you think your privileged life worth more than someone from third world who can barely afford to eat?

Most injuries went away after I started incorporating heavy weights training. Heavy deadlifts and squats specifically but also bench press, overhead press and rows:

1. they increase strength in the core muscles which makes it easier to keep proper form for longer while running

2. putting heavy weights on your body strengthens muscles/tendons/joints. My knee injuries disappeared and I no longer roll my ankles etc

It depends. I've seen bigco use this technique and their reason was that they wanted to separate problems with API and request from actual issue with their servers/platform. So if you get 200 it means they received request successfully but if there is issue with request they'll include error in response with 200. If it's anything else then there is a networking or delivery problem. It's not standard way to handle things but can be useful at times.

Simple and fun to read + you build full game console and games for it. Has more practical knowledge than my full undergrad degree in Computer Engineering: https://www.amazon.com/Black-Video-Game-Console-Design/dp/06...

How do I remove Siri so that it never comes back to ask if I want to enable it? Just disabling doesn’t work, it comes back asking to be turned on

Help didn't help me, but I am glad it did for you. I spent lots of money but eventually what saved me is reading this article and then the whole book about intelligent people suffering from depression and failures in life: http://www.hoagiesgifted.org/dabrowskis_theory_existential_d...

it related to me more than anything else but everyone is different

lithium is common but to get it's hard to extract, highest concentration is 0.14%(https://investingnews.com/daily/resource-investing/battery-m...) which means in 1 cubic feet of brine there are 0.0014 cubic feet of lithium. Imagine how much power it takes to dig it out (definitely monster construction machinery ran on fossil fuels etc) and then add extraction process to that. I would be interested to see if there are any sources digging deeper into it.

Have you tried D? It’s popular in game development world and very pleasant to work with. https://dlang.org/

Random observation that might be related. If you take some bands that were formed in late 60s, early 70s like Rush, Jethro Tull, Pink Floyd, King Crimson and follow their careers, as they became older their music became angrier and angrier lol(especially starting late 90s and into 2000s). I always attributed it to band members getting older and bitter at life but maybe as you say it’s due to times changing...

As it always is, but it’s a good start. Maybe we they can get funding for human studies.

Can you talk more about this? What was the example? What is actually achievable and worth recycling?

"low self-esteem, eating disorders and an increase in problematic sexual activity" <- by adding eating disorders they basically saying it's girls (young boys with eating disorders to improve body shape are statistical error), this implies that girls want to look like pornstars which is false since none of them look up to pornstars but they do look up to and follow thousands of girls on instagram etc with fake happy lives and slimming filters etc

That makes no sense. Self esteem(etc) is affected by instagram not porn lol

I would change it to: some were meant to c

Thank you. Would you be so kind to write a blog post about this?

Either start one or join one close to IPO. It’s not worth being first employee etc, too much risk for no reward(dilution through rounds , no payout in small acquisition, low salary, etc)

pretty much garbage at this point, I honestly don't know what to do anymore. I tried Duck Duck Go and Start Pages but they are not as good. I am testing Yandex, so far it's really good and performs like old Google but I don't know what are the implications of me using Russian search engine :/

This usually happens when you join a startup that either gets acquired by big co or it becomes billion dollar company itself. They key is to be lucky enough to join rocket ship early, which is mostly luck so most ppl fail.

Just from top of my head:

1. Investors and employees cash out

2. You have huge leverage with stock compensation that now is real cash

3. You can buy other companies because you have access to funding(sell company shares instead of taking a loan, etc)

I’m sure there are more benefits
