What's the difference between this and remote work pay being based on local cost of living?
jessepasley··on California's most neglected group of students: the gifted ones
Is that how gifted students are identified these days? When I went through the gifted program as a kid/teen, we had to take what was considered to be an IQ test at the time. Being far ahead in some skills in schools might be have been indicator but not sufficient to being admitted.

Try your best not to swallow.
jessepasley··on Family Dollar to close almost 1,000 stores
This reminds me of Aldi from about 25 years ago. Today, I buy most of my diet from Aldi: organic berries, grass fed beef, pasture raised chicken and eggs, etc. All are higher quality than other grocery stores, but much cheaper. I'm guessing this must be regional, which is sad.
jessepasley··on The 2023 Hugo nomination statistics have been released and we have questions
Sounds like a title of one of his books!

Can Godot export to mobile/console/etc easily?
jessepasley··on Melatonin use soars among children, with unknown risks
Melatonin comes in cute little gummies. Why would something so cute and candy-like carry any risk?
jessepasley··on Tesla Earnings Slide 37%
What an immature answer. If I knew I wouldn't ask...I'm asking in good faith 'Why'? Space X is a genuinely successful and innovative company. I have friends who all like their Teslas or their Starlink service. I have no idea about Twitter because I've never liked it to begin with. So, Why?
jessepasley··on Tesla Earnings Slide 37%
Why?
jessepasley··on Finnish president says undersea pipeline, cables damaged by 'external activity'
I feel it's down to two suspects:

1. The US said they would do it, then did it 2. Ukraine did it, because most European intelligence agencies believe this to be true.

jessepasley··on Singapore: Right to own a car costs $76,000. And that doesn't include the car

jessepasley··on Singapore: Right to own a car costs $76,000. And that doesn't include the car
Maybe not you specifically, but why would anyone bring drugs in their luggage on a transit flight through Singapore. Why would someone not have a basic understanding of breaking the law in the countries they travel to/thru?
jessepasley··on Singapore: Right to own a car costs $76,000. And that doesn't include the car
Everybody knows the laws, why would you insist on breaking them?
jessepasley··on The worrying democratic erosions in South Korea
The US elected Trump, then voted him out of office. This is democracy.
