99% of reddit users are aware that moderators do some nice volunteer work but wouldn't cross the street to save them
its only Extremely Online people who care about this Insider Baseball stuff
I once interviewed with Oracle Cloud (when it was going through its big-rewrite), and I was told the goal was to staff it with entirely new, not-Oracle people...the conclusion being that the first incarnation of Oracle Cloud failed partly due to staffing it internally
1. 100% cleaned up healthy diet
2. regular exercise
3. good sleep
and being alcohol/drug-free comes along for free
I don't agree that social pressures make this impossible as others have suggested...I mean, does anyone here shun someone else at a party who isn't drinking/doing drugs? of course not
it is quite common these days to meet normal, successful people who don't drink, lead healthy lifestyles, you will not be a pariah
don't worry about popularity - people who are fit and healthy have no problems making friends as being in shape is inherently attractive
No doubt the system is abused, but the solution isn't to eliminate all protections...Apple or Google have the money to instantly clone anything
Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is another classic and you can find it practically anywhere
no one has to make that choice
tbh how is this different than most subs?
this is a feature, not a bug...it keeps these people out of the real world and glued to their keyboards where their blast radius is limited to their own echo chamber
most of the political/activist/policy-driven discussions on reddit have no impact on the real world and lots of energy is just dissipated into typing that goes in to a db and no further
case in point...most local subs are mobilized against NIMBYs...but NIMBYs tend to voice their concerns at City Council meetings (where it matters), not on the internet...guess who wins?
reddit just takes the energy out of activism and dissipates it
I mean, if you can live in the past and blame Trump, why not live in the past and blame Obama?
It is easy to codify Roe v Wade and get it past SCOTUS...start asking your elected Democrats why they won't do it
By Friday it will all be forgotten
not Intel either, since they are staking a future in being a fab for anyone
Dell (and Lenovo, and HP) should be very worried though, they are more singularly dependent on Windows than either Microsoft or Intel
I don't see any PC makers screwing up the courage to imagine a post-Windows world, but they had better start thinking about it
you can't cure loneliness with Apple Vision Pro
you can't cure loneliness with anything else that relegates you to being alone in your apartment interacting only with digital technology
quite the opposite...we will just breed a new generation of super-psychos who cannot cope with other real people and will snap in increasingly destructive ways
its a giant pile of symlinks
I've seen interviews with the directory of She-Hulk where she seems to revel in the fact that the "fandom" was crapping all over her show...
"this will piss off all the right people!" is not a business strategy
they really did kill Star Wars
Marvel too
its probably too late to save either, as Disney thinks more bad, woke content is the answer to too much bad, woke content
its not clear to me why they can't replace Kennedy...its like she has an envelope with compromising photos and can't be fired or something...they should have exited her out long ago but keep protecting her
is this true? afaik they hand over their money and trust the partners to allocate
> and almost all of them are pension funds.
pension funds can go to taxpayers for a bailout and CalPERs has done so before
this is why it is not a great idea for pension funds to play in venture capital...it isn't fair for taxpayers who have to pay out the losses to keep the pensions running
HN needs to start screening out the relentless, mindless Apple fanfic posts
most medical practices have your test results available online
not sure why/how you need to merge blood tests and watch data for a meaningful benefit
otherwise, spend time cleaning up your diet and improving your exercise and sleep...you can't get healthy just moving data around
this is an economy of owners and renters, you will be one or the other
so buy an income property to rent out, etc
otherwise, you are always just someone who works for someone else
people who try to succeed just based on their salary will be disappointed unless it is a mammoth salary (becoming more rare in sw)
