What does this even mean? Uber extracts money from you when you take rides. So how is a UI that makes it overly complicated to do that “designed to extract as much money from you as possible”?

This resonates with me. I’ve noticed an absolute dependence on mental stimulation. I think your solutions is the same conclusion I came to. Cheers!

On the contrary, having a giant monitor with two tabs open... /s
Who cares? So nit. You could hotkey to switch between two windows of the same program.

Crazy. Can I ask what extension this is? Wish I had the problem of tens of thousands of new users wanting my product weekly :)

I wholeheartedly agree. But I think it’s just a matter of preference for top-down or bottom-up

on: A group of Google workers have announced plans to unionize
My friend just moved to Germany. They make WAY less than SV engineers (working at the same company). Granted, they don’t have to work 24 hour oncall shifts. I’m not saying the less wages is because of unions, just pointing it out.

Guitar makes me happy. Feeling stimulated and feeling like I’m progressing makes me happy. I can be productive in guitar. Where’s the conflation in this?

Yeah, plaids flagship feature is instant bank verification. It replaces the archaic micro-deposit method for allowing users to auth their bank account.

on: Fleeing New Yorkers resulted in an estimated $34B in lost income – study
Seriously. The argument is that rich people come in, raising rent due to increased housing demand and constant supply, which pushes poor people out. But the reverse (rich people leave, rental demand decreases, lowering rents and allowing poor people to come back) isn’t true. Makes perfect sense /s

If it’s not a primary residence, you don’t get to deduct the taxes from other sources of income. It’s restricted to deducting from rental income. You can carry the loss forward though.

It’s an unfortunate consequence of diversity-driven hiring practices. Another is that applicants who would’ve gotten hired on their own merit are prejudged as diversity hires.

He’s asking specifically about Coinbase. Referencing how “most companies” do things isn’t relevant to his question.
And can you explain to me why one is absolutely required to publicly vocalize their stance on the George Floyd issue? How is not wanting to speak on the topic in the workplace equivalent to being racist?
