- Comment on Why are people impressed with SpaceX? 5 weeks ago:
Imagine what they could do if his coke-and-ketamine fueled dipshitery decided to take up a different hobby.
Didn’t he just do that with Xitter?
Seems like he is quite isolated in SpaceX and COO is running everything.
- Comment on Why do phone apps update all the time but nothing seems to change? 1 month ago:
I disabled updates (though it looks like some Google apps update anyway) and majority continues to work. Few apps occasionally start a protest and tell me that I need to update before they resume their work.
It doesn’t answer your question, but indeed points that mostly there is nothing important.

Obese is a medical term though and Dr … PhD should know that.

£1.45 per litre translates to $7.03 per gallon. So I would say the claim that prices are comparable to European ones is spot on.

It’s $4.09 14 minutes from me according to the gas buddy and where I live the gas is more on the expensive side.

- Comment on Applied for a job and was asked to do a live interview. But all I get is this. 3 months ago:
Yeah, this is crazy, if you already went through other stages, they should find the time for you.
I’m wondering, perhaps we need a site tracking all those companies that post job openings without actually looking for employees. So we don’t have to waste our time on them, wanna they might also get some consequences from this practice when they actually need new talent.

- Comment on First using NixOS. It's awesome. 4 months ago:
It has an interesting approach in terms of organizing disk layout. That solves a lot of problems (dependency hell, immutability, reproducibility, automatic changes etc) and seems to be overall better, but it’s a huge paradigm shift and step learning curve so many people get discouraged.
- Comment on Amazon union workers and the Teamsters have inked a deal 5 months ago:
I would say it has more to do with the size of a pool of candidates. If an Amazon warehouse employee is not happy Amazon can fire them and get another one. If an investment banker is not happy the company will accommodate them.
As a software engineer though, while I’m not paid as an investment banker I still feel like I’m paid well, I think my job would be better if it was unionized.
- Comment on Anon figures out how dieting works 5 months ago:
I just recently learned about liquid calories and why are they dangerous when you care about weight.
For those who are not aware. A liquid will be processed very quickly by our body. For example you get your favorite soda that has 150 calories your drink it, and your body processes it quickly, you urinate it but the 150 calories stay with you and you feel hungry again really soon so you eat another meal to fill your stomach.
- Comment on Anon figures out how dieting works 5 months ago:
Yeah, it is not easy.
We seem to have primarily high calorie foods. The reason people change diets to get some low calorie ones that keep them feeling full.
Another thing, but perhaps not as much related to losing weight is that food doesn’t exactly work like most people think i.e. it isn’t that we consume something then we get energy from it and then we excrement it. In reality our body absorbes the food and uses it for other functions. So unhealthy food still affects us negatively.
- Comment on Every damn day 5 months ago:
I think this bullshit is more prevalent today than in the past. Companies found more loopholes to go around (for example unlimited vacations[1]), the worker protections aren’t enforced as strictly.
I believe this phenomenon is likely US specific.
[1] unlimited vacations look great on paper, but with them the company no longer needs to track of 2 weeks of vacations, so they no longer need to pay them when you leave the company and not used them and also doesn’t have to force you to use it. The peer pressure makes you unlikely to take more anyway to not look like a slacker.

Why did OP take the effort to take a screenshot of a title, upload it then post this instead of linking to the article?
