I think there was actually a “darknet” version of altavista that was called Astalavista too. If you were sailing the high seas back then, or looking for the anarchists cookbook, for research purposes.

Interesting podcast on the topic

Yep, well put. I love working remotely, but would appreciate once/twice a year having an off-site to get to know some people in the company on a more human level, or so I know who has a dog, so they can send me pics. As you said, during work hours it’s hard to get away from the transactional nature of the conversation.

The other thing I’m always worried about, is when grads join the company. A lot are coming from an environment where they’ve been interacting in person on a daily basis, and now their only interaction is online.

I don’t even think any apps that use the API are allowed to use “Spot” in their name.

It cannot begin with “Spot” or be similar to “Spotify” in sound or spelling.

You know, I was very much agreeing to OP, until your comment. You make a convincing point.

Yes, thank you! I hate this constant narrative that back-to-office is always tied to commercial real-estate investments, or that there’s some magical tax incentive.

Usually what you have is: bank lends money to a commercial real estate company that owns the building. Commercial real estate company leases out office space to one or many companies. When those companies reduce or terminate their leases, the commercial real estate company struggles to pay their mortgage and defaults. Commercial real estate loses. Bank loses. And if commercial real estate had pooled investments to fund the building (along with bank loan), then those investors lose as well.

There are some large companies that own their own buildings, but that’s more of an exception.

I’m assuming the numbers must include retail stores purchasing the product to sell to their customers too? Or are these direct to consumer numbers only?

Thing is, language is constantly changing, so if enough people say it wrong, it makes it correct over time.

As an example, people have been using nauseous incorrectly for so long, that it’s now correct again.

Well what sort of engineering standards are these planes built to?

PC load letter!? What the fuck does that mean?

Just like in nineteen ninety-eight when The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer’s table?

“Che” is how Argentineans say “hey”. Che, boludo!

How do you do the ingredients for a recipe? Does it understand “1tbsp” and things like that?
