As of the 2020 United States census, the Hoboken’s population was 60,419.
With an estimated 3.88 million residents within the city limits as of 2024, Los Angeles is the second-most populous city in the United States.
Yeah, cause they are totally the same amount of traffic and scope. Do you even know how to use statistics to lie because this was pretty bad. First day at the job?
My pivot from IT was to go into a front line support role that I hated but used to show my other non technical skills (“soft” skills) and moved into a knowledge org in the company. From there it’s building out your portfolio with accomplishments and objectives you did/helped on. I have since moved further away from tech and into a more public role and it is the soft skills which have allowed me to keep my job. Everyone knows the tech in IT - it’s why we’re originally hired. Being able to talk to people, to help them learn and/or grow, and have them like the conversation is what keeps me valuable.
It’s not the path for everyone but hopefully this gives you some ideas on where to apply your non-tech skills and your ability to be a person instead of a filled fix-it role.
Tesla sells carbon offsets so those aren’t the immediate losses that they seem to be.
FAANG exists because they have rock solid products with built in users. Their new business initiatives and decisions are woefully lacking. The new ideas aren’t bubbling up. Nvidia is the only one that isn’t staring into the abyss but their only products are iterative and once something revolutionary comes along they are sunk, like AMD v Intel these last 5 years.
Don’t think FAANG is a leader of anything except valuation. They are hopeless business leaders.
When I published my book “Deep Work” 10 years ago, I argued that email and instant messages were degrading our ability to concentrate on hard mental tasks. I recommended putting aside long stretches of time for uninterrupted thinking and treating this cognitive activity like a skill that you can improve through practice. The term “deep work” quickly entered the vernacular, and I started to hear people and companies use it without even realizing its source.
An opinion article hyping someone’s own work. Gross self aggrandizing. This kind of shit immediately removes my faith in the author’s intent and the article’s purpose. They should make their point without citing themselves.
Then you can complain about the price of gas!
So Vizio is offering dumb TVs without Walmart accounts? I am actually kind of interested.
AI put Generals out of work

At that price the cost of fertilizer will be astronomical and cause a spike in food prices as farms become unprofitable unless prices go up an order of magnitude to keep up. The moment you bankrupt farms is the moment famine enters the chat.
Oakland isn’t a total disaster and you have no comparison for the statement, just a will to say bad things about somewhere you’ve never been. Grow up, mature a bit, and learn how to be critical instead of hateful.
I spent a lot of the pandemic learning about farm boxes and local produce. Now I spend most of my grocery money on local produce and whatever the farmer’s market has available. I try to pay cash everywhere they will take it because tech bros get money for most wireless transactions nowadays.
Costco has been the great balancer. It is quite progressive for a public company and supports DEI policies. It also has just about anything you can want. I bought my car through Costco and I use the Costco credit card. For all things there are alternatives to tech bros.
Trump definitely supplied girls to rape island
Somewhere between Snow Crash and Hackers it became the dream instead of the nightmare.
Super useful! It’s also how to deprogram cultists and a likely approach to MAGA/AfD brained people.
I’m learning that Hegseth is getting rid of analysts and trusting the Averaging Engine to find datum that are obvious but still sound insightful to people who don’t read for fun.
The longer I love the more wisdom I see in Tolkien’s notion that evil is self defeating. It is terrible for a time but not forever. Evil uses the most incompetent people for the job.
“if you have nothing to fear, you have nothing to hide” should be quoted back to them as we ask for their address.
Yeah! These are some good fucking numbers. This is what we need more of, not the baseless news of “small community did what a metropolis couldn’t”.
