You could technically footjam, just need to show the kids enough BMX or fixed gear videos first...

Why should everyone pay equally, rather than people that currently store their private property for free on public land in some of the most expensive real estate in the country?

16% of six-figure earners is the really shocking part here. They make 100k and don’t have a 401k or IRA? What?! How?!

Ah TF1, TF2 (err... hmm... that's something else) had a normal campaign, and a very very good one at that.

They're complaining about developing software for Google platforms, not working at Google. The platform will get dropped because it no longer has the opportunity to fuel more L6 promos.

I think the obvious notable exception is Android, which is not going anywhere and which now has a fairly delightful development experience with Kotlin and Compose.

Are you in New York, or are cops crushing candy all day instead of actually doing anything useful a nationwide problem?

Yes maps.me

I’ve used this app as an offline maps tool for travel for a long time, when I got it I thought it was just a fine OSM client.

Then years later I hear it was running crypto nonsense (what) and was involved in FTX (what), but out of laziness I’m still using the thing because it can’t do any upsells when I am offline anyways.

Any recommendations for a good iOS offline map app that’s just a map app?

“Unlimited” means there is no limit, so logically it means a few months should be fine. If a few months not fine, I think a reasonable request would be to define the limit and claim that instead of “unlimited”.

I work at place with about 5 work weeks off, which is a lot for the US, and there’s never any question about whether you can use your time or not because the number of days is exactly specified. I like that better than a vague “unlimited” (but not actually) policy.

Outside of this Google case, that’s what predictions markets are, they’re for gambling.

The Google case turns out to not be real money, but it’s weird that the article never said that, and it’s weird that the author responded with three points of whataboutism instead of just saying “it wasn’t real money”.

If someone wrote an article that Google set up a roulette wheel in the microkitchen and employees “bet” on it, yes I’d assume they were running an actual casino and find that weird too!

Well, that explains it. I didn’t see that mentioned anywhere in the article, but maybe I missed it not being real money. I don’t think there’s any legal risk then.

1. No, Google isn’t taking actual money bets from their employees.

2. No, Google isn’t taking actual money bets from their employees.

3. What employees do with their vested RSUs isn’t at all the same as hosting an internal gambling platform. Once they are vested, employees own the stock, they can do whatever they want. One could sell them all and use the money to bet on roulette, which I think is obviously gambling, but that’s also obviously not Google hosting a gambling platform internally?

I’m just surprised that Google hosting a platform where employees gambled was… allowed? This isn’t a moral judgement, I’m surprised that Google was operating a gambling platform internally and legal etc. thought that was a good idea.
