All power to that engineer. From an HR standpoint, Google might be right, in the same way that VW would have been right to fire an employee who disrupted meetings when they built cars for the Nazi regime.

Good for him. The reality of the genocide is getting harder and harder to keep out of our ostensibly "politics-free" tech bubble.

Trees themselves are useful because they support biodiversity such as small mammals, insects, all the useful things along a forest floor. can't do that with asphalt.

Removing parking lots will increase public support for all of the other things you mentioned. It's easier to start with tearing out parking lots and if necessary, cap parking prices, in addition to the other decades long projects

Good point. I would imagine/hope there's some kind of compressed air device that would inflate upon impact with water.

What a joke. May as well add "Only if the traders promise not to do it again" to the headline.

> Starting tomorrow, we plan to allow limited buys of these securities,” Robinhood, a popular trading app, said. “We’ll continue to monitor the situation and may make adjustments as needed.

Right right, I mean the face-value marketing "major principle", the one I was foolish enough to trust for a while.

Sure with broad strokes, it generally sucks when a tech company makes unilateral decisions for its customers, whether that's restricting which stocks you can buy or whether you can put unauthorized apps on your iPhone.

But I find it particularly egregious because the major principle of RH was that it was on the side of the everyman rather than institutions.

What a betrayal of their customers. Really going mask-off with what it means for a startup to "democratize" an industry: allowing the little guy to chip in, but never actually compete with the big boys.

I'm quite excited about this. I think it will lead to a reduction in "brain drain" here in the American South. Always bummed me out that the top college graduates tend to end up moving away to CA or NYC. Now they can still have those great jobs and contribute to their home or chosen states' economies.

I'm pleasantly surprised that California's firearm law is so strong, that issuing a few concealed carry permits would be even on the radar of the executive team. Contrast that to the stress I felt knowing a Best Buy coworker (several years ago) carried a gun on him during Black Friday sales!

Oh that's pretty sweet!

I wish I knew which life milestones were important and which ones I don't have to worry about. Or at least a more structured guide to life from someone I admire or trust. I'm a single 25 year old software dev, and am doing fine in most aspects of life, but feel like I'm missing some feelings of accomplishment and fulfillment. I guess what I'm looking for is a way to calibrate my feelings and emotions and general state of life.

What is it about the M1 MacBook that would allow this functionality that a regular bluetooth-enabled computer couldn't?

Ha, the other day I was looking into how to report the page, and decided it wasn't worth the effort and probably would never be seen by a human. The power of HN!
