With the advent of the space force, pretty much every space company is targeting military contracts (at least partially) since that is a huge source of government funding

I was including some of the 34-65 crowd in "elderly"

I think the relevant table is on page 13 "COVID-19 hospitalizations in unvaccinated and fully vaccinated individuals in Washington state by age group, February - December, 2021"

It shows that 79% of hospitalizations in the state are unvaccinated people and that of those, 3,000 are under 34, 11,000 are between 34-65, 7,000 are over 65.

So it is indeed largely elderly unvaccinated in the hospital.

I live in a very old studio apartment (built in 1909) and it has a separate kitchen that is the size of the kitchen in most of my friends' single family homes. It is probably ~1/3rd the square footage of the entire apartment. Obviously that's just anecdotal but I do think that the kitchen used to be prioritized much more, at least in apartments.

A new programming language which hides the fact that your code is running across multiple machines from you. Similar to OOP, you'll define some level of structure and the compiler will figure out how to best distribute it across the resources given to it.

Anyone else skeptical of their claim that the benefits of the plug in and the hybrid are the same? It assumes that electricity production remains the same as it is right now, whereas in reality it will likely become much more green (and electric car charging is a candidate to be even more green than general production since you can charge at peak solar hours very easily).

> we could have easily doubled our income if we were both working

How would the world work such that this was not the case? I suppose the government could pay one parent to stay at home with their children, but it seems like there will always be a sacrifice required if you want to be in a couple where only one person is working full time (particularly at a specialized career).

Ah yes well known unbiased news source "tri state livestock news"

I also don't understand why there's no lock that integrates with the app. Getting into Airbnbs is consistently inconsistent and confusing.

>it’s really impossible to go anywhere and enjoy it in peace

This is only true for a very limited definition of "anywhere". You can go to Yosemite in the peak season and easily find places where you can't even see another person.

ORM?

This hasn't been my experience at all. There are almost always e-bikes at the Ford stations (per the other comment maybe this was a one off issue) and the Jump bikes work just as well in SF as Seattle in my experience (no shortage of glitches in Seattle).

Is this due to some special technology or implementation details they used, or just the current going rate of getting your bitcoin transactions confirmed?

Personal anecdote: I had a job offer from Facebook and a couple other big tech companies. The Facebook offer was substantially better fiscally than the other ones and it was clear to me that they were having trouble hiring. Their initial equity grant has no cliff and the signing bonus was massive for somebody two years out of school: $75,000 cash in first paycheck.

However I ultimately turned it down because of ethical concerns about working there combined with a sense that people would not approve of my job choice. I.e. even if I don't find what they're doing ethically questionable (and I do, although I don't think they're so bad), I didn't want to have to explain myself or defend them to everybody when I mentioned where I worked. Just my two cents as somebody who was one of the 50% of candidates who turned down the job.
