why would you use brave with annoying crypto and no customization over superior Vivaldi?

>I have two chinese-born coworkers (who spent 20-30 years here in the us) in the same room. When we talk about china's expansion, I am always jealous of the public projects, infrastructure, ho…

similar thing happening to Samsung in China (soon also elsewhere) Samsung to exit China home appliance sales amid shrinking market share https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48045298 …

of course Samsung will blame it on the focus on AI and other nonsense instead of admitting they are unable to compete with domestic Chinese brands and are losing hard ever since they the applied doubl…

yup, this applies worldwide with some exemptions (Singapore), the closer you are to equator less motivation you have to develop various ways to survive since the land provides you with everything, fur…

European model can be better for employees, maybe not so much for employers, in US vice versa, everyone has different preferences sure you can earn more, but there are plenty of benefits coming from E…

you should always add salary during notice period if you are not expected to work anymore, it's essentially severance pay as well, though technically it's salary for no work

I was just curious why would anyone use Chrome over other superior Chromium alternatives (Vivaldi, Brave, etc.) other than Google account syncing (which I can understand can be pretty big deal for man…

Sure, I agree, not sure why you are downvoted for stating the facts, both have benefits, Europe in general is less flexible but employees are more protected with more benefits. All I wanted to say was…

well, everyone has different experiences, but just to make it clear, I was calculating ordinary salary during notice period into severance pay since in many companies it's essentially severance p…

"US employees will receive a minimum of 16 weeks base pay (plus 2 weeks per year worked), their next equity vest, and 6 months of COBRA." 4 months basic severance pay + 1 month for 2 years e…

thanks, went to flags in Vivaldi and just in case disabled all flags containing "gemini" and first five results for "model"

I fail to see scenario where Chrome is better than almost any Chromium alternative with exemption of Google account sync.

...or some Italian composer

I would more worry about storage space on some laptops with pretty small SSDs like 192-256GB of official capacity prior installing Windows, 4GB of that is already pretty significant part of storage sp…

So anyone can now place whatever they want in public space in UK or some people like Banksy are more equal than the other people? I find this statue offensive for double standards. This should go quic…

I assume Huawei is not cool anymore (since Trump banned them and sinophobic western countries adopted his baseless stance, US should have monopoly on spying their allies) and only Tesla and BYD can be…

that works only in theory, these robots deliver the food only on the street, so they might as well leave in restaurant since they make no difference for someone on 2nd or higher floor, most of the peo…

I'm pretty sure you can be father and have someone to take care of the baby in the night, your wife or paid nanny can do it, so omitting sleep deprivation from title is just sensational clickbait

it says Chinese in the title and even if it didn't say, it's already expected any innovation to EVs will for sure not come from EU or US

these robots can take only one order at a time (at least here in Prague) since they don't have multiple separated compartments and it takes ages to deliver one order (company claims 14 minutes in…

If they didn't use sidewalks, bike paths, pedestrian crossing or roads obstructing mostly pedestrians I think I wouldn't have problem with them, butt that's not the case so I dislike th…

I recently switched from iceraven to Cromite. If you have no problem with the new FF UI and don't mind a bit lower speed then iceraven is ok, if you can't stand the UI then Cromite.

besides already recommended Fringe, Millennium and Halt and catch fire I enjoyed at same time as X Files in 90s also new Outer Limits, opening credits were great and episodes are always thought challe…

what's the danger involved with ceiling fans (unless you are Korean)? now that I think about it I can only remember videos of people doing really stupid things with them, then being surprised by …
