About 10 years ago I found an office a mile from my house for $250/mo and I haven't looked back. I could not work from home with kids.

I have never gotten over the old android radioactive phone ( with the pop out keyboard, can't remember the name of it) and this fxtec phone looks really fun. Just wondering if anyone has it and has any advice on whether to buy one. Thanks for any info.
Texas, you'll recall, has creationism in science textbooks. Techs affair with Texas will be short lived as i don't think tech people are going to want their kids taught Texas science.
I was excited then annoyed. I hate the SO moderators. It makes no difference to them how many people seek the answer, if they deem it off topic all those people are out of luck.
The post and fox news are absolutely light weight versions of the national enquirer. Regardless, Twitter can do what Twitter likes. You can start your own Twitter if you like. Twitters rights are as precious as fox news's.
Climate change is the new jesus. If you have faith it will just be true that there's no problem here.
Thanks for everyone's input, i ordered the thinkpad x1 carbon, first ibm computer i've ever bought (for you younger folks, lenovo is rooted in ibm), will post on how it goes. thanks again.
i said "laptop for dev work"
because i do a ton of travel while working and i have been spoiled by the macbook air, which is the nicest physical device i've ever owned and it's hard to go back. the huawei comes close, but the quality was just so bad

My huawei matebook x pro has just lost its USB for the second time. The first one was replaced under warranty. Since half the screws have fallen out of the back and since I only got 2 good years out of it, huawei is off the table. Can anyone recommend a super thin powerful laptop for dev work? I actually loved the huawei with Ubuntu but the manufacturing quality was so poor I just can't go...
Great product, great domain, and a great cause (not that you're a charity), good luck, this is really a great business
This is so self elevating it makes me sick. Buy the car or don't but don't use it as an excuse to show how great you are
I never understand these stories. Why don't people just move?
These are the grossest human beings you will ever meet (Buffalo native)
This is probably a good idea. Nothing else is working.
I totally agree. Consenting buyer and seller, this is a leftover from the Mayflower (no dancing kind of thing). At some point the world should just stop wasting money on preventing things that humans want. Prostitution, pot, etc., will never be stopped because people want to buy and sell it.
Anyone ever get jitsi to stay connected? We use Google meet daily but it's still half baked, we actually liked jitsi but could never keep it from dropping

This reads like a teenage girl rolling her eyes wrote it.
Atheists being militant and god not being possible can coexist. Belief in god is irrational, it's unrelated to atheists personalities.
Yeah agreed. If everyone was a developer and a security expert, Bitcoin is great, but instead its a massive hobby that has serious risk like what happened to this poor guy.
Qanon is just another religion gullible people believe something without proof because it feels good.
If you love to code just keep doing it is excellent advice.
Anything over a threshold requires bidding (usually rfp process). There are only like 20 cities that have money, everyone else is scraping buy. If you can deliver value for $100 / month, you can make money, otherwise you're looking at the rfp process. There are rfp aggregators like rfpmart and others that capture about 50% of the rfps out there. You should also be warned that there probably is competition out there even if you were unaware of it.
I laughed out loud, well done
I miss hipchat, I truly don't understand why slack exists
I think it's because they want push notifications
Why can't they generate cash?
