Unclear from article (at least, for me) how much of this is existing stock grants only now vesting, vs. approved raises/new grants/etc.

Not that it particularly matters


big compensation at the top with tumult for the folks at the bottom is...not a good look.

I'm guessing it's because the developers either have a different speciality that they focus on, are employed to support specific hardware, or both.

Step one: join local bike coalition.

Step two: become a single-iseue voter and only vote for their endorsements.

Only half joking here.

It's not perfect in my city, but it is getting better, which is awesome to see


in the past 7 or so years that I've lived here it has gotten way way better. The pandemic helped a ton (slow streets implemented in a really great way among other things).

Oh no! What will Stanford, CalTech, Berkeley, Harvey Mudd, UCLA, and other California schools do!

My point is that him being fat is completely unrelated to him being a horrible person.

I don't care about offending horrible people; but being overweight and being a horrible person are entirely separate.

Pressure cooker stuff (Instant Pot here, but anything works)!

Beans are dirt cheap and homemade refried-style beans are fantastic. Don't be shy with the oil (neutral/canola, avocado, refined coconut all great). MSG also helps. Play around with pinto and black ratios (or go more exotic!).

Add to that some Mexican style rice


toast in a pan (before putting in rice cooker) with tomato paste, veggie bouillon, salsa, whatever, and then cook in rice cooker as usual. I like jasmine the best for this.

Can't go wrong with Mexican style beans and rice IMHO. (And in addition, you can feed them to dinner guests if you like


who doesn't like to build their own burritos?).

(Unless these folks won the Nobel prize and then switched fields.)

Yes I realize this is incredibly pedantic...

Affordable Care Act, LGBTQ rights, marijuana reform...not to mention a Black man was president, and a Black woman is the party nominee.

Yeah, it sucks that progress is so slow, and yeah, it sucks that some things have gone backwards. But there has been a huge amount of progress in the past however-many years. We went from "don't ask, don't tell" to having a Catholic president openly support gay marriage in a relatively short time.

Using Harris' Glock anecdote as evidence the party is moving to the right is just lazy editorializing IMHO. Almost as lazy as just asserting that the party is moving to the left because of the issues that you decided illustrate the left-right difference...

Maybe don't use body shaming terms though? That's just lazy, and it's mean to other people, not just the target of the insult.

This election isn't about "which one," it's about voting vs. abstaining.
