What industry blogs or agregators do you follow?

I work in tech and check a few sites pretty regularly. What are some sites for your industry that are similar to news.ycombinator.com?

  • Pffftft get bent. Providing military gear to Ukraine that was destined to be disposed of for reaching its end of life by sitting on a shelf doesn’t really cost the US much, other than on an accounting ledger. It’s either on the balance sheet as “N number of ATACMS valued at $X were disposed of for $Z (cost of disposal)” or “N number of ATACMS valued at $X were provided to Ukraine at a cost of $W (cost of shipping)”. Which end up being roughly the same.

    Regardless the munitions are gone and off the books. Both outcomes mean US arms producers get to make more missiles — which is money spent within the US on US jobs.

    So, who gives a shit? Let Ukraine defend themselves while Russia expends money and soldiers. Ya Muppet.

  • I’ve never purchased a home but I imagine it’s hard to find a good realtor AND trust them. There may be tons of great realtors who are worth more than their commissions but the bad ones probably say the same things the great ones do AND have basically the same headshot.

    I feel like I wouldn’t know if I had a good realtor until after the transaction, if at all, or until I’m fucked.

    The only time I’ve used a realtor was to rent a house and I am pretty sure she worked with the listing agent to get me to agree to pay $100/mo more because there were other people wanting to sign for the house. Which, I feel dumb for but didn’t realize until later. But I’ll also never know if that was the case.
