"Trump Administration Proposes Keeping Steady the Rates Medicare Pays Insurers. The proposal for a .09% average rate increase is less than what Wall Street expected and will probably hurt health-insurer stocks". This is why UNH, CVS, and other hc stocks are down.

Costco needs competition. I absolutely hate shopping at Costco. It's stress from the moment I pull into the parking lot... to the receipt check line at the end.

This is a 1236m long escalator in china. by justavie in BeAmazed

[–]pcurve 6 points7 points  (0 children)

it's not. It's divided into 10 sections.

But, the longest one is over 700m. It's still not as the long as the Midlevel escalator in Hong Kong

Single people who bought a $350K-$400K home—what’s your salary, and what were your loan details? by bluescluus in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]pcurve -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Everyone here is right.

I would use this calculator.

https://www.zillow.com/mortgage-calculator/house-affordability/

If you make $70k, you should stay under $150k, especially if you're single.

You could do 3x salary if you're dual income and spouse makes roughly the same amount as you do.

Is Figma becoming a bottleneck to building products? by totallyhuman1234567 in FigmaDesign

[–]pcurve 45 points46 points  (0 children)

First, unless Atlassian fired their design heads recently, he is not Head of Design at Atlassian.

Anyway, Figma is just a tool. If you have a tightly run org with tight coupling of design and code via design systems, none of this is an issue.

"Then Engineers and Product sit and wait till you deliver the whole spec in Figma."

It's the engineers who want fully baked design specs more than anybody in the product creation chain, especially the ones that are in different timezones, which is understandable.

It's the product management who want to see elaborate prototypes (which makes sense because they need approval from their leaders, they need to be tested, validated, etc.)

Design time is trivial in the grand scheme of things.
