I'll take "inflation" if it means trillion dollar spending packages are more likely to reach human citizens instead of corporations.

The article is from 2015, but nothing has changed. Realistically, I think the US University experiment does a good job teaching this with first-hand experience. Giving a kid significant access to money they'll make in the future, surr

They are a good deal and I had replaced at least six. My assumption was it's just a manufacturing defect since it's low cost and mass produced. And I'll buy the same ones to replace them. Also note, these are spotlight LEDs t

True. In Florida, 1/3 of trucks are raised so there occupants have to literally climb in. These are commonly adorn with "Trump" and "Don't tread on me" bumper stickers and even massive flags (because you know,

I've had a noticeable amount of cheaper (WalMart) LEDs burnout in less than a year. But my Philips Hue lights have been running strong 4+ years now :)

Much. The parent comment reads like a mix of severely lacking empathy and selfish grandiosity. This guy would probably also agree he should have 500+ kids to spread his blessed seed to the world.

What makes you so sure? Personally, that bubble burst for me a long time ago. I hope I'm wrong. I'd love a new insight or even any tips that might give me more of a chance to see that discovery.

Sorry to hear about your ongoing issues. Sadly, it's the same story thousands of times per day, often for people experiencing the final moments of their lives. The healthcare insurance industry absolutely needs to be destroyed. One day

This isn't loading for me(mobile or wifi), which I find weird since it's hosted on substack. Edit: seems like all substack pages are down for me (except home). Not a good look for a service that hosts something so simple to get ri

It's quite amazing to see that people still living so remotely, in 2021. I wonder what most of them are accomplishing by using the mail. Do they have family they communicate with? Maybe children that have grownup and relocated?

It depends on the algo. So not if it's optimizing for least placements to insert that would clear a row.

Yes, because even when those implausible ideas fail, your more likely to learn something than when experimenting on an existing hypothesis with just a minor change.

Mighty is a good idea, marketed to the wrong people. I mean, who wouldn't just upgrade their computer? New software is a cost, even if it's "free." I'm sure there's a niche, though. Like low-paid workers needin

Yeah, it's a sad state of affairs that would be remedied by improving education for the undesirables, but then the desirables wouldn't have as many of the high paying jobs, and their parents don't want to complain about littl

In this perfect new world do bad decisions also haunt you forever? Like student loan debt, your ETH reputation will follow you through bankruptcy (but obviously crypto-vestors are all too financially savvy to worry about that).
