Build one myself and make a ton of money. Or wait for the next guy/company to do it.

This goes with calculator to do basic math, contacts apps to store phone numbers instead of remembering them, and watches to tell time imo. Sure we could use our brain power with old techniques to do these, but why? I don't want to do

Who even makes the decision to drop having a standard bar to verify students? And what possible benefit would that have?

I'd challenge you to point out specifics that are industry wide, not just one company that happens to abuse its employees.

Came here to say exactly this. If people don't like building tech that's one thing. But the problems most of this thread are discussing are just people and organizational problems. If you want to live and make money you're pr

100% Bandwagon-ers who parrot media/youtube/socialmedia. Waiting to be told who to hate next.

"For some reason" is that people do not watch it. Once you get a taste of "bad" it dominates.

Is it even a problem that so called goal posts are moved? That's life. Life changes and us along with it. "Who Moved My Cheese?"

These "secrets" that are being hidden are basically on the same level as gary tan's list of super uber powerful prompts. None of it is actually that crazy that everyone else could think up. What I've noticed in my own ex

Ok yes, pushing positivity into the universe is better than pushing nothing or negativity. But there are people who will flatter purely for gain. I think being aware of which is which is very useful. Also who is giving the compliment will f

Well, that's fine until your teammate does all of those things by default and gaps show up between them and the rest of the team.

Since you're already in this optimizing mindset -- do as much as you can to improve/optimize your mitochondria and lots of these issues get better.

But aren't they pricing based on how much it costs to show the film? Which in turn is how much the studios and distributors pay to make/market the film? Which is in turn driven by costs... Which are basically large bets on if a pi

This mindset is fine (it's mine essentially too). But it absolutely has to be combined with verification/testing at the same speed as code production.

What's an example of data that might have been stolen?

by ap99 5mo ago
This sounds horrible to me.

by ap99 5mo ago
100% agree. I want to buy from a company whose goal is to make the best products, not make the most money. You optimize differently for each.

His comment is more of a general commentary that east African countries are notorious for doping. Like, if we find out the top two finishers here doped very few would be surprised. That said - it's still an amazing accomplishment.

It absolutely is a fair comparison. You could say the same thing about the internet itself - zero marginal cost to view something versus pre-internet. I'd have to buy a print, visit an art gallery, go to the place in person, go to the

Can you explain some of these alternatives that are so bad?

If I see art and get inspired by it, then paint my own thing and make millions do I owe my inspiration money?

It's fine for now. Fast forward even 100 years and tell me what population numbers look like. Then another 100 years.

And you have a problem with that? Why?

I'm amazed that people see America as different from any other country in terms of who should be allowed in and what constitutes bad behavior. Being in America is a privilege that can easily be taken away. Guests of America should walk

How is this insane? The US isn't some global free zone where everyone has a right to come and go - do as they please. If you came to the US legally with a visa. Great. When you signed your visa documents there were some questions they

If this person was on a visa, this is enough of an excuse to start looking at the fine print to see how I can get this person's visa revoked.
27.
by ap99 5mo ago
Yes, a visa can be revoked just that easily. It's a guest pass. When getting a visa you're basically asked to agree to America's terms of service. Violations can be found pretty easily in the fine print if someone is really l

Women can help the front line fighters but if I was running a country I would not want to put a large number of women on the front, especially young women. Sure they can fight and kill. But a country that loses its ability to make more peop

Who would realistically not want to cash out? 1. Someone so purely interested in the tech and not money they'd give up the wealth 2. Governments, specifically the ones that don't consider a few billion to be a lot 3. Someone who&#

I have no idea about any of this stuff - but if I were trying to hide my identity I would go out of my way to misalign my real self with my hidden identity. e.g. Pick a name that puts people on a false trail.
