   I totally agree but .. I feel companies evolve in an environment they do not control. If companies could just offer goods and services at a fair price without arsing around and be successful, I feel like we'd have a ton of such compan

   Thanks for your feedback. We'll look into making the chat less obtrusive. I also don't love aggressive chat boxes, but didn't realize Intercom did that on mobile.

   Wow, that's pretty harsh. I don't accept the characterization as a "brogrammer without ethics." I don't think anything I say would change your opinions, but I'm willing to answer questions if you have any you w

   This is prisonner's dilemma / tragedy of the commons. The best-performing ads made more money, anyone who didn't grab attention enough would be strongly pushed towards grabbing more attention by industry norms. It was ratio

    Police kill about 1000-1200 people per year in the U.S., depending on who's counting. See for example the Washington Post data. So it's not just tens over a decade.

    Now I'm confused. I thought you meant split the infra pieces into different software components (process, machine, etc.), not split them by domain. Can you give an example, and why it's good to split by domain?

    > separate out your infrastructure from both your product and business By infra, you mean for example a postgres DB? That makes sense. Don't want marketing to take down your website with a mail merge.

    I think Nano just handed out a fixed amount of tokens through captchas. Now no more will ever be created, but they can still be transferred.

    I am also rooting for currencies that don't use so much energy. I was intrigued by nano, but it looks like a pain to buy and sell right now.

    Used to bother me too, as a mathematician. Then I learned about linguistics. If enough people use words a certain way, then it's vernacular. Sadly, I think this usage is long accepted.

    ggplot? If your benchmark is plotting 2 million points, it may also be slow. However, I find its ability to rapidly prototype tons of different visualizations useful. I try to avoid needing to plot 2 million points anyway.

    1. Beware multiple tests: agreed. We could apply corrections (e.g., Bonferroni-like), but don't underestimate the logistical complication of this. Before a month starts, we don't even know how many experiments will be run (altho
