I disagree... while those are definitely better art-wise, they are not better marketing-wise. I imagine this is why the ai one won because the others do nothing to actually sell the fair.

There is no "trillions that go into SpaceX". You and others seem to have a massive misunderstanding about how the stock market works... they could have sold 10 shares at $50 and still have a valuation in the trillions... Market ca

$1000 would return $1010. The money comes from people who want to close their trades early rather than wait for the market to settle. Often times no one actually takes these offers and then it just sits in the order book.

I don’t think it’s any of the reasons listed in the article or the ones mentioned here either. I’ll be blunt, people don’t want to hire Gen Z because of bad past experiences with that generation. When 1 in 6 companies are "hesitant to

Clickbait. Leak has irrelevant and useless data. Why anyone would bother to "steal" this data I have no clue. Almost all of it could be collected if you scraped the site over time.

I am assuming its different for everyone. I have had digital delivery products (think cd keys) that were absolutely pointless to fight. I have also had service products and at least 50% of those are rejected even with concrete proof of the

You have hit the nail on the head but it doesn't even need to be wifi and it also doesn't have to be that complicated. They see that two devices are in the same area for a long period of time so they serve ads for other peoples we

Agreed. We have many "old" people that use our website and I can tell you for a fact that the "click here" is less confusing than some random blue link (which at this point has lost it's meaning because of seo keywo

It is Adam Back. Who is more likely to build ontop of some obscure code base called "Hash Cash"? Some random people that trolled the same forums or the original creator of it? Imo this "secret" is known by many people as

Adam Back. Ever notice how anytime anyone mentions his name as possibly being satoshi they get buried? Not a coincidence. Plus Adam had no work history during the dates that Bitcoin was created. Had created the system that bitcoin is based

I think what some are failing to realize is that many businesses are only now finding out that they are one step away from losing access to their websites. Before this wp engine vs Matt spat many of us genuinely thought that wordpress was a

Why go through trademark rather than licensing agreement for access to wp.org resources? If they are in violation of trademark why not just file a case against them? Why the selective enforcement of your trademark? Doesn't that essenti

The problem I have with this is simple and has to do with the lack of separation of entities. Automattic is a competitor with WPEngine. Wordpress.com is a competitor with WPEngine. Wordpress.org and the Wordpress Foundation IS NOT a competi

I think overhyped in the sense of NVDA market cap but not overhyped in the sense of the utility. NVDA is useful for large data centers where companies can be the middle man for queries. I don't think this will be the future of LLM&#x27

Better to have a company than not have one right?

Justified or not doesn't really matter. If your entire company threatens to quit then you made the wrong choice. Hopefully many of the old board is gone because a blunder of that magnitude shows extreme disconnect.

You wouldnt store any data at all on the blockchain. You would force every payment the goverment makes to go through a blockchain. Likely a centrally controlled one which would invoke no fees. On the other end the payment is cashed out for

A c&d is a nice way of asking you to shutdown before they sue you. Most companies will not bother unless they think they have a case against you. Your choices are shut down or stay up and hire a lawyer to defend you in the coming case a

Because they think their line of work shouldn't involve any risk.. They don't want to risk filling a unit at a lower price and only being able to raise rate 1-2% per year when if they held off for a year they can charge 15 - 20% m

Landlords are surprised when they have to deal with what every other business has to. Supply and Demand, and changing market conditions... He has the supply and not enough demand. Sit on your thumbs or lower your price?

I feel like the difference is about the product. On search engines its like you are browsing a catalog or magazine. You know what is an ad, and there are many options to choose from. With a Chatbot it is more similar to talking to a person

I am one of the fools who believed they wouldnt go the advertising route and have commented as much. To me it does not make sense to monitize this product for ads because it muddies the waters of truth and an ad free or local run LLM could
