> while take 4 weeks+ time off What if I told you, that even mentioning this shows how little free time people get in the US? There is actually no SWE job (and I do mean actually 0 positions, I watch job postings way…
> This isn't a counterpart because nobody is trying to explain a significant drop in tourism numbers to Paris. Actually there isn't much to explain. Every single person I know that has been to Paris has been…
> This assumes infinite demand which is not a good assumption imo. Yes, but "AI replaces people by improving productivity by 20-50%" is clearly a case of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lump_of_labour_fallacy. So maybe…
Starlink was also ridiculed. "Some upstart beating industry veteran at crewed spaceflight" was also treated as a ridiculous idea (see extra funding Boeing was able to extract from congress). But all those massive…
I am super bearish on Tesla but I still would take the side of "not going under" of that bet. The factories have value, and once the brand is de-Musk'd, it can have value too. So most likely scenario is being bought out…
> Less than 1 in 4 Americans voted for Trump Yea and it seems the 75% of population cannot do anything about Trump now. I wonder when people will wake up to the fact that USA does not actually have a democracy.
Just a nitpick: Nero was nowhere close to "the end of the Roman Empire".
Well SpaceX does not need outside financing anymore, even while continuing to build out Starlink and developing Starship. Seems like a bold claim to say Starlink is not profitable. But it is still not a business you…
Maybe it is not exactly culture-specific, but most of your post definitely sounds to me like "walking on eggshells" stavros mentioned. Tbh I agree that your citation of Linus' email was an example of not exactly…
I have not seen anyone else claim that Ukraine is not an European country. As for chance / motive to invade other European countries - for some reason Baltic states feel very threatened by Russia. Try to understand…
You still seem to confuse concepts of dominance and leadership, similarly how your opponents in the debate confuse dominance and violence. But I would agree with them that leadership does not require dominance.
So you are saying Hamas would have same domestic support if Gaza was economically at the level of e.g. Slovenia? People who complained about "open air prison" caused by Israeli "occupation" even before Oct 7 would…
> That doesn't seem to be much of a thing these days. If you ignore Gaza and whole of Africa, maybe.
That actually shows that helping poor people would help black the most. So why not do it?
Isn't the point of OP of this thread that most of those wart-fixes are pointless? I tend to agree, if you can't sell it as a ticket you probably shouldn't work on it. And "boyscout" PRs are pain to review.
The confounding is natural - If you even think about investing, then having a financial cushion is the best investment to de-risk your life. If you don't, you are screwed either way.
Thanks for writing this. Simple upvote is not enough, this was really great reminder how to navigate these messy topics.
Shuttle was heavy rocket. Decent in quite a few metrics. Also the arguments about not having heavy rockets has nothing to do with engines, it's either "we don't need them" or "just use propellant depots". Without…
Wanting F-1 capable engine is like wanting exact recreation of combat performance of F-4. No one involved has cared about that for more than 40 years. Just people who don't understand the tradeoffs so they judge stuff…
Starlink (v2 sats in particular) alone justifies Starship. Include HLS and potential Mars stuff and the comparison does not make sense. Don't listen to people who hate on SpaceX because of Musk. If you want to hate on…
You are on forum about VC-funded startups. You can get 50M if you really want and what you're saying is true
Public restrooms in Czechia often can take cards now. I imagine it works similarly in Sweden.
> If it was such money maker, surely there would be lot of competition offering zero fee bank accounts. In Czechia banks literally are competing like that, offering free bank accounts, sometimes even with bonuses on top…
> SpaceX didn't start with an existing knowledge base, talent and facilities either. This is just plain wrong, look up Tom Mueller's history.
Czechia did not have demographic collapse, and actually got fair bit of immigration from other Slavic countries, mainly Slovakia & Ukraine (pre-war, post we got even more obviously).
