Or bad means "bad bet" (before the fact) instead of "unsuccessful bet" (after the fact).
The Oak Bro logo is very subtle. You immediately see the leaf, but not the negative space line of busts on bottom and line of asses on top.
I mostly agree with you, but organizing a bunch of stories that mention certain keywords is innovative and useful. And there is a big problem with the way the current system works: Meltwater is supposed to go negotiate…
A basic income guarantee is a far more important idea than free higher education or affordable housing. The argument for universal healthcare is that we're going to take care of the sick whether they purchased insurance…
> The market capitalization is only 500 million dollars. Emphasis mine. That seems crazy high. How many million dollars would you pay for all of the existing bit coins?
> impossible to maintain expert level skills in more than one or two language + library environments And the crappier your language and libraries, the more time it takes to be an "expert."
Yes, I don't think I phrased it well, but I didn't intend to assume that there is a single Robot Mega Corp. > The more humans we replace by robots, the lower the cost of goods will be Most physical goods have two…
You're looking at things from the viewpoint of society. There your argument makes sense -- of course "people" will continue to work. But that argument, that we'll just continue to work on things higher up Maslow's…

First, let's do the experiment with a billion dollars and see if you really just offer me 50 million.
Reading the summary you've linked to, isn't the implication for this thread that certain puzzle type questions, if they do a reasonable job of measuring general intelligence, are useful predictors of job performance?…
I almost wrote "uniform", but that seemed simplistic since it didn't take into account factors like age, number of children, etc. But if the majority of the wealth goes to the few owners of the machines, then the…
The following are mutually exclusive: a) All children have equal opportunity. b) Parents are able to spend money on their children. I've spoken with many people who are in favor of both a) and b) and don't see the…
