You are very much missing the point. If you read the one thousand page postmortem on the invasion of Iraq - lots of blame to be placed on civilian leadership and intelligence. A few: The core reasoning (WMD) was the CIA…
Evaluating a business is tough. VC is like that because many of them missed many boats of very profitable startups in 2001 thru 2010, where "stupid business trick, now with software!" was almost always an OK bet. AI is…
Again, the Black congressional representatives (which, due to districting were mostly representing Black people) were rather openly upset with him...for not going even harder. That is difficult to square with Nixonian…
Ehh, sort of. The congressional black caucus were ardent supporters of the war on drugs https://www.wnyc.org/story/312823-black-leaders-once-champio... So I'm pretty sure that whatever motivation Nixon had, the Black…
The state does not like those drugs because society does not like those drugs, and in the case of certain drugs, like heroin and other harder drugs we have decided that it is rational to attempt to keep them off the…
No it will not. Larger incomes are only larger because of industrial machinery, the same process that makes it more expensive to buy "organic' is what drives income up. Software engineering is so well paid due to these…
Breakneck capitalism, so to speak is why I can get almost any material , consumer or professional, delivered to my door in a few days - including things that would be considered exotic a year ago, at a tenth the price…
I unironically disagree with this, structured data is incredible and powerful. But an important part of the early internet was "its Just Text". And in fact, the reason why JSON is so great is that if you want to use it…
Alternatively, you have gotten used to Google providing you free services out of the goodness of their heart. This model was sustainable when the internet was adding millions of users per year, but as internet access…

Livelihood of employees is also a false start, unionization and the accompanying high wages are also a significant factor in the disparity between Western industry and China.
So the ideal blub language will be whatever language is too new to really be the legacy thing with tons of black magic you just have to know, but also too old to include tons of new ideas in language design the…
Nobody cares about invisible good solutions, because invisible solutions are simple - and developers are to one degree or another, rated on the degree of complexity they can deal with and how smart they can be. It is…
Top talent does not exist. This problem exists at big tech and startup, in companies that spend fractional multipliers of the average salary on engineers as well as those who pay poorly. In this environment, if your…
Price discovery was brought up, but think about it this way - if Good A is plentiful in Market A and scarce in Market B - prices will be very high in B but cheap in A. Robber Baron Capitalist comes in and says "hey wait…
This is a half of a good idea, but frankly every road mile traveled, airline flight, walk to the grocery store creates some number of dead people - I find this reaction from SF to be concerning because we appear to be…
Problem being that despite the fact that getting your content hoovered by socials is stealing ad revenue - Facebook etc al have declared themselves the only sites on the internet that matter, and if they aren't linking…

People willing to take risk on Wish because they are spending frivolously and would like to spend less frivolously. Scams are high, but not so high that you won't usually get what you asked for.
The list of things the commenter you're replying to brought up, in addition to "be attractive", is table stakes for receiving an iota of romantic attention from women. We talk a ton about unrealistic beauty standards,…
What would a college that aimed to teach Web Development as a specialty actually look like? People look down on bootcampers, but it always feels to me that 99% of what is taught in university programs is similarly only…
"Two junior devs and a keurig" - that will totally wreck the system by refactoring it to "modern patterns" without bothering to understand what it actually did. But it's OK, they're younger and therefore better. Thus,…
Similarly, however - urban cores want suburban business without having to deal with the low tax revenue of actual bedrooms. The city of Chicago is instructive, the city is (very slightly) subsidized by suburban…
Yeah see this is the problem - urbanist aesthetics demanding everyone live a very particular lifestyle, which includes a lot more than just urban living hamstringing projects.
We do that, it's called imprisoning people for a very long time. This is generally unpopular among liberal and left leaning spaces, and is only marginally popular in right leaning ones.
