Why do you think Hal would have been Satoshi but then also been the first developer using his real name?
Satoshi's email was hacked and that wasn't signed with PGP I think the consensus is that the statement wasn't real
If that's the case why has Craig continued to gain prominence and have more and more sway over BTC? Bitcion SV is worth $4B now. He's been able to monopolize the mindshare on Satoshi and misdirect the narrative.
This is insane. Mess up with this and you could end up with a serious infection
Procedural generation for plants is actually pretty common already Most trees you see in video games are from middleware like Realtree
Even if Blender can't match any of these point solutions at their respective niches, I have to imagine there would be a ton of value in a team that all mostly works in a common tool they all know well a pipeline of…
They offer a Crytek derived game engine called Lumberyard used for the long-running Star Citizen scam
Not a valid comparison since those are core products of both companies. Google hasn't and never will open source Search.
PUBG was itself a commercialized version of (arguably better) Arma 3 mods with a bunch of royalty free assets + microtransactions. It still was printing money and top of the Steam charts for many months- I think it…
Alphabet has 120K employees right now. Ex-Google was a meaningful distinction 15 years ago. Today it does not remotely entitle you to being funded. Many VCs today recognize that Google is an extremely bureaucratic place…
The reality is that VCs are genuinely inclined to fund black founders since their funds are overwhelmingly old white men. This is an industry that cares a lot about not generating controversy. VCs got hit hard by Me…
I'm in VC and there are many reasons why I and my peers are not interested in yet another software product selling to gyms. They are extremely fragmented, hard to access, low ACV customers who are already well served by…
I was a customer at one of their gyms and the app was garbage. It frequently crashed and there were huge bugs with basic stuff like the dates I'd be billed for renewal being wrong. I didn't realize I was still…
The thing that really allowed DoorDash (and UberEats) to pull ahead was investing in partnerships with chain restaurants vs focusing on independent restaurants. Which hasn't necessarily resulted int he best product
Meal delivery doesn't just exist because people are lazy. It has been around a long time via the much more inefficient process of calling a restaurant that you already knew about, having someone spend time with you on…

DoorDash already serves as the back end for a number of other services. But being a courier company is not near as good of a business model. The aggregation element means that they own the end customer and payment flow,…

As I understand it typical occupancy rate is 95%. Looks like there are ~400K housing units in SF (not total bay area). That would imply there are 20K vacant units just for frictional reasons. I expect the number of…
You're right, you aren't "forced" to pay, you're merely deprived of the right to participate in temple rituals that are central to the community and teachings if you don't. And also have to tell your bishop, the most…
I've heard many times in the church that you're supposed to pay tithing even if you can't afford it and that "blessings" (often material) will make up the difference. It is patently dangerous financial advice. The…
Add to this the fact that he had been reported as being optimistic about winning his case and had never exhibited suicidal behavior before, even when he was facing a serious sentence
The general prison suicide rate isn't comparable- Epstein was in jail rather than prison, previously already on suicide watch from a supposed attempt and was more importantly possibly the most high profile prisoner of…
