I don't think any of those issues are commonly associated with, or attributable to, being a well-socialized young adult.

It's a pervasive problem among all gov contractors. Most don't pay as well as private market, and you have the added downside of needing a clearance in a lot of positions, so they try to make it up with "job security". T

Exactly. Who's to say Bob knows what he's talking about?

Yeah, personally I think a lack of IRL socialization would be a much bigger concern than a 3.0 GPA from a tier 1.

100% I can bring up a service, connect it to a postgres/redis/minio instance, and do almost anything locally that I can do in the cloud. It's a massive help for iterating. There is a learning curve, but you learn it and you c

Kubernetes isn't even that complicated, and first party support from cloud providers often means you're doing something in K8s inleu of doing it in a cloud specific way (like ingress vs cloud specific load balancer setups). At a c

Helm is quite often the default supported way of launching containerized third-party products. I have works at two separate startups whose 'on prem' product was offered this way.

Not at all. An order form and direct delivery would be way easier.

Car salesmen are guides and we'd get raped without them? Wild take.

No one here is saying the 1880's are the goal. We're discussing if kids not going outside and messing around and getting hurt sometimes is good or bad. I brought up "human history" as the logical extreme of the counter a

We obviously aren't going to achieve 0 unless we lock every kid on earth up in a padded room, which we aren't doing, so "more" or "less" is fine if the reward is worth the risk. Which is exactly the discussion

Rent in HCOL areas is more than 1600 a month. I live in a college town, hardly HCOL, and 1600 a month will get you a small apartment here. Looking online, median rent in the US for all housing types is over 2k.

I think a worse feature for them to have is consistency . Imagine being someone that has fallen through the cracks of software a significant number of employers are using... Basically soft-locked out of employment with no recourse.

> So what leads to an increase in production in one place leads to a collapse in the other? As noted, the disease benefits from warmer weather. Plants probably do as well, but that's moot when a disease is killing them.

I don't understand your line of reasoning here. "Asia is growing more citrus, so if a state in the US is growing less citrus, a global phenomenon can't be a contributor"? Did I get that right?

Global life expectancy is like 73. Life is hard, but lets not pretend most humans are wandering a wasteland in search of water.

Well... they are investing to make money, not to hold shares in a company forever. If they wanted to do the later they'd buy index funds and sit on them. Most (I'd bet nearly all) capital sources for VCs do both actually. Also: 1)

This is simply not true. Most startup founders are genuinely trying to build something that has value to the economy, and therefore society. Most fail early, most of what's left fails later, but some go on to be real, profitable, busin
