   Comparing a country of 335 million to countries the size of some of the USA's smallest states is a bad way to look at data.

   Anecdotal hearsay. Coinbase has nearly 5000 employees and they found 2 unverified examples of racism. Does that mean its a systemic problem? Why does have a crypto exchange have to take a stance on "racial justice"? What does that

   I like my high wage. I would get paid half of what I got paid today if I lived in one of those places, if not less. Why would I want that? I have everything I want here and more. I already pay high taxes too. > Global Social Mobility Ind

   Most of the countries 1-27 are homogeneous nations with populations below 5 million. They all have low wages too. The floor is raised a bit but the ceiling is lowered massively for what you can acheive. I don't want to live in a capped

   Looks cool but I don't like to push to paid managed services like dbt. Rather use something like Airflow but its not as easy to use for most teams.

    Most companies taking VC money are doing that, not just AI companies. A startup a friend works at had a company offsite earlier this year, like 50 people, that cost almost $300k for a few days. They rented fancy airbnbs, went on booze cruis

    During Q4 2022 the average US adult spent 294 minutes per day with TV, down slightly from 303 during Q4 2019. [1]. Nothing says restorative and important like sitting stationary on a coach watching TV for 5 hours per day while obesity and m

    I'll hear the research, but it won't change my mind. I just want them to stop because its killing them. They aren't young. Every time they use is a major rolling of the dice. Many an ER visits have occurred. I don't real

    Your argument is tired. There is no such thing as a functional heroin addict. Most don't quit after a 20 year on and off relationship with it. They die and usually cause mayhem in the process - to society, their loved ones, the healthc
