Ridiculous nonsense. Starlink satellites move to a disposal orbit after five to seven years after which they burn up in the atmosphere. Providing broadband internet access to the entire world is revolutionary. As far as the environment goes

I don't think so. There's a lot of legacy software that still uses it. I'd wager most COBOL developers are over the age of 50. Old as dust.

I didn't enjoy reading this. If I had the pleasure of meeting such a brilliant person I would try to listen and communicate their message. This reads like a hit piece about a senile old man and I'm only reminded a few times in the

I don't have the same approach of relentlessly optimizing every waking moment. I'm not sure it's healthy to look at life through the lens of someone on their death throes. Thinking about death makes me more nihilistic, if any

That's really strange. Only thing I can think of is the person is using multiple throwaway email accounts to join your newsletter. They are then marking all your messages as spam in an attempt to get your email blacklisted. Hopefully s

As a big investor in NFTs, this is terrible news. This is why I recommend expanding your portfolio to include tangible assets. If anyone wants a fidget spinner let me know in the comments.

That is a red herring and has nothing to do with what I said. It is also a highly controversial decision.

The first amendment has nothing to do with that. The first amendment protects the individual and the press from government censorship. As I said, the spirit of the law is to protect from censorship. Unfortunately social media companies are

The private business argument is weak as you're really pointing to the freedom that businesses employ. Quite obviously censorship runs contrary to the idea of freedom and the spirit of the law. Private industry does not have an inheren

There are 8 billion people on Earth and most of them will spend their entire life accomplishing nothing. I wouldn't worry too much. If you're so brilliant then prove it. Or are you too tired.

I'd recommend trying daily meditation for a couple weeks, see if it helps you. Otherwise check in with your doctor, you could have anxiety. It's normal to have these feelings every now and then. It's not normal to feel like t

I deleted my 14-year account when an admin suspended me for speaking my mind. Never had an issue up to that point. The content quality has declined dramatically over the years and the astroturfing is out of control. I just got sick of it.

You should have a deep understanding of why your product exists. Other people don't, they only see what is on the surface. I recommend Start With Why for more on this idea. Sales is a bunch of smoke and mirrors. It's the differe

Is it just me or did the AI dim the brights and then get confused by the dark spot it created? The double yellow and signs are clearly visible, what the hell.

I stopped reading, unfortunately. The word business used to be called busyness for a reason. You could probably read a bit before bed. It might have to be Dr. Seuss though. Audiobooks are another option.

I think so. Knowledge is power. You can get it handed down from an ivory tower but academia only has a monopoly on reputation, not information. It comes down to whether or not companies want to hire the stinky self-taught developers. I thin

I think most of the shops drinking the Agile Kool-Aid are following TDD or at least doing lots of testing. You're probably not shipping a DVD to Staples or whatever so a bug won't destroy your business like it used to. There is a

Are people really that adamant about blocking ads on the web? I don't understand why people think it's a good idea to remove the primary source of revenue for content creators. At the most it amounts to a very mild annoyance and a

Surprised Apple is a part of this given how goofy they are about making everything proprietary. So the idea is you can talk to Siri, Alexa, Cortana, or Assistant to control your home, your computer, and possibly your car. Kind of amazing re

Unsurprising given how YC is so focused on growth. This post is a mixture of scarcity mentality and crab mentality. YC is doing great work so I fail to see why they should do less.
