Some nuggets here. Totally agree with the second order effects of incentives and milestones. The author seems a bit overly enamored by SV though. It's really not all its cracked up to be. Stop trying to be SV. SV has produced some trul

I'm curious to get people's take on how they are approaching this migration. One thing that I am considering is keeping WhatsApp around without leaving any of my groups, but making very strong efforts to only send new messages thr

Give CamelUp a look! Great for kids or bigger groups! You also might want to give "Liar's Dice" a look - some of the variants are similarly great for bigger groups, and still rely heavily on strategy.

Focusing on the individuals is WRONG. Stop doing it! People are people, and - as far as capitalist societies go - money is success, and "skimming" is unfortunately the dominant and easiest strategy to get it. Blaming the individua

I don't know why more products dont follow the software pattern of cycling the alphabet. Pick a unique new name each time, and just run it down the alphabet for the first letter of the name. So easy.

I found it annoying until I added a git hook and got used to auto correcting. Its low friction for me now, and well worth it imo. If you run into a very large number of linting errors then you might naturally write code in an unidiomatic st

I agree with you that I find it more readable. However, I've spent a long time living with this exact RoboCop setting so I am probably very used to looking at this style. The author mentioned scanning by indentation which is likely som

What you are describing is tax fraud and is already possible in the current system.

lol ya tracking everyone would be really dumb but you don't need to do it. Many countries already have self reported high value assets as part of their tax filing process. Pretty easy to add a self-reporting step "Do you have over

by adverbly 6y ago
In many countries, reporting high value assets is already part of their tax reporting and is not an added step. For countries that don't, the added step could be as simple as a single checkbox: Do you have over 25M in assets? I'd

I'm not sure that the author's assessment that "36% accuracy rate" ... "there is no reason to doubt his date of 2029" follows. I'm no statistician, but my intuition tells me that if you drop 1/3 accur

It actually does take that much thought though! Social dynamics are extremely complex to model, and they are way more important than we think. There is a lot of complex game theory and metagaming going on. Most of it goes over my head, but

Paul is surely trolling, no? This isn't even close to realistic modeling. Most startups will spend many, many years worth very little. Well under the wealth cap floor. This means that if you don't own a unicorn then you'll li

I actually really like this idea. The model sort of reminds me of a cooperative. There is a cooperative for Outdoor Clothing in Canada and it had a reasonable amount of success.
