Takes too long to get to their first point about accounting. By the time I got to the first point about accounting, I was already bored. In reading the first point I realized it is too vague to be persuasive. Stopped there. Decided to look

I agree with ya. But this statement: >" it should be easier " applies to literally everything in existence :P challenges are good-- they result in growth.

Power asymmetries are not always and not simply the result of a lack of "diversity". Power asymmetry can be the result of a variety of interactions between a variety of factors-- not just "lack of diversity". For example

What’s funny to me is that people are only complaining about diversity in the US and Europe. Although I have seen a few articles about class based diversity in Latin America and India. Maybe I am missing something but I don’t see complaints

Self taught web app dev here. Most EEs and CS folks have told me not to study it. They said it’s not necessary. That it takes too much time and money given the fact that I’m already a “software engineer” with a few years of experience. Tha

At least there's a silver lining! I'd happily take expulsion for $20 mil in my (and a lawyer's) pocket!

How incredibly silly. Some people have so little to do with their lives that they're compelled to find things to be outraged about. I've used a similar mask many times-- bentonite clay-- I like this one: Aztec Clay Mask Here&#x27

I saw/heard this same effect from politicians in the US Congress & Former President. Politicians denigrating "wind mills" i.e. wind turbines. And exaggerating their fault in Texas' February 2021 power outages. Clea

Cool visualizations on your site! I like the multiple visualizations thing, plus you link to an academic paper. I'd just suggest... get a pro to make your logo for ya if possible. And, perhaps also grab a pre-fab template for your sit

Wait a sec-- So someone can write an opinion, and that's ok-- but hey: no one critique it, ok? But if I write an opinion-- that's not ok. But you-- you're allowed to critique my opinion. _______ Let's apply your logic to

I'm just sick of low effort articles where the author appoints themselves oracle/definer of the future. It results in devolution of knowledge and a disrespect of the attention of intelligent people. "he could be right" -

Clearly I arrive at this piece without the expectation of it defining the future-- I know better than to expect a pop tech piece to deliver to me a view of the future. format: blatantly unoriginal content: not persuasive, underdeveloped eff

Another "The future of <thing> is what <some person> says it is" without much more than a few paragraphs of explanation. No diagrams. I don't see much of a comparison between costs/benefits of alternatives.

It's so funny... Once a person clings to Marxism / Socialism, it's like that expression "when all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail." They begin to see Marxist-related thought patterns everywhere,

Great point. I suppose it depends on the location-- west of the mountains, in the mountains, or east of the mountains. With remote work, and an off-grid equipped van, I imagine someone who works from a computer can explore a large swath of

I'd say knock off more considerably than 10-20%, at least compared to this cost of living calculator: https://www.nerdwallet.com/cost-of-living-calculator/compare... $150k in Austin equates to $236k in Seattle (kn

In the FAQ, I'd suggest adding the words price & pricing. That way I can ctrl-f to either "price", or "pricing". To my weird brain, and after studying accounting, the word "cost" is more of a business

You probably don't want to hear this, so please excuse it if that's the case: I taught myself software engineering so I could be my own technical founder. To be honest, I think I'd want a 2nd technical founder before a non-t

I agree. I also wonder what degree of ego played into this. Who does Harvard contact out of the blue? If they contacted me out of the blue by email my first thought would be "Why would they contact me-- who am I? What have I accomplish

I suspect that's exactly why they did not provide specific details. Which for me, negates the value of the article. In which case-- this article is more of a "Don't get phished. But I won't show you how not to get phis
