The other commenter makes an interesting point though that these behaviors really don't do anything but make people engaging with them feel that they are doing something productive against whatever they are protesting. ICE will still d

Absolutely. The quants have legitimate skills. The ibs mostly just got lucky with the big internship junior year that set themselves up for life.

You could do all that and maybe after many hours it might work, or you could also solve this in 5 minutes by just plug in the magic keyboard to the computer, stick it in a box with a cut out for the touchid sensor, and just stick your mecha

Generally universities take half the grant from the start and that's before taking fringe on top of salaries.

Seems intelligence is actually a bit antithetical to the idea of a stable society. Look at the rate of change of our species. Within our own lifetimes there is so much change that it eventually exceeds our abilities to property mental model

Maybe less "far out" than hypnosis is just straight up logical debates. This was a plot point in the Halo lore actually, with Mendicant Bias being reasoned with to defect against its own makers.

I feel like that hasn't been true for a long time. Companies no longer compete on featuresets. I mean take any tool you've used for 10-15 years, the trend is often less features, not more. And the irony is that its the products fr

Not sure how trade secrets are dismissing the point of profit being a cost.

C suite compensation is completely bonkers compared to what they actually do. That is all waste, whether paid out in base, equity, bonus, or whatever other benefit.

>What do you think happens to this profit? Where does it go? To expensive homes. Expensive vacations. Expensive cars. Expensive meals. Private jets. Buying a social media website. Etc. All waste. Finery.

There has been plenty of ink spilled on the inherent waste of the private contractor model that our government relies upon. These aren't unique ideas. They are pretty well accepted.

They are making an assumption that someone is buying when they go into the dispensary. Not necessarily the case. They aren't compelled to buy anything when entering.

YMMV. I tried to order one from a bar. It got confused when it got there, did a 3 point turn in front of me then left without me.

Depends on how much rain you are getting that can be expected.

For regular mowing sure. For reel mowing (e.g. golf) you will want to sharpen them.

Once again, profit is a cost.

If it was about reducing lifetime ownership costs, you'd be hard pressed to ever exceed what you pay for an EV with say a couple grand used japanese ice car with a basic 4 banger engine and manual transmission.

I am aware the US has operated in this reliance on for profit contractor model for a very long time. I just think it is stupid, costly, and only really serves to make connected individuals extremely rich, at the cost of wider innovation pot

Plenty of brilliant work is achieved on this earth without bribing c suite with yacht and private jet money. Funny too how it is never really the engineering team tasked with actually doing the thing that gets top compensation at an org. Al

People are getting hung up on how spacex reached that cost and how yes, it took innovation, iteration, and whatever else. I'm not denying that. What I am denying is that you needed to make musk the richest man on earth to achieve this.
