OK, businesses that want to have unvaccinated people in their stores will be able to do that.

OK so we are on the same page. If every private business requires a vaccine, the people who don't want to get vaccinated can just do something else other than go to businesses.

Yes, cuts that get infected can cause problems for the whole human system. What definition are you using? How many people have died from the vaccine?

by bob33212 5y ago
True, And people are not calling businesses that require shoes socialist. Social media is making all these idiots act like the world is ending if someone requires a vaccine or refuses to get the vaccine.

Obviously I can see shoes on people's feet easier than I can see antibodies inside someone. But the point isn't how I find out if you are wearing shoes or not. The point is that someone is telling you that you have to do something

How is this any different than requiring people to wear shoes in specific locations? Some people prefer not to wear shoes, but for the legal liability and the risk of injury many locations require shoes. Don't go to those places if you

What about the lives that have been saved? Do those not count? Just this week a drunk driver passed out and the Tesla safely slowed down to a stop. What if that guy was in an Audi and ran over a child while passed out?

It is really frustrating when you are a very hard worker and very good at your job and then find out that other people are not getting things done. Watch the Michael Jordan documentary if you don't understand this.

I don't know why the crypto people expected anything else. They though that the government would just say: "Well since you have this cool new anonymous database technology we will just let you make billions of dollars and not tax

This is my biggest problem with all the people promoting entrepreneurship for everyone. If everyone took two years off to start a company there would be no one keeping the lights on.

In 2007 I ran an automated testing team for a product that had 60M in revenue. It was just me by myself. Today you can find startups with less than 5M in revenue with 5 people with the same productivity. Organizations have expanded to fill

Yes that can help, but VMs are still either Linux or OSX or Windows, and they all require security or other updates that will eventually need to reboot the system. Also the processors are different.

by bob33212 5y ago
Persistent people are much more likely to ignore their misses and focus on their hits. Someone that hits 10M in revenue may have pivoted multiple times when they were below 1k in revenue trying to get traction. They probably don't even

Yes it is very similar to dieting. Generally people get Bored/Nervous/Sad/Angry and try to eliminate that emotion with a hit of dopamine via some external input like Food/Sex/Drugs/Entertainment instead of reco

Some software was written for Mainframes that effectively NEVER reboots. So you have to modify it to support reboots easily, but it was written in COBOL or and old version of C and compiled with an old compiler. So it isn't that easy t

Yes part of our accounting system is still running on Cobol from 1982, but don't worry it has been upgraded to the AI Cloud and it only costs 200M a year to keep running.

I was in college and it seemed that the first IPOD was overpriced and just a "cool" thing to buy. There were other MP3 players that were cheaper coming on the market. But I quickly realized the risk is too high if AAPL continues t

Thanks for being honest, far too many people cannot admit they are wrong and double down and call Tesla a fraud only making them look worse in the future. I've certainly been wrong about companies before. I shorted AAPL for a week in 2

I bought at 48k car in Q1 partially because of the autonomy potential. If FSD doesn't meet your expectations then don't buy it.

Let's circle back to this topic in 2 years when you can explain that Ford just needs another year to catch up.

I have been hearing this since 2014. What is the holdup? Why is Toyota not going to sell 1M electric cars in 2022 if they have such a great company?

That seems most likely. They thought that it doesn't matter if they back these tethers with BTC because BTC is a better investment than the UDS anyways. Once they went down that path they had no way of getting out other than printing m

Don't ever go to a bar in the evening, you will be very uneasy when you see people 5 drinks deep pull out their keys.

If every driver on the road today was never drunk/distracted/enraged I would agree, but the reality is that humans driving cars kill other people every single day. We should fix this with a better system. Tesla and Waymo seem to b

I know someone that refuses to shutdown his startup. He loses 500-900k/year on it with no end in sight. His other company makes 3M/year. So he can go on for quite a while.

And then there are good ideas that are impossible to execute. "Software that identifies all discrepancies between data in different systems" for example. Sounds great but in practice that is just ETL and analytics. Nothing new.

If you don't need it, then don't use it. This goes for all tools. I'm old and I've been using chroot jails since 2005. So I was never really impressed by docker. But if I ever needed to use it for scalability or dev reas

Yes, it seems that the Fermi paradox implies that other civs progress beyond what we consider signs of intelligent life. The great filter seems less likely as we get close to colonizing other planets, and then other solar systems.
