I think all of the comments you are missing the point. We beginning to see the outsourcing of critical thinking to a few technology companies. We’ve stopped valuing leaders that understand issues and can make sane decisions. Instead we pick

Yes it’s annoying but it also means increased revenue which enables them to invest more in the product. The new features released since I bought version 6 has me more than satisfied. Also using a password manager is one of the most effectiv

I’m seriously concerned that the market is going you crater in the next year, do what is the rational investment strategy? Trust Buffett and buy BRKB? Try to weather the storm with VOO? Buy treasury bonds?

A common hypothesis for why Nvidia is so hot is because they have an effective monopoly on the hardware to train AI models and it requires a crap ton of hardware. With DeepSeek it’s been demonstrated you can get pretty damn for a lot cheape

Exactly. For all their bluster the Trump Admin is making novel moves that wouldn’t be tolerated if they were in their own. They are hidden by the outcry around USAID.

It’s not in my head. Going back as far as 1992 George Bush was saying “The American lifestyle is non-negotiable” at an international gathering focused on climate change. This has proven true. It’s also spread across the globe and is a major

Honestly I’m starting to wonder if all the bluster around acquiring Greenland and annexing Canada is all focused on having land available for the United States when the southern and central states become uninhabitable.

Until the pain hits the wallet and stomach of the American middle class nothing is going to change. The ruling class and their media machine have people whipped into line and parroting back the talking points of the ultra wealthy. It’s goin

This is very cool, but it seems like a lot to build to optimize the load balancer. I'm curious why there isn't a discussion of "Power of Two" load balancers. They do a VERY good job getting close to near optimal load wit

It's great and I'm happy for you that you have a body that is such that you can do that. Many people do not have similar experiences. Often times people who are not able to do things like are labeled as having a lack of control or

The local decline in open software engineering positions has _nothing_ to do with AI. The best orgs are using AI to assist developers in building out new systems and write tests. Show me someone who is doing anything bigger than that, pleas

Interesting, Metformin is mostly commonly used to help treat high sugar levels in diabetics. I'm curious if this is the same mechanism or if its a novel mechanism. There's data to suggest that too much sugar can cause all kinds of

The vast majority of small businesses have no "exit" in sight. Instead they want to rely on solid business fundamentals. Sell a product/service for a profit. Typically the owners of the business get access to the profits prop

Let's ignore that most of the places people work are not publicly traded companies and pretend that any employee could buy stock in their employer. If that were the case and employees were compensated equally in stock vs cash, then yes

If we’re going to exclude the cortical areas associated with vision, you also need to exclude areas involved in motor control and planning. Those also account for a huge percent of the total brain volume. We probably need to exclude the cer

From one viewpoint, this is akin to a king marrying off his children to a rival kingdom. Having your CEO on the board of another company helps drive alignment and collaboration. It’s a solid business strategy. Sometime it drives long term a
