It's like getting a HBS MBA. Sure, once you have it, it's easy social proof. YC gives up equity. If you don't have any prior experience, it's good, but not for experienced enterprise founders in b2b saas startups. The la

Spaghetti: wall / money: bonfire; occasionally: winning lotto ticket makes the IRR for the fund/angel. Don't throw out the winning lotto ticket. Oh well. ;-)

Would the mortality rate of prescribing warfarin prophylactically to middle-aged women for 3.5 weeks be less than 4 / million? What's the mortality rate of seasonal flu and MMRV vaccines?

/s woosh. LOL. ;-) It's called tenement housing, in any case. Split the living room in half and rent the large walk-in closet, now a 2 bedroom is magically a 5 bedroom like an airline employee crashpad. :) Some friends of mine wer

Sorry, but you're spouting nonsense without knowing the facts. In the US alone, there are over 17 million vacant residential properties. Average un-occupancy rates for urban areas run 10%. That is more than plenty to house every home

And iceberg mansions. The neighbors really love those.

Hmm... I should turn my ATX apt into 4 "Parisian" studios then. Such underutilized space considering I have an almost vestigial "dining room" that has been used mostly as a dance floor and a gym area.

Lolwut. Who? Ne'er-do-wells, haters, or rent-seeking bastards? (I'm in a 1400 sq ft / 130 m^2 2/2 apt in ATX.)

Urban sprawl is awful if there's only single-occupant vehicles, bad roads, and no reliable public transport anyone wants to use ... basically, you get Los Angeles. Terrible, crime-ridden, and horizontally dystopian.

12 floors is tiny if you're not used to it. There's only ~75 buildings in Paris >6 floors because of the 37m height limit. Cities either have to have faster transportation, build underground, build higher, or build out farther.

Does anyone else have monofixation syndrome (MFS)? Apparently, my left eye doesn't participate in central vision, only peripheral vision.

When I used to moderately binge some moons ago, I could feel my heart rate was all over the place. And the hangovers the next day didn't feel great either. Redbull vodkas should be called "Deathwish." This might be an unpopul

I highly doubt there's any kind of bootcamp for it. I got a paid summer internship doing industrial embedded engineering through my university. There are no shortcuts.

Sadly, it was in a two-party consent state. ): I'm now in a one-party consent state and have a trusty-dusty digital audio recorder.

That maybe so, but those are a lot of different areas to cover. Perhaps specific examples, trends, and/or causes would help support each claim. For example, how is it the government's fault, in particular? Is it only the governmen

Unsurprising because FB is all about maximizing profits at society's expense. They'd happily get into human trafficking and child prostitution if they could get away with it. At this point, they have instead created hundreds of mi

Next, on Ancient Aliens: pineapples teleported to Byzantium! How did it happen? Are Neptunians responsible? Double facepalm, Picard-style.

What's interesting is I moved to Austin from CA. I'm used to Texans having accents because my maternal family is from north Texas. I haven't heard one drawl yet. It could be class or proliferation of CONUS emigration.

There's an interesting documentary on American accents. Do You Speak American? https://www.pbs.org/speak/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Do_You_Speak_American%3F

Also: weight, looks, gender, attire, name, skin color, mannerisms, confidence, positivity/enthusiasm/attitude/energy, and age are definitely biases that will get candidates hired or discarded. It never clicked to me at the ti

There are some interesting iPhones mods where flash can be increased well beyond what was available in a particular model (16 GiB -> 256 GiB). IIRC there's some overseas magic device that transfers stuff from the original chips to t

I took a contract once at a mobile handset mfgr that had this. This sysadmin-cum-manager dude (with zero previous management exp) thought he was hot sh*t because of his title. Dude was robotic/patronizing fake, arrogant, useless, and j
