Maybe a school should start giving PhDs for good replications.

No, its not doable and everyone saying so is wrong. Contracting, consulting, freelancing are much better options than building a product. Building a product is a 7 year journey to get anywhere good.

It is if you're a smart person. The bottom 70% of the IQ range has a really hard time with fast reading comprehension. Even people in white collar jobs. It's not something people admit, they even hide it, but it's something y

Dissemination of information really is that much better now. It's like, did you ever play a competitive video game with your friends as a kid? Smash bros or starcraft or whatever? And then when you grow up you find out that even the be

It's a distinction made in a top comment in this thread, close friends being ones you show vulnerability to. Just referencing that.

Oh I have a good amount of acquaintances and I do things with other people, theres just no one I show vulnerability to or let the barrier down for.

Been with my wife for 17 years so unless she dies in a freak accident I think I'm good.

All these married people talking about how they are lonely is so alien to me. I'm actually someone who can make male friends very easily. I'm charismatic, nice, and extraverted. That said I have no interest since I enjoy spending

F is better for use in human temperature comfort than C.

What a downer comment. If we never celebrate wins, what's the point? Life has sucked since the dawn of time, its only through the stride of civilization that people have hope of better lives now.

We didn't go through a recession nationally or globally but there has definitely been a micro tech recession as the VC valuation bubble burst. Its a good thing though, it means tech and normie salaries will converge. Economic data says

Most agency owners I speak to (in VC marketing circles) charge minimum $8k a month, not $2k. $2k a month is like an overseas sweatshop.

Eh, anyone can get away with one major crime, it's trying to do more than one which gets you.

Prediction: the vast majority of people will be unhappy with the results of this bill in 5 years.

Yeah my plan has always been to call them and demand proof of the debt if it ever appears on my credit, it just hasn't happened yet.

If it ever shows up on my credit report I'll do that hah. Otherwise it doesn't affect me at all.

Off topic: I've ignored any medical bills I thought were unfair for 12+ years. It's probably over $10k in bills altogether. It's never shown up on my credit reports though (I check often and bought a house last year). So your

EU compelled the USB C standard, apple had to switch. I for one am glad they did.

That kind of betrayal is not standard business, it will absolutely destroy your long term rep.

Yes, it makes me feel trapped.

I hate getting my blood pressure taken. It feels invasive when the coil squeezes my arm. I'll do it but only when necessary.

At the time the programmer zeitgeist was calling FB evil for having a walled garden and not sharing data. Them opening up the API was applauded by the tech industry and HN (look up the archives). And it still has nothing to do with FB priva

That doesn't follow and is very stretched logic.

With no targeted advertising: 1) you will still get ads, it's just lowest common denominator teeth whitening and weight loss that anybody can buy. 2) it would be much harder to subsidize entertainment that relies on ads. 3) New and eme

Government risk from Meta and Google is meaningless. The ISPs have all the same data anyway. Also all the data is out there and me and my family in a million databases. Just like in the 80s with the yellow books.

Literally every part of this sentence is wrong which shows the state of this discourse. 1) CA created their own data with quizzes on FB that people filled out and gave to CA. Even if you banned ad tracking sending people surveys and quizzes

I don't buy that "constant surveillance" from big tech is a harm, I think it's dramatized language for something quite banal. Which is why I want to see actual harms before being against it! There are many benefits to so
