Good books are far from passive. The worse a book is the more passive, but the reader always has to use reading comprehension to understand a book.

You should read their 10-Q reports to figure out how they're violating their fiduciary duty with your claims here. You'd win millions of dollars in that suit.

Saying Meta is just a single app is like saying Google is just a search engine or Amazon is just a e-commerce site. Meta while unsurprisingly not very efficient, does need a lot of employees to maintain what they've built.

There isn't clear messaging on where the money is coming from to cover depositors. Thats whats leading to no one even factually knowing whats happening.

E sports is heavily investor dependent. Which means rates go up and itll dry up. I would be really surprised if any of it directly generated a profit. Its for game sales long term.

The onus is on the people making the claim to prove its real. So far theyve collected information on it so negligently it should really just be called data fraud. Pretty obvious whats happening when thats the case.

Reddit of 10+ years ago wasn't terrible even if naive. HN is fine. Just interactions that aren't mostly oppressive in favor of a groupthink. Twitter is unironically better for discourse than reddit, particularly now. There is no r

The problem with political subreddits is they have gigantic blind spots due to heavy groupthink and constant obsession with semantics and labeling. I've never seen a discussion of why some political idea is better than another getting

I think you're underestimating how twisted these peoples pathologies can get. They don't see any of it logically. They're exploitative monsters because they have no emotional control or situational awareness. Words of strange

It's the state giving itself no bid contracts. There's no financial risk (except to the buyers) and the officials who secured it get the money. The buildings aren't made to a high standard because there's no accountabili
