The latter is the biggest reason. Institutional funds are required to purchase these “low risk” items and many would argue is artificial demand so it ends up doing more harm than good.

Wow this is really amazing. The amount of effort here and critical thought is eye-opening and obviously compelling. Why is this an outlier trait? What makes these qualities hard to attain for the rest? Applying this methodology requires mos

No it’s not. The need for work doesn’t offset that economic calamity that happens with a liquidity crisis and the subsequent devaluation of the dollar. That means people need to work and there’s no money available to pay them. You get a run

The point isn’t to throw it away - law has meaning. It has less meaning when it defines everything.

Correct. Typical knee-jerk reaction of our zeitgeist. Sad, downvoted? Ok - what a way to inspire conversation. Thanks HN. Stay bright.

We should eliminate a majority of law. Too much law is like an over engineered program with edge cases for everything that prevents anything from changing in the future. Law cements stagnancy in our society. And at the worst, it creates moa

I’ve looked into graph databases a few times. I feel like there’s a use case I’d love to apply it towards more seriously but I always stop after not fundamentally “getting” the “gains” out of it. I’m doing quite a bit of NLP and similar con

Exactly this. Enable peer collaboration, enable the team to talk to each other as needed, don't force meeting time.

Initial reaction: 1. For transparency any member of the team can identify blockers in Kanban by putting them in the blocked column. 2. If you're blocked, and running into issues, you'd reach out to anyone that can help you. Why wo

To clarify my definition: Changing requirements should only happen outside the scope of committed work; otherwise you're building churn, poor features, and poor code. This lever of "committed work" can be adjusted per team (1

My reaction to this would be the work committed to was unclear. A task should have all the items clarified before being committed to. If there are questions throughout the iteration then the work was poorly planned. It should be a rarity th

With a visual system like Kanban, it's quite easy to see what other people are working on. The problem I have with daily syncs is that it's redundant to information already available, and you're forcing people to "meet&q

A daily sync is way too often on teams that know what they're doing. It feels like busy work and is a waste in throughput and stress. Once a week, with committed items with a true definition of done is all that is needed. Anything in-b

Why would they be more desirable?

I believe sooner than 20 years, it's not the norm yet but we're closer than most would admit I'd say. This is based on my personal experience and business endeavors.

This has an interesting inheritance of why properties go up in value in relation to supply and demand and an economy. If the needs of society are pushed to an average of not needing to venture out anymore due to automation and manufacturing

School today is an archaic design. Education has no bounds with the internet and the spread of information where it is no longer asymmetric. School and universities are falling out of favor. What matters is what skills you have over what de

Insight into younger generations: I hate the idea of owning property. I don't want to be stuck to a city or a location. The world, and the universe have so much to offer. To me, buying a house is cementing your location and stunting th

Everything is a walled garden, if you're that paranoid just pipe everything into your own DB through API capture.

Just moved to Workplace by Facebook from Slack. Love it. Async communication via posts is way better than incentivized real-time for everything. edit: lol, this is downvoted? nice.

I had a vision once – Facebook invented true AGI and life as we know it is a simulated reality thanks to that AI. Oh well.
