People aren’t machines. Imagine yourself as a terrorist leader. The US Army is combing the area you’re hiding in and you’re just waiting for an opportunity to slip away to fight another day. The isolation and paranoia are mounting, and you’

Not so much, but I wish my iPhone had two charging ports so that I’d never have to use a cumbersome splitter dongle to both charge and use accessories at the same time. I can’t deal with wireless stuff.

No, not really. I'm personally an iPhone user, but my wife has a really nice Android phone. I like top tier phones even though they're more expensive. That said, I didn't want to spend so much (or wait) for an iPhone X, so I

Aside from android being easier to root, don’t the top-tier android phones have all of the other problems too? Genuine question.

I personally require more, like, personal engagement with my colleagues, I guess. I want to feel like I’m working with friends, but some cultures can make it feel like I’m often working with adversaries. Some workplaces require you to “brea

I’m able to follow neither the article nor the discussion. What would I have to learn in order to be able to? Even if it was, like, years of studying. I’m just curious how deep this rabbit hole is.

My current job makes me feel very lonely. I’m not close in age to many of my coworkers and the place is very cliquey. It feels awful. I was on the verge of leaving, but actually ended up staying when I made a close friend. When that relatio

What if a story could be modified dynamically in order to maximize the chance that it moves you? Or to deepen its impact? I figured that’s what the GP post was getting at. Just more tools for geniuses to use to move us and move us more deep

I’m not sure if this is the right place to share this, but loneliness as an entrepreneur was painful and was extremely bad for my mental health. When I give it another go, it will be after having secured a much better set of relationships.

Every drug has its physical costs. Some more than others. Alcohol, for instance, has no non-harmful dose-- even one glass of wine with dinner is bad for your body-- but many people drink throughout their long healthy lives. That said, "

I think that Chinese history is quite remarkable. It's a bit like a Roman Empire that grew, changed, and stumbled, but never truly fell. Heck, it even has about the same amount of arable land as the EU[1]. [1]: https://en.wi

Arguing whether or not Krugman is right or wrong about an issue is one thing, but it's another to say that he doesn't know what he's talking about. He's a Nobel laureate! Is he really that bad? Or do you just disagree wi

Well, to be fair, Android is extremely successful in poorer (middle income) countries. For example, only 4% of Brazilians and 10% of Russians use iOS compared to 30% of Americans. iPhones are just plain expensive. There are many very inexpe

Unless that flower was purchased with two cats (or two bulbs), I don't see how this strengthens the analogy. That said, I do agree that GDP and market cap can't be compared in a meaningful way. It's like saying that the ISS i
