Are you in Europe? Are there any promising European companies in this space? I’ve been thinking that something like this would be perfect in Europe going forward. Could help de-risk both reliance on subsea comms cables, US constellations an

I have made a genuine attempt to understand what the third viable option is. I may be too dumb.

In this specific case the greater evil was clearly “the same or worse”, but with the opportunity for an irreparable, fatal outcome for Gaza. I think lesser evils are present in every election. By your logic, total surrender is the only outc

It was damned if you do, damned if you don’t. What about all the voters you lose by dropping support for Israel? Democrats were powerless to stop the genocide. Gaza voters weakened them further.

Seeing your posts hours after Trump launched a plan to ethnically cleanse Gaza is quite the sight. You’re like the black knight from Monty python. Edit: I welcome the pushback on this post. The message I meant to convey is that of two evils

Does anyone know a tool to form groups on AT protocol? Maybe custom feeds? That would be a great feature! I’ve been meaning to look into it for a while.

Just an anecdote thats been horrifying me for the last week since Klein is mentioned. I learned last week that my colleague bought a commuting bike from an old friend. A true once in a lifetime barn find. Mid 90s Klein Attitude, only used f

Yeah, software recalls are recalls. The car has steer by wire, so even steering wheel issues could be ”just” a software recall.

FWIW I’m not American. I think it’s more likely than not that Trump is the end of liberal democracy. They had it planned out for Jan. 6. They know how to succeed next time, and they have an even firmer grip on SCOTUS. I used to fear for wha

What data brings you to this conclusion? PA firewall is slowing, but it’s not terrible.

Has anyone brought that up? In the current administration? In the campaign?

I would say Zuck went as far right as reasonably possible, and his timing was good. Kind of cowardly, but also impressive foresight on his part.

It’s Amazons, Blue origin, AWS profits he’s fearful for, not WaPo.

Has he won any significant ones? He’s likely losing his pay package in court and had to buy twitter because his lawsuit wasn’t going anywhere.

If you monte carloed it, I’m sure he would do way better than average, but given how rare the current outcome is, I firmly believe it is mostly luck.

No source, it’s just my impression that most Norwegians feel they get a fair deal.

Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. To me it looks like a race to the bottom. We have a very nice society, and most people are happy to pay taxes. We also don’t tax rich people more in relative terms, it’s just that it creates a threshol

Obtaining excessive wealth is the same as winning the lottery (the billionaire founder class). Edit: Q: If you downvote this comment, do you believe someone like Zuckerberg was predestined to be a billionaire?

You’re right. But it does imply a higher level of performance than delivered (probably to most people).

I wonder what percentage of devs would still want to take a job for Elon Musk on normal competitive terms, though. I would demand getting the severance pay up front for example.

What if anything is known about Elon’s private crypto holdings? Wondering if it is possible he’s traded the pump and dump cycles he’s caused?
