On the flipside, Any Community that fails to gatekeep sufficiently ceases to exist once it gains traction. The flood of entrants rapidly replaces whatever was there before via sheer weight of numbers.

Considering the hostility that can be shown to those of the opposite tribe, especially in tech companies, are you surprised that op wouldn't challenge the higher in position director on such basis?

His point, at least as I grok it, is that the coc can be perfect in wording, but due to the nature and incentives of its birth, he sees it as more a weapon that a rigorous and fair standard.

The catch here being that if you lose, you can go to your grave knowing that you were right. You'll still be dead though.

No. As far as a communication tool goes, if you underperform, but have a nice moral story to go with it, you'll get a nice little niche userbase that can sit there under the shadow of the bigger, better tool.

Oof, this is me right now. What makes it worse is that I've also done survival analysis, but never quite made the jump that churn is just a survival problem, though it's exceedingly obvious once you see it.

Massage Gun Had pretty bad RSI that was making it hard to work, and shoulder spacing that gave me shoulder aches. I got a massage gun and that alleviated it enough to get me functional again.

At the moment: For mobile VR? Quest one, that's it. For wireless? Index/Vive with wireless attachment. That'll be 2-3 times the cost though, and you'll need a PC and router to drive that.

Selling a loss leader to build mindshare and market share isn't my idea of value extraction as compared to building the base for future value extraction. If you don't think they're trying very hard though, I'm not sure i

I don't think data hoarders have ever been a viable market for unlimited storage. That's literally giving money away for free. Most of the hoarder community has already been anticipating this for some time, so it's no surpris

Think of it less of legalese and more in terms of human speech and it becomes a bit more understandable why there some people consider this fine. "help yourself to the drinks" carts your entire refrigerator and larder's supp

Specifically, that was Jim Keller who gave the "we've got this" response to that. I've been grumbling about moore's law for some time, but if Keller says that it's possible, I'll believe him on this.

Part of the issue is that rocket league was cross platform if I recall correctly. Then epic comes in, buys it out and screws the potatoes who bought it on the competitor platform.

Talk about a misleading quote. The full text here is this. Quest 2 requires a Facebook account to function; without one, you cannot run the system's built-in fork of Android, nor can you toggle the system's "developer" m

It isn't anywhere near obsolete, not as far as I've seen in both scientific and medical contexts. BMI remains heavily used in many nutritional and disease related studies and remains a common metric in healthcare and public heath.

The issue here isn't that one side was correct, or one side was wrong. The issue here is that both sides talking points were barely even touched the actual results. You're right, "hcq works" was independent of the scient

It was. Long before the bulk of the studies even processed, the media had flipped right over to "hcq is the devil and a hoax". This, from what I observed, was essentially independent of any actual scientific research or result.

Seems like you'd bring about the opposite though. In a cooperate-defect scenario, it only ends in the defector's win. Free trade only works if it goes both ways. Otherwise you're just screwing yourself to benefit your now opp
