Zuckerberg's luck is what makes him CEO of one of the FANG companies and not just another engineer at any random tech company. We can all point to minor changes in someone's life path that if changed would not put them where they

My Sony Smart TV is crap and I will never buy another Sony TV. Yes it runs android. It's slow to respond to input. Sometimes when I'm guessing it needs to page out code it can take 5-30 seconds before u can actually use it. It&#x2

I thought LensCrafters, and places like Costco, (Walmart?) had easy cheap access to glasses. Did that change? Jins is a big chain in Japan and they now have 5 locations in the USA. At least in Japan it's like the article described Peru

I wonder if there been a study on if there is any difference in outcomes. Japan also has a lower barrier to entry to be a doctor than the USA. Medical care is much less expensive but I run into plenty of quack doctors that would not qualify

That's a great page but I didn't see this particular objection covered. Maybe your point was it's "yet another false argument"?

I have dumb question > You can rewind the full state of the program to any previous point in time Where does all this saved state go? I'm running a game that runs at 60fps, every frame 10s of megs of data change. It won't take

My experience is this is only if it's your own code and you have a full mental model of the state of the program. I worked on a lisp project and the lead would see a crash, type some lisp, continue, app would run. The rest of the team

If Jeff Bezos was to commit murder tomorrow and be caught I suspect the police would chase him, catch him, throw him in jail, he'd make bail and it would turn into a scene like OJ. I don't expect he'd be able to raise an army

> You don’t like working for FANG. That seems like a totally normal sane response to me. I’d be more concerned about the people who love that corporate environment rather than those it doesn’t give meaning to. There are lots of people at

I often wonder if listening to podcasts and videos at 1.5x or 2x speed will make me impatient for people talking at normal speeds and whether that will be true for society at large. I remember in the 80s being overwhelmed by the explosion o

Tell me more about "derived data rights". So you tell me the cost of materials and I factor in labor and come up with a price for my product. I derived my price from the data you supplied. And I can't use this price because i

I would love to see Blender become competitive with Maya etc but it's got a long long way to go. Though it might be closer than most, in part because it's competition is so expensive people are looking for alternatives. I sponsor

I could be misinterpreting those laws but they still do not seem to support your point. They aren't about MSRP. They are about your own ads. MSRP is $10, you can advertise $15, if you then charge $20 you broke the law by charging diffe
