This makes me curious, is group chat ever a win? Specifically the Slack variety where everyone or almost everyone is logged in and therefore any post by any person has the possibility of distracting everyone. It seems like something more li

?? I thought Project FI had a min $20 a month basic rate. Looking at the site it certainly looks that way. Is there a way to have a Project FI account and no monthly fee if not used?

And way behind in others. Sims are way over priced. 1Gig is $30 vs say Singapore 7Gig for $20 or Turkey, 15Gig for $15 As another example even though > 40% of users don't have a landline more often than not you can not call a Japane

Maybe this is a naive question but why doesn't the local police care about solving this issue? It would seem easy to setup a few honeypot bikes and arrest the people that steal them. Do it for a few weeks a year and it would seem like

I would love for more people to code and I would love for veterans for find work but .... My impression is those who excel at coding (like everything else) love doing it. So, I would expect the majority to fail. It's doesn't seem

AI cars are supposed to solve traffic. That assumes all cars are AI cars but that's certainly one possible future (30-50yrs out). I'm sure someone thought horses would still be a thing when cars were introduced. I think it will go

You don't need to own an AI car to use an AI car. As for "what if something goes wrong" the same is true for any transportation. If I can stand anywhere in the city, press a button on my phone and have an AI car pick me up i

I don't think we know where AI driven cars will lead. no parking lots? If we have AI driven cars than billions of people who can't drive can suddenly use a car. Your 5yr old kid wants to visit grandma? The just ask the car to take

Actually I thought the opposite. I thought, AFAIK this Japanese company is making similar income to USA companies, why can't they pay similar salaries. I've never found out the answer. It could be an answer like taxes are high or

Random semi-related anecdote Japanese video game companies pay like 1/3rd or less what USA video game companies pay in salary. AFAIK similar things are true for other industries. Maybe not as bad as 1/3rd but that's not relev

I don't see what this has to do with the argument that "Writers could do it for fun and give away their work for free." You can argue the point 2 ways 1. Bruce Perens did BusyBox for fun and gave it away for free. After word

You'd also think someone would realize that having better sunscreen does probably not nearly offset the 19000 miles round trip of fuel burnt for a trip from NYC to Indonesia. Sorry, didn't mean to pick on you. I just get frustrate
