You are sorely mistaken if you think Apples values are anything other than separating suckers from their money as efficiently as possible while instilling the sense that being a sucker somehow makes them better than everyone else. Sent from

I'm surprised we don't just lend it the US navy. It is strategically probably the most valuable thing in the world short of nuclear assets.

I really don't understand the pervasive idea that we are going to hold robot cars to so much of a higher standard than human drivers. I'll take 1.2x . Human drivers kill a lot of people every year in what are largely preventable a

Yes, it was a silicon valley thing. Their first and chief investment was from Tim Draper who all but invented silicon valley venture capital. Were it not for that investment Theranos would not have happened at all.

This case is wildly embarrassing to a huge number of elites including some of the largest funders in the VC world: Tim Draper of Draper Fisher Jurvetson, former secretary of defense Jim Mattis, the most important democratic power broker Dav

I feel back for all the suckers that have invested time and money into the discord ecosystem. They are going to milk you dry. If you aren't in the know as to the intent of discord straight from the beginning, it's to build a freem

I think people are just beginning to see the tsunami of effects that starlink is introducing. Rural properties that are now starlink serviceable, that 2 years ago were unsellable dirt, have 10X-100X overnight. Land you literally couldn&#x27

A lot of my family has lived in SF for decades, all of them have moved out in the past 4 years. It's a monstrous dystopia now. The ultra rich completely insulated from the human misery sprawled out in every direction around them while

Either they did the things they are accused of doing or they didn't. I am not seeing much in the way of direct denial in this statement. They seem to want to add "context" which I know as a PR weasel word for we did it, we ar

Closed source software has always been built on an extortion business model. As long as we permit math to be patented and copyrighted this will continue to be the case. The issue now is that each of us as individuals uses much more software

Zoning changes are worthless when there is still prop 13 and the most onerous permitting and building restrictions in the country. The only long term solutions are completely infeasible while there are elections in the state. Existing prope

I don't really see the problem here. This is part of the deal he signed when he agreed to follow steve jobs. He delivered incredible value to shareholders. I have no love for apple as a company but they hired this guy to do a job and h

Hollywood, of which netflix used to stand alone but has now been completely assimilated, has ceased making anything of quality in favor of only making things based on the identity politics of the people involved. There hasn't been a go

Discord is the classic freemium monopoly trap. They want to capture market share with a walled garden and once they do they will alter the terms to milk out every last drop of revenue they can before everyone jumps ship to the new new thing

There is a union, making vaccination a requirement is almost certainly a violation of their labor agreement. Separately the damage being done by trying to coerce people to get vaccinated is so extraordinary and counter productive. We are go

At least 3% of people have legitimate reasons that cannot be vaccinated. Things like COPD, HIV, etc. Fuck those people apparently.

I would say that sovereign countries have the right to determine their own policies. If by "We" you mean the United States we are a massive loser in treaties, we give away much much more than we get. We exert power by having a mil

In relative historical terms these wages are incredibly low when Amazon has approximately $289,138 per employee in gross revenue. If you had a similar company in 1970 this payscale would be nearly triple what is reflected with similarly sit

I really don't know why people want to venerate anything to do with Steve Jobs. He was an absolute disgrace of a human being, treated people like garbage, a borderline psychopath. And yet some venerate him because he made some pretty t

I am no fan of apple but this man used phishing attacks to gain access to just 306 icloud accounts. That hardly seams a significant failing on apples part. He used the credentials of the victims so I'm not really clear how rate limitin
