Are we rapidly brushing past the question “do we want and need to save downtowns in the first place?”? I have not really thought that through; at first blush it seems obvious that one would want to save these downtowns. But also some of the

Thank you kindly :) The irony is I had never seen the entire scene, and Jefferson is called out hard!

There’s a movie clip I’ve seen with Brad Pitt of all people, explaining how America isn’t a nation, it’s a business. A business you don’t own and can’t escape. And you’re on your own. Something to that effect anyway. I’d love to know the mo

I’m going to seize on one phrase: people, including many software engineers themselves, view software engineers as natural resources I’ve said this a million times on this forum.. the little trick whereby people who were once employe

You described a worst-case scenario. I’d rather smoke Marlboro Greens, and I promised myself 20 years ago I’d never spend another penny with them.

I think its that anyone important has significant money on the line, and hence wants or requires support contracts for their technicians and engineers. That wildly narrows the range of acceptable choices to pretty much just enterprise vendo

You have neatly summarized why I feel strongly that the Internet has become a liability to humanity. I have no illusions that we can shut it down or walk away… but on a personal level I am trying harder than ever to remove it from my own li

That's great! But nearly everyone I know not in tech is right at the end of their rope. Like one event will quite literally destroy their precarious lives, and in the US there is basically NO safety net. So while I'm happy for the

Seriously, especially with Tesla! I'm imagining a scenario where this becomes the standard and then Elon decides to charge everyone $2.99 per-use or some such nonsense. That's entirely in-character for Mr. Musk.

I’ve read this sentiment in the thread multiple times, but it just feels backwards to me. At scale you can afford to not give a shit. I don’t think you get to scale by not giving a shit, do you? But once you’re there? Well the money is just
