I wish more people took away the lesson of limiting their reliance on those with much more power because it leads to one sided relationships. However it seems like we are moving towards consolidation of power instead of towards inter-relia

These blanket tariffs are less about protecting/encouraging domestic manufacturing and more about renegotiating trade. At this current framing ("reciprocal tariffs") there is an implication that they are short term. The neg

I wonder if there is a market for secured credit cards with low interest. Maybe backed by a HELOC or stock portfolio. By lowering the default risk significantly lenders should be able to offer loan values closer to car loan numbers than l

If I was ignoring your point, it was unintentional because I was thinking about it through a systems level perspective and not at an individual lecturer's perspective. I didn't realize that was a concern of yours. One thing I wou

Quite the opposite actually. In 2008-2010 most of the conversations I was involved with around crypto were around how dangerous fiat currency can be, and how valuable it is to have an algorithmically scarce resource that couldn't be p

Oh it's really cool that you've used the arch wiki in that way. I had already done Linux From Scatch before I ran across the Arch wiki, so I was already familiar with concepts like boot loaders, kernel modules, and daemons. I m

I'd take a night-shift job over being on call ontop of a 9-5. I think the real answer here is to have team members on multiple continents. Have some team members NA/EU/Asia then it's always reasonable hours for someone

It's a big ask for a region that only represents about 7% of Apple revenue. I don't see how Apple leaves the EU, or how they will comply with all of these demands.

The thing is, the actual value of ownership the TSLA represents in way over valued. At $100/share a market cap of ~$300B would be set, which is still over valued for a mid sized car manufacturer with a distressed brand. The $200B req
