These people are managing one of the few things that's actually good on the Internet, better they get these salaries instead of some FAANG director.

For what it's worth the last episodes were by far the worst and the biggest blows dealt to the characterizations.

I don’t mind diversity in my work, I’m a non-white person in America myself, but the decision to have everyone from the Two Rivers be different races (other than Rand) is just silly and destroys worldbuilding. Not to mention the changed plo

There might be fans of the show but I’ll never understand how, it’s god-awful. 0 respect for the source material and far more interested in winning diversity points in a story that was already quite interesting in its gender dynamics. That

Grow up on can mean a lot of things here, I and many other New Yorkers would take it to mean the food that has the most significance in our memories. Its not about eating this stuff every day, it’s about the food we cherish.

How is saving costs not a justifiable reason? Maybe all of this is why European employees have such a hard time finding US salaries.

Exactly my point as well. The ancients didn’t think to not tear down buildings so we could discover them 2000 years later. It’s a miracle anything of that time is left at all in terms of physical structures, and the best preserved have been

What an atheist meme. These things were ‘lost’ because of breakdowns in trade networks caused by breakdowns of central authority and invasions by outside powers. If anything, the Church is what’s kept the Classics alive through its usage of

I find the city to be better for small children and for disabled people than car focused suburbs to be honest. It means stuff is closer to get to and both groups of people are not completely reliant on other people driving them around to ge

It’s a good thing the only cost of their prediction capabilities is human welfare and security, small potatoes in the end.

I completely agree, but my point is that there's not really a situation (at a VC funded tech company) where you're not getting diluted and you're still getting growth on your equity

This is all true but it's important to remember dilution IS what you want if you're signing up to work at a startup. No dilution means no growth, flat and simple. If your founders aren't expanding the pie, what chance do you

Relocation to the Bay was impossible for me to avoid as someone who graduated with 3 FAANG offers and a multitude of other big tech and startup offers as a 2019 grad. All SF or Bay mandatory. Don't know if that's changed post COVI

So clearly it's comparable to heroin and slot machines at Vegas then, if we don't know the impact. Just gotta get a couple more years in to know for sure whether we can compare it to opiates :)

Sounds extremely southern to me. Not in a pejorative way, but in a way that seems really odd when said by a Northeastern US English speaker.

Goals scored isn't a great metric though since there's more teams than ever. Highest goal to game ratio was during the 50s.

Not that Gretzky wasn’t great. He indisputably was and his title as the GOAT of hockey is totally fair. However, these records are incredibly influenced by the era he played in. Look at a list of the highest scoring seasons for teams ever a

I don’t know, I see it with the children around my family all the time. They’d rather play with one another then sit around on their phones. You’re not giving the children enough credit :)

I think the more important thing is fostering your children to have other interests - when the electronics are given just to make a kid shut up it can eventually become their "real" parents. When parents are active and make an eff
