Tbh, even if "you know what somebody wants better than they do" it's a moot point since people pay for what they _think_ they want.

idk, when I was applying for college a lot of people in the class applied to like 10 schools. There was always space in the education system for them (although maybe not at all of those colleges). Kids these days are probably just more effi

How? This only strengthens USA's oil sector and ideally we all know the perils of dutch disease. The weakening of every other american export for a dieing industry is not strengthing it.

There's no 4d chess plan here. Trump thought it would go exactly as Venezuela and has no idea how to fix it. They tried to kill enough of Iran's leadership to get to somebody that would be subservient but it turns out nobody is le

Honestly is Nate even wrong here? IIRC, he got to keep all of the models and etc from 538 which is kinda all that mattered about it. Like anybody is really going to lookup the 2016 election in 2030 but they're definitely want the model

What back-deals are yimbys doing? There's a huge difference between extremely publically pushing for laws that allow buildings to be built vs private negotiating tax breaks that only affect a singular building.

What year? I got one like 5(?) years ago and it was lithium. Definitely doesn't run as long as when it was new but does enough. For those of you getting a lawn mower, don't get the cheapest one you can. A 13" wide blade is uh

Well while the pile of shit makes it a joke, isn't there a real advantage here of legibility? Like you have a measure (GDP) and it can't accurate measure things unless a sale occurs. So even if the money is a wash there was an act

There's 3 glaring problems here. 1. There's a steady stream of unmarried individuals so as you match people up there's more people (either just from growing older or divorce) that can use the app. 2. If you don't already

Yeah but if you defense against somebody erasing a database is "we remove their access when they're fired" then your defense is garbage. Like there's so many other attack vectors besides an upset ex-employee.. Like all t

That's still an election. It's not even Gerrymandering, a company you willingly bought stock from has always had this setup. Contrast that to most American's experience of their vote just not mattering outside of a few swing

I really doubt it's going to die out. I think a lot of the value in these AI Podcasts is just the self-validation of the listener. It really doesn't matter to the listener if there's nothing between Egyptian socks and Revelry
