Or it was just an uncommon error and really doesn’t show anything at all. Seems like for all we know, a cosmic ray flipped a bit during the IMEI check, or maybe the initial stolen device report to T-Mobile gave the wrong IMEI and an innocen

What a great comment. I recall reading not that long ago something about some condiment that was apparently on every public eating table in 18th England. Yet (as I recall the story) virtually nothing is known about what the condiment actual

I know, but as it exists today, there’s real value to Apollo, the app. Doesn’t sound like it’s possible for Christian to continue to capture 100% of that value, but if I’m Reddit, I’m at least considering a low seven-digit acquisition and c

IMO, he’s doing a pretty good job negotiating this as well. I know there’s a lot of words right now about broken promises and everyone not wanting to do business with anyone else, but from the outside to this uninformed observer it looks to

I truthfully don’t get climate doomerism at all. Does the whole climate picture seem decidedly not great? It does. Seem not great. But hectoring and chiding and unhealthy amounts of stress aren’t going to muster sufficient resources and cap

Still seems like a reasonably proxy for “financial investors” (as opposed to the accidental investors who bought a starter home at the right time, and now it’s grossly inflated value makes it the checkbook for all four college educations).

I also find it extremely disconcerting (though basically in a good way) when I’m traveling and none of my local favorites are available. Yeah, of course I’ll take the opportunity to try something new and local, but it feels weird these days

I loved the faux naïveté. “I can’t believe I’m getting a ~surprise~ package in the mail from the guy who recycles leather just two weeks after I sent him a passel of recycled leather totally out of the goodness of my heart!”

OK, so shouldn’t we then be benchmarking to Vogtle’s start of construction in 2009? Attention headline writers: Cherry picking the start dates and commissioning dates doesn’t prove anything and just leads to madness.

I don’t understand how they figure this is the first new reactor in the US in 40 years? The page that that assertion links to says that one of the reactors at Watts Bar came online in 2016, and the prior reactor there came online in 1996. A

Yes, they did. And yes, like you, it should have been obvious to everyone involved. Yet for some reason, the Twitter client devs (who had happily shifted all their users to a subscription-only model) all of a sudden realized that they had s

I don’t know the details of Patagonia’s ownership either now or before they put it in the trust, but Reddit is also privately owned (for now, anyway).

I generally agree with this type of analysis regarding for-profit ventures, but as a lifetime purchaser, I’m not going to try to get a refund here. I got my money’s worth out of Apollo, and Christian is handling this like a steely-eyed capi

This is really well stated. Sometimes out of morbid curiosity, I’ll read one of the /r/all posts on a topic where I know the discussion is going to be reductive and generally uninformed (the example that comes immediately to mind

Believe it or not it’s actually totally feasible to come up with a one-time number, paid upfront, that represents adequate compensation for future services. Obviously it’s going to be a multiple of periodic pricing, but equalizing a one-tim

Seems 99% reasonable, but the per-message limits make it a non-starter for me. I get why they’re doing it and totally understand where they’re coming from, but the off-chance that an incoming email gets bounced due to no fault of my own (ot

That’s not necessarily a surprise, though, right? US per capita GDP is at least twice Taiwan’s. And even if the costs are higher, that’s still perhaps a decent insurance policy to have a chip supplier that isn’t located in the first island

Out of curiosity, why do you think AI generated contracts are the future? Do you draw a distinction between contracts generated by AI and, say, contracts “generated” by first-year associates (i.e., using precedent to generate a first draft

I guess I have a few questions. 1. Why are returns on equity inherently favored versus returns on debt? 2. How is new money created as productive capacity increases? 3. How are you going to have an efficient stock system when every transact

Give him a break, he’s in the middle of re-discovering Modigliani-Miller, except with a dash of crypto-optimism and pro-indentured servitude (??) thrown in.

For all he knows, the students went to a site with study materials to prep for a test. His policy of disallowing students to refer to prior tests was not even explicit in the syllabus, but behind a link. If this policy were clear upfront -
