Sorry the discussion is about the commenter not agreeing with any previous policies of the president. If you don't think this quote marks an important shift in American policy I'm not sure you follow American policy.

Right, because the impersonator set off the conspiracy theory, not the facts of the events.

One of the nominators said: "Trump has broken a 39-year-old streak of American Presidents either starting a war or bringing the United States into an international armed conflict." Isn't this significant?

Curious, you didn't agree with the ME work that got 3 nobel peace prize nominations?

While sampling equally from different income groups might clear up these variables, from what I've been able to find some of highest rates of dementia are in relatively small rich European countries. Those countries have longer life ex

> my general sense is that Waymo and Cruise (widely considered first and second) Thought Tesla was considered first, in part because Tesla's fleet collects an orders of magnitude of data greater than others.

Since Levandowski is now suing Uber for $4B that number may climb.

I remember Roger Penrose talking about the mystery of anesthetics, how they may target the vast "microtubule" network in the brain, itself a pretty surprising and unknown structure. So little we know I suppose.

Like all countries really. EU and UK debts are like 80% of GDP, US's about 100%, China's is 3 times their GDP.

Paradoxically the message in Office Space is also, if you forgo the grind and act as you've describe, you'll actually get promoted and have a better career.

> Natural language is adapted for many tens of thousands of years to be used by groups of hunter/gatherers I'm curious why you say tens of thousand of years when the Homo genus has been around for over 2.5 million years?

As a long time listener I will go to bat for Joe's show, he is a loving, rational, open person, and he simply does not platform hateful people or not challenge unjust statements. Some media, political actors, and certain people who don

Has everything to do with conservative/liberal. Living with parents your whole life until marriage produces conservative non risk takers, and there is a conservative political policy behind it that prevents you from obtaining HBD housi

Singapore's population is very conservative, e.g. live with parents until marry, homosexuality is illegal, a lot of pressure against interracial couples (my experience), and essentially a single, dominant media voice. There is a milita

I think this is good advice only if you know someone who would be perfect as cofounder who you have a long working relationship with. Otherwise "get a cofounder to get a cofounder" can definitely ruin a project. Am someone who wen

Thank you for sharing these details, however what you've described seems to fall under "visa abuse" in eyes of developed countries who offer startup visas... mocking up something one weekend in order to go live in the country

Word of caution, the activities of the employee can trigger a PE for your company and expose you to corp income tax, and depending on possible "technical service" clauses in domestic law or tax treaty between the two countries, yo

Having gone through 3 business-oriented co-founders in 1 year for a b2b tech startup, in each of those inter cofounder periods where I'm the solo founder I find it extremely fruitful for product, vision, and strategy. The content, bran

"Regular engineer" If you distribute your $2.2M over 8 years and gross it up with 35% withhold and minimal living expense like $30k/year you'd have to average over $400k/year. This post is simply a lie? Fwiw I think

Thought the same way until I spent 3 months on leetcode and absorbing algorithm lectures. My programming skills and problem solving skills simply got a lot better for the long term.

Worth having a multi month break at some point in your career where you spend most your time practicing and taking technical interviews. It makes you a better programmer and problem solver.

Wow appreciated. Am now seriously considering stripping bootstrap out of my app and replacing with grid and flex. Stuck in 2015 as a front end developer apparently.

For those viewing solutions here, do your diligence on permanent establishment. You're almost certainly still liable for corporate tax in country where you're indirectly employing people, OECD is clear on that as a general guideli

Maybe this is good advice for mass marketed consumer apps, but I don't believe putting up a cheap SquareSpace template and faking automation instead of building the product is a good strategy for getting initial enterprise customers.

Thanks for posting. I was curious on "Climbing towards NLU: On Meaning, Form, and Understanding...". Interesting that a best paper award was given to a philosophical paper on distinction between meaning and form.

Can one seriously compare COVID-19 to a TB plague? Especially in context of schools where mortality rate for the school aged appears to be less than any seasonal flu on record.

But the author's brand - his unique position working among world class talents - is what gives weight to the words. But I think the post called for examples of specific founders/researchers and their situations, e.g. how they mana

The timing of this is a day after Twitter reinstated ZH, admitting they had made an error banning them. Hard not to read this as a reaction to that.

I hear you, but there's still market incentives for companies to participate: cheap labor for 2-3 years with good likelihood of a useful employee afterwards. I think in Germany they're paid ~ 1k Eur/mo. Clearly a progressive

Try to put yourself in the shoes of the 40% of graduating high schoolers in the US who don't go to college. It would seem nice to have an option to graduate and start a career.
