So what you mean is, so long as all of the truckers supporters had crypto, they could transfer that crypto to the truckers. Could governments hypothetically not block those transfers/confiscate the wallets? Again, speaking out of ignor

Why wouldn't I know that? You don't know how to measure your own productivity? I don't work weekends because I'm not allowed to. If my company allows me to work 5 days and yours allows you to work 4, I will outproduce yo

Who said anything about exits? People are getting rich with ESOP and secondary sales. You seem to be ignoring an entire industry of early liquidation. I'll reiterate: top performers get rich at startups. Mediocre performers get moderat

Odd take. I guess if you're shitty at picking startups. I know so many people who have made multiple 7 figures across secondary sales in various Series A-B companies. A VP at a fast growing SaaS company has millions in equity. Their co

What exactly would Europe do? Europe is a museum. An economy that hasn't grown in over a decade and a people that would likely lose a war of any meaningful attrition to the vastly poorer Russia. Europe is increasingly irrelevant to the

This is a terrible article. I don’t even know where to start - judging by green name I’m guessing mods will remove this soon.

The problem is, if you're going to make that case, the same argument can be applied to a limitation of our understanding of our origin.

Nope. The Islamic approach is to optimize to our maxima. Essentially our core purpose is to strive to "find/discover/understand" God through manifesting different values (the 99 names of Allah). The various prophets (Jes

I’ve never understood this argument. What else would god “care” about, if not the only truly sentient creature that we know of? Trillions of light years of pointless rock with a few Apes in the middle who can contemplate God. Seems pretty d

If you tell people they're victims, they'll act like victims. Not acknowledging George Floyd "hurts" black employees? This is the kind of nonsense born of priviledge. Anybody from the 3rd world reading this garbage feels

This is such obnoxious virtue signalling. Do you issue statements decrying the 30 people murdered in a car explosion in Djibouti on a daily basis? Who decide which new social issue you're supposed to care about? It's distracting,

You’re clearly so overly emotional about perceived slights to Murica, you misread my entire point and the point of the discussion at hand. I’m not going to continue engaging with you and will let the mods do their thing.

"AI" predicts what a human would probably write next. I don't know how that's someday supposed to replace writers, in the same way I don't understand how AI trying to copy artists is a replacement for Van Gogh?
