“…and exposed them to excessively risky trading tools such as options” Oh FFS. That was actually one of positive things that Robinhood did. They could have had some better safeguards for the unlimited loss scenarios to be sure but to lamen

No it’s still pretty useless. If you want a legitimate backyard garden, the rain gutter grow system is the way to go. No robot, no electricity, no weeding, automated watering.

I don’t get it, what does it do? Automatically water plants? You can do that with a sub irrigated planter with zero electricity and achieve fantastic yields.

No question but I love the idea. I was just explaining to my wife about how I never want to work at a publicly traded company because their only goal is maximizing shareholder value in the short term.

He’s a quasi libertarian that doesn’t trust the government with his tax money. What was expected? Further, if you know that’s what he think and it’s within the law, what are we doing here with this expose? It would be one thing if he was

Remember when everyone in Venezuela was starving and all the American Leftists were trying to defend Maduro and calling one a fascist on Twitter for criticizing Maduro’s regime?

How is a “rich idiot” smart enough to build a cutting edge drone but dumb enough to accidentally fly it over an Air Force base? It doesn’t make any sense. If it’s a foreign entity, how do they get it to Arizona in the first place? Why ris

If you are going to make the claim that they are Russian or Chinese drones, please explain how they flew all the way to the US coast and then hung out for hours. That sort of fuel life is less believable than aliens.

If fungi ancestors are 2.4 billion years old or older, that means there had to have been some sort of organic matter at least that far back as well. And if that’s the case, biology should be pretty widespread throughout the universe.

Having seen a flying orb along with a complete stranger who also saw it, there is no time to just pull out my phone and snap a picture. Additionally, seeing something that is seemingly unreal is spell binding. And let’s be real, if there w

What in the world is positive about Instagram or Tiktok? Twitter is clearly worse, but Instagram inspires nothing but vapid voyeurism and tiktok very well could be an act of espionage.

You put all of that effort into compiling this lengthy comment just to come off as a condescending, smart ass critic. Constructive criticism would explain how his model can’t possibly give rise to the Lorentz invariance or Schrodinger’s equ

I don’t know. I agree that people are addicted to their phones. But if people still remotely cared about these sorts of things, they would watch and live tweet about it on their phone like they do for everything else. This show was on a Su

They just chose new vapid distraction instead of the old vapid distractions. I’d rather have them watching sports, at least it can unite people in camaraderie.

It would be the perfect timetable for an adversarial country looking to become the next superpower to use as a bio weapon though.

If the republicans were smart, which they mostly aren’t, they would let Thiel be their nominee for president next time around. I would vote for him over nearly anyone the dems are going to throw out there.

Seriously. While we were pretending that communism was defeated and the Cold War has been over since 1989, the CCP has infiltrated western corporations, institutions, and schools right under our noses. Lord knows what sort of havoc they ha

I live 10 minutes from my office but even just not having to wake up an hour before work and being home on my lunch break has given me so much of my life back. I am never going back on any sort of regular basis.

This probably varies hugely by industry/field/company, but what about when the metrics are nonsense? The metrics setters can also be incompetent(but think that they are competent!) and it’s probably a much larger issue than we th

While I agree with a lot of this, some of this is just juvenile. Like the repo of “your Tesla”. It’s not “your Tesla” until you have fully paid for it. Your monthly payments are paying for the use that you have incurred to date. If you

I have never been that deep into academia and I work at a non-tech Fortune 500 company. I would say that the abuses are somewhat more limited on an individual basis and it’s more of a collective effort of management to abuse their power. N
