Here's the difference. Apollo has arguably more user value than Reddit itself. I wish Apollo worked as a client for HN, for example. It could easily be plugged into any similar platform and still be one of the best mobile apps ever bui

Discord is tomorrow’s Reddit, except it’s even more siloed and it can’t be indexed.

If your farmland continues to yield 2-4% when shit hits the fan, I will dump my inflated money into an ETF that holds farmland.

Someone "claims" their share of equities by selling but someone else buys. Today I'm buying to invest in my future, someone that's in retirement is selling to fund their remaining years. Are you suggesting we won't

You have a yellow metal that's too soft to even make useful tools to tend to your farm. My casino chips are a stake in the future of the world. If they become worthless, I will take your farm by force because no one will be around to s

Unnaturally straight? What is natural to you? My teeth are perfectly straight and so is my entire family’s and none of us has ever had braces. Is that not natural? Corrected vision is unnatural. Did we go a bit far on that too? Europeans’ t

>now have to figure out how to pay the next couple of months' mortgage If I had to guess, probably with the surplus of their previous massive compensations and extremely generous severance.

Do you have weird post-processing/sharpening on your TV (other than "soap opera mode")? There's really no reason to watch 1080p instead of 4K. Your eyes aren't somehow low resolution with 1080p closer to that realis

It can be a drag on work quality. An engineer that dabbles in design hobbies on the side can provide valuable UX ideas that will make the whole product excellent whereas an engineer that nerds out on the latest code trend will pitch rewriti

Cool, the rest of us have other hobbies. You’re not better than us, you’re just one dimensional. That’s a drag on work quality in an entirely different way.

4K was tested as a premium feature recently but it was rolled back to being for everyone, not sure why. 4K YouTube TV is still an extra optional feature. No point here, just FYI in case you wanted to know.

What are you comparing it to? What are some alternatives that serve up 4K@60 HDR for free?

Do you think the monitor is $5,000 because of high margins? It’s not. It’s arguably a bargain for its target demographic.

They’re not making it worse, they’re monetizing it in a way that’s palatable by those that can’t afford to pay. Video is expensive to serve. There’s no way around it.

Extremely disingenuous to include employer taxes in personal income taxes to make whatever point you're making. Might as well toss in the costs of accounting in there while you're at it. Edit: I'm being throttled from posting

As someone that first played it on a PS4 and then again recently on a maxed out PC, I can confidently say the immersion was superior on the better machine. In fact, I was salty that I first experienced it on such a gimped device.
