Can you think of one good use for this product? No I'm not asking if you think you can you use this to make money, I'm asking do you personally want to sit through a video of a robot telling you do things? Are we supposed to belie

No region doesn't matter look at the actual statistics on this. I looked at neighborhoods the had above 50% foreclosure rates and those houses STILL increased in value in the long term. You can argue the real/nominal value, but ho

As a football fan I hate this, now a major broadcaster (Amazon TNF) owns a gambling company (MGM sports book) not good for the sport.

I sometimes seriously wonder if you born around the 1960s, how didn't you become a millionaire? Rents were lower, wages were higher, safe investments like T-bills and CD had higher yields, homes exploded in value, education and health

This feels weirdly like someone working out emotional issues by describing them in an emotionally distant "rational" way. Like what does this have to do with anything other then the thoughts in Paul Grahams head?

This is exactly the type of thing that should be in PEPs right now. It's practical, its forward thinking addressing an existing problem that's really prevalent in the py3 native async features and it's not incremental it addr

People say with the recent unemployment payments that's there's no incentive to "work" anymore. But in my personal life I'm seeing more and more people quit their jobs to do things like live off Bitcoin fluctuation

Sounds like you should probably pay people a livable wage if you want them to work for you.

I read somewhere that the typical density of matter in the "vacuum" of space is about one helium atom per square meter. Is that true? Seems kinda crowded out there.

I'm sorry China has solved many problems the West is still working on. They've had public funded healthcare/education from the medieval era and they haven't been involved in any major wars and yet still dictate policy in

Well the life of the average Chinese citizen has improved substantially in the last 30 years, no Western country can really say that.

Stripe needs to look at legal action, if she thinks just because she's a politician she can violate an EULA then we have an obligation has citizens to make sure nobody is above the law. I personally hate it when politicians break the l

No you're just being semantic about it. Your suppressing my thoughts by pushing them down the page where nobody can see and providing a big wall of text denial that amounts to "I think I'm right."
