That sounds like a personal feeling.

I think the first idea is cool. I especially want something truly ephemeral. I don't want all of my messages existing forever. That's my main gripe with both Reddit and Discord right now. One note about Discord though: why do you

It’s been previously ruled that notoriety counts as a commercial gain. The authors could later add monetization to MangoDB, or leverage their increased reputation for gains.

Isn’t that different than ending DST? You’re proposing something entirely different…

I doubt farmers would buy seeds for $100 / 1k seeds after the first season unless harvested seeds were not viable for planting or if the seeds were some type of specialized hybrid whose license prevented farmers from replanting their o

Hmm maybe I will if I have time. We've been using this technique for user-initiated scraping. The only issue we've run in to is we get rate-limited by IP sometimes. Changing the IP has solved the problem each time.

It's very easy to install Chrome on a linux box and launch it with a whitelisted extension. You can run Xorg using the dummy driver and get a full Chrome instance (i.e. not headless). You can even enable the DevTools API programmatical

Not picking sides here, but surely you must admit actions speak louder than words. Imagine you were invited by an institution to give a talk who then canceled your talk due to unrelated views you held. How likely would you be to accept anot

Do you want to be stuck in a local minima forever? Increased competition will lower prices in the long term.

If JSON supported comments it would be perfect.

I don’t think measuring thing vs. cars sold is particularly useful. One way to look at it is this: their P/E is around 330. Their net income grew at 300% last quarter (y/y) and their growth seems to be accelerating. If the price a

The Wall Street Journal leans left? I think you’re seeing what you want to see.

Is there any evidence that this is CJD or a different pryon disease? From the article, it seemed like a few people did have CJD, but most came back negative. Either way, definitely seems like the NB government is trying to cover something u

Slightly unrelated, but does anyone think we'll ever discover a closed-form solution to neural network optimization? If you think about it, the network is known, the initial weights are known, the training data is known, and the object

There is certainly risk, but what kind of company would Intel be if they couldn't reliably deploy 9 bln in capital improvements over the course of the year to meet a quickly changing competitive landscape? Not a company I'd want t

The Yahoo article lists numerous possible causes of the few thousand extra deaths, none of which are related to vaccination. For instance, there were 23 million fewer GP visits in 2020 compared to 2019. And most of causes of the additional

It’s weird that you could have a visceral reaction to the conceptual notion of something that has nothing to do with you. Similar to how it’s weird that people’s stomach churn when thinking about abortion despite never having one, or how pe

Unless of course more workers belonged to unions, in which case more people would be sympathetic to the plight of the worker. These people are facing devastating job losses that will upend their families’ lives. Can you really blame them fo

Did you miss this statement by a hospital employee? > Freeman said the 68-year-old man was discharged from the hospital Thursday. A hospital employee told officers that the man had been at the hospital for 35 days and that Medicare would

I don’t think you can separate the COVID IP from their other IP as all of their IP is based on manufacturing lipid nanoparticle delivery vessels. If you took this IP, this rest wouldn’t be worth very much.

No one is arguing that healthcare doesn’t have costs. But healthcare in the U.S. costs a lot more than in other places, and the reason it costs so much is that we allow doctors, hospitals, and pharma companies to exploit the vulnerable for

Hospitals are vile and disgusting organizations designed to extract wealth from the most desperate. Medicare stopped paying for treatment? Ok. Please go die on the sidewalk.

Moderna is currently worth over 100B, purely based on their IP. It would be a lot of money to buy them out.

Again, this stat is totally devoid of information. From your link, non-teacher staff is defined as: > Nonteaching staff includes administrative and support personnel, such as administrators, supervisors, counselors, school psychologists,

This stat is largely meaningless without knowing the state. Salaries in certain parts of the U.S. are much higher than in Finland. The average salary in NYC is like 4x the average salary in Helsinki. Not sure why you’d expect the cost per s

Your chart shows that the student population increased 96%, teachers increased 252%, and non-teacher staff has increased by 700%. But what does that mean in terms of the typical school budget? Going from 1 to 7 non-teacher staff doesn'

I'm sure there are many causes of this. After recently looking for a home, I have my own theory: schools in the U.S. are absolutely terrible. When looking for a home in the NYC metro area (one of the wealthiest in the country), I was a

That’s not true at all. If you buy the house for 100k and sell it for 200k, you walk away with 120k after paying off your mortgage. If you only owned 20%, then you would walk away with 40k. Similarly, in non-recourse states (which is most s

Sorry, I meant to say that Manhattan has *approved* congestion pricing. Also, the stance of the NJ governor is totally consistent with the issue I'm complaining about. The town of Leonia wants to limit traffic on their streets and the
