For anyone confused as to why: We (not just people but life on Earth) are mostly made of hydrogen, oxygen, carbon and nitrogen. Nitrogen was something of a bottleneck because it's so much less ubiquitous than the other three, which are

The post was asking how to find investors, not how you would do it in some ideal world. If you don't want to be disappointed by the wizard, don't look behind the curtain.

I've seen people confuse clean and jerks with deadlifts. Maybe that's what's happening here? The biggest deadlift injury I've seen is scraped shins. It's hard to injure yourself without straps.

I'd argue that CBS can't, but they didn't really use the Star Trek formula for Picard. The Orville has definitely shown us it's the ideas which are cherished, not the IP.

> Musk is marketing, that's his core skill. Yeah, he's not obsessed with sci-fi, he's getting other people obsessed with sci-fi.

This idea, along with the null hypothesis, are simply not honored by this part of the scientific community. Climategate proved this ten years ago. It's a doomsday cult and they'll stick you with the "D" word if you don&#

To be fair, this is how I've seen tech decisions presented at most big tech companies.

Everyone is the same amount of religious in my experience. The people who join an established religion gain the quality of being predictable.

It's another everything tax. They just thought up a new word for it.

Yep, Google handles the most search queries of any site. Youtube is #2. Google has well over 50% of the market and over 50% of what's left over through Youtube too.

This is great until you realize that Youtube is the only platform who can afford such user behavior. It's just another moat for them.

I think they heavily silo Google's idea of you and Youtube's idea of you to avoid trouble in an anti-trust suit.

While you're at it, bind a stormtrooper spawn to a key too. If you hold it down while your lightsaber is out, you get a whole pile of stormtrooper parts with these options on. Nothing pushed my GeForce 2 harder than that pile of stormt

I think you're confusing raycasting with hitscan. They're very similar. Hitscan does that light-speed-line thing you're describing and instantly delivers a "bullet" along it. Raycasting instead takes the light-speed

Bullets don't have bullet/bullet collisions and they largely don't affect the player model at all. Swords can hit other swords but they also have to convincingly portray the arms, head, torso and legs during any swing or inte

If you smoke heavily and quit, your endocannabinoid system underperforms by about 20% for two or three weeks. It basically dulls pleasure in everything, producing anhedonia, depressed appetite and irritability. It impacts sleep negatively t

Yeah, I think the add-on is more of a cheeky social commentary. Biases could also be unknown knowns.

When did reporting tacitly turn into reality? It was either always safe or never safe. What we considered it to be is what changed. It's this really insidious subtext of "What we tell you is reality."

If your parents are in town and ask where the nearest weed dispensary is, you might pretend not to know, even though you know. That's an unknown known.

Tech companies are inherently better at public relations because they're closer to the consumer. Plenty of people think tech companies are just somehow different when it comes to corporate morality.

Who's even serving on the side of the "corrupt nation state" in this scenario? Good luck ordering American soldiers to fire on Americans over 2A of all things. The whole thing is a fever dream.

Yeah, I've found this to be more of a personality thing. Seniors just learn more tricks to get away with whichever way they lean.
