I quit when they expect me to stay beyond 5pm. It's software. It can wait more often than not.

Yeah but I don't feel like suffering from every aspect of my life just to make an impact. My suffering will become a full time job. Focusing on not eating x/y/z, not wearing x/y/z, not doing x/y/z, not goi

Yes, and 99% of the time it's "fuck it who cares dude lets just lie we need users". I've been at the forefront too many times. There's never been a remotely 'human story'.

I sort of want to start but don't want to deal with the explaining. My buddy started with the nice leather briefcase and he got relentlessly roasted in college.

No but you should take it with a grain of salt when he talks about "getting a seat at the table" and the ideas he has.

He's just another rich asshole working a new angle now that he made his billion. At no point in time during his time at FB did he have a conscience? He could have done more earlier. Just seems like he's working a new angle now to

There are contexts and limitations. I have no practical use to understand my fridge to such a degree because it will yield me nothing in the future. I just need to keep it plugged in, cool, and not broken. All easy to verify. I have control

I work remotely and I can't leave my friends and family over money. Money is just money, if I can max out what I make in my radius, cool, but I won't be moving to chase it. I'm not making up numbers, just speaking from person

Absolutely not. Nevermind even starting to talk about a specific niche of tech like AI. Article is completely false on almost all counts.

That's exactly the level of plausible deniability they need, so people like you come to the comments defending them. I promise you 0% of these coins will be a thing 10 years out. I'll put money on that.

What? This is like every shit coin. Tons of them tank to near zero and deflate. Anyone who thinks these coins are legitimate are fooling themselves. They are built with one core requirement, do just enough to differentiate from other coins,

Then what's the scam? I'd imagine they're looking for a very specific skill set (those tech skills, but in the context of crypto).

Very cool. Downloading PDF's has always bothered me and this is a fantastic and easy way to view papers, esp while commuting. A Native android or iOS tablet app would be neat to track your papers etc.
