The amount of waste is unreal. I never understood how advocates for higher taxes and bigger government spending could be ok with this. Then I realized most people don’t really know, care, or want to know what their money is being spent on.

Can someone explain the significance of gambling in Asian cultures? I noticed this growing up with many Taiwanese friends. There seems to be some cultural component to “luck” but I don’t know if that’s ethnic or something else

I never understood why does the bicycle crowd feel the need to push everyone else to ride bicycles? We are happy for them, why do we need to join them? I personally do not feel safe on a bike in a crowded city. Even if you took cars out of

As a rule, anytime an intellectual attempts to carpet-bomb someone’s argument with “as a rule”, i just stop reading.

So It’s not imperial when it’s the other way around? Only when it’s ideologically misaligned with the author?

The thing is there are many people who are fine with this because their preferred party is in charge. They do not care if these obviously dystopian abuses of power are wrong because they are ideologically aligned with those in power (at lea

It is common knowledge that the US was doing GoF research in Wuhan. Is every uncomfortable reality now a far right conspiracy theory?

The thing to note is that people are totally fine with this fact. They want the private sector working with their party of choice, they are not interested in any potential or realized negatives.

Of course it is. Media is no longer about timeless storytelling, well written characters or plots that we will discuss for years on end. All media must be about CurrentThing. There is no other lens or nuance for one to look at the world. ev

If you think you are less attractive than the subject of the nudity then yes, it’s hateful. In fact everything is hateful if you can write a 1,000 word post about why it’s hateful.

I have read this twice and still have no idea what is being complained about or clarified. Have we truly run out of real problems to solve? How is this an actual effort by someone at a prestigious university?

Most people don’t want to hear this. It’s an interesting ideology, but most normies don’t care. I’m not on one side or another. That’s just what I’ve noticed for most people outside the upper class tech bubble.

Anyone reading the files and ignoring both Musk and the corporate-owned media would arrive at a similar conclusion. You need to do some mental gymnastics to assume this stuff is OK. In 2014 we learned that the NSA paid RSA $10 million to pu

This is extremely rare and enough case law exists that you would be able to sue them for doing so. It looks extremely nefarious in court and is a bigger headache than it’s worth. I’ve never heard of this happening successfully. What you’re

Short answer is none. Everyone is diluted during a financing round. Long answer: some early or critically important employees will receive grants after a round to offset some of the dilution.

Diversity is not woke. Having a diverse cast of characters, employees, etc, is neither woke nor in any way bad. “Woke” means using minorities and their very real struggles as pawns in a political debate, a corporate marketing campaign, a mo
