Interesting arguments people had when the world was young. If I do multiple commits into main a day, will probably get a visit from CTO. Will test tomorrow.

I am not sure work is the right place to express your opinions on controversial topics. It is different though sharing your thoughts/interest with people you trust at work. Also there is assymetry of impact of ideas between two sides.

They probably need to talk to Apple regarding their 5 star review on iOS.

I feel the article is super misleading because extreme wealth creation can only come from monopolies. The capitalism is made up of monopolies. Starting from biggest companies in the world to nation-states which have a monopoly on pretty muc

Soviet history is very tricky subject to study. Russian State aka Kiev’s Russia started in Ukraine, so saying Russia starved Ukraine is like saying USA starved California, if somehow California got independent and the rest of country blocke

Family for 30 years in rental property business. Anything which involves rent is by far not risk free. Very cycle driven, heavy on litigation and management has to be perfect to make returns.

In terms of hype? Kim K will destroy Elon in head to head.

Nitpicking here. But is it possible to have intellectual curiosity without the political/cultural wrapper around it? The fact is that we can express and engage in intellectual curiosity is a result of politics.

But why? They are already getting prison sentence for it. The problem is that all the punishment is actually cost society money and productivity. Like telling people that they can’t get education because of whatever is huge net negative to

Reputation is very abstract concept and in the eyes of the beholder. There is no universal reputation metric. In the US there is credit rating system, which everyone used prior to 2008 to determine who is credit worthy. After economy collap

Reading this article, the bar for something to be truly innovative is super high. Using that logic we can argue that warp drive will be just 20% innovation because things already travelled to other planets prior, we just made it faster. Als

It is really weird if we talk about issues from Marxist class struggle framework. Homelessness exist because rich don’t care, which is an empty argument. The better argument is that we don’t have systems in place to deal with the problem. L

What about 40 hour week. Must be a disorder as well.

'Fundraising Disorder', 'Working Disorder', 'Speculation Disorder' should be included as well. Any system which has a reward as part of the system can lead to a disorder.

The key question will be, what is the admission criteria? The reason Harvard doesn’t want to disclose it, because a lot of admissions are not performance based. If family member is Harvard alumni and was donating really well during their li

Investors rarely do a crazy DD, especially technical DD. First, it is expensive and second which is most important, it takes time. When a company is fundraising and investor likes a pitch they prefer to move fast in fear of missing out. Gen

A little bit controversial, but without taking into account the way the company was run, the only big mistake was using inaccurate machines for testing and putting the people health at risk. Everything else is pretty standard SV startup stu

I never saw a problem with it. The problem is with maximizing the stock price in the short terms versus in the long term. And it is all up to CEO to communicate his plan and then pressure on earnings will be less.

They are multinational companies. If they want to move HQ to another country, they can do it any day. Happens all the time. It is question of ethics and values. Plenty of companies and people were totally fine profiting from holocaust. US i

This is a great story. Just wondering if they can this analysis on other famous executives and see if somebody else engages in such activities. At the same time, we are all human and have emotions and anonymity is a great way to let them ou

I assume with their money, they would have full license with source code. The bigger reason is scope, fun factor and bugs. Scope is huge, fun might be not there and bugs probably in 100 thousands.

The issue is that Unity/Unreal are not designed from ground up for open world simulations. That’s why majority of open world games have custom engine behind them. A lot of engine parts are off the shelf solutions for physics, animation

Well you need to have huge marketing and support for B2B. And then B has to actually make money for you to get anything. It is really hard sell in gaming world to get paid for engine licence upfront, because developer is only going to make

Bossa Studios are using it. I agree that it is quite customised, but at best they might have 5-10 customers in next 2-5 years, so they should be able to support them.

It is very nice video. I am still not too sure why Improbable just don’t make their own games. That’s how Epic basically marketed their engine. This type of games require massive investment of time and resources. I feel it will be much easi
