I totally agree with you. I never said that the best and brightest go on to do finance and management, but that’s what the author was alluding too.

Was this supposed to be inspiring? It seems the author is just complaining about how this countries best and brightest go on to work in finance or management instead of using their talents to start a business. Which is true obv, but it does

I find it very interesting that Amazon, after years of criticism for not doing anything regarding sellers gaming reviews, pauses reviews on the product they spent a billion dollars on.

I mean it’s a drop in replacement in the way that an impossible burger easily replaces a beef patty, not that it’s a 1:1 replacement. I would love better health campaigns and subsidies as well but no one wants be told to not eat meat or to

Goalposts. You specifically mentioned intelligent life, which is dealing on human timescales. You mention wastefulness and destruction which only makes me think of humanities actions in causing extinctions, caused by our lack of regulation

Seems like it is self-defined. Which if answered honestly I think is fine. Someone that drinks a glass of wine a day would likely describe them self as a drinker, while the person the person that only has one drink socially might not.

I’ve had much better experiences getting what I order from eBay than I have from Amazon. Random junk is fine, but I at least want it to be the random junk I ordered.

Not when a large percentage of Americans can’t afford a visit to their doctor, that disclaimer is only going to be ignored and users will look elsewhere.

I love this idea and hope it comes to market. Apple could easily turn it into a subscription and have the user provide their own storage (aka upsell internal storage). I was curious how users without a stationary Mac (aka a MacBook that doe

Maybe so, but how does that explain how E. coli outbreaks on lettuce? From what I understand the waste from animal farms run off into waterways that feed the vegetable farms.
