    I've heard chatter of Michelle Obama running, which I think would certainly make for a close race.

    Eh, sounds like most of big tech TBH. When you're dealing with a money faucet situation it can be tough to tell what's a good decision and what's a bad decision since either choice…

    Wow. I had no idea that these things had such fundamental limitations. I'd feel a lot less safer using one now, to be honest. If you had to estimate, how long would it be before AV…

    People will always find ways to screw themselves up. Trying to ban this or ban that is like playing whack a mole. It ends up being a contest of who can shout the loudest to gain th…

    I'll let the other commenters do the debunking of this extremely stupid point you made - just want to point out that this is so clearly some shitty troll account. 5 months old and …

    The only people who this is an unpopular opinion to are the rich fat cat execs who only care about their profits and share prices. Pretty much everyone I know thinks it was a bad i…

    I've read a few of Zeihan's books, and it seems like the author of this article is missing the point. Zeihan says, again and again, that basically the ONLY reason for the US pullin…

    I think it's more so that they fear the fed can't stop inflation without causing a recession . So they are holding cash as they think there's still a lot more pain yet to come in t…

    I'm trying to think, do we have ANYTHING that gets even close to the criteria of 10k years? Yes, there's the bible and stuff, but that's not even close to 10k years old. It might b…

    Crypto really seems to attract some serious douche bags. I don't have any significant hate for crypto devs (at least they have some technical interests and talents), but any of the…

    Lol. Dish is such a dog shit company. They probably pay their employees like shit, so they can't compete technologically, so all they can really do is try to get daddy government t…

    It's hard for me to tell how many of these "progressive" programs are motivated out of a sincere desire to make the world a better place, and how many are simply motivated by hate …

    I moved back to the bay area after spending 2 years back with friends and family during the pandemic, and it's got me feeling kinda down. I have some friends here which is nice, bu…

    It's less that I'm glad the market is crashing, and more that I'm glad that the insufferable crypto bros are finally getting a punch to the mouth. Seriously, these people are the w…

    Stupid take man. Even if they have "lost all credibility" in your eyes they still make decisions that have impact.

    I know a few people who I would consider to be in the 10x to 100x range. It really requires the extraordinary convergence of a few RNG factors. All these people I know are the type…
