It seems like you would've mentioned your own success rather than those around you when talking about how feasible it is. It's a lot easier to say something is achievable when you'…

If it's 1000x better than a career and you believe it's achievable, why haven't you done it yet?

They got the titanium from the Soviet Union, so not exactly an ally. The US just lied about using it for pizza ovens instead of jets.

Sure, but in reference to the comment "because of the time difference" it seems pretty obvious he was referring to time zones, not the dates the laws took effect. Anyway, it doesn'…

Wouldn't it be the opposite? 9 AM in Colorado is 8 AM in Washington.

You're right about that and that's why I'm providing additional context.

The story I heard before the PR spin that came from Paul Graham later (where he tweeted that he never fired him and asked him to choose between YC and OpenAI) was that he was asked…

There are so many reasons to hate Zuck. But bringing up something he said as a teenager in a private conversation is one of the dumbest reasons.

The petrodollar, which largely depends on the US having significant influence over global oil supply, is arguably the main reason why the USD is the global reserve currency and an …
