    Nobody’s talking about starting businesses. The article is specifically about pypi packages, which don’t require any sales and marketing. And there’s still no noticeable uptick in …

    It’s well understood that humans do not instinctively grasp statistics, are bad at knowing when they’re being lied to, and are hard wired to take shortcuts. AI companies gave every…

    I live in Japan, where most people are old, and I can confidently say you’re wrong

    Ok, you do all that work at home and manage to block flock in your area. It doesn’t matter because the next city over where you work installed them so you get tracked anyway. Then …

    The pope, ostensibly the person you believe to be the representative of god on earth, has said that your product is garbage and here you are rationalizing it. Are you sure you have…

    Props for your work on these but they’re toys mate. These are things you built for yourself that other people happened to find useful. That’s great! I’m not shitting on that, but i…

    Then you’re paying higher consumption taxes and property taxes, and higher prices on business costs passed on to you. Do I even have to explain this? Just because you can’t see the…

    I’m not playing a game, I’m comparing facts. The median person working in the US is poorer than the median person working in Canada. Fact. Average tax rates for people with the med…

    I think that’s up to interpretation. They said Canada is “unmatched globally”, which I interpreted as a belief that Canada is the best country in the world. Agreed on the second ha…
