    I also disagree with his take that the Kernel could be replicated in Rust by 6 motivated volunteers in 4 or 5 years. That could be said of many projects, you could probably reprodu…

    We'll see Torment Inc. with a $4T valuation before Q2 2028. Mark Andressen will be in the picture somehow, I just feel it.

    I’m waiting on Panasonic (Panasonic, was it?) to act on their trademark to have interactive ads on their TVs. You have to yell a product name or marketing keyword (McDonalds! PlayS…

    Personalized advertisements exist because all-sites exist. Facebook isn’t a pets/cars/vexillology site, it’s an all-site; it and its kin are designed to contain almost all of human…

    It'd help build a case if they took measurements of noise around the property. I'm not saying it isn't true or anything like it but 'loud noise' can mean a multitude of things. I'd…

    You must have heard it already but you won’t turn into Arnold by doing bodyweight squats 3 days a week for a year. It will, however, shape your body and rearrange fat deposits into…

    I’m a grown man and I quickly fell into a flowchart mindset when I started, where I checked if a raider: A) Had skills I needed and an appropriate personality, and B) was healthy. …

    I don’t know. It can get pretty dark really quickly and I’m not sure I’d give my kid that kinda game. If he finds out drug trade, organ harvesting and slave trading are the easiest…

    Well, to steelman the ‘overpopulation on Mars’ argument a bit, feeding 4 colonists and feeding 8 is a 100% increase in food expenditure, which may or may not be possible over there…

    That’s a good example but I think you’re describing another market condition called a captive market, not FOMO. In FOMO, buyers have no real risk in not buying, it’s artifice and t…

    Wow, first time I hear about it, this is an eye opening experience. I will think twice now before saying “why couldn’t they just use USB for this?”

    He reminds me of David Foster Wallace for some reason. In that sense that his writing is long-winded but full of texture and would easily be drivel if it were handled by a lesser w…

    I find your site and sales pitch interesting but honestly, I can't help but feel like a schmuck for giving you 20 USD for this. It feels akin to giving money to Tai Lopez or some o…

    That's fine, using those tools is your prerogative and I won't deny it or besmirch you because of it. That being said, going to a project such as Gentoo's - defined by its ideals o…

    I see many saying that contributors will continue using AI/ML tools clandestinely, but I’d counter that only a malicious actor would act in this manner. The ban touches on products…
