    My guess is running a startup is like running a marathon. The idea of it is great to many people, but as people start to train they realize all the work it takes and drop out. Peop…

    The unequal distribution is more related to the power law (80/20 rule) than each other. Money definitely helps, but if it had high correlation, Software Engineers would be viewed a…

    I would argue we live in an era with the most access to everything you listed out ever. There are more programs to help the poor than any other period in history. The internet and …

    I have a motto, “It’s really hard to be depressed if you eat, sleep, and exercise well.” Whenever I’m struggling, I drop everything (within reason) and focus all my effort in those…

    I don't know if achieve is the right word, but two months ago. I decided to do one healthy habit every day. It could be meditating, working out, or spending time with friends. I be…

    I agree, I'm simplifying the issue. But I feel like you're agreeing with me. You stated all the reason why African-Americans history and culture is different. If it has nothing to …

    It is racial in the sense that's the way people have been grouping things. Else we wouldn't even have this conversation. There would be no inequality of races because the grouping …

    I think as a society we need to admit different race, in general, have different culture, values, and strengths. I don't even think that's a radical idea, but somehow it is. I have…

    Poorer people are more obese is only true in richer countries or in countries where the poor doesn’t have to starve. As for why poor people are more obese in well-off countries. Ag…

    Yes, it's bad in the US, but obesity is rising worldwide. Obesity, in general, correlates with GDP per capital.

    Yes, plastic MIGHT be making us obese. But, we definitely know high caloric intake and sedentary lifestyle makes us obese. I don't understand why obesity is such a mystery. People …

    If you don't understand the problem they are solving, you're still very green in the field. Try to implement a basic data bind input field and display the value in the DOM with rea…

    Check out this video. It has a clickbaity title, but it has great information: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpqSy5V1fFQ Basically, you're overthinking it. You need to simplify i…

    I don’t think people are blaming the individual, but it is up to the individual to take responsibility of their own lives. Obviously, a person environment has a great deal of impac…

    Of course, that's why you show value. When I dropped out of college, I knew I couldn't rely on a piece of paper to say I was smart. I was lucky, it's easy to show value in CS. I do…

    Depends on your perspective. Yes, it's less efficient for me (individually) because I'm subsidizing suburbs and paying more taxes. But, I was talking about the city, society, or th…

    I'm not an urban planner expert, but the logic makes sense to me. I look up my downtown condo vs a suburb home of comparable value, and I pay twice as much in property taxes. It's …

    I WFH for the entire time I had my roborock. The sound is annoying, but I still run it every day. The main selling point for me is I don't have to vacuum.
