This is one of those videos where you know what it's going to say in the first few seconds or maybe just the title, so you don't really need to watch it. Honestly just the fact tha…

I've come to think about internet usage as "high-stimulus" or "low-stimulus". Low stim internet usage would be things like looking up the actor from that one movie, and then gettin…

Unlimited PTO means there's nothing to cash out at the end of the year if you took 0 days of PTO. It also reminds me of the old negotiating tactic - never be the first one to offer…

>You can work like a dog to release a feature, and if the feature does what it was meant to do, and you get recognized for your contribution, how hard you worked doesn't matter as …

I don't think he's talking about a specific subreddit, but rather reddit as a whole. I tend to agree, but I don't see how that hurts advertisers. IIRC you used to very rarely see a…

That seems extremely common. For a stretch there every tech S1 I saw said "we don't make money, we've never made money, we have no idea how we're going to make money in the future"…

It's kind of crazy to see a tech IPO that doesn't come with the boilerplate "we make zero profit, we've never made profit, and we have no idea how to change that in the future" cav…

> I love the idea of an off-grid house but it always comes with too much DIY. Are you seriously complaining that homesteading is DIY? That's the point. You belong in SV, just buy a…

I'm in the middle of a programming boot camp where they just blaze from topic to topic to topic, we never do any considerable project work to nail any of it down, and even though t…

So you don't think the problem is social or psychological or related to sitting alone in one room all day, just like... zoom could have a better interface? Maybe that question is e…

This creates an incentive for international corporations to keep a few banana republics around - nations constantly kept in shambles to ensure a fat profit margin by minimizing man…

I can't go a day without seeing some article, some post, some tweet, some blob of text from the internet telling me to stop being positive. Stop trying, it's all hopeless. There's …

>Is there alot of crime in Seattle Yes. There's a documentary called "Seattle is Dying" that covers a lot of it (particularly the open air drug use), but you might have a hard time…

I've been institutionalized for suicidal depression a few times and aside from endorsing that video, I wanted to hijack your position in the comment hierarchy to express that a sca…

That's actually pretty similar. I know there's three "life backgrounds" that you can pick from and they were meant to influence the game much further than they currently do (extra …

Once you no longer run into performance issues, you start to run into other things. Long story short - this game is a crystal clear example of what feature creep does to a project.…

They're optimizing for their needs, not yours. Why would they optimize for your needs? You're already a loyal consumer, to the extent that you're vaguely upset about a missed oppor…

To me this take rolls into the general "silence is violence" or "either you're with us or against us" refrain that has become background noise to me. It reads the same as someone t…

The effort/reward ratio here is terrible, unless you're reading extremely long content or an extremely high volume of longish articles. The problem with the latter is that collecti…

Sometimes I lay down and play games all day. I always feel like a lazy braindead slug afterwards. I imagine this desk setup slows you down a bit, at least.

I think they meant ideologically
