You make it sound like they didn’t even buy and run the game, but that’s not accurate. > While the game encourages you to master the reasonably simple controls of its range of perf…

Sounds amazing. I build and unbuild but then just put the box back in storage (my closet).

If you worked at Google for 12 years, it seems pretty irrational to commit this kind of crime for only $1M. Maybe there’s a chance he can get pardoned before 2029 lol

If all that happened to your startup is that you couldn't get traction or compete, that's not a scandal.

Yes it works that way in the US. You could go in with a friend with a membership or simply be reincarnated as a child of Costco members.

See, that's really the best argument for this. It can drive itself the same way I can fly an Airbus A321. You can't sue me because I didn't land the plane "intact".

They are dealing with vastly more activity as a result of AI usage. It's that simple.

I appreciate the world building in this oatmeal comment

Have you never seen the word Syria spelled out?

When one of my coworkers bought a used car, he went out of his way to buy a model year that was compatible with Comma. He has lots of praise for it.

Greenland's appeal is more about expanding the US military's presence in the Arctic rather than petroleum.

I haven’t noticed this.

this is really nice. One request: when searching for a station name, let me type "and" instead of "&" e.g. typing "E 47th St and 2 Ave" would still return "E 47th & 2 Ave".

I think a better way to think of it is in terms of revenue per employee. Valve is WAY up there.

If you can’t appreciate the value of less is more, this device is not for you.

Yes that’s why he and Gabe were speakers at the talk. In game economies were the topic.

Yes he was a visiting professor for like a semester or two.

Gabe gave a talk at my college like 12 or 13 years ago. He explicitly called out the unbelievable number of downloads for Doom as a sign that games were going to be huge. Fun non-s…

One (maybe the only) advantage that the hypothetical new Windows-based Xbox console is that it'll be able to play all online games that require anti-cheat like COD, Battlefield, an…

I also used your tutorial to get started with web development and helped me get my first job about 11 years ago. Thanks a lot!

Where did you source them? I've thought about buying HDDs from a vendor like serverpartdeals.com but was unsure how reliable the drives would be.

By your logic, we would never have normalized running elevators without an operator.

Also Dark Side of the Ring.

I think the faux pas is regurgitating the first hit you find on StackOverflow or Wikipedia without considering if actually adds something to a discussion.
