Same for me with boxing. I once sparred with a natural champion of my country. The speed and power were just incredible, actually frightening. And that guy was far away from Olympi…

The two main parties in the US are way too happy with the status for any change to happen. If there is one thing they hate more than each other it's another party.

" find my mind just doesn't want to go beyond about 5-10 minutes of breathing, vs the 30 minutes I did in breathwork sessions." Same for me. I did a workshop with Wim Hof and the b…

I think it’s ignorance and arrogance. The US seems to be on a path to lose technological and science leadership. The current leadership doesn’t seem to understand things that aren’…

Seems they should read Andy Grove’s books.

My read is that started as anti colonialism against the French but then the big powers took sides so the Vietnamese started fighting each other. The sad thing is that a lot of prob…

"I have seen people (one was a VP of Engineering) escorted out of the building, sent in a cab to home along with a security guard (this was in India), not allowed access to compute…

“ There is no expectation, for example, that a billionaire should provide welfare or build a stadium out of his own pocket and provide free entertainment to the masses” It’s the ot…

I definitely would like to see that. The advantage with Venus is also that the turnaround times would be shorter compared to Jupiter or Saturn.

That's definitely how it looks like

The result is still that certain companies are getting exemptions for their products while others aren't. And there is no real rhyme or reason behind these decisions

My main gripe for work laptop is that Windows 11 is dog slow. I think they have rewritten Explorer but not for the better. Word is also driving me nuts. The formatting does a ton o…

To my knowledge Homo Sapiens developed long before writing was used. And there are plenty of tribes who use only oral transmission. I agree with the idea that we are archivists, be…

A while ago I saw a video of a robot doing exactly that. Seems there is nothing left for us to do.

People who are retired and don’t have multi million portfolios are certainly suffering. I bet this will kill off a lot of small businesses

Anybody who could investigate probably got fired. After the pardons of Blagojevich and the Nikola guy it’s pretty clear that scamming is ok now.

That's my feeling too. The tariffs are just another variation for the plan to replace income tax with sales tax. You could argue tariffs are a little better because in theory they …

It would illustrate the phrase "rubbing salt into someone's wounds" nicely

Reminds me of a slot canyon in Anza Borrego that’s called “fat man’s misery”

You have to go lower down the stack. Don't use AI but write the AI. For the foreseeable future there is a lot of opportunity to make the AI faster. I am sure assembly programmers w…

There are places where you get charged something like $60 for a day in prison.

I have been in the workforce for almost 30 years now and I believe that everybody is getting more squeezed so they don’t have the time or energy to do a proper job. The expectation…

It’s super sad that the political establishment has managed to polarize people so much that a rational discussion about very important issues is not possible anymore for a lot of p…
