    I don't think it's just a "market" thing at this point. Reality is if you're not a Tier 1 VC, which CRV really isn't, then you cannot get into good deals that would make any sense.…

    I'm wondering how we haven't solved "securely leaving packages" at this point. Having to coordinate with delivery drivers is difficult if you're not home, which is often the case u…

    It's not missing the point. The point is that a lot of people live with chronic inflammation caused by poor lifestyle choices and that results in many diseases later in life, inclu…

    There is a huge difference between inflammation in response to injury and chronic inflammation caused by lifestyle choices like poor diet.

    Uh not really. The unique part here is that in order to even have the chance to buy a bag you need to develop a relationship with a sales rep and buy a bunch of other stuff. The mo…

    I think you're missing a key point here and that is you have no chance of buying a Hermes bag unless you have a relationship with a specific sales associate and buy a lot of other …

    You don't have to believe social media creates mental health issues or exacerbates bullying or whatever. The biggest problem is that it's a massive distraction from learning and al…

    I literally said a room in a shared house. no one is spending $4k on a room in SF. You're not renting an entire apartment for $1200 anywhere livable in a large metro in WA or NV.

    What's expensive about living in SF these days? You can fairly easily find a room in a shared house for pretty cheap, and you don't need a car. I don't really see how moving out of…

    This is silly because it doesn't take into consideration all the health issues that are alleviated when people stop overeating and get down to a normal weight

    so you think if they came out and said we have created AGI there would be no changes in stock prices to any stock that has anything to do with AI even if they are already "huge"? p…

    Am I taking crazy pills or something? Because he was the one who tried to oust Sam like 6 months ago? Did we just all forget that or what? Again, why would any VC give Ilya money i…

    Well, no. No VC who wants anything to do with OpenAI would invest in Ilya. Ilya represents the anti-OpenAI ethos. So it would only be a VC who would be comfortable publicly being a…

    Considering the stock pumped following the presentation the market doesn't seem particularly with what OpenAI released at all.

    You intentionally picked fast casual places that are akin to a Chipotle. I'm talking about a sit down place with service. I'm in San Francisco. Not sure if you've been to a sit dow…

    my point wasn't that a Big Mac meal in Switzerland hasn't risen since 2007 or wahtever. My point was at that time an American in Switzerland would have thought it was relatively mu…

    uh what? what's your evidence Australia is more expensive than the US, especially large metros like LA/SF/NYC/Miami?
