It’s easy to dismiss a problem by just saying that someone is just an “older person” who “didn’t adapt”.

Not my quote, just pointing out that not everything can be solved with money. But yes, I think it got worse over time.

How do you fix the mentioned problem of "filled with unpleasant people" with money?

If a doctor diagnosed me with the same result every time I go to another room, yes I would.

At one of the FAANGs I work, it's a relatively smart autocomplete. Saw some examples of autogenerated e2e tests. I think it's quite decent as a language tutor. But besides that, ag…

What you describe sounds like an immigrant, not an expat.

I am originally from one of the poorest countries, and my family constantly struggled with food for about 10 years. So I am well aware of the struggle. As well as I am exposed to p…

Can you give an example of what question someone asked GPT-4 and was misled? And how that question was better answered by one of your tutorials?

How do we distinguish if it's "beta" or not? Waymo didn't kill anyone, is it beta? How does non-beta rollout look like?

But it's still more (or at least fairly similar to me). Far from "old American disease of not ensuring competition".

I shared the whole quote, but the goal was to just highlight that the number of banks is fairly similar. I agree that the number of people is a better characteristic in this contex…

> The US is home to over 4,700 FDIC-insured banks. It’s not far off from the EU, which has 5,171, but stop and consider that the EU consists of 27 countries. The UK currently has 3…

You are saying like it's any different in Europe. Dassault Systèmes CEO Bernard Charlès makes €20.6m with company revenue of $6.05 billion. For reference, Google CEO made $226 mill…

Without taking into account compensation difference (that is also significant), almost no other developed country has such favorable tax regime (again ignoring temporary programs).…

Now calculate the difference in income taxes on 200k+. You are just paying it differently.

Mind to share the problem?

Why would they optimize it if the service is provided for free?

Why would they buy them out? The main value prop for the client is no ads, reddit wants to serve ads or provide a subscription. So while it was great, reddit provided free infra, t…

But at the same time, groups who are responsible to resolve the homeless issue quote that only 8% of people are out of state based on HIRD research. So what is it?

> The internet is big and I just didn't look for it very long. You'd think so, but for the majority of homeless programs I was interested in, I couldn't find any data. For example,…

If there were a few studies, and it's overwhelmingly successful, why do you think it's difficult to find the results? SF spends something like 90k per homeless person, conducting a…

Because again, that's their incentive. They use whatever ads they get paid more for. Worst case, they are going to lose frustrated users like you, and make much more on others. Pro…

Sure it does, there are definitely exceptions and Angry Birds is among them. And your example is probably from a while back, since you can disable tracking on iOS from 2019 or so. …

If you don't want to see ads, why you didn't want to pay a couple of dollars for an app? Or how do you see developers compensated in this case?

like.. apple arcade?
