Wozniak is probably the most famous example. He recognized the corrupting nature of money, decided he had enough, and stopped to live in comfort and occasionally work towards causes he finds important
Lots of people have done the same... But if they're rich and still chasing after money? They'll never stop
You just have to work in legal costs to anything you do. Call it an asshole tax
Like coffee. It might cost them 1¢ a pot... It might cost them $1200 up front and $60 a month for their coffee makers
That would be pretty badass, ngl
Well, I think most of them are trying to get the government to split the bill, which I don't love but I could live with. If they get small scale nuclear working, we might finally actually reduce fossil fuel usage for once
I just feel like the other shoe is about to drop. Are they going to push to run them themselves, with minimal oversight? Do billionaires want to buy privately owned nuclear reactors for their bunkers?
I don't know how this is going to turn bad, I just have a bad feeling
I couldn't get past the title.
Good remakes are good, they must bring not only graphics, but game mechanics and balance, up to date. They must be better than the original in all aspects, or they lose out to nostalgia
Bad remakes are bad, and most remakes in this era are bad
It's not about remakes, it's about quality
Yeah... But why is this being pushed so hard? When the billionaire owned media pushes a message this hard, I can't help but look for the terrible consequences I'm missing
This smells like bullshit
Or, you know, you could offer free unprocessed food to the unemployed? It'd be easy to lose weight and improve your health if you got nothing but veggies with a bit of meat
I mean, it would be great if you could write a comprehensive view of a topic and have people read it. Unfortunately, both sides of that are nearly unachievable in this day and age
Science communication is hard. You can't put understanding into words - you have to dance around understanding, over and over from many angles, before you can capture even the most basic understanding of a complex or complicated system
I'm a software dev. My brother started teaching me concepts when I was 14 and he started learning it, I was 22 before he stopped being my mentor and we truly became peers. My friend, who I've been mentoring for the last 3 years, calls me to share achievements and to do after action discussions on his decisions - more and more I have nothing but validation to give him
Everything has endless depth - but understanding can only be learned, not taught. You gain understanding one fragment at a time through thousands of interactions or experiences, not a manifesto
You could make an enclosure. You'll get better prints too
There are people basically immune to caffeine. There are extreme caffeine addicts. I can drink two pots myself, and I'm extremely sensitive to caffeine
The metaphor works because it doesn't matter how much coffee you drink - it matters how fast you drink it. And that's a limit set by the business - the size of the cups and how quickly they're refilled
At this point, I feel like you're not even trying to understand what I'm saying...
