>For more context, YC doesn't judge your code, never has. It was never a code quality competition.

it shows

270k is on the low end and would indicate incompetency if anything if you're older than mid-20s, esp since it's not like he's taking a pay cut to work in a cool or interesting field (coinbase lmao)

americans unironically trying to justify air strikes using the phrase "weapon of mass destruction" in 2024 -- to describe a fucking computer program, no less -- is so far beyond parody

wonder if this guy considers stuxnet a wmd

>Experience full stack decentralization: from DAOs and crypto cloud services to games, NFTs, and social media, the Internet Computer has something for everyone.

hysterical. exact same shit as always, folks

>it seems distributing power to more local level forms of governance works well for many things

>CCP COMMITS GENOCIDE AGAINST UIGHUR MUSLIMS XINJIANG

wow, you seem to really know what you're talking about!

>we do many other things that normies would miss but discerning customers notice and reward with their loyalty

this sounds interesting, can you share any other examples?

[flagged]

even just proof-of-work where the work isn't completely fake and worthless would be a huge improvement, but even that obvious layup is beyond the reach of web3 geniuses

"but everyone does it" is about the most pathetic, incurious defense you could muster

The passive voice shit from the past couple years has gotten truly audacious and increasingly infuriating

Quest single handedly killed VR

They flooded the headset market by selling subsidized hardware at a massive loss for years which aggressively redirected funding away from abitious, interesting projects utilizing desktop levels of compute (next-gen 3D modeling and sculpting, architecture, fluid simulation) to Beat Saber level mobile game shovelware that has to be able to run on a cell phone

hilarious logical end progression of all those idiotic articles about $600k dual income households in the bay living "paycheck to paycheck"

McKinsey MBA brain rot seeping into all levels of culture

worthless post

yea man, I think it's stupid for a text editor like Atom to be 200mb and take up 1gb of ram because I have a "complex". I'm annoyed at the 120 independent copies of CEF on my computer using 20gb of disk space because I'm "insecure"

remember when reading this that this guy's company is valued at a billion dollars and his comp is 10x yours if not more. we live in a meritocracy

>2. Hiring only A-players. Bloated teams kill startups.

I love coming on here and seeing the world's wealthiest and savviest tech magnates breathlessly murmuring in awe amongst themselves about such unprecedented tidbits of genius business acumen as "only hire good workers; don't hire bad workers"

if you genuinely think that "literally everything in the creative industry" is chasing trends within the well-defined boundaries of existing paradigms that giant corporations have created for you, you aren't a creative

he flagged your post, too adventurous for him :(

See if you can figure out the difference between volunteering anonymized data with the exact level of granularity you choose vs. having all of that data and more involuntarily collected and sold in secret as a consequence of merely participating in the system we are all coerced into if we don't want to be homeless

>The singular of anecdote is not data.

No funnier response to a post directly proving you wrong. L

it's a "dick move" to not give the guy who owns your local dealership a 3% tip when you buy a car??

>Also, "there is no justification you can provide that will change my mind" is not exactly something to brag about.

I've noticed a certain type of person tends to feel very threatened and attacked by the idea of someone else having an unwavering code of ethics that they firmly believe in

As long as we're comparing ways in which China and Israel differ, I wonder how many US state governments require all government employees and contractors to sign a loyalty oath to China? Less than the majority of states, you think? https://www.newsweek.com/pro-palestinian-protest-states-coll...

"Investment grade", hahaha! "Speculation grade" would be a much less pathetic way to articulate this absurd concept

>The Stasi and SS would have committed genocide for such data. (And did. With IBM's aid and support.)

I'm fucking sorry? How many millions did the stasi genocide again? Everyone knows that IBM provided infrastructure that facilitated the Holocaust, so which other genocide are you equating with the Holocaust here exactly? Insanely disrespectful thing to post

Main takeaway is that OpenAI is reading all of your prompts :)

This type of whining about slippery slope hypotheticals is ubiquitous in these discussions, but it's not very compelling up against the current reality of 40,000 unimaginably violent early deaths every single year in the US alone

addressed somewhat to HN commenters in general and not just to you: it's okay to trust your first hand observations and real life experience from time to time instead of constantly reaching for increasingly complicated explanations for why you must be wrong when your experience doesn't match the data you've been fed

Such a worthless type of post to make
