Do you consider South Korea the "West"?

Funny how you made the name Micro / MU while there is a major company called Micron with the stock ticker MU. Intentional I guess?

I'm guessing you haven't considered evolutionary psychology? If we didn't yearn for other people, there would be a lot less reproduction, and the human species would die.

They didn't intentionally try to attack a school, and also they gave the crew of the ship a chance to evacuate.

Do you think the US military should have handicapped technology while China gets unrestricted LLM usage from their models?

What about paying your mortgage, food, utilities etc.? Or is that all supposed to come from savings or inheritance?

So funny, he essentially works for free for 10 years, then finally burns out because he doesn't want to put up with a bunch of annoying work? This is why you shouldn't work on open source unless you have a business strategy to get paid. Tons of stuff in life is 100x more annoying and exhausting if you aren't making any money. If he was making $1 million per year from this I doubt his energy would be drained.

It's about 10% nominal, 7% after inflation, if you count dividend reinvestment.

It gives really good caching functionality so you can have large amounts of traffic and your site can easily handle it. Plus they don't charge for egress traffic.

Why not just use a reverse proxy that caches pages into RAM, or use Cloudflare or such?

Well think of this: if you knew there was $100 million in a dufflebag of gold at the bottom of a pond, would you learn how to put on scuba gear and retrieve it?

Perhaps you don't have compelling enough reasons to do things.

The way that works best for me is a 2-step approach:

1. Think about the ultimate goal and why you want to do it. If there isn't a compelling reason, there is no reason to do it, especially if there is short-term pain or annoyance.

2. Take at least one small action towards it per day. This often puts you in the mindset to do more things.

Do you know of any societies in the world that have a high quality of life but don’t have wealthy shareholders?

Everyone is free to make their own search engine. The consumers choose Google time and time again.

Why should shareholders have to suffer just because the Google engineers were good at their job?

Do you think it's better if all companies with competitive moats have a collapse in share price? I'm not really understanding what you're implying here.

Code is an asset of different levels of quality and importance.

Just find someone you usually enjoy being around and can ultimately start a family with, and who would be loyal. Too many people are over-thinking this stuff.

If you always store dates as unix seconds and display them as local time on the browser, you'll almost never go wrong. Most other strategies leave too much room for ambiguity.

There's infinite potential jobs. Doing anything useful is a job.

They're not just as good unless you are willing to spend huge amounts in API credits.

Not really, it's pretty hard to get the editor and code editing via AI working as well as they did.

It's a very well done wrapper that improves your coding productivity a lot.

The greater community, i.e. the United States, may have different preferences than San Francisco.

The supremacy clause of the U.S. Constitution says that federal laws are supreme over state laws. Therefore, it is illegal not to comply with federal laws.

Eventually there will probably also be AI agents that prey on people using personalized strategies to steal their money.

AI agents, crypto, and viruses could all blend together to create really annoying things. For example an AI agent could infect your computer and then monitor your activity to see if you're doing anything suspicious, and then blackmail you.

I only have a product that makes $6k per month, but from my point of view, the validation is how many paying users sign up per day. Even one per day can add up. Hope this helps.

The people who believe this stuff don't have kids, so they lose out in the Darwinian race, and the people with pro-natalist beliefs continue the human existence and more often pass down those beliefs. So regardless of who thinks they're right, evolution wins in the end.

If someone cares more about themselves than continuing their family line or the human species, it’s arguably more selfish.
