  • Honestly I think they've been drinking their own kool-aid, I think they genuinely believed China has no capacity for innovation without the intervention of western capital.

  • Could be, I don't know how contracts on this scale work, if they secured years worth of components then sure but if it's just for the first few batches they're kinda fucked.

  • I think Valve fucked itself over with the Steam Machine considering the recent hardware prices, probably their only choice at this point is eat shit and sell it under value.

  • Terminator 2 still holds up as one of the best action films of all time. The rest of the series, eh...

  • Gee you think? I bet they paid some consultant assholes like 200k euros to say the obvious.

  • Weren't they doing exactly that up until like 5 years ago?

  • Ok but have you seen the Arnold film where he gets pregnant and Danny DeVito delivers the baby?

  • Well are they?

  • People who are willing to actually follow through with stuff like that aren't really the majority of his voter base. I don't think much of his voter base is actually radicalized, they just want a slightly more left leaning democrat, which he is.

  • Just to be clear this isn't aimed at you but his voter base.

  • The convention got really angry with him and he was shouted down. Later, during a break, he and his wife were surrounded by angry, shouting ICFI sickos. Just when it seemed like the mob was going to become violent, someone identifying as an anarchist broke through the mob, grabbed him and his wife, threw them in his truck and sped off in an attempt to rescue them.

    Bruh what, this feels like copypasta lmao.

  • Eh it occasionally speeds up some boilerplate stuff but you should use it sparingly.

    Of course anybody that claims they can build production grade services and/or apps without writing or reviewing any code manually is a grifter dipshit that has no clue how any of these things actually work.

  • Is the job post a requirement for private companies in the US? Never seen that happen in a private company in Europe unless maybe it's like a large multinational one where they need to fudge the internal company paperwork, usually if they want to do a nepotism they just straight up do it.

  • Why do I feel like this is a case of them already having picked a candidate but still wasting time anyway?

    I've seen behind the scenes of these kinds of things, it's possible that they already had a really good candidate but decided to interview everybody in case somebody surprises them and is better than that person. From their perspective (at least what they tell themselves and each other) they "gave you a chance" even though they were pretty sure they already had the better candidate. Whether that's a bullshit reason or not is up for interpretation I guess, in the end for most jobs it boils down to how much they liked your personality, provided you actually have some qualifications for the job.

    Being late is mad disrespectful tho fuck them.

  • What is China's official stance on Hamas tho? I never really got the impression that China was sympathetic to Hamas.

  • I absolutely love how mad Hasan's trip to China made people. My twitter feed for the past week or so has been filled with blue checkmarks pissing and moaning about it non stop.

  • I'm not denying any of that, I'm just making the claim that price formation of Bitcoin today (in a not yet post apocalyptic economy) works in much the same way for much the same reasons as the price formation of gold.

  • You can make your own shitcoin right now even with a capped supply it won't be worth anything since it's just numbers

    You can declare bottlecaps to be a currency like in Fallout and everybody would be taking you equally as seriously as if you made a shitcoin. My point is that the market forces that dictate the price of gold are much the same as the market forces that dictate the price of Bitcoin. There are differences obviously, gold is a physical thing and its scarcity is dictated by mother nature whereas Bitcoin's scarcity is entirely made up, but the underlying market logic is much the same.
