Yes, we all do live in a simulation. If it's this good now, what about 3,000 years from now? iOS V.1008?


EVERYONE should watch this one. thanks:-)


Sounds crazy --- I don't want to start a billion (trillion $$$) bank. What happens if "my bank" has never more than $10,000 in total assets. Our loans never go above $100. Do want to offer ATM cards, just we're nano-sized.

Do I somehow slip under all the banking laws? Just as an "experiment?" Is this something that I could do? OR is it just a crazy idea?


Great scuba diving. Highly recommend a visit. :-)


When a front-page NYTs story says "CHAOS" in the title, you know there are a zillion opportunities hidden in that story. Just a heads up. :-)


Isn't the new WeWork in the Brooklyn Navy Yard empty? They have been trying to fill it for months. But double-check me on that.

1/2 billion to build that baby.


Unless there's another one, the Dock 72 location is still "Opening Soon" https://www.wework.com/buildings/dock-72-at-the-brooklyn-nav...


And what coder at Google is not a weekend stoner. I'm sure they're having a laugh at this one.


I'm not a weekend stoner. More of a weekday type to make the drudgery more entertaining.


Back in the day, we used code words so no one would know what we were talking about.

Our favorite code word was "programmer's fuel."


In my mind, that can only be one of the four: Adderall/ Dexies, weed, alcohol, or maybe coffee. Not sure the code word is subtle enough!


I mean, there's the old joke about programmers being machines that convert coffee into code. I think it's pretty safe.


I still find myself using the old how I met your mother one - Let's go out for a sandwich!


I call it allergies


The majority of Americans have brain damage of some kind from toxic organic pesticides. This is why people are so weird.

Look for the twitches and shakes, that the indicator. Especially facial muscles around the eyes. We've all been poisoned. The organic chemists have known this for years.

The upside? Cheap corn.

Now what?

This is very plausible. Consider how the rise and fall of tetraethyl lead in gasoline corresponds perfectly with historical incidence and subsidence of violent crime, with the exact delay you'd expect to account for the time to physical maturity of a developing person.

Can you link to any example videos of symptoms to be aware of?


> ...Especially facial muscles around the eyes.

Just to clarify, you aren't talking about tetany, but say, cheek muscles or perhaps the forehead? Can't say I've seen it myself, but that's just anecdata.

And where can I read more about the proposed metabolic pathway, etiology, etc.?


Geez dude. Agree chemical are not ideal, but is $10 USD a gallon milk ideal?

Hope you dont use a cell phone because of the radiation.


If milk was $10 USD, it would encourage people to eat in ways that are cheaper to produce. Cheaper to produce unsubsidized lines up reasonably well with good for the environment (more vegetarian and vegan foods). I'm always surprised that milk is cheaper than canned beans on a calories per dollar basis, given the cows, pasteurization, and refrigeration needed.


This is correct. Additionally, many of the subsidies for agricultural businesses go to the largest player. That's why your local diary farm's milk is $8+/gallon versus the grocery store.


Yes. Good food should cost a little more than what it takes to grow it + a profit. Like any other business.


I've noticed in some past ad's the clocks are set to 4:20.

Programmers hard at work there. :-)


And of course AH, AAPL crashing, down -14 already.


"Buy on the rumor, sell on the news" is a tradition for Apple's Quarterly reports going back to at least 2004 (by my own memory).
