This is huge. It only came out 8 minutes ago but I was already able to bootstrap a 12k per month revenue SaaS startup!

Very low risk. Ld50 is incredibly high. Side effects minimal. Adverse reactions very rare

It's funny how know your meme has to sanitize the 4chan out of memes.

The 'how society would look without x' has been a racist trope on 4chan since way before the cited examples.

Obviously a static sign is not aware of your current state, so it's message can only be interpreted as relevant to your likely state... i.e. the posted speed limit.

This is true and no one thinks about it until they reach 50-70

Either everyone you know dies 1 by 1, or you do.

Cmon man, it's a comment not a research paper. Off by one isn't worth a follow up snark

Imagine how red 100 years of economists faces will be when the world ends up back on a gold backed currency.

Probably only takes 2 years before they start inventing abstractions on top of it and this kicking off the eventually next economic disaster.

Imagine a major city in America that were politically dominated y China for 50+ years and it is hard to imagine this type of blowback not occuring eventually.

Is this that easy for humans?

I promise I could give this to 10 people and get at least 7 wrong drawings.

Of the remaining 3, there would be erasor marks on 2. And the last one would technically hit the right numbers and linkages, but it would be a hand drawn sketch on a notepad.

Point is, these AI gotchas are always missing reality.

Why was t true before but false now?

I suspect it's been the false reason the whole time.

No one is investigating anything, only wiping hard drives and tying up loose ends

I am busy. I am a principal engineer on call working 60 hour weeks with an active social life and 2 kids under 4yo...

I always return my cart.

The theory holds and you are making excuses for bad behaviors

I live by this. It is one of the least controversial 4chan takes.

There is nothing wrong with citing 4chans shopping cart theory.

It is truly a marker of good vs bad people as far as it comes to participating in a high trust society.

"...for their home countries to prosecute"

Does not imply a belief of innocence.

I don't see it said enough, but liquid glass slowed my M3 noticably.

Odd I got the update 2 weeks before M5 launch.

Software as a means to obsolete hardware.
