How would you feel about patenting language? I.e. If you speak with certain words or certain patterns then you have to pay a royalty (only for 2 to 5 years).

Companies build what consumers want.

You aren’t locked into Heroin. Don’t use it.

Consumers vote with their dollars.

So, if you’ve got a better idea, synthesize it and see if they come.

MLM representatives can't be friendzoned. MLM representatives won't teach me a thing.

There is more than twice spam as there is legitimate email (source: ran a corporate email server). However, so far most spam is automatically detected.

In the near future, It's likely that this is no longer going to be the case and in the moment that most of your email is spam you are going to stop trusting everything you receive.

Even right now inside corps people already (should?) distrust and double checks everything that comes from another domain.

I don't know. Chess is aka "solved"(when compared to human performance) yet chess is still fun. Music, Art, Social interactions, and Sports will all be here long after the machines have taken the mundane tasks.

As expected. As interest rates rise more capital that would otherwise be allocated on businesses, real estate, stocks, etcetera is redirected into safer and now more attractive bets like bonds and interest rates tied instruments

More than half the American families earn less than 75k household income[1]. So the career/life prospects are grim either way.

Vegetable oil smokes at a very similar point than olive oil [1]. The only reason people uses vegetable oils is 1. it's cheap. 2. does not add extra flavors.

I like that wherever I travel I can find Kirkland's EVOO. It's not the freshest but it's not fake (combined with low quality vegetable oils).

We now know that this statement was false. Sadly, to the detriment of hundreds of millions.

True, anything above 190 Cº (375 Fº) and it's going to start smoking
