Re: There are plenty of companies around.

I believe Paul Graham can Google or use AI and already knows about the companies and links you posted. His post was a call to action to connect with people working on yet to be discovered innovations and inspire those and others quietly working to come forward and connect with him.

33 years in Software Development and the only job I have ever “applied” for was a seasonal job at Costco. All the other jobs, including IBM, 2 startups and currently Accenture were through my network.

Our universe operates under deterministic laws, meaning that all events are the result of cause and effect. As such, all new phenomena and entities arise from the preexisting conditions and interactions within the universe. In other words, nothing can come from nothing, and everything that emerges is a product of what already exists.

Great points. I just scanned the article. Did Wirecutter do any actual testing? They can refute and prove the claims are wrong on paper...but it really comes down to testing. Where is Wirecutter's test data?
