But that doesn't mean we live with same standards. Lack of regulations in electricity led to a lot of deaths and disaster which is why it was regulated.

But we dont live in the start of 20th century, we live in 2026 and we must learn from the past instead of helbent on repeating it.

You can't have one without the other.

Also discussed on HN. Yeah I can ignore them, but a lot of people watch those videos and fall for the grift (going by their views) and that's sad. It personally annoys me also when yt recommends them to me because it thinks I'm interested in software

But as far as political justification stands, he is as valid of a target for hostile nations just as Iranian nuclear scientists were (unless he has 0 involvment with USG). That's just the world we live in.

Use your tech for war in other nations, you give a justification for other nations to target you. Same goes for Lockheed Martin ceo etc, nothing specific against Sam. But saying nobody has no valid reason to target Sam like this is pretty stupid imo.

> "You've been training for this," the ad says.

Wow looks like Microsoft were not kidding with their 'this is also an xbox' ad campaign. Also really console gamers is who you target for this role? USG is becoming a joke

Or you mean the velocity of commits will be so much that reviewers will start making more mistakes?

Also, you should hear Linus talk about building git himself, what he built wasn't what you know as git today. It didn't even have the commands like git pull, git commit etc until he handed development over.

Also a lot of Silicon Valley stuff is kindda bs esp the arc where one single dude figures out such a massive leap in tech so quickly and then solves P=NP using freaking AI and then doesn't sell out to Hooli. You gotta suspend a lot of disblief for that but people don't talk about how unrealistic the main plot is

Also the episode where Jared has to explain scrum to vet developers like Dinesh and Gilfoyle. Like you seriously think they didn't know what scum was before meeting Jared?

But i mean, we are splitting hairs over semantics at this point. I could see both interpretations valid but i prefer mine.

In reality, every hour of any life is invaluable since you'll never get that back, no matter how much you're willing to pay for it.

But capitalism forces you to think in terms of your employer and bypass that basic humanity, and think of opportunity costs. There is more to life than just work and being "useless" is part of that life again in my personal opinion.

Not every second of your life has to be productive or have a dollar value attached to it. Yes, you can assign that dollar value to any hour of your life by choosing to forgo that free hour and serve your employer (opportunity cost). But the actual value of that free hour is still $0.
