They are scam but not for money laundering. Just scam.

There are entire teams that are working on just internal services that connect some internal tools together.

There was also very little effectivity and efficiency in the era of cheap capital so there were tons of talent wasted on nonsense. Uber built their own slack for a while!! (before just going to mattermost)

People always ask who actually makes money on Uber... I think it's not the cab drivers, not the investors, who makes money is the programmers. It's a transfer of money from Saudis to programmers.

Well it was, anyway.

Now Sam should make a green goblin mask and learn how to fly around town

But it's out of the scope for this discussion.

edit: it was called MobileCoin right

edit2: they do

is that generating any revenue?

Every time I keep re-editing the same Google Doc document, that keeps breaking; as I edit that, I start to have a mess in all the versions; then this custom PDF never correctly parses in Workday.

I want to use a third party service where I can:

* input my experiences

* custom tailor PDF and Word outputs for different jobs

* keep seeing some history what I sent to who

* the output should parse well in Workday

Is there a service like that? I am willing to pay for it.

What does surprise me is how little it decreased. The site is barely usable now and, the usage did not go THAT down?

That is amazing. Goodbye gorilla mux.

But makes sense.

I don’t find it very user friendly (well, at all), but if you want a git forge that does that, you can use it.

I don’t know who likes it, but it obviously works, as everyone over there is doing it.

Lol.

However shrimps do need to be cooked alive, right?

I’m fine with for example cooking lobsters or prawns and other seafood that needs to be basically cooked alive. Because they are less sentient and less closer to human. I’m not fine with cooking chicken alive. There is a grey area about eating dogs and cats. I am generally fine with that, other people aren’t.

Monkeys are closer to human.

I think some amount of experimentation is necessary and can be good for science experiments. Monkeys are not human after all, never will be; but they are close.

I think excessive and useless experiments are bad.

But there is a gradient and I guess it’s hard to define. I don’t think sacrificing one monkey is evil. I also don’t think that needlessly torturing it is fine. There are gradients.

You can’t make parallel with experiments on human in 2nd world war though; that is a mockery of those people actually tortured back then. Saying that they are on monkey level
