I like that idea!

I really enjoyed his most recent novel "Peripheral" and can't wait for his next one due out in January.

The excellent film "Three Kings" dealt with a very similar topic, from back during the first Gulf War: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Kings_(1999_film)

It's better to provide facts and references rather than just making opposing statements.

Have you ever worked in a large warehouse?

In my opinion the two organizations making the most direct impact today are the World Food Programme (run by the United Nations, providing food to areas stricken by famine and war etc. https://www.wfp.org ) and Doctors Without Borders (aka MSF providing medical care to those most in need https://www.doctorswithoutborders.org ). There are a variety of water charities doing good work also. What's more immediately important than water, food, and health care?

You'd think that would be a pretty good indication that you shouldn't be doing something...

Margins are thin?

Maybe think about calling your grandma more often, before it's too late.

In my opinion, HBO's content is rapidly going downhill after the AT&T acquisition. Lots of low budget, high shock value content (violence, nudity, drugs).

One possible route would be for Netflix to become an infrastructure provider for other streaming services. Essentially a white label streaming video library platform.

Convenience does not justify theft. You don't have an entitlement to consume specific content.

"As fans of The Mote in God's Eye already know, one remaining question must be answered for any data storage method expected to last for millennia—what happens when the technological and cultural context surrounding a storage medium collapses? Silica addresses this problem also, by using initial "ground truth" tracks. The team is using machine learning algorithms to re-read Silica's data, and in the event of the loss of those trained algorithms, fresh algorithms can train very rapidly on the "ground truth" tracks, which teach them how to interpret the rest of the data." https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/11/microsofts-project-s...

The plans are made and ready to go as soon as a president who isn't loyal to the fossil fuel industry is in office.

What are the hardware specifications of the average developer workstation?

"federal government" is probably a better term than "deep state" unless you're intentionally trying to be inflammatory...

There's a lot of potential value in influencing public opinion.

I've seen a shift towards Slack and Discord, which seems good.

I wonder why Patreon doesn't have annual subscriptions.
