That's his thing though. He acts humble but behind the scenes he manipulates
redmen··on The ‘Shamanification’ of the Tech CEO
Triggered someone who has a proud yc badge in their profile. Makes sense.
redmen··on The ‘Shamanification’ of the Tech CEO
Sounds like Sam Altman and Paul Graham. Thinking theyre good for the world but in reality theyre destroying it but not wise enough to understand their actions. Maybe high on their success from going from being nerds who've never kissed a girl to billionaires who can afford to lose their virginities.

Harsh, but I don't know why they're idolized tbh.

redmen··on Meta Reports Second Quarter 2022 Results
Au revoir?

Don't think dethroning the lizard king is going to be that easy.

redmen··on America Is Exceptional at Killing Americans Early
I like how this gets down voted by saying the obvious thing. Everyone for some reason thinks if you can't create a formula then you are wrong.

When did people become so incredibly un insightful?

redmen··on America Is Exceptional at Killing Americans Early
Not sure what the problem is but you can experience symptoms. Bad farming practices, poor soil are some of my guesses. How expensive things are that are grown locally.

Just because you cannot identify the problems doesn't mean they don't exist.

redmen··on America Is Exceptional at Killing Americans Early
American produce is a problem but I think only 1 percent of people know how to cook their own food. Instead they buy from restaurants and then are bewildered when their bank accounts are empty and they are fat and with bad skin.

Education in America is worse than growing up in the Bush.

redmen··on America Is Exceptional at Killing Americans Early
America metastasized
redmen··on Ask HN: What'd you do while HN was down?
I lived life and was able to escape my addictions of being on here talking about mostly useless stuff all day and worrying about the future.

It was nice and I wish there were more outages.

redmen··on New study shows highly creative people’s brains work differently from others'
That might be much more true for children. Definitely not the vast majority of adults.
redmen··on There could be 1.2B climate refugees by 2050
Yah we have solutions but they won't be applied by any competent groups of people.

Seriously, look at silicon Valley and all of the garbage they produced with all their knowledge.

Silicon Valley fucked it all up.

redmen··on How will a doctors profession change by tech in the next 10 years?
Not much will change. Doctors are slow and stubborn and have red tape up their ass
redmen··on Ask HN: How to raise a seed round in a down market?
Stop shilling
redmen··on The end of the world is just beginning for shipping
Everybody knows the best way to make a fortune is to get into book sales.
redmen··on Tell HN: Instagram demands I send a picture of myself to prove I own my account
Yes they have engineers but they're all nearsighted, uncreative and high hubris engineers with little to no empathy.
redmen··on Engineer with 6 years of experience gets 7 offers and 800k annual comp
Fake
redmen··on Internet drama in Canada
To add: corruption is all relative. Corruption is a process not an absolute. Under that definition Vancouver is certainly in the process of corruption.
redmen··on Internet drama in Canada
Go to Richmond where there is an underground economy and you can buy a drivers license.

Go to ubc where there is massive cheating and you can pay to have others write your exam for you.

Look at the monopolies everywhere. Look at how long the taxi industry kept out uber and lyft.

redmen··on Internet drama in Canada
A little bit. That's why I mentioned "in the first world."
redmen··on Internet drama in Canada
It's cheaper to roam permanently in Canada with an American cell plan than to buy from these Canadian crooks.

Canada, especially Vancouver is one of the most corrupt places in the first world I have ever been.

Nope. Hbu?
redmen··on David Sacks on new startup benchmarks for fundability
David Sucks.
redmen··on Why Google is so unbearable, and how to fix it
A tonne of kagi shilling in this thread. Honestly its alright but not that great to warrant that many comments lol.

Sometimes I wonder how many of these comments are real, or fake. I have caught hacker news schillers many times before.

redmen··on Nearly 20% of active Twitter accounts likely to be fake or spam
20%? That's it?

Nice. I was that person in 2006 and 11 months
redmen··on Shopify to Acquire Delivrr for $2.1B
Because they have Joe Rogan.
redmen··on Shopify to Acquire Delivrr for $2.1B
Shopify can partner with Walmart and others while it builds out its own. Amazon took that long because they were cutting through new territory. Now others can emulate them and shopify can buy those companies.
redmen··on CDC tracked millions of phones to see if Americans followed lockdown orders
Clever, reddit-type response. Hilarious.

And yet general practitioners don't know anything about muscles, nutrition or how the pieces fit together.

redmen··on CDC tracked millions of phones to see if Americans followed lockdown orders
Our institutions are ancient, with overly specific missions. Like doctors, we have some for feet, for spine, for brain, but very few that integrate everything and see the big picture.

When things get complicated these narrow-minded institutions will fail us.
