Yeah I’m having a hard time taking the school system’s side here. And I can’t stand big tech .

Congrats on the traction and Good luck

You absolutely need a technical co founder, and many/most serious VCs will ignore you if you don’t have one.

The fact that you don’t need one with only a few months of programming experience will be a negative signal to investors and potentially even employees.

I’m not saying I agree with that sentiment but you will face it.

Michael Siebel of Ycombinator has many videos where he mentions this topic, and how lack of a technical cofounder is one of the #1 mistakes for early startups.

Not to sound like a Ted Kazinsky but I’m pretty sure large language model technology will be unsuccessful at filling the emotional, physical, chemical, or spiritual void a human being with mental health issues is feeling.

“But advocates don’t win them all, suffering a remarkable setback in progressive San Francisco in 2022. After the Board of Education angered some parents, particularly Asian Americans, by shifting Lowell, the city’s premier selective high school, to a lottery system during the pandemic, a grassroots campaign formed and successfully recalled three members in a landslide vote. The new board voted to keep screened enrollment at Lowell.”

These boards do not represent the parents nor the students. These people are using minorities to make themselves look like virtuous people, often to the detriment of those minority students, who arrive at elite schools and are thrown into a curriculum they are woefully unprepared for.

It is unfortunate that these educators continue to use the hardships of lower income / minority children to prop themselves up as morally superior people. But that’s the world we live in.

You think a “majority” of the US is racist, misogynist, Christian fascists?

You really think this?

How many such people do you personally know?

What’s interesting about western cultures is that they don’t seem aware that elsewhere around the world, white people are racist to other white people.

There are countless examples of hatred, even within people of the same ethnicity. The notion that this will somehow be eliminated by corporate D&I policies or public school level education is …. Unrealistic IMHO.

It’s upsetting to hear but I don’t think we can get rid of racism. Rather, we should be explicit about what is racist behavior at the legal level. People might hate but you can punish them for showing it.

Imagine being this upset over family values and people liking a movie?

They seem to have misspelled “total scam”

Coffeezilla went really deep on this one:

Good on Netflix. And good for the engineer who lands that role.

Hard working Engineers- 1.

California virtue signaling bureaucrats - 0.

SSRIs are a helluva drug

It’s critical of a government and the intelligence community, so yes most likely

“A senior CISA official said Easterly has devoted town halls to workplace issues such as mental health, burnout prevention and inclusion and diversity.”

While the organization suffers from a massive talent shortage, congress very publicly breathing down their necks, and a lack of measurable results.

CISA Priorities seem to be personal branding and marketing the department rather than actually doing anything of substance.

Title could use some work

So he’s more Native American than Elizabeth Warren ?

In Eastern cultures we have been doing this for years.

Parents force math, engineering, or CS on their kids.

Kids (reluctantly) do the work.

Many go on to have high paying careers involving math or CS.

I too live here, it’s called common sense.

Yarvin’s take on monarchy is within the context of a post modernist world so it’s probably more relevant

The Athenian argument is interesting. Seems they were right, as the loss to Sicily led to more rebellion

I didn’t know HNers read Yarvin

Exactly. They are constantly defending their petulant oligarchs as if they have some moral high ground.

Of course nothing will happen to Walensky, or anyone else who was saying now known false information.

This is meant to pressure people into not wanting to bring these things up publicly.

[edit: Dragonwriter clarified this]

This is just mind boggling.

Not surprised the times is actively pushing against user privacy. The NYT is an extension of the USG, and will act as such. After the Iraq WMD debacle it’s amazing that we still hold this outlet to any reasonable standard.

We happen to live in a country with flags and a national anthem. This is nothing new or unique to America.

If flags and anthems are offensive to you, I don’t know what to tell you.

Who remembers when CNN was a news source?

Not surprised. Most people just want to watch the races/sports/etc. They’re tired of everything being used as a platform for a political statement.

The list is comically long already, but it will continue to grow. These people are treated as marketing groups, not as human beings.

The amount of waste is unreal.

I never understood how advocates for higher taxes and bigger government spending could be ok with this. Then I realized most people don’t really know, care, or want to know what their money is being spent on. Once they’ve paid Uncle Sam, they don’t consider it “their money.”
