We will never know! Stop asking questions, that's not how science is done!
t6jvcereio··on Are Sanctions on Russia Working?
Lol right. These people blow my mind, seriously.

I think there's a huge number of people who are doing badly in life or something and just wanna see the destruction of society.

It's either that or they're ideologically driven. This is the same person who was arguing for "getting rid of money and wealthy"[1]. I have noticed that in the eyes of communists, Russia can do no bad. In my own country, the leader of the communist party has refused to condemn Russia's invasion. Food for thought.

t6jvcereio··on Are Sanctions on Russia Working?
You're not having this conversation in good faith. You keep distracting from the fact that Russia is the attacker. SpaceX doesnt matter here.
t6jvcereio··on Are Sanctions on Russia Working?
And your are very prone to propaganda. One side walks back on a contract and calls us europoors, the other side invades us and bombs us cities. This should be clear cut, but morons like you are very confused.
t6jvcereio··on Are Sanctions on Russia Working?
I'm European and I don't agree that the Americans are doing anything wrong in this specific case. If anything the Americans are doing a better job of fighting the attacker than we are.

The same way that you have contempt for people who "don't care about the tech", a lot more people, me included, have contempt for those who "only care the tech".

This is because "the tech" is just a tool. To me what matters is what problem you're solving. What you're saying effectively is that your don't care about solving problems, you just like playing with the tools you're familiar with.

Fortunately people like me are winning (in the sense that we're being able to shape society a lot more effectively than those who want to "get rid of money")

Well... The video is 35 minutes in length, but you can tell it's been heavily edited. Even if you knew what you're doing you probably wouldn't be able to do it in 35 mins

Quick specialist.

Now if you could make a startup that makes call center workers not dumb, that would be groundbreaking.

Interesting. But why did you make a point of telling us you eye color? Quite an insight into your thought process actually.
t6jvcereio··on Ask HN: How do you and your spouse handle big income differences?
> We had a hard time dealing with this at first, I was jealous and a little bitter, and she was worried that I was taking advantage of the situation.

Wait... Why was she worried that you were taking advantage of the situation? Taking advantage how specifically?

t6jvcereio··on Rust – A hard decision pays off
> Do the architects have intense debates over steel H beams vs wooden LVL beams, and at some point newbie architects believe you should only switch from one to the other as an architecture firm if your architects have experience with it, because the only way to know if it would work is reading the marketing claims.

That is one way to put it, which is convenient for the point you're making. A different way, more convenient for the point I'm making is that if you're budding roads and you need a bridge, you probably wouldn't hire a firm that only has experience building tunnels.

So you see, your analogy is meaningless, because making an analogy is not a convincing way of making a point. Anyone can make an analogy.

My argument on the other hand that experience is a very important factor, is a lot more convincing because anyone who has any kind of professional career already agreed with it.

t6jvcereio··on Rust – A hard decision pays off
That's not the point. If no one knows the language, no one knows if it's appropriate. All you know is the language marketing claims

> We decided to move our entire codebase to Rust (and Go for the k8s control plane).

> there was still one minor problem - no one on the team knew Rust.

Is this real or satire? I can't tell.

t6jvcereio··on How messed up was Germany's energy policy?
He was saying the USA should leave NATO. In our day and age you should be arrested as traitor for saying that. The man is an idiot.
t6jvcereio··on How messed up was Germany's energy policy?
Put it this way. The German leadership is corrupt, their populace are naive green zealots, and Trump is a random number generator. Why is it that of these three facts youre fixated on the last one? There's lot of random number generators out there.
t6jvcereio··on How messed up was Germany's energy policy?
> free riding on our military

Small minded.

The purpose of NATO is to serve as a force multiplier. It's not that Europe benefits at the cost of the USA. Both benefit.

t6jvcereio··on How messed up was Germany's energy policy?
They're not unrelated, there's both the exact opposite bet on the same issue: should the west take Russia at face value?

Saying "Germany needs to look after it's energy independence" is synonym with "the west cant trust Russia", and saying "I'm taking the USA out of NATO" is synonym with "the west can trust Russia".

So he just claimed two opposite views and his fan it's pick and choose.

t6jvcereio··on How messed up was Germany's energy policy?
> What you should be asking is: How was Germany so dumb that Trump saw it, but they didn’t?

I would be asking that, if we were talking about someone who's reliably correct. But since we're talking about someone who's held every position and it's opposite on any given subject, I think it's quite obvious what's going on. It's called survivorship bias.

t6jvcereio··on How messed up was Germany's energy policy?
Wait, is this the same Trump who said he was getting the USA out of NATO, or is this a different Trump?
