Connections. Depending on your business this can be for key customers (enterprise businesses), some key hires (still do your own interviewing -- the introductions are just that, introductions).

Also some pattern matching ("hey, you aren't noticing this trend in sales, which has killed a couple of my prior portfolio companies". It could be that you're different and that issue doesn't apply to you; it could more likely be that you got some advice that saved you from an untimely death).

These can be valuable. But I've had boards with experienced VCs who were not engaged, were usefully engaged, or were time-wastingly engaged. And sometimes the same person can be all three at different times, depending on mood and how busy they are.

I had a company killed by famous but it turned out bad VC (the only time I've seen another VC call one a shithead in a board meeting). I also had a VC save a company that was struggling.

Avoid the arrogant ones if you can. Sadly they are the largest percentage. They don't call their customers customers; they call them LPs (which legally they are, but I don't call my car a "horseless carriage" though it is one). I remember being at a party where $FAMOUS_VC was talking about all the jobs "he" had created and factories in the USA that "he" had built... by which he actually meant he had funded some companies that did those things.

In short: the more experience you have the more important cash is vs advice, yet ironically the more experience you have the more value you get out of that advice!

I'm not sure if the developers pushing back is the answer.... it's like a mcdonalds burger-flipper pushing back on mcdonalds shitty meat.

I usually don't believe in regulation, but here is an obvious case for regulation... Does company/app legitimately need data X for the app/service to work? No? Then it's not allowed to collect, store and resell that data. If it does, it should be fined way more, than the data is worth. Did they collect the data for one thing (eg. location data for playing pokemon go) and are using it for another (ad targeting)... agian, a huge fine.
I wish I still had all the LEGO I had over my 47 years.

I wonder what has happened to all those blocks, bricks, and specifically that one piece...

With that said, as I know LEGO to be a great company, what does become of the trilllions of plastic squares?

You know what I would like to see? Plant-based LEGO with degradable/plantable block (VEGAN LEGO)..

Not because I am some hippy (even though I am) - but as a visual, the kid across the street from me (well my grandparents, in Saratogo - his dad did something with computers at nasa in the 70s and 80s) had a play-room.... When we would play with his lego sets - the bins, dumped out, covered the floor in literally like 3" deep of lego parts. It was impressive

I have probably had ~2 or ~3 of those black and yellow bins full of legos. This kid has a literal ton of lego in his house.

regardless, its all fish food now?

Hopefully there is a LEGO heaven, and not a environment dumped with them.

But lego designed to BE planted would be sweet.
Literally the entire point of copays and other forms of cost sharing is to 'ration' healthcare by reducing demand. There might be health insurance out there without cost sharing, but I've never seen it and it's certainly not the norm in the US.

For me its appearances versus reality. When I first got into the industry, I worshipped the chance to work at Google (or Facebook, MS, etc). I've since stopped worshipping and now I would not take a job with them. Often I wonder why my mind changed over the last 4-5 years but it comes down to the fact that I've seen how the industry works. Google is very much like any other megacorp, just with an extra coat of prestige to make you want to work there, even though it is prestigious, that prestige isn't going to make the problems that megacorps run into go away.

I'm sure they have infra issues, I'm sure there are messy ass codebases saddled with tech debt everywhere, I'm sure that there is going to be scant documentation and you're going to go on the journey of talking to multiple teams. When I was younger I would have said: "but it's google, they must have figured it out". Now that I'm older I say: "but it's google, no way they don't have these issues, no thanks".

My cat got bartonella which caused this condition and had to have all his teeth removed. Prior to the surgery he was in absolute misery, and the only treatment was steroids that did little and aren't meant for longtime use. The surgery was several thousand dollars, out of reach for a lot of families. An effective treatment for this condition would be great!
Same here. And it is not expensive.
No, it's an example of a group of people doing a "party machine" kind of thing where they hire their connections, and their connections support them.
Scalping is necessary for a lot of events. For instance, a few years back concert sales used to sell a year ahead of time. Who decides they want to go to a concert a year from now? So after a few days they're all sold out to scalpers. Maybe without scalpers they would get sold out by maybe 6 months. But who plans to go to a concert 6 months from now? It's unreasonable. So the alternative is to never get to go to concerts unless you're a fastidious planner.

The other side is even if you want to go to a concert and buy tickets a year ahead of time. What happens if something comes up? You can't resell them. Having the ability to resell your tickets is a huge value to people intending to go to the concert.

You can argue that there should be a better distribution mechanism and I agree, but scalpers are not the problem
I may be wrong, but I think there is more depth there, you are also interacting with a proto-AI in action. The virtualisation of a chore in a machine feels like a previous step to the learning of that chore by the machine.

Basically you are justifying the existence of a parallel economy that avoids taxes and regulations and that can only benefit people with customer facing positions. Amazing.

How about forbidding all tips, and fixing the economy to ensure that this money goes into the hand of all employees - not just the customer facing ones but also the one working behind the scene - and that this amount gets properly taxed so that social services can be provided to everyone ?

I'd be very surprised if Microsoft's development process is more thorough than that of Rust or even Rails. These are not your average hobby projects, it is imperative that changes go through the proper due process there. It takes time to prepare design documents and review them, discuss the changes and different alternatives, review the code, implement the changes, test them properly, and you can participate in all those steps.
I left linkedin for all the shady things they are doing, see my previous comment for more information: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31762904#31767463.

I rely mostly on my my website for marketing and some twitter. I write articles in my field that focus on topics that are not well covered, but important. When I create relevant content, google picks it up.

It sounds like your field relies a lot on word of mouth, so maybe you can get your audience to talk about subjects that are important, by breaching topics that are a concern for your audience.
Fun fact about the US's system too - even when ambulances are called for things like heart attacks -- they take much longer to show up in poor areas compared to wealthier ones;

https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle...

There are some common agreed upon thresholds that strongly correlate with positive outcomes, e.g. 15 minute response time after a heart attack. In wealthy areas, this outcome was achieved 97% of the time vs. only 93% of the time in poorer ones. That doesn't sound too bad, but that means you were something like 230% more likely to miss that cutoff if you were in a poor neighborhood. But at least it's not "socialist".
No need to wonder. You can read the poll and results methodology yourself.

The answer is two clicks from the article, both links above the fold on their respective page. If you’re being genuine in your curiosity, it would improve the discussion here if you shared what answer you find.
The entirety of the US economy is tuned to create debt; healthcare is just one example of it.
It clearly isn't about that; .Net Framework and OmniSharp are MIT Licensed so you can use it however you like. From the Github issue linked in the article: "Once the “LSP Tools Host” is complete, this will become the default experience for the C# for VS Code extension. Existing users will be able to choose between the open-source OmniSharp powered system that exists today, or the new “'LSP Tools Host” which will provide access to additional experiences."

That's freedom in action. Microsoft has a fork of two open projects which they are working on however they like. If you don't want to use their work, you can fork and develop .Net and VSCodium and OmniSharp however you like. Now look at the the top GitHub comment: "once LSP Tools Host gets full attention, OmniSharp will slowly die out (especially if the OmniSharp team is working on LSP Tools Host). Which is of course the last step, extinguish."

Which says: "I don't want to develop the thing I want to use, and if Microsoft doesn't develop it for me and give it to me for free, this is equivalent to Microsoft extinguishing it".

MIT License grants "rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software", and not "you can have what other people develop on this" or "the developers of this will never make non-free software in future". https://mit-license.org/

>It has become a little more evident recently with the emergence of evangelical Christian activism in politics

I thought evangelicalism has been strong on and off since America was founded; the rise now is closer to a return to the field after they were routed some time around 2008 (when they were getting a lot of press by losing debates about evolution and whether it should be taught in schools).

They sell if for the market price, and often times they get burned and sell below face value. If you see concert tickets available through the official venue, you should look at resale prices and you could often get cheaper prices as scalpers misjudged the demand or supply

idk. Most innovation in the field of medicine comes from research in universities, which are pretty socialized for the most part. The workers that are doing the innovation are also educated in a mostly socialized learning system. And there are plenty of economies with mostly socialized medicine that do plenty of innovation (including the USA). So I think your fears of collective funding of important institutions are unfounded.

Someone has to be buying up all those houses in CA that the people fleeing the state are still selling at inflated prices.

If the net population of a state has dropped enough for them to loose at least one seat in the house of representatives, but houses are still selling for high prices than logically it's not people buying up those houses.

Basically the way things work in the US is that even if you can get an overwhelming majority of people to agree that something is a problem, you will never get them to agree on a solution.

In this instance, the two proposed solutions are: make healthcare the government's responsibility like many countries that don't have this problem, or do nothing because that solution isn't perfect.
My wife had a decent chunk of medical debt when we got married which was long before COVID. Even at that time medical debt didn't count terribly against her. Maybe a 10 pt drop in her score. And eventually the debt fell off her credit.
Yachts aren't scarce? I've never seen one just lying around! Sorry I am missing your point there.

Money is the means to prioritize needs in a world of scarcity. If everyone just had more money it would instantly become worth less (not worthless).

You are conflating the live entertainment market and the recorded entertainment market. People will still want to see live music even if it is not some blockbuster name.

Besides, when the rubber meets the road every big name concert I've been to at a stadium size venue is essentially the same as watching a recording because you just watch the big screen anyways.

If you really want the best live experience you just book the artist for your birthday gala. Do you think we should all be able to do that too?
> Elizabeth Woodruff drained her retirement account and took on three jobs after she and her husband were sued for nearly $10,000 by the New York hospital where his infected leg was amputated.

I'm not sure what sort of retirement they had planned to have on less than 10k, but it looks like in this case the hospital knew they could afford to pay but preferred not to. When people use number of jobs rather than hours worked per week it's typically beacuse number of jobs is greater than one and hours is less than forty.

> Ariane Buck, a young father in Arizona who sells health insurance, couldn’t make an appointment with his doctor for a dangerous intestinal infection because the office said he had outstanding bills.

> Allyson Ward and her husband loaded up credit cards, borrowed from relatives, and delayed repaying student loans after the premature birth of their twins left them with $80,000 in debt. Ward, a nurse practitioner, took on extra nursing shifts, working days and nights.

Average nurse practitioner salary 115k. Why are they putting medical debt on credit cards? The emergency room wasn't going to stop care to those kids if they didn't pay immediately. If they were poor the kids would get CHIP, so I think they probably had too high income and maybe decided to forgo health insurance and work as contractors for additional pay. What was the plan for the birth? Was the problem that they were early and they didn't have a chance to get insurance at the last second?

I was excited to prototype a HTML-template driven application using Wails, but found out that you're basically forced into making a SPA i.e. URL routing doesn't exist, you have to handle page transitions using JavaScript. Also there's no native back button, so one more thing to reimplement using JavaScript.
Be aware that even tips handed directly in cash will usually be pooled and split with the back of house and others. I worked at a coffee shop where the manager would take a share of tips. I asked her how her share was calculated and she said she just takes whatever she feels is fair based on how much she helped out the front of house that day. All our cash tips were pooled and we got them as part of our paycheck. Compared to any other coffee shop I worked at my tips were terrible there, I would make in two weeks what I would usually pull in a shift or two anywhere else.
Perhaps I'm mis-reading the plural here, but how many season tickets do you consider a "set"?

Given OP bragged about seeing "6-7 games for FREE", it implies a lot of profit was made on the rest of the re-sold tickets.

There's a big difference between being a season ticket holder and buying multiple season tickets for the purpose of reselling and subsidising your own ticket.

Money printing to some degree has gone on everywhere but not at the same magnitude. It should not be surprising that countries have different monetary policy. Mexico for example had very little money printing/stimulus and had 7.68% annualized inflation in April.

I think cults/fraternal organizations are a lot more common than anyone thinks, and I say this because I keep meeting/hearing about people in them.
If you're thinking about doing this I would recommend doing it by hand for a while to understand the intricacies of the market and pricing dynamics. Only after that can you think about automating some of the stuff. It still may not be worth it because the cost of mistakes is high, development time could be long and honestly it might just be easier to eyeball and keep track of prices and inventory than putting in all that upfront work. In my experience you have to be very confident and experienced to automate something like that with real money at stake.
These studies are always self-reporting and taken at much more than they actually say. Checking the methodology is important and should be done more often, especially on surveys based on self-reporting and not on large amounts of data.

$1000 is $2 / day for les than 2 years (if you can do math unlike commenter below, that's including nearly 20% APR). I'm sorry but even the poor in america can come up with some way to make $14 in a week, if nothing else by picking up some cans.

I live in a city where a segment of impoverished people come up with ways to spend $20+ a day in fentanyl, and they don't seem to have much trouble coming up with that even while living in a tent.
The alternative isn't denying care. It is providing the same care without having people get into debt, which every other developed country (and a lot of undeveloped countries) in the world manages to do.
