You are likely guaranteed a job at a techbro company because Andressen / Altman won't want to look like failures and the 6 figure salary of these "graduates" working at startups won't come out of their own pockets but from investors.

The kids going to these schools will have parents so rich that they wouldn't need a degree to land a job at their daddy's company.

The shares are collected by tax, not paid for by the public. So if the shares go to zero, nothing is lost. If someone gives you a lottery ticket for free and it doesn't win, you haven't lost anything.

No it doesn't. Its a regular screen. There's nothing to fix the focal distance problem. James May from Top Gear reviewed the Polestar 4 and said while the screen was ok, it was a problem adjusting to the focal distance problem. It's a screen so your eyes need to focus close unlike a mirror.

The parent comment already linked to a refutation of Moment of Contact which JustNiz didn't read.

The parent comment already linked to the refutation and that "Moment of Contact" ignores the actual reports from 1996 to invent a story. For example, the women who reported an alien in 1996 reported that they didn't know of Mudinho, a mentally disabled boy who's behavior and appearance exactly matched their description. Today their story is that they did know Mudinho and the Alien wasn't Mudinho. So their story changed. They are now lying either intentionally or not.

20-40 isn't coke bottle glasses. You can pass a state driving vision test with 20-40. Students using fake accommodations is a problem. The system is such that if you don't cheat to be allowed more time on tests you will be at a disadvantage to other students. They will have a higher GPA and get the better job.

Manufacturing has been in a race to the bottom for 50+ years. There isn't much exploitable cheap labor left. Once the bottom is reached, it will become as cheap to build in the US as China.

I think you will find that there no ads while test driving. Jeep isn't that stupid. The ads are enabled months after purchase. Samsung did the same thing. The ads start months after purchase so you are unable to return it.

I find it funny how everyone laudes the old Dec Alpha cpu and then derides the Pentium 4. They used the same design philosophy (speed runner). They even had many of the same engineers. The Pentium 4 failure was the unexpected power wall that silicon hit at 3ghz.

It takes more resources to raise a child than to care for an elderly person. If those people were raising kids, there would be less resources for the elderly. When the elderly die, the problem is solved. When more kids grow up you need even more resources for them.

Mastodon is a Twitter equivalent. Lemmy is the Reddit alternative. There are many Lemmy servers that all work together so it doesn't matter which one you are on. Lemmy.world is currently the biggest.

It's not a slippery slope to unrealized gains. The issue is if someone steals $1B and looses $100m, you can only recover $900m. But if someone steals $1B and makes $100m (over the the year before you are caught.), you can only recover $1B. The $100m isn't unrealized gains. It's real money the thief keeps. 2 years white collar jail for $100m.

Looks like you are due a check for 29 cents.

Math and physics tests have far more memorization than professors admit to. They will claim you can derive any equations you need from first principles so you don't have to memorize but then the tests are always do long that if you didn't memorize everything, it was impossible to complete the test in time. On almost all tests, the only way to get a A was to have memorized not only the equations but the "algorithm" you follow to solve a particular problem that you can identify because you've already seen something similar before. Math and Physics tests leave no time for reasoning.

What do you mean isa couldn't do dma? The original PC XT had dma and it was improved with each revision (16bit 286 and 32 bit 386 ) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wik...
