I know sellers realtors are using it today, with their clients permission. (And presumably some are doing it without permission.)

I read a post from someone who got as far as showing up to view an apartment on reservation only to find there was no reservation or available apartment. "Oh, that's our chatbot!"

There are plenty of reasons to not like him. Few of them relate to business.

There are two sides involved. It’s up to both of them to find a compromise.

Both sides pledged to support and defend the constitution when they took the job. One side is refusing to do that. The compromise is they pay their debts and think about this the next time they want to give billionaires a tax cut.

>> "The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned."

We seem to do this every few years, no? Isn’t this just a re-run of political brinkmanship and posturing from the time before, and the time before that? Sure does seem to get the clicks, though.

The GOP has gotten increasingly radical since throwing in with Evangelicals and segregationists[0]. It accelerated with the Tea Party[1] wave which dragged the party further to the right, and keeps getting worse. We always came back from the brink because a shrinking number of cooler heads prevailed. Coming back this time depends on there being enough cooler heads.

I really don't understand how default could ever be constitutional, although I don't think alternatives are great either.

mkr-hn · 2 years ago

The constitution is, in the end, a piece of old paper in a climate controlled box. It's on humans to bring it to life. Humans don't always do the things they say they will on paper even if they put one hand on a different book of paper and swear to while everyone watches.

If you let your bottom 20% performers go, what are the odds you'll want them back?

mkr-hn · 2 years ago

A bottom 20% can become a top 1% with more life experience. Humans are versatile.

Most big tech employees are not startup people. That's why they work at big tech.

mkr-hn · 2 years ago

Losing a job, like any major life event, can cause a rethink on this sort of thing. The average age of a successful startup founder is 45 for a reason. Most of them spent some time employed in the industry of the startup. Before that, they probably bounce between a job and trying to make it on their own.
