If making a vaccine against an historic pandemic doesn’t entitle you to get some profit, what does?
natchy · 4 years ago
Getting the president of a country to push other countries to take the vaccine is next level go-to-market strategy.

> some profit.

Ha! We’re talking 10s of billions.

Personally, I’m waiting for the Monsanto vaccine before I take it.

> Biden has vowed to vaccinate 70% of the world in the next year

Imagine the profits Pfizer is going to have. Hell of a quarter.

RSUs are actual stock that can be sold on the market. Options are the ability to buy a share in the future at a given price. One is real money now and the other is maybe money later.

Qualtrics gave engineers RSUs in 2015 when they were still private.

Reddit has really degraded their mobile web experience over the past year or so. I can’t view this link at all on mobile, it just has a dialog with options to open the app or return to the Reddit homepage.
natchy · 4 years ago
Same. Couldn’t view the link and won’t be installing an app I have no intention of using.
natchy commented on YouTube is banning anti-vaccine activists and blocking all anti-vaccine content   washingtonpost.com/techno... · Posted by u/danso

With the traffic and gravity that YouTube etc have, they're almost as powerful news broadcasting tools as the classic news media.

True, they're a private company and liable for some things, but they all try to squeeze out every last cent before a government intervention.

Banning content like crypto, anti vax, gambling etc is understandable, but all the people without a voice will think they are silenced because they know the truth.

If we as society accept that, we should not claim to be any better than china, Russia, Cuba, it's just a slightly different approach, the end result is the same, undesired content is deplatformed.

By the way, I am a rationalist and never believe conspiracy theories, but I do get a good laugh out of them at times and how the people use counter arguments helps me to think in more perspectives.

> rationalist and never believe conspiracy theories

That’s irrational to NEVER believe them. How do you know what is or isn’t a conspiracy theory? Whether it was fact checked by our overlords?

I would never have heard or cared about the original fraud case. A great example of the Streisand effect.
natchy · 4 years ago
Maybe Tesla was actually innocent and they are counting on the Streisand effect. It’s a stretch.

I’ve never seems a timeline-view calendar in the terminal like here: https://github.com/SitanHuang/ledg

What libraries were used to do that? I don’t see a package.json

Their command line interfaces to Google Cloud Platform (e.g. gcloud/gsutil) is 100% Python. Is that not considered a “production level project”?
natchy · 5 years ago
That’s just a client though, right? They write JavaScript too for clients.

It’s probably production level services, not just projects.

That 4chan link is full of the vilest antisemtism, racism, etc.
natchy · 5 years ago
The vilest? Not even. That was a mild 4chan thread.
