bricks and minifigs is going to lose a hell of a lot more than this 10% in business

regardless of the law, it’s a very stupid move on the company’s part.

if they had half a brain they’d pay double the commission and pretend it aas internal miscommunication. $40k is cheap versus the pr hit they’re taking right now

it’s not that your point is being missed. it’s that some people don’t agree with you, and the personal attacks aren’t helping

insults won’t convince people to agree with you

sometimes people just have different belief systems than you, and that’s actually okay

why would we believe skeptical randos on social media?

he has access to the real numbers and a legal risk from lying publicly. it does him no good to lie about this.

the claim that they suspect something is adequately backed up by saying “i suspect this”

nobody needs to prove their suspicions

there is no burden of proof on someone who says “i suspect”

> This seems like a tragedy of the commons -- GitHub is free after all, and it has all of these great properties, so why not?

because it's bad at this job, and sqlite is also free

this isn't about "externalities"

You might be surprised. The studies say it's a primarily negative impact, especially in math and college attendance.

the big problem with quantum advantage is that quantum computing is inherently error-prone and stochastic, but then they compare to classical methods that are exact

let a classical computer use an error prone stochastic method and it still blows the doors off of qc

this is a false comparison

> If a pattern is a common problem

it isn't, is the thing.

if you read the book design patterns, they spell out what a pattern is.

if you read the book anti-patterns, he spells out what an anti-pattern is.

people have gotten the wrong idea by learning the phrases from casual usage.
