It's true, he and JerryRigsEverything fill that niche.
In a group, half the people will be underperforming and half will be overperforming
So you think it's literally impossible for a group of people to all be performing well? I disagree.
They might not know what the future holds, but when you see very rich, very powerful people saying they sure would love to start WW3, it doesn't take a genius to think it's probably going to happen.
Fair point, but MKBHD isn't typically reviewing products for elite athletes only... he's a bridge between enthusiast/early adopter products and the general public. $900 for shoes is outside of that zone, imo.
Doesn't help that modern-day CS curricula don't really teach you how to develop. They churn out developers who know what a red-black tree is, but not how to set up a .gitignore.
Hey, shhhh. Don't turn your nose up at relocation assistance.
It's because they're cowards. If they were actually proud of what they believed in, they would say it with some chest.
No, no, no. Two concepts.
Doing the bare minimum = being productive enough that you don't get yelled at Underperforming = being unproductive enough that you get yelled at
It's not possible to do both.
New plan? What was the old one, a fucking field trip?
Quick, give him a gun, suddenly he'll be the most sympathized-with man in the country
You can't say employees are both doing the bare minimum and underperforming. It doesn't make sense.
How amazing - it turns out capitalism works best when consumers have the ability to vote with their wallets. Meanwhile in the US, I'm going to start handing out swastika stencils to people can spray paint them onto Model S's.
The phone call is coming from inside the house!
Thousands of chickens euthanized in South Africa after they were left starving and eating each other
Probably because you can still sell cannibal chickens to people.
It's true. And we should all be doing that. If you're in the US, I promise you there are people in your community/local government who are desperate for any sort of support. Build bike lanes, build community gardens, help your neighbors. A lot of them need it.
My previous statement was purely in reply to people getting mad when you point out that they're in a certain percentile. Realistically, what do you expect people to do with that information? What you're basically telling them is that in Sudan, they'd be the kings of the castle. But that's kind of useless information to someone living in middle of nowhere Kentucky, for example.
Nazis really don't like it when you point out that they're Nazis. It's very strange, given how much room "Pride" and "Honor" take up in their ideology.
I'm glad you two are enjoying winning your fake argument against no one
In fairness, what are they going to do about being born into a richer slice of the world pie? As shitty as it is, people won't have much sympathy for those doing worse than them unless they've achieved a certain baseline. If they can't conceive of how life could be worse (many issues in this fragment), they won't accept or care that others are suffering.
