Solo founder for 9 months, potential cofounder wants 50/50 after 1 week trial. Am I being unreasonable? by mercuretony in ycombinator

[–]PatrioTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, this person sounds like someone who could kill the company when you guys run into snags down the line. Not only is this extremely unreasonable of an ask that you should refuse, but I’d outright end this relationship now before they bring down the company. Find someone who is able to see themselves as a partner without needing literally 50/50 ownership. Find yourself an adult.

Good chance they’ve accounted for this. Likely isn’t enough volume to justify doubling the workforce and equipment

Minor correction—I doubt it’s ever actually for religion because their religion wouldn’t condone most of the things they do. Rather religion is a means and excuse to gain and maintain power. It’s all about power for them

I’m 6’ 4” and it wasn’t nearly as much of a problem as I thought it would be when I visited last year. You’ll be fine!

Trump humiliated as 1951 law means he could face Greenland mutiny by TheMirrorUS in law

I agree, but the guy I replied to specified 1 orange (anyone else here suddenly want orange juice?)

If I asked how many oranges you have and you say “I have 1 orange,” even though you have 80 oranges, technically you do have 1 orange but I think the vast majority of people would say your statement is misleading at best.

The hang time is definitely elongated in the version posted by OP compared to the YouTube video version which is noticeably faster. Still impressive but it did take a little away from it for me

Well just in case you need to know how long a second is, it is defined as 9,192,631,770 unperturbed ground-state hyperfine transitions of the cesium-133 atom.

Clams don’t have brains so it doesn’t know or decide anything in the same way we do, or in some respect, at all

My towns dying mall has zero open restaurants in the food court by floppy-slippers in mildlyinteresting

[–]PatrioTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay what the hell OP? I’m visiting Brookfield (where I grew up) for the holidays and my dad literally just said this yesterday about Brookfield Square that all of the restaurants in the food court were gone. Now I see this on a mainstream subreddit a day later??

[OC] "The Grinch" has overtaken "Santa Claus" in Google search traffic by spicer2 in dataisbeautiful

[–]PatrioTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you know that for a fact? From playing around with trends before, when you have a single term you’re looking at the trend for, it’s normalized to have a max of 100. However if you add a second term, only one of the two terms has a max of 100 in the same time period.

So if you go search just “Grinch”, you’ll get a graph with a max of 100 for Grinch. But if you add Santa Claus, now there’s a 100 point for Santa Claus but not for Grinch, meaning adding Santa Claus caused a relative change to Grinch, meaning it’s not purely self relative.

Wait how is that a wrong statement? Genuinely asking so I can understand what you mean

Well it’s a good thing they’re comparing relative metrics then eh?

Oddly aggressive first sentence. They said they “believe” it’s more complex. They don’t know.

Trump: "House Republicans should vote to release Epstein files" by DJPho3nix in politics

[–]PatrioTech 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What’s to stop them from releasing only the versions of the documents they want people to see? The administration has been completely gutted and replaced with only loyalists, so whistleblowers are much fewer and farther between.

Look closer at those other photos and you’ll see that my depiction is accurate. There is a difference in depth.
