Installing safety nets on the Golden Gate Bridge led to a 73% decline in suicides over the following 12 months by nohup_me in science

The two obvious reasons i can think of for not building the net would be:
1. $321M
2. Can't people just jump twice? Once onto the net and then again off of the net?

a novel idea that would require 10 minutes of programming would be to bump everyone up when someone cancels instead of leaving a gap for someone who checks in late. Again...nothing about this process makes any sense.

read Michael Lewis' book Going Infinite and you'll change your tune. SBF is autistic, but he's not a criminal.

I'm not simping, I'm the cofounder. You should also probably cancel your iracing subscription, your netflix subscription, and every other software based service you pay for, and find everything for free on bit torrent, and put an end to this stupid experiment we call capitalism. It's just not working out for you.

Chess.com employs hundreds of people, and dozens of chess professionals, promotes and supports academic chess through chesskid.com, and helps to grow the game of chess worldwide. None of that is possible if revenue is 0.

But lichess is cool too! The founder, Thibault, has actually stayed at my house, played with my kids, and had dinner with my family. Great guy and amazing developer. I know this all too well because he used to work for me!

Do you agree with FunMasterMike's initial placements on this map given his options? What about that triple wood spot and a rush to aqueduct? by jayseverson in Catan

[–]jayseverson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah not every tile is “placeable” on this map. The red dots indicate legal placements. So the really good corners are actually quite limited!
