“Spider-Man, Spider-Man - does whatever a spider can.”

Thinking of trademarks? I’m not sure, but I feel like that is true. To quote a true asshole: “I’m just asking questions”.

If I were an “angel”, I’d go with you. I like the cut of your jib. You have what it takes. If only 1) me business angel 2) you pitch-deck. We would clean-up the business space.

I was going to praise you, the link, the site, the everything. Fucking great idea. Someone build a bot. But no You Tube Music. :( Big, evil company - yes. But music and NO fucking adds makes it worth every penny, cent and rupie.

That’s not the point. Once it is done, isn’t it done? Either it works or not. It worked 5 years ago. Should work today. I don’t find myself being awed at how much better my Amazon visits are today compared to five years ago.

Broken finger. Brilliant!

I just find it sad this is actually logged. Uninstalls, that is.

The inclusion of “found” indicates that it is important to the action taken by Google, would be my interpretation.

I’ve never been able to quite let go of that movie. It’s very on-the-nose but still hits home. So many of us are what we see as the bad guys in the movie; just move it all down to earth and there we are.

I can do it to. Selectively by ear. This article seem to consider it highly unusual

but from the last time I saw this skill making the internet rounds, it’s not entirely unusual, as far as I can remember. It had comorbidity with easily being startled or something as well. If you are curious, a few minutes of search or AIing should have the correct information.

You can push liquid through them too. Makes it look like you are crying milk/blood/whatever.

True. But many people can justify it ethically.

If ever there was a chance…

If he did it for free, his words might have weight. Might.

Sence is one thing. Right/correct/true is another. The difference is important.

Same for me. He seemed so… Honest. He walked that line between left and right, not siding. It made me think, “this is a genuine guy”. Fuck me, I guess. Truly affected me more than most things lately. I realise that makes me sound cold, given recent events, but it did. Again, fuck me, I guess.

I’m not sure quite how it relates to what I said. Maybe we are looking at the word risk differently. Let me give an easy example that shows what I think normally is hidden because of complexity.

Five CEOs are faced with the same opportunity to invest heavily in a make or break deal. They either succeed or they go bus, iif they do it. This investment, for one reason or another, only have one winner (because we are simplifying a complex real world problem). All five CEOs invest, four go bust and one wins big. In this simplified example, the one winning CEO would be seen as a great CEO. After all, he did great. The reasonable decision would have been to not invest, but that doesn’t make you a great CEO that can move on to better, greener jobs or cash out huge bonuses. No-one remembers the reasonable CEO that made expected gains without unneeded risks.

Sadly don’t think this is going to happen. A good CEO doesn’t make calculated decisions based on facts and judge risk against profit. If he did, he would, at best, be a normal CEO. Who wants that? No, a truly great CEO does exactly what a truly bad CEO does; he takes risks that aren’t proportional to the reward (and gets lucky)!

This is the only way to beat the game, just like with investments or roulette. There are no rich great roulette players going by the odds. Only lucky.

Sure, with CEOs, this is on the aggregate. I’m sure there is a genius here and a Renaissance man there… But on the whole, best advice is “get risky and get lucky”. Try it out. I highly recommend it. No one remembers a loser. And the story continues.
