For me its a bit nuanced, for a small website that may be constantly attacked, they may not have much of resources to work around except putting in cf safeguards in place, and I tend to look past that.

What I do not appreciate as well is companies with larger money pool also resorting to and not caring for, for example Dell has the stupidest security check that has disappointed me (a human) enough times one time that I chose to buy a competitors product.

Even if it is implying cashflow, cashflow would not include operating expenses (he has to pay those monthly), which would imply he is referring to margin not including capex?

Its not 10 months worth of revenue should be equal to purchase price. He is saying 10 months margin will cover the hardware cost, so revenue is ofcourse going to be higher, quote below.

"This is our API pricing. For our API pricing, we consider a reasonable profit to be roughly: we buy a batch of equipment from the market, and recoup the cost in ten months. I think that's a reasonable profit."

Yes it does, please read it.

how often with a structured approach like this, you end up with large completed features that don't have many bugs?

I have a feeling you didn't have time to open the link and read it.

It is a fact that many immigrants have played a pivotal/transformative roles in many different industries and their booms, nothing as great as the tech boom though. It is one of the few core engines of US staying on the frontier, but not the only engine.

Its easy to take a telescope to a fruit bearing tree, point at the roots and say look its sucking out all the nutrients from the soil.

I do not condone abuse of any system, including visa/gc system, it should only go to those that truly are builders and contribute to growth of the overall system and not act as parasites, but that's a trait not exclusive to just the people (some targeting is probably legit) you're targeting.

If you haven't read "Careless People", you should. Peoples lives, governments, politics have been altered so facebook can grow and build its influence. The least one can do is to say all that.

On the one hand, it makes sense to think of this as just another revolution as it keeps things familiar, keeps the ground underneath us intact and lets hope it goes this way.

On the other hand, if long horizon independent problem solving with almost zero human intervention or support is realized in these models 1-5 years down, then it will lead not to new tech, but essentially a new species of workers that can replace humans at all tasks, In that case, humans wouldn't really have the upper hand as an economical resource to get any work done.

But the ones drafting the documents aren't the ones fighting for the contract in court, the one who drafted slopping is happily on to the next unsuspecting client, while you bear the cost of fighting with and paying for a brand new lawyer in the courts.

There aren't any good processes that are accessible to sue lawyers for malpractice like there are for doctors and other professions, their negligence can cause entire companies to go down, but the perpetrators almost never get to pay the price.
