It was because you have to prove defamation and nothing bad happened to the guy as a result of what Musk said, so hard to prove they were defamed.

Ever since I heard of an elderly man being trampled to death on Black Friday the whole holiday makes me sick. I just don't purchase anything (except utilities I guess) on black friday. I wish traditions like this would die.

That's a terrible plan considering any one of their competitors could not raise their own prices and now be a preferred choice to Uber.

It looks interesting at least, It's hard to tell how gimmicky it will be though. I've felt like a lot of VR experiences I have had felt gimmicky. Some of my best VR experiences have been more in line with games like beat saber rather than story driven games. I'm also the type of person that pretty much exclusively plays story driven games so I want to like those experiences in VR but they just feel kind of off to me and not relaxing.

No, inequality would skyrocket. The most able people are those who are usually most privileged because they've been groomed their entire lives to go off and be useful.

Knew it was going to be mturk. I did mturk in college writing product reviews for international companies. It was like 5 dollars for 300 words usually.

Mturk seems like a great way to create datasets as well, there are a lot of stories of people creating datasets with mturk jobs however you will need some type of algorithm for filtering out people who are just clicking to get through things and not really labeling anything.

It's also a combination of drug management. Almost all competitive athletes at a high level use some type of steroids in off seasons.

I think of it kind of like TripleByte which I see as an automated phone screen

It's my understanding that with the creation of resuscitation methods and life-support systems that clinical death was already redefined to include cessation of brain activity. If they were not put on life support for example they would meet the definition of death through cessation of respiratory system and heartbeat. Pretty sure this guy doesn't have a leg to stand on.
