Spoken like someone who hasn’t met people like that.

They’re significantly more one dimensional than the wage slave tbh. At least the wage slave has the character of resentment.

You really think the world is better off with every halfwit creating due art?

If that were the case Beverley Hills would be a bastion of culture and progress.

Instead what is it? Oh yeah, a hedonistic playpen.

To be honest, most executives wish they could fire 10% of their staff. Once you get to even 30-40 people, 10% of your staff are almost inevitably dead weight. Unfortunately you can't mass cull without causing morale issues.

This period is just giving us a chance to shed those people without cultural ramifications.

…what? All the executives would leave. What are you talking about

Judging by their English they’re almost certainly from the Baltic so I don’t think his tone was intended as disrespectful

The problem is you could have said the same in the 90s for veggie burgers. Existing and slowly expanding doesn't mean it hasn't been a flop - especially considering the monumental amount of capital & hype that was put behind plant based meat

From that perspective, it's definitely been a flop (so far). Jury is still out on long-term lab grown meat.

Where there is progress there are yuppity losers sueing it into oblivion

These are the same people who then blame capitalism for their mental health issues

If $135m in 2 years is a dying breath then Jesus take the wheel

Right, you'll have a lineup of talented people wanting the job for $0

Miserable HN devs strike again

And yet those 40% are living so maybe “living wage” doesn’t make any sense.
