Reminds me of the Tron Legacy boardroom scene UI!

While I agree with much said, I believe there seems to be a flaw in how he groups wealthy individuals based on how they create wealth.

> In the real world you can create wealth as well as taking it from others. A woodworker creates wealth. He makes a chair, and you willingly give him money in return for it. A high-frequency trader does not. He makes a dollar only when someone on the other end of a trade loses a dollar.

In a market economy, people and companies are rewarded if the market sees the given service or product worth the price. The woodworker didn't create wealth out of thin air, and he gains wealth by taking it from the people that buy his wares. Same goes for a high-frequency trader, even though she doesn't build anything with her hands, the process of trading is seen as valuable by the market and if done well rewarded accordingly. The only groups that can "create wealth" are national treasuries which can print money.

Does anyone know of any working alternatives? We use Zoom a lot, it has the most hideous UI and the worst UX but so far it's been the only video platform that reliably works with tens and hundreds of attendees.

I would argue that seeing vegetation on a map makes navigation easier. Which is the purpose of Apple Maps, right?

I have to agree. Basic search and replace queries are very readable in Mongo and very easily constructable. Imo the advantage of SQL queries shows the best when having to do complex aggregation in Mongo.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Teleport (https://teleport.org/). This entire service was created to find a better place to live, allowing you to compare various attributes of each city.

Do you also buy small, 1 to 3 person businesses? If you do what kind of deals do you do with the funders, as you would need them to work for you?
