    Silicon Valley

    Hooli, one of the world's largest companies with nearly unlimited resources in this show, couldn't even do that. Raviga knows this. The head of Raviga has been written as some monotone binary thinker who is completely risk averse and she knows that. The writing that's led up to this doesn't...

    What? He just told them to delete the entire goddamn thing? Did you miss that part of the episode?

    Silicon Valley

    You're still not understanding that the platform is not finished, software development never is, and firing the best in the world at what he does (they fired him by the way, they didn't say "we're shifting duties". And they did it over the phone) isn't a smart move and is incredibly short...

    Silicon Valley

    There are people who would and people who wouldn't. Richard's character strikes me as the kind of person who doesn't care about the money as much as he cares about creating and being part of the creation of something monumental. So yes, I think he would leave the company. Everything he's done up...

    Silicon Valley

    I am claiming that Richard is more valuable than what he created because what he created isn't finished and both of the two other companies that reverse engineered his code have showed they were incapable of creating anything that even comes close to what he can create.

    Yes, yes I do. I even said so in the very first post: I acknowledge they will probably attempt to keep him on the team, but that's risky since he doesn't want to just be a cog, he wants to have control of his company based on his brainchild. Or are all of you convinced he'd just roll over and...

    Silicon Valley

    You do understand that software development is never ending right? And that Richard was smart enough to make his own algorithm perform twice as effectively in only a few hours, and that they've already shown the platform is not yet scalable or done and that he is the smartest one on planet earth...

    Silicon Valley

    Yes, Hooli wanted the architecture to make nucleus work, but that was a desperation play. There was no other option. Raviga HAS the software either way. Why risk firing the brains behind everything and having him go off and re-inventing it yet again even better, or risk the people they hire to...

    Silicon Valley

    I just don't get firing him as the CEO. Do they expect to be able to re-hire him at a lower position and he'll go for it because it's his baby? I mean I guess that could work by him going for it but there is no way Raviga doesn't realize they absolutely need him because he is the brain behind...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    So you think Jon Snow will reconvene with Stannis battered, broken, freezing army, rally up the wildlings and go take winterfell. Then after that he will magically think he has a right to the throne and decide to go for it and Stannis' army is just going to change allegiance and follow him to...

    I think weighing yourself every morning is a surefire way to make yourself crazy. Weight fluctuates every day just based on if you drank a lot of water and ate a lot of salt the day before. You could be down one day and up the next even if you're sticking to your routine hardcore. I wouldn't...

    Man Maytag used to be the shit. I have a 30 year old Maytag washer that still runs like a champ to this day. Although I do need to level its legs because it's a little off balance and the agitator is so fucking powerful it shakes my entire house. Thing is beast.

    Really guys? It's not a spoiler. Nobody, even book readers, know if that's true. And yes, I have never read the books. Not even one sentence. It's OK to post theories if they are stupid but not OK to post them if they are plausible?

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Because he wants to protect his sister's child from people who might hate him, since he might have a legitimate claim to the throne. Nobody can know, because then it would put them in danger as well. Let's not post fan theories in the no-spoiler thread

    Marvel Heroes 20xx

    I'm honestly thinking the best way to level him would be a power build because all his magic resource skills require huge amounts of magic, making your normal early leveling tools (blessings of odin, seer's brilliance) almost useless because they don't return enough of it. His power skills on...

    HSAs are not linked to anything. They are your own personal account and you can use them forever until the account is closed regardless of employer or insurance provider. You do not need health insurance to have an HSA. You can even use the money to buy a TV, you'll just have to pay the gubmint...

    This, in my opinion, is the biggest reason soccer isn't big here in the US currently. But we have a lot of slender hipster euro wannabes growing up now so I think in the next 10 years it will see a big enough following to garner more attention from our young budding athletes as a legitimate...
