The 5 reasons soccer won't increase in popularity after the world cup is over.
1. The flopping. This goes against the soul of every American. We value grit, toughness and basically not being a pussy.
2. The clock. No one wants to get to the end of a game and have no clue when it's over. Just stop & start the clock when you need to, like sane people.
3. Offsides. Just put a line out there like everyone else. This floating line you have makes the game unwatchable. It's like a built in, anti-excitement glitch you manufactured for your game.
4. Red cards. What a stupid rule that you automatically get kicked out for the next game for getting one. I can understand suspending someone after a league review of something you did that was horrible. But to automatically get suspended because of what a ref saw at full speed is stupid.
5. Ties. In America we call it kissing your sister, cause that's the same feeling you get after a tie. Pure disgust. In soccer, it seems like the result you prefer most. Play til you have a winner.
DHH thinks grinding is dumb.
What he told us on My First Million:
- "I often hear entrepreneurs talk with such pride in their voice. Yeah, I grind. This is why I'm working a hundred hours a week."
- "I don't want to do that. My life is far too interesting to waste it grinding."
- "Grinding is the stupid shit you do in World of Warcraft when you're a peon."
@wholemars lol if only he had a clue about shipping complex product— same as JRE, morons think because the team tries, learns, and adapts (plans, timelines, etc) that it’s actually some conspiratorial deception
@farzyness@grok sunk cost my dude, it's not burning cash-- the distraction of 1000s of employees would be for probably a car that doens't really have a big market given where things are going. this is opportunity cost of doing something else that's MORE VALUABLE than what you're recommending
