High risk bets like that cause bubbles. If that bet doesnt pay off then there will be a talent crisis that the american tech industry may not recover from
No. The powder he's promoting in the video (which performs better than pods) actually costs more per wash than the most effective pods on the market (Cascade Platinum Plus).
Not the GP, but do you think Serena Williams - world number 1 womens tennis player for 319 weeks, who trained for 5 hours per day at her peak - has insufficient grit?
Grit, or willpower, or whatever you want to name it isn't a unique, constant value. There are plenty of athletes who could spent hours training every day but are overcome by addictions. People who grind at work but cannot fill paperwork to save their life. That will diligently do something for months then stops after an unexpected interruption.
There's probably generally a bit of correlation. But just because someone can be very focused and go to extreme lengths in one aspect of their life doesn't mean they can consistently do it in every aspect of their life.
Not true for everyone, or perhaps even most playing in this space.
Every batch friends of mine have ordered has been independently tested for purity and dosing. Random batches also tested for sterility.
Plenty of folks yolo it, but it’s not like it was a couple years ago. Lots of group buys being done that order a large batch and then do random sampling for lab testing.
Not to defend buying research chemicals of unknown safety, but that isnt what he said. Independent labs test for purity and provide certification to the companies that sell them. Those certifications can be verified by anyone. So its much less trust necessary to know what you are getting.

Especially if the work is classified.
The manufacture of FOGBANK, a key material for a thermonuclear weapon's interstage, was lost by 2000 because so few people were involved with its manufacture and the ones who knew retired or moved on. It's thought to be an aerogel-like substance.
5 years and millions in expensive reverse engineering was required to figure it out again.
My favorite part about the FOGBANK story is that once they figured out how to manufacture it again, the new version of the material was more chemically pure than the old version, but this actually made the material LESS effective, so they had to add spcific impruities back into it to make it work correctly.
Instructions on Vine-glo grape concentrate during prohibition:
"Do not place the liquid in this jug and put it away in the cupboard for twenty-one days, because then it would turn into wine."
I had another friend that simply recorded YouTube videos from their smartphone. As a zealous law abiding citizen, I immediately smacked the phone out of his hand and lectured on how copyright law is the foundation of the Information Age, which is the future, and disregarding it is an affront to modern life and civilization. I made him delete all his videos, and even made him hand write letters of apologies to the YouTube creators. These creators don't reveal their home addresses, but I'm sure they appreciated the emails containing the scan of the handwritten letters.
We have an old SCSI scanner, so it took about as long to scan it as it did to write it.
