grind for a decade [trying to help make superintelligence to cure cancer] OR [whatever]
I have spent the last decade doing either:
- riding a flying pig to frozen hell and back
or
- something.
Wow, look at that sass. Are you doing anything later tonight? 'Cause I doubt you'll be posting here.
Very fine people at YouGenics. They sponsor our karting team, the Race Scientists.
I missed the AI bit, but I wasn't surprised.
Do YC, A16z and their ilk ever fund anything good, even by accident?
Cool. Do Oxford comma next!

Do you expect me to walk?
No, Mr. Bond! I expect you to buy!
Perfect timing, "self", if that really is your name. I was just getting tired of the dirty talk 😇
Me dropping a radioactive gold bar on my foot: "Au!"
Oh dear, please give Mr. Gerard my apologies for assuming first name basis, how impolite of me.
I think calling gold "most stable currency in human history" is pretty buggish, but maybe by the time I'm intellectually ready to go back to college I'll figure out why it isn't.
Sure, investment in gold is reasonable. Particularly compared to most of whatever the hell Trump administration is doing. You said goldbugs are unreasonable yourself, so your initial hostile tone seems misplaced. Most likely you either misunderstood what was said or felt that the remark about goldbugs was meant to include people as reasonable as yourself, even though no one said investing in gold is unreasonable per se.
As for your later hostile tone, that is perfectly understandable because I'm being almost as much of a condescending dick as you are.
Come to think of it, dragon types are know to be big on hoarding gold so I guess it's natural for you to take the issue so personally.
