Very few of the startups I’ve worked for have given board seats before Series B.

What’s worse, many real brands you recognize sold off their brand name a while ago so you’re not even getting the product quality you might expect.

It's pretty cool being on Hacker News and seeing some new science in a field I briefly worked in. The principle scientist on Punch is Craig DeForest who I met a few times at various geo and heliophysics conferences. It's awesome to see he and his team are still out there doing new science.

Ukraine was invaded and is defending its sovereignty against a nuclear power.

Yes. But "harrowing stories" by escaping russians are by my estimation as a russian are 88% bullshit.

Because they’ve been getting away with it unchecked for decades.

Aren’t actual black holes electromagnetically charged? That would certainly be a problem if your body was bombarded by them, right?

Referring to this quote: If a primordial black hole tunnels through your body, you probably won’t die.

From searching it’s unclear if these journal articles are peer reviewed. Some say yes. Others say no?

According to the article, a rock has a 0.000001% chance of having been hit by a PBH in the last billion years. It's entirely possible that not a single human being has been hit by a PBH in the last million years. "Bombarded" doesn't do justice to the low concentration of these projectiles.

In general, no. I'm not a physicist, but I get the impression that black holes are actually expected to shed any charge pretty aggressively via hawking radiation.

Trump can’t speak about anyone he opposes without giving them a childish nickname, seems fair to reciprocate. Going further, it appears that the leader of the nation modeling this behavior also normalizes it.

Please do! Would make for some great merch. https://publicintegrity.org/politics/mitch-mcconnell-senate-...

While it might be fair, I'm saying that using childish nicknames does no favors if you're trying to make people agree with what your saying.

I don't think following Trump's footsteps with tit-for-tat name calling is beneficial to anyone.

There’s a setting to change that :)

parents hold responsibility for minor children.

There are many state actors that attack targets of opportunity just to cause chaos and asymmetric financial costs.
