Hi, I'm Nick, I was just accepted and given an invite to the discord

@Deleted User Santa Rosa is a beautiful place, wish I was still in Norcal so I could see them in person. Awesome job

Sleep tight guys

great job alex

I like the ny flag in the background

Unlike other silicon valley folks, Musk doesn't really have an agenda besides attempting to make his businesses successful and slowly losing his mind. He's dangerous because he doesn't tow the line, and the silicon valley elites can't predict his actions

Hey guys, I'm Nick, and I'm a ChemE undergraduate from NY, excited to talk with all of you

roll'd?

Ah, OK. Yeah, I'd be glad to lend a hand if I can, although I am just a junior right now

That's an incredible amount of information to derive from a bunch of repeating Fs. Probably just a name for some annual party they had.

Porn lawyer?

Oh I thought you meant Kavanaugh

No that guy fits the title

I very well might, math is my weakest subject. Thank you for the offer.

@Alex Kolchak - NY nice, im only a third through mine; unfortunatley I have a lame ebook

Cuomo has brought the wrath of the NY boomer upon himself

Money well spent, who needs intergalactic domination when you can prop up Chicago?

Yes but the Chicago in this timeline is enriched. The one you're thinking of would have less spicy food

History repeats itself, we need a space crusade first

RIP zeno scum

yeah he's not in the CANAL zone

i mean neither is rochester but canal zone is amusing to me for some reason

It's the area near the erie canal, so basically albany/syracuse/buffalo

Its an almost straight horizontal line across the state

Yeah np

Seems fine

Venetian republic lasted a very long time

Yeah, Venice was about 900

Lagoon gang checking in

I'm yet to see any of these italians in person myself, maybe I'll get a chance soon

Italian Hungarian hyperalliance, Mediterranean wall NOW

Even though hungary isn't actually on the mediterranean

more of an emotional support thing

Well put, my big issue is that I have trouble striking up conversations with strangers without feeling like a creep

Sorry to hear that man. It's already hard for me and I'm near plenty of people, I can't imagine how bad it is in a sparsely populated area

Yeah, same I guess. It's probably better I spent my efforts on self improvement, but its still a little depressing at times

I'm not unattractive, just uncomfortable

IMO at least

What should I look for in particular? Are there any tell-tale body signs that have worked for you guys?

For good reason too, readable body language is a tool of male dominance

But thanks for the advice so far, I'll definitely be more aware of it going forward

Yeah, same, whenever I have the time I always stay clean shaven

It really is a high caliber meme, and a very versatile one at that

Salvini posting is extremely high T. He alternates between rants about expelling invaders, and pictures of the pasta he made for dinner

I like everything he does, but I am a little concerned over the coalition budget. Considering how bad their debt-gdp ratio is, they really need to make sure they don't overspend

Lega has grown in popularity quite a bit, they might not need five star next time

But they probably wont' be able to clear 40% alone

Salvini started out as a social democrat/lukewarm socialist or something like that

Yes, very notable italians, with very strong jaw lines

Media doesn't like five star because antiestablishment, but its lega that really gets their blood boiling

Probably because 5 star was way more powerful

^^

Yeah forza almost crashed as hard as PD

You can't be pro immigration in italy anymore and expect to win elections, which of course, is a good thing

Not that forza was really ever pro immigrant, but pd was for sure

@Kingfish Absolutely. If they have another election soon lega will probably explode

In a good way

Yeah, he runs the rhetoric more than the administration

Although, to be fair, he takes a lot of heat anyway, probably more than conte. He just doesn't have to focus on the nuts and bolts

Yeah, I get that, he kind of lacks vulnerability

And he's pushed the window of discourse way further to the right, especially on immigration. He basically forced 5S to come along to a lite version of his own ideas

Did someone say upstate AND minecraft?

Yeah real life activism is cool, but have you painstakingly remade ithaca in minecraft?

Maybe five or six weeks for me

Is this an open conversation or an interview or something? I missed the first few minutes

What's the IE official manlet cutoff?

It's over for me guys

I think I can beat 5'0 though

I kind of agree with that. I think glasses lend themselves best to a clean, academic kind of look, and long hair often contrasts with that aesthetic.

I get what you're trying to do, I just don't think you have enough data right now

I think that kind of depends. First off, successful startup doesn't necessarily mean fortune 500 company. Even if we were to make that assumption, we don't know exactly what percentage of cofounders are immigrants, because those 40% of the companies could all have more than one, or just one immigrant cofounder

To be honest friend, I don't know. That's a subjective question. The main issue is that you're extrapolating the startup company cofounder number onto the fortune 500 companies. If fortune 500 companies had, say, only one founder on average, or ten, it would tremendously disrupt your data

Also, like micbwilli said, immigrant is a very broad term. You could also try splitting up immigrants by national origin, which I think would prove a similar point. If that data isn't available, you might be able to find data on immigrant entrepreneurship pre and post 1965, which would also probably be useful

That's ballsy to write in college, to be honest

You can always try being really literal, and kind of avoid the question. I don't know what the essence of the assignment is

Do you want to represent your views, or are you full incognito and just want to do the assignment?

I think that qualifies for beast mode chief

My school let in so many chinese students that I don't even have to redpill, they're doing it for me

No, you're absolutely right. You need to have a read on your audience

You've got a unique writing style, really cuts straight to the point. I wonder if those statistics (development, infant mortality, etc.) vary depending on the colonizing nation. For example, I wonder if British colonies, as a collective whole, fared better than Belgian or French ones

I think creating waterproof arguments for our idea is pretty vital, although there's one possible confliction I've noticed within the argument. Overall, I think it's a good piece, I'm just playing devil's advocate here. It would make sense that a colonizing nation would hold onto colonies containing valuable natural resources for longer durations of time. It also makes sense that they would send some of their own natives to create a stable government, loyal to the home nation. These colonies would be held onto most fiercely, and might be the last do decolonize. Since they are so resource rich, they naturally have better GDP outcomes than sparse colonies that were abandoned earlier
