I'm not sure I understand this comment. Could you give some examples of "zombies that are too useful to let die" right now?

"Shithole countries" and a refusing to denounce white supremacy make for an easy start.

As a center right moderate, did you vote for Trump? I might use similar terms to describe my political beliefs if I was into labels, and I feel none of this. I've always been frank about my political leanings when it comes up, and no o

Exit polling was basically meaningless in this election because mail in votes were the deciding factor.

S&P 500 is only up 90 points right now, and I don't see any evidence it was up 400 at any point today. More generally, The DOW is way up, S&P up moderately, and NASDAQ only up a little bit. That looks like it may well be a resu

Characterizing participants in an event where the goal seems to be to drive across the country with the pedal literally to the metal for as much time as possible as "careful" sounds very strange to me.

I haven't actually gotten a mortgage with them yet, still shopping. So it's always possible they're just lying to me too. I think it might be more likely that they split along the lines of current customers. I.e., if you don&

I'm pretty sure they do not. I'm currently working on a refi for my house and I considered Chase solely because I already have one account with them and it would simplify things if my mortgage was there too. I asked and was told t

I found this out when I moved recently and I find it incredibly stupid. I'm now simultaneously annoyed that my new address seems to still receive mail for the last 3 tenants, but I also didn't do a change of address so whoever end

For people without internet in rural areas, cell data probably isn't a solution. Unless you live in a very flat area, being too far from civilization to get wired internet significantly correlates with being too far to get good cell re

I try to avoid consuming too much news, so I don't have much exposure to other news sources (and I only probably get an hour or two of NPR programming per week). Given the level of coverage I've heard on NPR, I would be pretty sho

>years from now or never? I really don't think this is true. I hear stories about deepfakes on NPR pretty regularly. It would be very strange if a subject that has managed to gain some mainstream media traction was never internalize

Why not just turn off your camera? The blurring tech doesn't seem nearly reliable enough for me to trust it if my "office" was that much of a catastrophe.

by 0xffff2 6y ago
I have no problem with people choosing to leave their cameras off (I rarely turn my own camera on in meetings). I still think the complaint about poorly implemented background blur/background replacement is at least partially valid. It

I think the logical interpretation of GP is that it's never justified from the perspective of physical health. Whether religious obligations outweigh ones health is a completely personal decision that no outsider gets any say in.

I think you're missing a "not" in that parenthetical. Or you really miss going to the office and going grocery shopping?

I haven't heard this side of the story before. How do they count empty houses? Is it done in a way that makes it difficult to game the system?

I'm really wondering who this is aimed at that a 50% discount would make any difference. As an individual hobbyist, this is a service that provides maybe $50-100 worth of value to me at most. If I was looking to start some kind of busi

The primary instrument is probably a star tracker. It's possible to position yourself within the galaxy to a very high degree of accuracy by looking at changes in relative position of stars and planets which have a known "position

Honestly, "Tell me what you want!" is better than a system that forces you to listen to all of the options since "representative" is what I want 99% of the time when I have exhausted all other options and decided to do b

Maybe I'm misremembering, but I distinctly remember that basically everyone ever shown interacting with a replicator follows the generic->specific parameter hierarchy.

That's somewhat irrelevant without data on what percentage of acquihires are poorly implemented.

Of course that's how it works. We don't regularly administer small pox vaccines anymore because it has been eradicated except for a couple of very tightly controlled samples. That's what "eradication" means. My memo

Which countries have eliminated the latter 4? I would consider an illness "eradicated" if the vaccine is no longer regularly given. At least 10 years ago (when I was in the field), MMR and Chickenpox vaccines were still regularly

I've only really scratched the surface of what it would take to move onto a boat full time, but my impression is that the vast majority of boat dwellers have a permanent slip in a harbor where they spend the majority of their time. Giv

Wait, you're saying that the market is bonkers because it's so cheap, right? Or is it 150k for an empty lot with no house? Because from my perspective in nearly middle of nowhere Oregon, a house on 8 acres for $150k is crazy cheap
