   Given the care with which the software was built, I wonder if the hardware itself was compromised. The open hardware folks always talk about the insecurity of the closed hardware in phones; I wonder if any official narrative discussing a s

   I did the same thing. So awesome. Also wrote a script to print 4 pages on each side. Saves a ton of paper, and makes it easier to absorb.

    I like to think that dilemma is why Bezos has pledged a billion a year to invest in Blue Origin. Nice excuse to extract some cash without spooking the market.

    I remember as a kid running into that terminology for the first time, as it related to HDDs connected to a motherboard. Didn't like it at first, still strikes me the wrong way, but does seem like the best terminology for the paradigm.

    There's a lot of "foreign girls" that aren't asian, and the competition space you described was artificially created. If you want to claim "offensive" and "wrong", you need to provide a better respon

    I thought there was some kind of distinction, where they were required to use weapons that were "nonlethal".

    Are the police legally allowed to assault protesters "with a deadly weapon"? Otherwise, it seems like a countersuit would be in order. "Police claim they were assaulted, therefore they admit to assaulting us."

    > tailoring the response to pre-existing policy preferences Well, that's true of the left as well. A "bottom-up government economic intervention" fits nicely with existing left wing ideas.

    I think that the root problem that needs to be addressed is that to a lot of people, scientists and the media appear to put politics before truth. The recent hydroxychloroquine is an obvious example [1]; The Lancet should never have publish

    Already did! Those are all basic examples of those various concepts. How about something that 'mixes metaphors', so to speak? Mathematicians are a creative bunch. E.g., fuzzy sets. [1] One of the most-cited math papers ever. How

    Not the same thing in the least. I'm talking about people openly carrying guns as 'scary-looking' as assault rifles. I found the story you referred to. The difference is, the victim (at best, from the perspective of the pol

    Everyone replying to you don't seem to realize that some of these protests have involved 'well armed citizenry' already, and their doomsday predictions of the result haven't happened. https://imgur.com/g

    There have already been instances of well armed African-American people openly carrying large guns forming parts of these protests. The effect? The police have known better than to respond with violence.

    I think you're describing an analogue of turing-completeness. It's not (to me) a question of whether we can reason about something: it's a question of how long it takes, and how much knowledge is involved with the process.

    Simple examples demonstrate the idea of the system, but I would be more impressed if they took some of the more complex published math papers out there and successfully rendered the notation from those with Penrose. That, to me, would bette

    I remember in the mid 2000s talking with a ham operator. The bands didn't overlap, but they were interleaved - the radios could access bands reserved for cell calls. If you snipped the right resistor off the right radio, then you could
