Progressive taxes hit wage earners, while its the owners who will reap the benefits of AI. We won't get a share of the fruits without solving how to properly tax wealth(in a world where money is power, and its trivial for rich people t

Is this not just a linguistic issue, where people say normal distributed but actually mean approximate or assumed normality? Its not like height is normally distributed (there is nobody 8 feet tall), but its not like the distribution bares

As I said above, I explain the cultural norms making it seen as acceptable. I am not trying to convince you, and I am certainly not interested in a bunch of random tangental discussions. Maybe the poor kid would rather not tell the trai

First, lets me clarrify that I am trying to explain how this practise is justified in Norway, I am not arguing for or against it. Some of the justification is pure cultural traits, which you can try to understand even if you dont agree with

Yeah, tail call elimination, is definitely doable. Python famously does not have it because "Language inventor Guido van Rossum contended that stack traces are altered by tail-call elimination making debugging harder, and preferred tha

Thats not at all a leason I learned during my years with game theory. It sounds like a life-lesson completely orthogonal to game-theory. And wrong I must add, ignoring people who have made an actuall change in the world (although its true t

(I agree with your comment. To add). Fairphone can be gotten with stock Android, but also "/e/OS", which is a fork of LineageOS, and presents itself as both more privacy focused and de-googled than stock Android. So it a

Honestly, Openzl looks even cooler! It would be cool to have it integrated with parquet and avro encoders. If I understand correctly the compressed files should be decompressable with standard tools.

Given the outcome in Venezuela (and Trumps relationships with dictators in generally), it don't seem like that is something Trump necessarily sees as a bad outcome. As long as the dictatorship trades oil and let some American companies

My point is that this is the norm, not the exception in legal systems. It's good for laws to be clear cut and unambiguous, but in practice the world is not, and laws gets interpreted as courts use them.

In general the justice system don't care much what your idea of the law is. If its not clear through the actuall law or the accompanying comments what constitutes hate speech, it will be cleared up by the court itself.

Usually when one talk about sorting, without specifying closer, one means comparison sort [1], which indeed has an average-case lower bound of O(n*log(n)). In more special cases all kinds of other runtimes are possible. 1: https:/&#x

But with power the final product it's the same, the production method is different. So it's more like this: I make a product for 5 and sell it for 6. My production facility is maxed, but there is still much demand. So I (or someon

That's just marginal pricing, which is the pricing in many (most?) markets. It just means that the price is determined by the price where the demand curve crosses the supply curve.

I have been going partially down the same road, getting my own domain for email, so I can switch between providers (or self-host) in the future. A couple of notes: - You dont actually own the domain, you kind of lease it, and will have to p

This is a good point. Made me think about how I will usually read if first, but in the browser. And it's easy for the server to check the user agent, and serve me a different version in the browser!

Not many numbers in there. I would be interested in some measure of energy and effect per volume, e.g how many kWh of heat are we talking about at e.g 1 liter, and how fast (kW) can it produce it?
