I can also imagine that it minimises the tail-risk, because a human can come and fix it. If he would not be there and a critical error occurs, it could take down the whole factory in time before help arrives (maybe even something trivial as

I am a bit disappointed that it's always those grand palaces. I also want to see the environment in which average people lived, this is harder for me to imagine than those grand temples.

The current form of the EU is a stop-gap as long as not more power is transferred to the EU level. The EU is plagued by constant infighting and incoherent policies of the member states. But I think it's going better than some realise a

Netflix now has competitors. I really dislike ads and I think it will worsen the experience so significantly that I'll just switch. Even those small in-house ads for amazon prime are annoying, I can't imagine what real tv-style ad

I have an old macbook but I really like the idea to have a single cable connected to a hub where everything plugs in and your laptop charges. I just wonder whether the usb-c style connector really is suitable for it? It seems like it could

I would recommend (if you're serious) to reduce hours and make art every Friday. Most in tech make enough to continue your life, quite a lot earn less than your 4 day week. Making it in the evening is quite taxing if you're want t

I wonder if unmanned but not independent aircrafts are just too risky to rely on them completely. If the adversary develops a successful jamming attack (or whatever, idk anything about this) it denies the country to operate in the area comp

Small towns are not for everyone. It's hard to escape small towns, everybody knows you and the cultural activities are just very limited. I feel quite trapped in my small student-city, there's just nothing new anymore and I am qui

I think the more ruthless russia is going to act, the more resistance ukraine mount even in defeat via guerrilla groups. So brutally conquering the cities only helps the military objective but not the overall one. It cements western support

I would say that our ML models are not predictable enough yet at the local neighbourhood to really trust LIME. Adversarial examples prove that you just can't select a small enough range since you can always find those even for super ti

It's a bit like the glass half full/half empty, right? Nearly everything that's not crap is also published at a publicly funded university. Private universities also publish crap (including the famous MIT, I've read a di

I can certainly see some supply chain disruptions in Germany. For example, in the supermarket, there's always something out of stock that you need. But it's a minor inconvenience, nothing more than that. Just a few items. But I do
