This conflict appears to be a single manager who told people not to complain about new people being hired at higher rates or to discuss wages, in conflict with Tesla's own policies on the matter. I would probably expect them just to f

If they suspect him so strongly one might think they should actually charge him.

I think we should also reflect that the only evidence so far is a video of someone wearing a mask and I've yet to see any other public evidence that it's actually this same guy - > Joe Alioto Veronese, an attorney who is close

You made me curious so I found an inflation calculator online to check: > $20 in 1900 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $718.66 today, an increase of $698.66 over 123 years. The dollar had an average inflation rate of 2.95% per

Try this exercise: Go through that article to find every specific prediction you can (e.g. broken glass & damaged foundations in the town 8.5km away). Then compare these to what happened. When I tried it, I found that they were more in

If someone tells you that someone is wrong and yet they can't explain how, they're a broken clock.

This seems like it'd be really good on spacecraft.

That's not how psychos like this work in general, you're making it sound like he's a lot more normal than he actually is. This is a good case for the death penalty, because this is the type of person who can't be safely

I was curious about the argument you seem to be making here, so I ran it past a researcher I am acquainted with and he said this (with some minor edits for clarity): In the case of IQ, we can identify the model through the exogenous quantit

The whole point of the fallacy is that this other stuff isn't relevant to the truth of the argument, and it does nothing to inform us about the argument. You can't figure out the time by arguing over broken clocks. And you'r

The source cited for "it's worth looking up whose blog this is" is almost entirely dedicated to the proposition that he's a bad person with nothing whatsoever about his argument about the Flynn effect. You're just k

Indeed, we started with "this guy's argument is wrong, he's a bad person" which does nothing to refute the argument because it never engages with it. I truly don't know if he's right or wrong, I just know that

Well, anyone given sufficient study can chase down those definitions to precise terms that can be used to make things. If I wanted to normalize LGTBQ families with "ontological choreography" I can't get enough meaning out of

Then who are said STEM majors refuting?

by Natsu 4y ago
I exaggerated to make the point, but taking any degree of information from it is fallacious, because it contains no information about the time. And of course you wouldn't do that for a broken clock, but you are here taking information
468.
by Natsu 4y ago
I looked up both terms, being familiar with neither offhand. The term "ontological choreography" comes across to me as something like an arrangement or dance of meanings and appears to have been coined by someone whose concern was

by Natsu 4y ago
Yes, it is. It absolutely is a fallacy to use that as your reason instead of something about the argument itself being wrong. To use an analogy, even stopped clock can be right twice a day. Nobody expects anyone to use such a thing to tel

I remember a possibly apocryphal quote from a park ranger saying that there was a significant overlap between the smartest bears and the dumbest tourists.

Oddly enough, I do know how, both via school (home ec) and more importantly, due to older relatives who were into quilting. I have zero interest in ever doing it, but I absolutely do know far more than I ever wanted to about sewing. I thin

Yeah, this is almost certainly some AML provision that has gone amuck, but they'd rather inconvenience you in a silly way to prove that they were "doing their job" than to get themselves shut down due to sanctions.

I mean, I agree that there are varying levels of legitimacy, but that's kind of baked into the system at this point and it doesn't help that plenty of spammers don't have legitimate unsubscribe buttons and sell your email to

Usually they're called NPEs, non practicing entities and differentiated because their use of patents is to use them to extract tolls rather than to build things. Which isn't to say that established players don't also use them
