I admitted already that my own preference could be irrational, and I am not trying to impose my own viewpoint on the matter. Regarding "why I think work is a very important element of our own lives", see my own submission on HN fr

I am aware of that, but I am also a bit concerned about the financial sustainability of the "normal" UBI and also, to be honest, a bit concerned about two things: - when discussing UBI many comments hint at completely replacing an

The article is interesting and I am glad to see some contrarian point to the main "automation will destroy jobs" narrative but... But I think that they are comparing apples to oranges here. The engravers have not been "automa

That's the point: he gets it even if he does not need it and if it is a negligible amount of his own personal income/fortune. Universal means just that: everyone gets it. No matter if they need it or not. Maybe you could read up s

Because then you have two types of citizens: those that are considered "parasites" because live entirely off the Basic Income, and those that not get it anymore. (The fundamental idea behind B.I. is that anyone should get it, the

According to this article: https://www.extremetech.com/extreme/134427-a-paper-based-bac... you can cram around 3MB of data (in a reasonably robust way) on the side of a sheet of paper - it is unclear if they mean A4 or

I am answering here (hoping that it will be read by others too). First of all: thanks everyone for forcing me to go back and re-visit some stuff about LP/IP - I think I was wrong - some sort of search tree/branch and bound is not

As I mentioned elsewhere, it has been ages since I took an actual formal exam on Linear Programming (and Integer Programming) - since then I always used dedicated sw to solve LP (there is for example a nice, self-contained LP solver in Num

Extremely Coarse Approximation Alert Try to imagine this: by manipulating an n-dimensional matrix in a certain way, you get, at each step, a result which is guaranteed to be part of your solution space. You also have a way to find out, at

It is a bit difficult to explain Linear Programming in a forum post (so I will have to default to Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_programming or to provide a link to a nice MOOC: https://www.

I am not sure about your backtracking point. Sudoku can be solved by Integer Programming (i.e. a special subset of Linear Programming) and this does not require any kind of backtracking.

Have you ever tried a Martial Art? It does not need to make you a "fighter", but (at least for me) actually learning and improving at has never been boring (28 years of Aikido and counting).

I wanted to write something similar, so I just upvoted you and piggybacked here. "Debugging" is really a subset of "Problem Solving". My grandfather had (by today's standards) very poor schooling, but he taught me

I don't find it insulting (as an Italian), just odd. And even if they dismissed when found out it I am not outraged: it is hard to look for obscure terms in all languages to make sure you don't get bad associations in Sumerian or
