I make free videos why tf would I ever hire a lawyer to protect my parodies. It's incredibly stupid considering that I am not a billionaire and that the copyright holders are. I would be throwing my money in the bin. And they know this

Consider the following: I make a form of parody that is known as a Youtube Poop. It was all the rage last decade, but now it's a dying art. In part because of these stupid DMCA rules preventing people like me from expressing their crea

How can there be such an equation? The world is so interconnected that you'd have to factor in every single living species. Just don't collapse the food chain pls

From the title alone I will infer that it's not worth it unless you are way too much into leather shoes compared to the average person. But jokes aside, nice read. I did not know that there existed such a thing as self-polishing leathe

If a micro black hole could cause a seismic event couldn't it also just kill random people by flying through their brains?

Conformal cyclic cosmology states that the end state of the universe is conformally equivalent to its beginning and that therefore any notion of scale loses its meaning at the end/beginning of a cycle. So it doesn't collapse. It o

Well too bad ADHD makes me a fast thinker that talks over everyone else and writes code at 6x speed, but only sometimes, when I'm not procrastinating for hours at a time and when I'm not too mentally drained to engage with other p

Quantum events may be stochastic (there's still some hope for hidden variables though from what I understand -- either way, as far as the macroscopic world is concerned, it's basically random) but that doesn't mean that somew

The argument is that if you accept your precondition then you must also accept superdeterminism and that free will does not exist. Because physicalism implies that the mind is an emergent phenomenon, and because quantum physics is a linear

Wonder how long it takes before someone comes up with an AI to identify graffiti artists and cluster their artworks. It would be trivial to extract their activity map then.

Can't you just get an OPEN/CLOSED sign for like $1? Or write "BUSY" on a piece of paper and tape it to the back of your screen? Or just tell who ever is bothering you to fuck off for five minutes Or just keep a loaded gu

Cool but the only way I can stick to self-imposed deadlines is with medication. No amount of self-help and work philosophy can fix what's broken on a hardware level.

Since I can only read the first two sentences, the rest being blurred out by the paywall, I will only comment on those two sentences. It's true. Developers are paid a lot, but there's often a lot of bullshit in the way of actually

If you enter your searches as a question all you get are Quora and WikiHow links, which are two of the worst websites in existence when it comes to finding useful information. Besides that's not how search term indexing works.

I did mine by hand using plain HTML+CSS (using A4.css, then rendered to a 2-page PDF) and my employer remarked that it was a sign of attention to detail and care that many other candidates won't even bother with. I'd argue I spent

Nah it's unsustainable, right now it only works because of the hype. AI doesn't generate nearly enough value to be worth what it's being sold for. And it costs even more to run. What will ads even do in that context? At the v

Fair, but there are many categories of languages. For example, I can think in formal logic. I've learned to do that, and surely my brain takes a step-by-step approach to it, but I've also internalized some of it and I don't t
