   Population growth is an S-curve, not an exponential. Fertility rates will stabilize once developing nations catch up with the rest of the world.

   This seems similar to those telemetrics devices that some car insurers offer. My guess is that they could charge more or less depending on how often you brush your teeth.

   I guess "what Rush Limbaugh can't do" is a better baseline in your case.

   People opposed to statehood boycotted the referendum, leading to a 23% voter turnout rate (one that usually hovers around 80%). That figure isn't really representative of the will of the Puerto Rican people.

    I'm guessing SAI is Super Artificial Intelligence, right? It's a mistake to anthropomorphize AI. Pity is a mammal thing. https://wiki.lesswrong.com/wiki/Paperclip_maximizer https://waitbutwhy.com&#

    Oh, definitely. America's hatred of poor people is ingrained into it's culture. The prevailing attitude is that if you're poor, it probably your fault. Many evangelical christians go so far as to say that if you're poor,

    My parents had a rule where we'd only speak Spanish at home and English everywhere else, and now I'm fluent in both languages. It might be a bit difficult for you to implement since you're the only Russian speaker, but it&#x2

    Horse poop. Presumably a device like that would use some heuristics to guess the correct words, like your phone's autocorrect.

    That's where the BFR (Big Falcon Rocket) comes in. I think Musk said that it could carry a fully loaded 747 as cargo to space.

    Your brain could be considered a general intelligence, and it only uses a couple of watts. Energy consumption isn't the issue. However, I agree. AI is a bit overhyped right now, and AGI is still pretty far away imo.

    I use a depth-first tree traversal to learn a subject. Start at something broad like "physics" and work your way down each sub-topic.

    It's possible that the first stage was also used to decelerate a bit before being jettisoned, explaining the relatively low speed

    Relevant xkcd: https://xkcd.com/1919/ I read somewhere that this might be a spent first stage, and the real spacecraft is currently decelerating as it approaches our solar system. That would explain the shape, tumbling
