I agree, I don't know where these people went to school, but maybe they are just in bad CS programs.

"I also made some mistakes in how I went about evangelizing it." What does this mean, did you use company time and resources in doing so?

The democratic party still hasn't learned from their mistakes of the last election unfortunately.

So true. It's easy to get stuck in the "preparing to live your life in the way you want" cycle instead of just doing it.

They definitely have. I recently got an old plane for a low volume flight, and the difference was night and day.

Huh? I stood for 2 hours on the Shinkansen in Japan. The non reserved car was quite full.

I do the same thing, but eventually it becomes uncomfortable on my folded arms and they fall asleep. Or the person in front of me leans back and crushes my head...

You're simulating a quantum computer with a classical computer. So if you can break crypto with a classical computer, then yes.

Might is right. If you can forcibly take my air then, yes, it is yours.

Just off the top of my head, if money supply increases at the same rate as human population growth, it seems like inflation should remain constant?

I don't know, I mean, things like rent and healthcare costs seem to be increasing at runaway speeds. I'm sure lots of other things are too, just not TVs or whatever.

Totally agree. I used to know a hardcore catholic and spend a lot of time around other hardcore catholics and I was amazed at how nearly anything could be back-rationalized and absorbed into the philosophical framework with ease. It's

"Postmodernism is poison" If there is anything that postmodernism has taught us. It's that bite-sized "truths" like this can never encompass an actual truth or reveal any meaningful reality.

Good to see improvement, but is this controlled for the fact that autopilot is mostly on highways? I'm not sure what the crash rate per mile is on the highway vs driving in a city.

True, they could both be factors. Gender bias in both cases.

I disagree, I just think it's far easier for femininity to coop masculine concepts than the reverse. Just in my personal view, it can be seen as "cute" for a girl to have a masculine name which sort of juxtaposes their femini

This is a trick question in so many ways. Almost every single company in the country pays less than Google. So you could say the same about any non-unionized company too. If unions arose out of poor working conditions then it probably follo

Depends on your betting spread and table rules. But at a deck in a half you're probably looking at around 0.75% for a pretty standard ruleset [1] The casino I usually play at cuts at under a deck and also has a side bet (Over Under 13)

Card counting schemes have almost nothing to do with the cards of others. I have no idea who you were watching but they sound like frauds. It's trivially easy to verify that counting systems work in theory. If you have a sufficiently g

This can't be stressed enough. Though I think this idea gets pushed quite a bit from Jordan Peterson and the rest of the reactionary right YT-sphere

While I understand why you'd write something like this, I think that this sort of thinking is the reason people get poor sleep nowadays anyway. This obsession with "efficiency" and "productivity". Even if it is mo

Wrap it in propaganda like everything else. When you have already established a narrative framework under which China are the good guys, and whatever is happening in Hong Kong as bad or insidious, it's easy to simply wrap it up in that

And what did marching through tear gas give us? More interventionism in South America and... Ronald Reagan?

The system is just being pushed to its limits. There is no perfect political system, and given enough time a political system will be gamed somehow. Simply, the means of gaming this particular system are even easier now.

I'd be willing to bet money that young people are the most represented group at these protests.

As opposed to not meddling? Has that ever happened in the history of government? Economics and politics are tightly coupled.

Is a boycott a form of trade war? What about an embargo? I'm surprised you can make such a sweeping statement. Frankly I don't think things are as simple as "free markets" since they don't really exist. Companies ar

The revolution isn't coming. Hate to break it to you. Surveillance and passivity tech have won out, and if something doesn't happen in the next 50 years or so it just may never happen.
