There are superforecasters, but they're not the pundits you see on TV. Superforecasting is a great book, see if your library has it. From: https://ig.ft.com/sites/business-book-award/books/2015/longl

I love Tetlock's "Super Forecasting" Basically experts only do slightly better than random on predicting in their area of expertise.

My wife would have paid more as well. She still has her 13 because it's the smallest available smartphone. Unfortunately the new flip phones are a bit too thick for now.

If they wouldn't write or read the bill, they'd be like modern day politicians. Or I guess politicians in general. “Reader, suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself.” Mark Twain

I'm not looking down at China. I use using it as an example of there's a trade off between environmental and growth. I don't believe I offered a value statement. Yes the USA is famous for breaking treaties with the Native Ame

Daily needles vs 12K a year is a tradeoff many people may consider. Especially if insurance companies mandate Liraglutide as a first line treatment.

We can look at China that is focused on growth at all costs. If you look at rare earth metals, they're equally distributed but they are toxic to extract. The west has pretty much stopped extracting. China is still going full steam ahea

Siemens has 330,000 employees. I'd always consider that huge.

My question is where does she go from here? Like if she became my CEO, I'd really worry about my company/job.

We're fast approaching a point where you'll have to be in the same room as some in order to believe that the communication is authentic.

VSCode is JS outside the browser. It seems that companies such as Microsoft, Saleforce, want to leverage their existing JS tools.

If you are concerned about heavy metals, look at herbs: https://www.consumerreports.org/health/food-safety/your-herb... BTW I love Consumer Reports.

It's definitely sad. I'm all for the government investing in large ROI type projects and the majority of scientific research is in that category. It's doubly sad when the government is breaking up companies similar to what it

From what I can tell, it's currently an employers' market. 1) Companies are reducing salaries when they hire new workers. 2) Companies are not having problems finding in person employees. I'm going to have a surprised pikachu

I agree we shouldn't eat all the time. That's what was in my comment. Quick question, in addition to eating all of the time do they eat processed foods like I mentioned in my comment? Examples include soda, white rice, flour (Naan

If you've ever read Thinking Fast and Slow, Trump is great at appealing to System 1. He's spent his entire lifetime focusing on his branding and what people think of him. I dislike almost all of Trump's policies and his tacti
