I wish we would, but I’m just not that confrontational, and am worried about getting in trouble for that. Plus half the cars in question are for cops. Would rather the law be on my side

What happens if you quit caffeine for a while? Have you tried to measure your tolerance? I've found that caffeine tolerance is a huge factor in how it affects me, but tolerance changes quickly. A month off of caffeine for me is a compl

> The left ignores all literature around urban crime management Can you elaborate here? Didn’t mean to get totally off rails but this seems the opposite to me. Social-democrat European cities tend to have less crime than American ones.

Or that if you're smart at one thing (math and physics), you're smart at completely unrelated things (social skills and PR).

You can punish people for past cheating. But you can't say "he cheated before, therefore he's cheating now and that's why he won." I've seen that sentiment a bit too often.

Given the amount of people who play Magnus in a year, it is not that improbable for one of them to fit this criteria.

My issue with this is that it's all circumstantial evidence. If you suspect someone of cheating but can't show it, then enact some anti-cheating provisions and move on. We can't have a rule of law based on just the suspicions

I have seen the sequence. I have also watched other chess interviews and while bad, it's really not as bad, comparatively, as you describe.

If you mean the "100% correlation" video, I highly disagree that it's damning.

But he's not a known cheater! He cheated as a minor in online play. He has never been shown to have cheated as an adult or in OTB play. Someone needs to prove one of those things before he can be blacklisted for being a cheater.

A lot of top play ends up being a certain percent intuition. Him beings bad at explaining his intuition is the lowest form of circumstantial evidence.

That "100%" analysis is very deeply flawed. The author of the video even issued a retraction ( https://twitter.com/IglesiasYosha/status/1574308784566067201... ). It's cherry-picked games and it doesn&

> What are the chances? We don't know! That's why this is an incomplete analysis. A comparison against other players of his caliber would answer that question.

That's not really the discussion. It is so much cheaper and easier to heat a house above freezing temps than to heat it to human-comfortable temps.

by aqme28 4y ago
And you can’t get out of this problem by just simulating e.g. two or three particles. That small of a system can’t simulate things like temperature in a meaningful way.

What are the differences then? I literally went to university in Germany and don't know what these significant differences are.

Can you explain? I don't know much about their admission system.

Luxembourg is a strange example but there are a lot of countries in Europe that invest in education. Germany has essentially free college and university education for everyone.

Ah yes, the "three-way match" problem. You have purchase orders going out, invoices coming in, and products coming in. It's not always easy to associate all three with eachother in the real world.

I don't understand this argument at all. Of course it isn't making money yet-- that's because it's an early technology that is still being researched. Sure it might never mature, but it seems crazy to call it a "bub
