Really, control theory helped you understand Agile? Please, do go on. I would love to hear the specifics.

I think you might be overestimating the role emotions and identity play in maintaining the integrity of a system of epistemic statements. There are structural reasons beyond simply how much I like my ideas or other incentives to keep my ide

What you're talking about is puritanism or something like it. That's different from saying that the sexual needs of people should be emulated with porn. Even if the consequences are similar – less real sex with people and thus fun

I believe that a field needs crackpots as much as they need fundamentalists for the optima-breaking reasons you outline. I'm not sure if you could institutionalize crackpottery – seems like the kind of thing that when measured, goes aw

Blunt out the complexity of the road for self-driving, I see.

> kids A demographic inverse pyramid occurs when parents decide to breed below replacement rate. I intend to have two or more children, preferably around four children, as a way of ensuring that my values exist more strongly over the com

Would I have been better off if I just said "(rape!)" (i.e. remove "town")? Just saying "sex market imbalance" felt too P.C. when the real consequence I was trying to emphasize was yeah, guys are going to behav

> difference of values I think that the extreme cases become more likely for non-Western cultures, even if we assume that the distribution of rapes per ethnicity follows a similar average between populations of West and non-West. Islamic

These are good points and sum up what I think are the strongest contras to my argument. From here it seems reasonable that the problem is spread.

> taxes I was hoping that it wouldn't come down to that sort of thing - exploiting the refugees as a taxable resource. Because it seems kind of two-faced, to have Janus wear compassion/universalism on one side and to have taxin

They do! Germany, the UK and the Scandinavian nations are the only European countries (that I was aware of circa within the week) to be actively accepting Syrian refugees - every other country in between them AND the Mediterranean have had

On a personal note, I'm more likely to investigate anti-refugee arguments because I feel like they're underrated. I agree with the sentiment that we should understand that we're dealing with humans here, not numbers; but just

"Play on X for a political point" carries no information as anything can be construable as a political point. One is just as liable to hear pro-refugee stances be used as a "political-point" for the sake of votes as anti

This is an interesting idea, I wonder if it has any merit.

OK, I thought relational modelling was more niche than that, thanks. But as long as we're on the topic of the kernel language model, I'm getting reminded of the fact that every time we add a stratification to the KL, we don't

Yes, this is close to exactly what I was looking for. Between this and a database management systems book (as per paperwork's suggestion) I think I would get both "a lay of the land" and "a cathedral to build on" wh
