Unfortunately this might be true for the foreseeable future because of increasing technology and independent of politics. Nick Bostrom writes about this in "The Vulnerable World Hypothesis" ( https://onlinelibrary.wiley.

I wouldn't say these are the same rules for everyone. These are the rules for companies which happen to fall under the same class of exemptions that FB lobbied for.

I agree that censorship is likely not the way to achieve this, but the current social media model propagates the most absurd garbage exponentially while science / reality is left behind because of "low engagement". I feel the

Do we really need one of these to hit the front page every day? How about a weekly update or something...

Well this is kind of a silly metric to validate the efficacy of standups. What you want to look at instead is given 2 teams, one with standups and one without, which one achieves their goals more often and has higher morale.

Maybe I'm naively optimistic, but at least the scientific community has had centuries of amazing progress of approaching truth and steering away from misinformation. I'm not sure one could provide a similar example for the war on

I think this is an interesting point, and I think most would have agreed with this position 15 years ago. Unfortunately the reality of these networks to propagate garbage which negatively impacted real life was too much for them to ignore.

I highly recommend this PBS special largely dealing with the intelligence of crows: https://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/a-murder-of-crows-introducti... They might have had some other specials too, but in one they show

Ok, I guess I'm not surprised. I'm usually suspicious when the story is published on a .edu because it seems like it's often just marketing.

I was looking for the source of this quote and it's from an interview in June 2020: "I learned that my pay was about an 80% discount to market. Meaning that competitive roles elsewhere were paying about 5 times as much. That'

Yes great book. I highly recommend as well it if you want to learn more about memorization techniques or just for an entertaining read about the memorization community and history of memorization techniques.

Ok thank you for this comment. I think maybe the clearer thing about categories (if I understand this right) is that the focus for covariance/contravariance is simply on the direction of the arrow. And yeah looking at the OP if you jus

Yes, you might be right, this might be completely clear, and I just find it confusing for some reason but from the example in the OP I have no idea the point it is trying to get across with these terms, e.g: """ This is covar

Does anyone else dislike this terminology? I'm curious if there is any link at all to tensor analysis and co-variant and contra-variant vectors. (I found the terminology confusing there too) https://en.wikipedia.org/wik

I’ll grant your final comment on #3 but on the others I disagree. If CA was requesting that the federal govt do controlled burns to better protect their citizens from wildfires, and the fed govt refused, then you would have a point, but fro
