Also going on a boat to leave the US would be very stupid. There's a reason migrants take the Mediterranean route, instead of the Atlantic route.

After all, how can you be an expert on something without experience?

I've been developing software in Germany for years now, and while offshoring never completely stopped, the trust in offshoring dropped a lot. And only very basic tasks are sent abroad, since cultural differences have made it impossible

Interesting, it's very common in German, and I've only ever heard Germans saying it in English.

Yes, den Geist aufgeben, never heard it in English from non-German speakers, but TIL.

I'm pretty sure that pre-Curie Europeans did a lot of digging tens of meters in the ground. If that knowledge somehow gets lost, which over such a long timeline seems almost likely, people will die from radiation poisoning without know

Aside from macronutrients being too broad to be entirely meaningful. The underlying assumption that there is an optimal ratio already seems naïve. Humans probably have wildly different nutrition needs depending on how physically active they

I'm not that convinced. Latin was used past the crumbling roman empire because it was sticky. Like you said, the only way to communicate. And English already spread to all continents, something Latin didn't have at the time. If e.

>1. So you start digging and find huge concrete cylinders with clearly marked "radioactive" warning signs. Hilarity ensues, people sue each other, and cylinders get moved somewhere else. The radioactive symbol (trefoil) was inv

I agree with your analysis, but the process might be the most valuable thing here, getting rid of lead.

I think what kevinwang is getting at, is that if you A/B test with a static version A and enough versions of B, at some point you will get statistically significant results if you repeat it often enough. Having a control doesn't m

Brain size in modern humans is also only weakly correlated with intelligence [1]. So they might not even have been stupid due to their smaller brain size. Sperm whales don't have much of a chance to manipulate their environment, but th

This is very on point. Premature abstraction has always a struck me as way now evil than what premature optimization can create. Every class has an interface abstraction, or worse inheritance hierarchy, that adds friction to change, even th

It's ridiculed because trust was immediately violated, and trust is not what science is built on. However just being an everything skeptic without any scientific education is not good either. The problem was the politicization, the dis

Occasional might also be different from one-off. If you'd one-off anything your brain might be very much busy with thinking about: What's happening next? Am I feeling the effects now? Is this it? It might end up you're distra

Interesting. In Chinese 合 (hé) can mean whole, but also pronounced gê (I don't have e with 3rd tone character) it can mean a measure of grain or 100ml. 公合(gōnggê) can be used to be specific here.

I find if you combine this with a strong type system like in F# the promise is upheld. You need strong type guarantees on the parameters to make it easy to understand the behavior though.

I think this might have to do with sugar being more expensive. Today sugary drinks are associated with poverty, lack of self-control, lack of education. Champagne is a status signaling drink, you don't want to signal that.
