My reaction to this information is, anyone is welcome to build a city. I don't think the government should block you from it. I'll even pay part of my salary to keep you there. But do not come looking to me to adopt your way of li

I don't exactly understand. If you don't pay taxes in the USA (as a normal every day person), you will literally be put into jail. If it is true what he is saying, that his taxes subsidize my SFH lifestyle, then he is correct to s

Ok, let me try to take your post point by point. I am happy for you that you are living in a community that sounds like it is more or less to your liking. I am not saying your lifestyle should be illegal or prohibitively expensive, which I

Sorry I'm not sure I agree with this either. How does he have a choice to not pay taxes?

I would be very interested in hearing how you subsidize my lifestyle, and I will refrain from flippant attacks like "do you pay my mortgage" because it sounds like you are alleging there is some externality that I am producing tha

Sorry, dense housing is loud, smelly, and dangerous. You can't force me to live in a prison like that. The world simply needs less people. Trying to cram more people into less space is inhumane.

I just started taking zepbound and I went from binge eating 2-3 times a day to eating half a meal overnight. I've already lost 12 pounds (6% of my bodyweight) in a week, which is definitely too much, but I was full of salt. I basically

Ok, so your opinion is that in X number of years, we may well hit some new level of decarbonization where we have severely contained or reversed the effects of climate change and so on, thanks to a relatively decentralized cooperation betwe

That's right. So essentially we are in a deadlock where every side says "im only contributing fractionally to the problem", and nobody on Earth really has the full capability of blocking the activities you described from happ

I feel like we are already there. That these people are allowed to keep the profits they made through lying and environmental destruction-- ("um well actually compared to generations past we are much greener")-- is the most tellin

Backpressure signaling can be handled with your own "event loop" and array syntax. Manually managing memory is in fact almost always better than what we are given in node and java and so on. We succeed as a society in spite of thi

by chickenzzzzu 1y ago
Why? Why is a stream better than an array? Why is the concept of a realtime loop and for looping through a buffer not sufficient?

by chickenzzzzu 1y ago
It's a good one with some history and growing public knowledge now. I'd encourage a deep dive, it goes all the way back to at least CPP and small talk. While I can see some arguments for "we need good tools like Node so that

Yet more architecture astronaut behavior by people who really should just be focusing on ifs, fors, arrays, and functions.

The reason why businesses fail after becoming wildly successful is because of mismanagement. You could literally do nothing, spend nothing, and as a company invest in t bonds and index funds, and end up better than America Online, Sears, My

Now tell me how many years extra you live compared to the you that just eats healthy but doesn't exercise outside of 3000 steps a day (not bedridden, not intentionally exercising)

by chickenzzzzu 1y ago
Such platitudes are legitimately useless as nearly everyone who injured themselves while exercising immediately sees the error in their ways, but that doesn't help them undo the permanent damage they've done

The only thing that can be stated as definitely good is that every person receives as much wealth from the profits of their actions in proportion to the amount of legitimate, valuable effort and vision that they contributed. EDIT: ive been

And why was it possible for that rigging to occur? It sounds like a cop out, but the answer is once again centralization. The operation you described requires money, time, power, coercion, and so on. Isn't that a result of a two party

by chickenzzzzu 1y ago
What you are describing seems to me to be a direct side effect of centralization. If the USA was just one country in a sea of two hundred roughly equal countries, the majority would quickly say "we will not allow that person to be a le

Yes you are correct in your interpretation. Here's my further opinion: Those with power and money fund things. Anything else just a name-- "aristocracy", "government/democracy", "private companies". T

Hopefully people will now see the benefit of not centralizing basically all of the power and money on Earth in institutions. It is extremely annoying how it is a natural fact of life that entities tend to agglomerate and acquire each other,

thank you for providing that extra info! i agree that $2000-4000 is not an absolutely earth shattering price, but i still wonder what the benefit one receives is when they say "2.5 year old laptop" instead of "64GB M2 laptop&

To emphasize this point further, at least with my efforts, it is not even possible to buy a 64GB M4 Pro right now. 32GB, 64GB, and 128GB are all sold out. We can say that 64GB addressable by a GPU is not exceptional when compared to 128GB a

by chickenzzzzu 1y ago
That's great! Why can't we say that instead? No need to overly quantize our headlines. "64GB M2 makes Space Invaders-- can be bought for under $xxxx"
