Hmm, yes, that's an important factor. Let's say the average CO2 concentration in a mask is 19000 ppm (mid-point of 8000 ppm and 30000 ppm). If only 5% of the air inhaled by volume is from the mask and 95% is from outside air (440

The CO2 levels in masks are much higher than in outside air. Even if CO2 in our air has risen from around 280 ppm to 440 ppm since the pre-industrial times, CO2 concentrations in masks are at least one order of magnitude higher. My CO2 mete

I think it’s more fundamental than this. They do not want their education to be conditional on having MSFT software on their phone, or handing over personally identifiable data like their phone number to a big tech corp. But the students we

Clearly we must make many compromises with our privacy and personal data day-to-day. Perhaps this is not how things should be.

To me this looks like it’s about principle of not being denied education if you do not consent to big corp EULAs.

The emails mention students only using FOSS. And while they are the minority, their point of view is reasonable. Studying should not involve handing over one’s data to MS or any other big tech corp without good reason.

Our car UX is becoming terrible for both touchscreens and physical controls. It could benefit from simplification a lot, and I think Tesla had many good ideas, even if they might have over-committed to the touchscreen. For example, VW cars

It's an interesting strategy. There is an element of FOMO if one cancels, but I don't personally know a single developer who wants to cancel their JetBrains license anyways.

I expect that people downvote these things based on emotion and not reason. It's been very perceivable that IKEA's quality has gone down over the years. Though it is a bit regional as ultimately quality is influenced by the local

It highly depends on the region and the local manufacturers they use. IKEA furniture is of very good quality in the Baltic/Scandinavian region in my experience, and significantly poorer quality in the UK. I’ve also seen many packing mi

The voice chat is available 24/7 but members of offices that have someone to onboard are usually participating, which helps. If a new team member works office hours in California, someone from CA will usually be there, or someone from

I think we should not judge Joe Rogan for the guests he hosts or who he gives platform to. And I think he is right to interview people some might consider reprehensible. The conversations are interesting and illuminating, and he is skilled

One of the commenters higher up in the chain expressed a sentiment that classifying the lab theory as misinformation or hate speech silences the discussion. I agree and argue that we should not go as far as to label the topic as such and di

I agree. Should we then respect Joe Rogan’s right to host and give platform to controversial (or even reprehensible) guests if he chooses to do so? Does that reflect poorly on his moral character or not necessarily? Also, is there value for

Is there any proof of any significant number of people justifying violence towards the Chinese because of the lab leak theory? It takes many logical leaps. First, one has to believe the lab leak happened, which we can’t say with certainty —

I did not speak about forcing anyone to do anything, but rather about what would be the right thing to do. Could you steel-man this idea instead?

I am not convinced that the proposed “alternative influence network” is much different from any echo chamber with influential figures on social media. Including people like Joe Rogan in the supposed AIN makes this article even less convinci

In relinquishing our right to violence, we demand both influence over its use and transparent practices. Injustice arises when this exchange fails to be equitable, particularly when the government monopolizes violence without being held acc

We crave luxury, convenience, decadence, and status, with our sole concern being how inexpensively we can attain them. Is anyone still naïve enough to believe that money is the only cost? This mindset is likely a significant contributor to

To my mind, another problem is the one-sidedness of this effort. Why is someone privileged to scan my data but I can’t write a scanner and parse theirs? There seems to be a fundamental injustice here. Completely ignoring privacy as a concep

It seems like at T+55s to T+65s you can observe a LOX leak in both telemetry and the bright flame. Around T+02:30 the assembly flips horizontally at least 90 degrees based on the telemetry and the camera views.

This honestly doesn't sound bad to me although it depends on how it's implemented. If patients are informed ahead of time and can easily opt out by a variety of methods, then I think it's ethical. I would donate my data for s
