That a binary distinction between "fringe" and "consensus" is nonsense and that trying to have a "debate manual" to argue with people holding "fringe views" is just ridiculous.

This is ridiculous. A "debate guide" on how to argue with people who hold views that diverge from mainstream opinion is just pointless. What do you think this will accomplish? Every single scientific/engineering /humanit

I agree with the conclusion, but nothing about the arguments to arrive at that conclusion sound true at all. Hardware does not have a Stockholm Syndrome. Making Chips that are better at things people use these Chips for is the correct thing

China has better robots and is better at utilizing them, since they actually have a large workforce of engineers who do manufacturing. Those engineers do not exist in the US. It is also delusional to think that humans can be replaced by rob

China built up a world class EV industry in about a decade. The US only has a car industry because it bans competition. Almost every single consumer product is made in China. Almost no consumer products are made in China. Mechanical enginee

Because China has a greater growth of productivity and also less costs. China has cultivated a culture of excellence in engineering, especially in manufacturing, which outclasses everything the US has. The greater productivity gains will ha

The idea of an American manufacturing resurgence is absurd. To whom do you sell products at like 10x of what China produces these products for? No, automation is not going to save you. Cheap labor, great engineers and energy are the key to

I think it is worth pointing out that there are "zero configuration" vim distributions, which come with the same ease/limits. Not to take away from Helix, which I think is a cool project. But I think it's greatest streng

One of the greatest pleasures of being a toxic, racist, far right, neo Nazi, extremist, hater, bigot, Hitler supporter, capitalist, fascist, etc. is that I really do not care . If you are a trans non-binary they/them I will use your s

Examples are the best Documentation to learn . If you are deeply knowledgeable about some library or language, examples become less valuable and the straight forward API documentation becomes essential.

What Intel does not seem to understand, at least from the quotes in that article, is that you are also doing open source for your customers . Doing open source makes it easy to get customers to use your products. You could also hide them b

It is paywalled. But let me just point out that "mathematical necessity" requires mathematics, which requires first and foremost rigorous definitions. "intelligence" is not a term you can define in mathematics. >Here’

Even if you do not expect a professional tone it is totally bizarre to write a technical article (which I would have liked to understand, since the question is interesting to me) as if you are talking to a toddler. The allusions to Grand co

I gave up half way through. The constant description of deep emotional feelings when it comes to something as sober as data types in the rust standard library make this rather hard to read. It is difficult to untangle the point the author i

This might sound insane to every American, but German law especially protects politicians from insults, slander and libel. (See https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/stgb/__188.html for the actual law) Yes, you read tha

You don't get it. This is not a moral argument, it is about economic inevitability. You can not be long term more prosperous than the rest of the world, while consuming more and producing less. The prosperity in the west is the result

Drug dealing is one of the most horrendous crimes imaginable. The amount of society wide suffering it causes, the amount of families it tears apart, the amount of destruction it does to health make it far, far worse than most other crimes.
