I'm kind of skeptical of the number. It also doesn't really gel that well with his 50% can't afford a $400 bill. It seems to be based on survey data from CareerBuilder which could be misleading for whole hosts of reasons.

I think the "financialization of our economy" => higher house prices is at best a part of the story. The other part is absurd zoning laws and restrictions on the supply of housing. This couples with people's expectations t

> If they cared more about provenance, they'd be less likely to be duped, and it makes it hard for me to see them as purely a victim. Fair point. I don't doubt their propensity to be duped is rather high due to self-imposed bia

No one said fake + old = museum worthy . There's far more to the Shroud of Turin's history that makes it museum worthy.

I'm familiar with the scandal. I'm just saying that it points more toward the museum having been actually duped. They are clearly interested in getting genuine artifacts given the lengths they are willing to go to obscure shady pr

If you're referring to relics in the Catholic sense of the remains or possessions of canonized saints being "fake" then there's probably an element of truth to many (most? not sure...) in that they likely were at a time

They were trying to cover up attempts at acquiring legitimate artifacts? Seems like OP is right; they are trying to acquire legitimate materials and that it is most likely they got duped.

Agreed to both parts. I think my post is still in some sense a refutation of the selected quote in the parent.

Yup. It’s also pretty obvious that eugenics would work since it works just fine across plenty of other species (see dogs, cows, chickens, pigs, etc.). This article is the identity politics monstrosity coming to take more control.

I think one of the important things I've learned since leaving higher education is that over the past ~50yrs a deep culture of gatekeeping and credentialism has developed which does far more harm than good. People are capable of thinki

I'm not sure why the amount that sales is earning is relevant. The sales team could all be earning $20B/yr each but it may very well be the case that they are worth that. He was making $220k/yr as a remote employee. That, aga

Blog posts like this are usually best interpreted as the bitter ranting of an ex-employee who was let go. The author himself was semi-notorious (possibly still so?) in the Redis community for being a bit of a self-serving demagogue (to put

I always find it interesting that people reject the idea that one should have to consider their children or their future children over certain decisions. Why shouldn't we insist that a parent or parent-to-be makes the best possible cho

I see how it’s intuition for addition/subtraction but that doesn’t tell us much about multiplication. You’re asserting that negative one times X is itself negative which is in fact what the article is attempting to prove in the first p

Drug interactions are basically the perfect type of thing to automate. It's just a lookup. For usage questions, how many parameters does that vary on? Amount, frequency symptomm? Seems very easy to automate as well. The only thing not

What is it the OP got backwards? They're not really disagreeing with anything you said, though you give more color with regards to drug interactions.
