Every time Sam asked Lex a question I was excited for some discussion and then disappointed when Lex started talking. He either goes off on random tangent or doesn't get to the heart of the question / debate. Just very shallow and

I see your point, but there is a line and maybe America is actually worse. There are a lot of countries I am very familiar with where if I lived there I would not have a problem sending my kids to public schools. Here I live in a good distr

What this normally looks like is a project leader that syncs with each developer as needed and aggregates that into the project management overview with no/minimal large stand-ups or syncs. If two developers should adjust or be in cont

I have/had anxiety disorder and breathing exercises can definitely trigger panic attacks. So while yes it's there to cover all the bases, it's not that odd and is definitely a thing.

So I actually listened to a few episodes. It was surprisingly good, but definitely niche. The immediate things that I noticed were the audio quality, your talking speed (often slightly too fast, especially when excited), and saying "li

Very cool but noctie seems to be timing out now - worked fine for me the first two times. Does noctie treat the opening any differently when factoring in ratings. I had two very different estimes - higher one (2100) was from an opening line

There are possible legal reasons they wouldn't reverse an account ban of this sort. There are also several instances of Google employees or their spouses being banned and AFAIK none have led to any criminal charges - e.g. https:/

Do you have any links to these latest studies that I can take a look at? If you're just talking about the Flynn effect, then your conclusion is overreaching. IQ is still very highly heritable and adjusted for the Flynn effect has very

It's definitely better but I still find mixing inconsistent enough that I have to cycle through profiles on my AVR(denon)/system(performa3) to find a mixing that works. Mostly seems to be an issue with stuff in the last couple of

In my experience, these slackers do exists in meaningful numbers (maybe most of PIPed but I know at least a few long timers). That said, an even bigger problem is that the majority of people are incentized to slack in some capacity. The imp

And not only the apps. The branding and lack of focus. And now they bundle YT music with YouTube. Talk about missed revenue. The entire thing is such a disaster. The fact this was given as an example is hilarious.

He's talking about music though. The fact that YouTube was able to start their own music app and then eat the Google brand - and then Sundar gives this as an example of efficiency. Missing the forest for the trees IMO. I would point to

There is a non-trivial amount of people within Google that are taking advantage of the system and getting away with next to no work. No cutback will be perfect and people that don't deserve it will be impacted. But some people really d

If there are enough lightbulbs impacted then why not. We should measure these things and then compare them.

Did you get the powder from Amazon perhaps? I'm pretty sure we got fake detergent on Amazon before and it caused our dishes to not clean properly. Also if you have a water softener you should typically use less powder. We definitely ge

Nature can still be important for even highly heritable traits. For example, the size of a person's vocabulary is highly heritable, but a feral human will have very limited vocabulary. Such traits still have a very strong biological ba

Some of the design choices that went into JWST will be fixed with larger diameter payloads. When we get into the government allocating funds it gets tricky. Cheaper launch costs could just mean that the savings go into the telescope rather
