Spending is important, GDP is a nothing burger and national debt means the country was captured by bankers. I like how Richard Wolff put it: There is a reason business school and economics aren't in the same building. But people are de

I've picked orders. If I have to touch your purchase for 20 seconds it is a very long time. There are 180 chunks of 20 seconds in an hour. If the pay is $45 per hour it would cost 25 cents. It is strange how this isn't obvious

We should extort grown-ups to pay for the younglings. 1-2% of your earnings forever. That way we get professionals who aren't a pack of hyenas looking to put the squeeze on everything an everyone. Those will rip you appart like a sheep

I forget his name or even when an where it was or how it ended but some kid wanted to start his own school. People were skeptical to say the least but he put in the work. It turned out more than a few professional teachers were more than a

I would put it more generic. I love that one can now ask as many dumb questions as it takes about anything. With humans there is this point where even the most patient teacher has to move on to do other things. Learning is best when one is

The content of the div can be used to support legacy browsers. It can have a link, iframe, a message or an outdated version of the content/menu/header/footer etc

They can just be html chunks. No need to make sense on their own. Maybe a single tag that points at an url to load if someone attempts to load the chunk directly.

You can message the page dimensions to the parent. To do it x domain you can load the same url into the parent with the height in the #location hash. It won't refresh that way.

It would be nice to be able to delete all cookies not associated with a saved password or login.

From what I understand bloom filters have a hash per item but when i invented (hah) them I used a bit array for each property where each bit describes an item at the same offset. When searching for some properties one can do an AND on those

OT but funny: I see a YouTube video with a lot of before and after photos where the coach guarantees results in 60 days. It was entirely focused on avoiding stress and strongly advised against caloric restriction. Something like sleeping is

> It can’t replace a human for support, It doesn't have to. It can replace having no support at all. It would be possible to run a helpdesk for a free product. It might suck but it could be great if you are stuck. Support call cente

We do still have the concept of people taking to much while people also greatly admire the vampires. It seems pretty obvious a culture could develop all over the spectrum.

I wonder what the impact will be when replicating the same thing becomes machine readable with near 100% accuracy.

Long ago I coin robotmancipation as a joke but also as a thought experiment. My conclusion is that we have so much mirroring behaviour that we should be very afraid. Someone long ago said the way we treat animals today will be the way we tr

To state the obvious in case it wasn't: A trick question can be both a joke and a rhethorical question.

It needs a bit more reasoning as it does find the answer but doesn't notice it found it. The answer is: A trick question.

Send in the LLMs! Jokes aside, I'm not very impressed with this single color font art. Maybe in 30 years we will have 16 color fonts? The color fonts currently work in Firefox and Edge, Safari support SBIX, Chrome on Android has CBDT I

The most capitalist thing to do here is to have the parties gathered in an app on the device and have the companies bid on the user and have the user pick their prefernce. That way the user can enjoy many dialogs and be paid for their time.

Maybe we have to try harder? My first thought was db queries pointing at html templates and/or css selectors where to put the output. That you have to pick working commands could be useful there.

One could make a hardware simulator and code in low level components. For some applications it would make things a lot easier, everything else would be hard. It seems fun to be able to build the physical app.

Humans can figure out a lot given enough time. While all the hype for us is finance, management, machines, electronics and software etc it is not unthinkable a previous civilization went all in on soil. Terra Preta seems to be quite sophist
