My experience is that these kind of people (grew up in houses with tv on the background 24/7) have difficulty doing meaningful in depth work. They can "block it out", but only for doing simple tasks, like chatting to someone.

Here's a wild guess... Is it possible that American companies are setting up in Canada just so they can hire globally? Because surely there aren't mostly Canadian tech companies, right?

> should the military budget be scaled back This is such a complicated topic as to make this question meaningless without additional context. I see the fact it even gives an answer as a weakness of chatgpt.

You missed my point. I don't disagree that as long as you're good at hammering, it doesn't matter if you learned it by hammering on the job or because you love hammering so much that you kept doing it by yourself. My point wa

To me this is symptomatic of a poorly functioning capitalist system. In contrast, a well functioning capitalist system would rewards the smartest, most capable, hardest working people. So if school makes you more intelligent but the system

Ok cool so just plot 2 prices as a function of time. You're the one who brought up "complicated proofs", but doesn't apply here.

Unintentionally, this exemplifies why Russia will always be a second-rate power. For it's internal politicking it has to reference art (Tolkien) from the English speaking world. This is a self-own.

I think everyone here would love to learn more. And I don't mean "make your data a queriable database". I mean just write a couple of SQL queries the result of which illustrate your claim, and share it here on HN.
