I think it boils down to the (intellectual) effort needed to synthesise your thoughts, which is a skill that leads to deeper understanding. I'd say ChatGPT is a bit better as a tool than copying from a colleague, just because you still

This system is used every time you need to access the bins (i.e. every other day), since the final location is not as accessible. Trash goes from your kitchen to the bins every other day. Collection happens monthly.

You're correct. Funny enough, this is also obscure knowledge even in e.g Spanish. We use the word salario (from latin salarium) which has the same meaning as in latin: words ending in -ario (lat: -arium) is used to denote association,

You can, but I'm not that anonymous (one can easily find my name by searching for my username, not that there's much interesting to find anyway). More importantly, I wouldn't try to damage a person's reputation if I wasn

Is it also downright stupid that people still use computers with 4 GB of RAM for browsing? Asking for a friend.

The second move is too early. I've played and lost enough games against engines that I would say I've learnt some of the "best moves" (as suggested by the engine, when analysing why I lost) in almost every "usual&qu

My german is not good but most (all?) graphs in the report seem to talk about executives or board members, but excluding CEOs (ohne CEOs). Does the title need an edit?

I'm not saying this is the case, but if Meta is pivoting towards a metaverse future, it would make sense to slim down on the facebook hires whilst keeping some hiring activity on the metaverse front.

What gets me is that over a quarter of that (26% as of 2010 by USDA's estimates) is simply thrown away.

You might be reading too much into it (or not). As a person of color myself, I didn't find the comment as if designed to "gotcha" as much as to clarify from a place of some (imho understandable) frustration. I think nphatack&

A lot of their work is speculative (e.g. it's not clear that the layers of linen were glued, but they went with the assumption). It's interesting that they did not consider one of the most likely combinations: linen layers sewn on

Got you -- :high_five: Although my 2¢: it was a good joke until the second paragraph. That killed it for me – if I'm fed the explanation there's no more fun in "getting" it.

To be fair, I've only lived in the UK for just over a decade. That being said, I do remember BNP and the EDL. Whilst there's an intersection between EDL/BNP and present-day Brexit (i.e. Conservative party) supporters, I would

It might be regional or very US/UK specific. In many parts of the world nationalism is also associated with left wing separatist movements. For example, in Spain we have ETA[1], and in Turkey the PKK[2]. I've never specifically as

How often do you think the entire government of a state should change? Some would argue every 4-5 years makes it impossible to have politicians with long term thinking. Why not have elections once every generation?

Nationalism in the context of SNP (and as a concept in general) simply refers to the desire/belief that the state and nation should be synonymous. The problem is that not everyone's interpretation of national identity is the same,

Smaller is desireable (leaner government, and fairer representation). Poorer is a matter of opinion -- Scotland has a healthy economy.

Scotland can be independent _and_ be in the same economic market (ignoring UK and Spain willing to veto Scotland reentering EU out of spite / own political motives).

I'm nearing 40 and I've seen a bit of both. By far the best teams I've worked in had a healthy mixture of experienced developers and younger ones, although I'd say the main catalyst was a mentoring mentality where everyo

Remote, distributed, asynchronous - they're not all synonymous. Remote is simply that, far apart, so I think it's fair to say that if a company primarily employs people who work from wherever they may be, then I'm fine with t
