Framing people as “false info traffickers” sort of reveals to me that these researchers sort of do believe only one viewpoint should be allowed? They talk like military censors do during wartime, or political commissars.

When I read through all the subjective moral judgements I simply find that censoring users that promote a URL/person/view reduces its popularity.

The national do not call list isn’t effective so I can’t advocate for another one as a solution UNTIL the first implementation is fixed.

Tons of gamers are on 8gb because of mobile GPUs and becuase the only affordable 12gb GPU Nvidia has ever released is the 3060 which is a desktop GPU. I don’t honestly expect 12gb+ to become mainstream until 6000 series.

I honestly think that given the demands of 4K video specifically using potentially a few gigs of memory just for decoding, 8gb made a world of sense, but little has come out since that really needs all that much memory for the average perso

Yeah I truly don't see how this is all that ambiguous of a violation of privacy.

I don't see how proving that sleep correlates with wealth disproves that those things work whatsoever, because those things are expensive.

That was one of the few things Alex Jones said that he was correct about.

Awareness, transmission, what precisely is the difference? Sounds to me like mental health awareness campaigns are just another transmission vector. Do we have any reason to believe that “mental health awareness” doesn’t CAUSE mental illne

There is a rather strong correlation between the type of kid who would most benefit from this device, and the type of kid who is most likely to irresponsibly lose a phone. I'm imagining a child with ADHD who compulsively elopes.

The value and battery life aren’t there are the biggest issues. Not kidding when I say I think the device needs to double that runtime minimum.

It’s not strapped to their wrist so it’s easier to lose for starters.

I was about 3 years ahead of my peers in spatial reasoning and behind them socially. When I was a kid leaving me alone meant I was likely to wander long distances end up in a pool and drown. If anything I see this as enabling parents to ke

Generally, when sentiment doesn’t match the statistics, it indicates that you’re gathering the data wrong more than it indicates mass public hysteria. Not that mass public hysteria does not happen. They’re measuring economic productivity b

I recall think the very time the lockdowns started “this won’t just be 2 weeks, I don’t know if this is even justified or just an example of a bias towards looking like one is doing something” straight away. That was how things started. W

>It seems clear that Fauci wasn’t targeted because he was “a scientist”, but because he was a federal official who set political policy. I don’t see that as clear at all given the open contempt for “experts” and scientists being a promin

I'm well aware of this and in those sorts of jobs, most of the work isn't programming, it's sitting in meetings and communicating. While AI might help with this simply by shrinking the amount of people needed to do a job, I&

My impression is that AI has done more for the accessibility of coding than the efficiency of coding. Sure, it's much more possible for bob from accounting to throw together some trivial python script than it was a few years ago, but i

They must have quite the sparkling crystal ball at BP headquarters. What a specific estimate, not even a range.

On a budget, the point of leafy greens should strictly to get an appropriate amount of micronutrients and fibre. In terms of calories/$ they're godawful unless you douse them in oil.

Doesn't scale is a huge issue. Lack of evidence that it works is another - and anything remotely evidence based is given by somebody like a psychologist and is very expensive.

Defined benefit pensions themselves are set to implode once population growth stops - they are a Ponzi scheme that will break down within a hundred years resulting in at least a reduction in benefits.

I think it’s very easy to explain. The US are some of the worlds greatest sellers of intellectual property which makes for better business, since you only need to invent something once and then you can sell it over and over. The US would

The thing about building ships is not only does it take forever to build up shipbuilding capacity - it takes forever to build ships. This should be interpreted as emphasizing the strength of the US Navy though, since it would take years and

People often find exercise easier to modify than diet, or even for exercise to make following a healthy diet easier. The process of building muscle can create a caloric deficit.

The Americans had some resources the soviets were in short supply of so their impact was greater than them just contributing 10% of materiel. Also again, Hitler had a lot of resources tied up in the west because of the allies. Germany got
