Yeah im sure there are many tribespeople with pillows. It feels wierdly racist that this guy is acting like people in societies like this just live instinctually like gorillas and don't actually have the universal human trait of creati

I dunno man, I have no idea what lance Armstrong did i was just responding to the philosophical point that it is possible to intimidate and manipulate people into giving consent.

Yep, exactly. It was German etc sounds being appreciated by African Americans in Detroit, being mixed with their influences in Chicago, and then travelling back across the Atlantic. Its a transatlantic international group effort and to deny

I beg to differ. Plenty of Berlin techno is a descendant of Detroit techno. The fact that you only mentioned Chicago already shows a lack of understanding. Kraftwerk and the others you mentioned influenced Detroit techno pioneers, Detroit t

Yeah its a bit of dangerous idea to act like its okay to do anything to people if they ostensibly "consent".

I find that I only really feel fully rested after lunch if I get 2-2.5 hours. So, I wish this was normal. When I was doing a coding bootcamp I was doing the most hard mental work of my life. I coded/was in class about 12 hours a day. I

I agree. We really need pop-identity-politics to die. It's like a race to find the most obscure and irrelevant form of oppression made to distract us from actual oppression.

As a fellow lover of fiction, I agree that there is nothing offensive or unimaginative about viewing writing as a way to deeply understand and consolidate your knowledge about technical material. I think writing of any kind is about process

Thanks for answering my questions. Could you explain what you mean by Taleb's books. I don't know who that is and what books you are referring to. I tried to google Taleb but there are a lot of people called that.

I was going to say that but I then remembered all the many many other apps that a lot of other countries used, and therefore I didn't want to act like I wasn't aware of those. For example, WeChat, Line, KakaoTalk, and more. Whatsa

Did you have to brush up on maths to get into AI properly? Theres a short course at a STEM university in AI that an old colleague of mine did. I kept considering it, but it says it requires strong maths skills. I dropped out of maths at 17.

If you think when people use obvious hyperbole they are lying to you, then you are just dimwitted mate. Not my problem. Go back to school.

Yeah i was really enjoying working at this company and making progress at my pace, as a smart person but a non-engineering-wizz. I was feeling optimistic and letting go of the pressure to get into at top tech company. This was allowing me t

As a single 25 year old (UK), I don't save much, I don't have a car, I have rent but no mortgage, no dependants. I don't feel very rich, but I do go on two holidays a year. Though does it even count if I crash on people'

This is a great rebuke when someone tries to skirt around your point when you use hyperbole. Will be keeping this one.

Would you consider adding features for countries/currencies outside of the US/dollar? And/or do you have a github repo that I could PR against to add it if you'd prefer.

Glad to hear about an AI made just to help you learn things that can be a 100% positive tool for kids. I'm sort of interested in using it myself to try and learn some maths subjects

Yeah, most therapists have pissed me off because its infuriating having to teach a so called expert how to understand you at a premium price. I find it ludicrous that they'd be able to tell me anything about myself that I don't kn

How do you overcome this? I've avoided things due to emotional discomfort my whole life and I don't think I can ever do better at this point. I find that it requires conscious effort to learn to do things that are required as stan
