Not to be rude, but yeah, what else would they mean? Is your peripheral good at picking up anything on the planet since it's always spinning? Everything is always moving relative to something else.

I don't know about that, Skype clogged up with random invitations and messages (when I last used it 6-7 years ago..) about as often as I get spam calls now.

Why is it funny that people understand things in terms of their experience? The original comment about "lossy compression" essentially stated that humans don't have perfect thinking/memory/processing of probabilitie

The only hard rule I'll agree to is no direct threats of violence. Shame storms would be most effectively fought with better education, not moderators. Don't make judgements based on hearsay. Internet moderators don't help wh

And how do you prevent the moderators from being corrupted by any influence and stay perfectly objective? You say every forum needs a moderator, I say every moderator is, or quickly becomes, unacceptably corrupt. Maybe we could come up with

It's doing alright as in not failing, but remains to be seen if any of their paradigms measurably improve anything.

You can replace the battery on them with a screwdriver, hot air, and some bravery to slightly bend the original battery as you rip it out. Then you can remove the adhesive and not have to worry about doing that again, until your next "

I agree, but let's go deeper... I'd wager is there is a way to rank "empathy/kindness" in a more objective way, and that the current social environment is distanced from that objectivity. Now even if we could perfec

Would you say the same for regular physical playtime? Or would you let your kids go outside and play/socialize anytime, as long as they had nothing else of more immediate importance? Why would video games be different?

Panasonic makes a 3400mAh 18650, NCR-18650B, which is very similar in volume and 2.62x higher capacity, ~2.55x higher density than the 1998 17670 cells. Not to mention we also have power density-optimized cells now. High performance DIY dro

I have to say I'm inclined to trust them, because I've had the exact same experiences. Definitely been harassed by moderators before, been let loose when groveling, and been banned for standing up for myself despite being civil. O

I'm not sure this captures the whole problem. Sure, huge sample sizes are great, but look at the current top comment by lisper - we have gained a boatload (that's a scientific term) of insight from single events. LIGO is currently
