Russia was hardly ever saturated and is now aging and depopulating. However false or not false it may be it clearly doesn't apply here.

That doesn't at all square with the actual data we have though. Why look at a "controlled experiment" instead of a wealth of real-life data?

And why exactly would someone go to all this trouble instead of just throttling that region of space? Surely you don't mean to say it would all run on a single chip? And if this was a simulation there'd presumably be a purpose to

But their very point was that the simulation wouldn't have to compute every single individual particle, only the "interesting" ones. The rest would be approximated to whatever level required. I basically agree with you but I

Uh why would it be on there? It doesn't have ads, and no user generated content. Boundlessly maximizing individual engagement is hardly in their interest, whereas with the ones on the list it's literally the entire business plan.

It's just that I remember a nice brisk 9k walk in hills which took 90mins. In 35c heat, with malaria. Main point here is I wouldn't describe myself as anywhere near fit. And "most people" is not a healthy benchmark, sadl

For what it's worth I generally don't work laying down, am also around 6ft, weigh a lot less and would categorize your 10k pace as a brisk walk. Set some goals and you'll be below 100kg and 60min in no time.

You can use a credit card as a loan card, sure, by taking cash out an ATM or not paying your entire balance at the end of the month. And yes, loads of people obviously do that, and that's a trick. But can you really say it's a sle

Yup. As greek to me as the paper is at least it makes very clear what it sets out to achieve and why (and when) it differs. I suppose it's implicit but I feel article really ought to explain that in the demonstrated case of heavy bias,

No. Credit, as in implied future payment, literally does mean loan, and another meaning of the word (opposite of debit) is also what happens when you use a credit card - an intermediate credits the merchant account so you don't need a

Then again how does this differ from the mostly incremental updates 2 through 9? They had a naming strategy, changed it, and now seemingly reverted to the old one. I don't understand your reasoning.

Your points are all well and good, but given HK has never been a proper democracy it's hardly an appropriate example. This mixup, willful or not, makes your post come off really weird in my eyes.

The word mostly retains its historical (descriptive), not modern (pejorative) connotations when used in the context of history.
