It has to do with how we carry words from Chinese to English. ``Is Daoism the same as Taoism? Traditionally, yes. The difference in spelling is a problem of transliteration from Chinese to English, where the Chinese pronunciation is somewhe

As a non-unitedstatian, the entirety of reddit seems super right wing to me. You deserve free universal medical care.

I see what you mean, but I wasn't referring to Space X accomplishments but its ambitions. The "we can probably land rockets and reuse them" is what it delivered so far, the claimed ambitions (laughable or not) are about makin

Only by reading the plan, he reminds me of an early Elon Musk. It has the first Paypal then Space X vibe. I wonder how many other people have similar dreams, but can't deliver cause their parents aren't rich. Edit: added middle se

> Good Food Institute is estimating that about 10% of global meat consumption could be switched over to cultivated meat around 2030. While 10% is low 10% in the next 8 years seems very impressive to me. Do you have a link to the report?

Thinking about it, a lot of people stopped smoking right when smartphones became a thing. Smoking was not just about the smoke, but about the social circle it created. I wonder how deep the analogy goes.

It says that groups with the phone in their pocket focused better than those with phone face down on the table. Having something that can not be lost, forgotten or misplaced, in a place you are not used too have it could reduce focus too. M

Very interesting. Will these incentives create "100 millionaire" clubs? If a person knows he will have 110 millons, and know he will be tax 90% on the last 10 he can choose between a million for himself or 10 million for a person

Thanks corrected. While we are at it. Is it "make the following experiment" or "do the following experiment" ?

That is my question too. Is it a fancier autocomplete? Or does it reason about code?
