Being fundamentally incapable of feeling content, relaxed, and at ease for more than about three seconds is certainly not the most debilitating thing that could happen to you, and it can make you dogged and tireless, but it’s also not the n

It’s more insidious. The condition mucks with your priorities & how you think you should approach problems, so even if you know how to hack yourself to be motivated, will it be for the right things? As far as I can tell, focus and motiv

As much as I would prefer to believe otherwise, the only way to completely eliminate trash is with a gigantic step-function increase in energy usage. Lowering consumption won’t do it alone.

There are many, many… It’s a little puzzling to me still why this is. Physical attraction to almost-adults isn’t some big mystery, but most cp is something else entirely.

This makes no sense to me. Take Los Angeles. Almost everyone has AC. If you can power AC, you can charge an EV, and the loads peak at different times. (AC peaks around 3pm, EV can peak anywhere from 7PM to 5AM depending on programming) Blac

There are 12% more men than women there. This might not sound bad, but remember 37% of people in CA are already married…

Take heart, there are positives. Now that people are paying more attention, all kinds of species are being found in places no-one knew they could be found before.

10% of the US population does not have food security. 25% lives paycheck to paycheck. The simple truth is people don’t have room in their lives to worry about abstract problems that don’t impact them when their basic needs are not met. Just

What kind of scope are we talking about here? Is the L5 charged with "the website should load a bit faster", or "the flagship product is not competitive in the market"? Is the L6 individually grappling with "where w

Also, if you accept the maxim that government gets its power and legitimacy from the consent of the governed (whether voluntary or under threat of violence) it should quickly become apparent how difficult it is to force the matter.

AR exists commercially today in the armed forces. Where do you think sci-fi got it from?

Do we have any indication whether it’s going to be responsive and fast enough for AR in sports? Maybe it’s a solution looking for a problem, but the best use of AR has always seemed to be for activities that require full attention. Flying a

Maybe they are shooting a 5D III instead of a R5, but it’s a once-flagship, not a Rebel. Anyway, I don’t want to over generalize about a profession I’m not in, so I’m stopping at that. The point is how the purchasing decisions differ when t

Pros can, in some cases, get to just buy the good stuff without having to agonize over cost. Pro sports photographers are all shooting the best cameras and lenses; when your income depends on the equipment, it can be self defeating to try t

Resounding agreement. I know kindergartners who can solve “z = x + y, solve for x” forms of problems, but some people call that “algebra”.

The two are probably the opposite sides of the same coin. If it was a prestigious and well paid profession, a career flame-out would not be able to land a job teaching.

Pitched competition between well-matched opponents is the only sure-fire antidote. It either keeps the players perpetually lean, or picks off the ones that ossify. You are simply left no choice other than to play seriously or lose. Tricky t

Ok, you’re probably right as long as your total spend in dollars is the same. If everyone buys laptops half as often but pay twice as much. It’s the spend that funds the advancements.

laptop sales would go down, but that’s precisely what we need. Furthermore, with today’s computing efficiency... Somehow these conversations never seem to talk about how we would not have current levels of compute if everybody kept thei

It was supposed to be a review site that wasn’t trying to sell you books, ergo it would be more even-handed. I often read both Amazon and Goodreads reviews of a book; the perspective is usually different.

I agree intellectually, of course. But there’s something strange about watching my kid grow. They are so much like me. Sometimes it’s as if I can read their mind.
