In some areas, like trading and even chess, there is an element of randomness that makes it impossible to isolate pure skill. Maybe in some kinds of racing, either in cars, bicycles or on foot (or the million other kinds like kayaking etc),

I feel obliged to point out that when people try and equate behavior that is completely within the bounds of what society considers normal (being gay) with what can be a crippling and life affecting condition, it does nobody a service. Anym

Disguised ad. This guy is a social media "influencer".

I like this analogy a lot. Nature has a special place for us so conservation is (mostly) obvious, including ideas like negative externalities. But I agree with you that we should be thinking of the online world in the same way, even if its

A bigger challenge is that arguments on issues are often actually a proxy for some deeper cause: climate change debates ostensibly are about science, but seem mostly about whether we redistribute wealth or exercise control over people. Same

I'm easily distracted so getting a message breaks my focus anyway. If that's going to happen, I'd rather it happen in one call than in a prolonged back and forth by chat, and then eventually a call. If I really need to focus

Haha I can understand why that bothers you of course, but I find it amusing that I feel exactly the opposite way. I would usually much prefer that someone try phoning me or (of initiating a call on slack or zoom) that go through the "h

I'm concerned about the idea of open source turning into teaser content, the main goal of which is to get people to pay to unlock "sponsors only" content.

I look at this whole idea another way: if your results are so fragile that they need a docker container (with all the caveats others are mentioning about versions etc), it's not really "reproducible" just because someone can

I have a dual boot machine with windows 7 on it. I boot into windows about once a year to try something or another. The machine is from 2013 and was pretty good back then, Latitude laptop with a Core i5 and 8GB ram. I still use it regularly

> Modern economics encourages waste Correct in one sense, but assumes we know in advance what will be waste and what won't be. Central planning has shown itself to be far less effective, both in overall quality of life and in meetin

Imagine another teacher somewhere that does not believe in vaccination is asking how they can convince their students to not get vaccinated. Would that be ok too? Maybe stick with your employer's policy and curriculum guidance and not

This is interesting to hear. I have the opposite experience, I'm generally an anxious person and feel stressed going into meetings, especially with groups of new people. I've found that I'm much more relaxed on zoom calls tha

Interesting - if you had a parsing language defined, you could combine raw data with transformations, e.g. float_name 5.75 DUP MUL float so the transformed data gets loaded in. Could be cool for arrays or more complex data where you want to

Could you elaborate a bit? Would the file be a set of instructions that generates the data (this is how postscript works), or something else?

Right, it's censorship, it's not first amendment limitation of free speech, I think that is where the semantics come in.

Your argument boils down to "I agree with one cause and reject a caricature of the other, so the first should be allowed". Not agreeing with something is not a reason to ban it.

Maybe an unpopular opinion here but I think people should have a platform where they can safely coordinate activities that those in power don't agree with. Limiting peoples ability to organize is a decent into a police state IMO. Grant

A lot of pedants are telling you it's not censorship and they are technically correct, these private platforms are within their rights to decide how they are used. And many people have raised concerns before about what it means that we
