Perhaps less comfortable with more physical movement. Humans didn't evolve with air conditioning and couches.

I can do both I think. Unless doing specific life extending activities like exercising is considering not living a full life. I wonder if exercising for a minute can extend your life by 1 minute or if it's mostly a waste of time in tha

This is what I get when trying it on any terminal on Windows.

True, but I'd prefer to die as slowly as possible.

Dying slowly vs dying quickly. As a society we seem fine with letting people destroy their health in any number of ways from smoking to eating a pound of sugar a day, but we will go to great lengths to prevent people from committing suicide

I think the idea is that the entire gradient is sentient to varying degrees. Two neurons interacting could be sentient, but is not enough to us as humans to have any meaningful interaction with. A cpu with two gates is way less useful than

From my time reading and watching science fiction I've come to the belief that sentience is not binary. It's not a toggle that is either true or false. It seems like a fuzzy gradient with no definite threshold for becoming sentien

Sounds like there is a lot of overlap between burnout and depression.

Firefox should shut themselves down so Google can be sued.

How can that be possible? What if I made the worlds worst DRM and then sued everyone who bypassed it? How can bypassing DRM even be illegal? If someone owns their hardware then you can do any hardware or software modifications you want to i

I don't think it comes down to a singular person, but I'm pretty sure it is about passion. Modern large game studios have removed all the passion and turned game development into an assembly line of 100s or more people working on

I wonder if his actions managed to change the outcome of any election.

Isn't the point of their tactic that they are going to consider it you quitting if you don't show up to work in person? So it will be voluntarily quitting whether you voluntarily quit or not. Still, probably better to force them t

It would be nice if we could limit new standards to once every 5-10 years. At which time people can submit new ideas for standardization approval and then the best one gets picked and everyone is required to switch. Backwards compatibility

Perhaps it should be more obvious to everyone if the particular form of communication you are using is meant to be synchronous or asynchronous. Talking on the phone is clearly synchronous and sending emails is clearly asynchronous. However

I'm not really an advocate of proof of work crypto like bitcoin. Proof of stake crypto like Algorand have no environmental damage. There are however way more companies that have caused and will continue to cause environmental damage th

Over the long run dividends would be a very small percentage of the added value by new investment money coming in and increasing the share price.

Both might be considered morally wrong, but only one seems illegal.

That's also how the stock market works. For someone to win someone else has to lose.

It seems like there should be some kind of penalty for filing troll patents if they can be invalidated like that.

They would have to end this concept of no child left behind. Also such a meritocracy system would likely be perceived as racist as the students with more time and financial support become more likely to succeed.

This is what I'd personally like to see. Anything not related to education should not be part of the education system. If some third party wants to establish various sport systems then that's fine. There are so many non-traditiona

Edible tape? There are so many pre-existing foods that get sticky when wet. Like seaweed wrap.

The Nexus 5X was the perfect size phone in my opinion. I'm content with the Pixel 4a at the moment, but it is clearly too tall to use with one hand for me. I have to shimmy it up and down to reach the top and bottom. Which I suspect is

Yea, but to me it sounds like the same problem as a bank run. If everyone tried to retrieve their money from the bank at the same time they wouldn't have enough money.
