Why does the USA, The Land of the Free and The Land of Opportunity, have so much bureaucracy? Look, I know fire codes are important, and you don't want a building to crumble in around you, but... Seems the building codes in the US are

Yes, these companies and contractors have already spent a ton of extra money panic-buying lumber at a highly elevated price due to the shortage. Many of them probably didn't even have a choice but to buy in order for their building con

I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I already passed the Voight-Kampff test. Didn't even need to fire my gun! :) As for GPT-3, well, it needs real input—like the above—to generate its contents. Here's a crude fore-runner taking

The imperfections serve as a kind of verfremdungseffekt, making the viewer aware that he's looking at a photograph, rather than at a person. As such René Magritte comes to mind. It is fascinating that he made his own camera, though. Th

I first discovered Croatia when it was called Yugoslavia. Yes, it's an extremely beautiful country. But the area also has systemic problems that to me seems to be political in nature. Well, perhaps not all. Some of it is also simply ec

I have a feeling that learning a text-based tool like this, will give you greater control and flexibility over your work than NoteScore or Sibelius. Anyone tried both?

I've never had a bullshit job, but I have had a lot of rather pointless meetings through my career... If you do take a bs job, isn't that exactly to pass the time while you make money? Or are there also bs demands put on you tha

Part of the primary school curriculum here in Norway is how to be critical of source material, no matter where it comes from. We call it “source criticism.” Summed up, it's about how trustworthy a source is, what method was used to o

It can get pretty hot in the summers, but I noticed that this is far less of a problem in brick buildings, and especially if they're built right. I think far more emphasis can be put on which materials to use, strategic placement of wi

Plastic straws were never a trash problem in Norway, where I live. Yet restrictions and incentives were still implemented. It's viewed by most people as a rather hypocritical and annoying token move, leading to lower enjoyment of life

The emphasis many countries take is to focus on car owners and drivers by taxing private commuters to death, with dubious environmental gains outside of increasing state income. Meanwhile one cargo ship or cruise liner arguably pollutes wa

Don't lower diesel and gasoline emissions matter at all?

Tire wear is a matter of friction. Higher weight, higher friction, thus more wear. In this isolated instance, electrical cars are likely to be worse off than regular cars due to generally higher weight. Perhaps this is offset by regenerativ

The social gestures of Bill Gates is that of hugging himself, which shows that the question made him visibly uncomfortable. The way he speaks, with his tongue curling into itself, also reveals clear discomfort. I really don't like the
