How many judges are able to make deep technical adjudications about which use of DNS is sufficient to be a title I or title II carrier?

I think the notion that these jobs are useless is wrong. Most of the categories in bullshit jobs are just straight up not bullshit. Most jobs are useful. Things like lawyers, secretaries, corporate compliance officers generally provide valu

Do you think companies care enough about some nebulous notion of control that they’re willing to spend massive amounts of money?

I’m confused what point you’re making here. Is it that some (non office) jobs require you to be there?

I don’t understand why you separate groups A and B. The comment said that it’s the same orgs and agencies doing both things.

If you would rather commute than work, sure. I don’t like driving that much though.

> the point of the job ends up being to keep people employed and pay taxes I don’t think this thesis holds any water. Companies don’t care about keeping people employed and paying taxes on such a micro scale that they’re willing to bite

I think point particles are different because there are infinitely many of them. They are more continuous than cards. This means shaking isn’t necessarily discontinuous even if two particles that were “right next to each other” wind up far

I used to order Chinese take out to watch every new episode of Burn Notice. I’m not concerned about companies knowing this and using it “against me” in targeted advertising.

I don’t think that analogy works because an idealized fluid is point particles, but an idealized deck of cards isn’t.

by l33t233372 3y ago
It’s difficult to discuss this physical example because particles are discrete. In an ideal system with points instead of particles, shaking would be continuous.

Shaking a container is a good example I think, assuming the glass is convex. Shaking has to be continuous, the particles move quickly and erratically, but they trace continuous paths.

That’s implementation details, in my opinion. I reach into my pocket and talk to AI.

I don’t understand how superconductors will make phones into supercomputers. There is a still the limitation of the number of transistors in a given volume. Also, how does this help fusion become possible?

by l33t233372 3y ago
Asking the AI in my pocket what the new superconductor technology can do for society. We’re kinda in the future, and that’s neat.

Printf style debugging is very nice. I like it more than actually using the debugger in a lot of cases.

I think the point is to just spread knowledge, in principle at least.

People say that, but it’s not like they have a flashing light that says “TIMMY IS POOR AND THIS LUNCH IS FREE,” they just punch their code or swipe their card or whatever and it rings up as free.

I agree exactly. And what about people who’s families moved here in the last 140 years. They surely didn’t own slaves. And who even gets reparations? If someone’s great great great grandmother was a black slave but every other relative was

> the devastating effects of the Atlantic slave trade, which significantly hindered their development It was my understanding that most of the slaves traded were already slaves, so it wasn’t just plundering the continent to kidnap people
