Yes at all. There's something unnerving about the way the remain side of the debate all engage in this mafia boss style of low key gas lighting. Let's just not acknowledge the fact that you cannot merely just have have certain thi

It wasn't some test of the unknown. He knew the emperor had no clothes and set out to prove it. The people who are pleased also know the emperor had no clothes and of course would have been disappointed if the fields were some how impe

I'm not really sure why job creation is the appropriate moral metric. At the end of the day people who get wealthy generally are 'leveraging' (to be polite) the work of others. i.e. They are taking the profit from the work of

It really never occurred to me to try that for sharing code as opposed to just having multiple of the same sprite (bullets, enemies and the like). Still it's not hugely satisfactory because it implies a single common sprite, loss of th

You can't have shared code between sprites (IIUC), so the only sharing is via copy paste, which is unmanageable.

Not a financial expert, but is that really such a difference, and is that what liquidity really means? At the end of the day most short term debt can be converted into longer term debt possibly with some associated cost.

Really? This doesn't stand up as a comparison. In so far as there are shitty unwarranted consequences for unwanted actions in the west it is similar, but that is human nature (and possibly even wider than that). The difference is that

Agree with the sentiment, but was there ever a push for decentralisation? Seems to me that the original decentralisation of the internet was circumstantial. It was due to the technology of the time (limited resources + aarpanet nuclear stri

Sure but the Flynn effect is just something measured and could well just be a 'low hanging fruit' environmental gains that will/already have run out.

It's teasing us. What is the refutation?

Or maybe other people these days don't understand when you don't actually need a computer, something which he is clearly an expert in!

You should consider revising your opinions and not making unwarranted assumptions. Or at the very least being open to the idea that it is because they are in fact not (statistically) equal in innate ability at the sport. It is certainly, pr

So do native Europeans have a cause for complaint? Not sure about the absolutenesd and consistency of your moral reasoning.

Indeed. Choose away. Of course in the end you choose the one with functioning plumbing.

Yes, but when did professionalism become a requirement for open source software?

This contradicts (correctly) the supposed proof that you cannot beat the market on average (since the index funds are the average). Clearly the index funds must be slower to the punch in some sense and thereby lose out to active investors.

He is not a Nazi because he fought against them, but someone who had the same views as him today simply would be labelled a Nazi (or at least Nazi sympathizer) by many in the current environment. Strange times.

Polls consistently show that Britain is one of the most tolerant countries in europe (debatable wether that is a good thing if it leads to intolerance in the long run ...) in any case I would suggest it is more likely the common language ma

My point was that getting rid of some of the terrible leaders did not solve any problems, indeed made things worse by most measures. Tribalism and perhaps worse - the rule of violence leads to bad leaders. I imagine even good people would h

No doubt there are terrible leaders, but experience in the middle east has shown it's no just terrible leaders standing in the way of prosperity.

That your plans could lead to the deaths of millions perhaps? i.e. You're really some kind of crypto-authoritarian, or if not a useful idiot to the authoritarians that will emerge.

This is something which always gets me. So it is widely accepted that there is no/negligible genetic difference, but there are cultural differences at least when it comes to prosperity. However it is also the case that cultures are ext

We don't have "meritocracy" already, so this isn't a useful objection. Groan. Well it's all degrees, and for the purposes of this discussion, the reason fertile women are discriminated against is because of lost p

Then you'd just be discriminating against the youngish, the married and a bunch of other factors. I just think these kind of answers are the first logical steps in trying to address the problem. With more thought and experience people

Rather than merely downvoting perhaps people can actually try to argue the point and answer the difficult questions. What are the unintended consequences of this kind of legislation? Should the domain of women just be in big companies and g
