The adjective "extreme" is being thrown around a little readily these days. I would save it for those who carry out organized, intentionally violent attacks to achieve their goals, and not those who read pro life news.

I find this hard to believe. I remember mowing the lawn for my parents, powering my ridealong lawn mower with a few gallons of gas for an hour or two (or maybe 30 minutes, I don't remember how long it took me). My car, at best, would d

does anyone in fusion field know what type of reactor Helion is trying to make? I did a brief stint in fusion research but the architecture they are trying to make work is unfamiliar to me.

Doesn't "thanks" imply a request was made, and "best" imply the end of a conversation? Did they just analyze a bunch of emails blind?

>Yes, thermodynamics says that all structures will eventually decay down to a small set consistent with max entropy. But what about long before then? Thermodynamics says that all structures will eventually evolve towards a massive set

"We do not allow our children to have their own computers to prevent the risk of them being radicalized by alt-right websites" This is a sign of mental illness in parents. Shocking. I haven't seen the equivalent of since Chri

Consensus is self-reinforcing, by the rejection of papers that contradict dogmas. It's also relatively rare to go into "Climate Science" as a field. I would expect no more than 1 in 20 physicists becomes a "climate physi

"Functional Algorithms" is a strange topic for me since algorithms seem very imperative, compared to the declarative nature of FP.

What about competence + relationship + hard work? Establishing relationships can be a part of work, and also hard work can be relationship building with a boss, who can then promote you... However, I share your aversion to being "a sla

Well really the hypotheses are "A causes B" and "not A causes B" which does actually leave a third case "A and B are independent".

I don't really think it's appropriate to accuse the Fed of "wallowing in apprehension". The Federal reserve is an incredibly powerful institution and missteps are extremely consequential.
