Cnn is not "the left", and if you identify as being right of it, then it might be time to abandon your claims at political neutrality.

I think that exceptions like tik tok can be safely excised by naming the organization in legislation. No generalizations to draw from legislation that picks on tiktok by name

functional programming has the same use to a programmer as category theory does to a mathematician. It is very good at describing the kind of objects we tend to care about, so it is sensible to consider the converse and ask what kinds of th

More SSRIs and more obesity seems like a pretty good causal mechanism for less sex.

well, for starters, there would have to have been a product that improved at all. Those are already rare enough that I can enumerate them, and in each of those instances involuntary A/B testing can be ruled out for other reasons. When

I think solar cells get pretty hot. They're not very efficient, and they basically have exactly the smallest albedo they can have, so it's a pretty hot thing to make a roof out of. Hopefully they insulate the backsides of them.

I really hope that some justice comes of the situation, but mainly because I want to play the sequel, and I want the original authors to havw made it.

Put a pigeon in a box and hook up a lever to give a reward after a random amount of time has passed, and the pigeon will go absolutely fucking insane trying to figure it out.

This is so wrong in its conclusion, that its hard to know where to start. First, we should be clear that we are talking about involuntary, undisclosed A/B testing. I have not experienced a product become better for the user as a result

I dont know the law here, but it seems you can ask to review your contract, and insist that they include a minimum employment term or guarantee a severance package. They have two ways to say no. They can fire you then, in which case you get

n-hypercubes are very relevant and tangible. they model the state of your computer, for one.

The ability to rotate 45 degrees is equivalent to the construction of a magic state, as you have correctly identified, as it is not a clifford operator, and adding it to your generators gives universal quantum computation on its own. You ha

The biggest obstacle to the realization of quantum computing is not technical, imo, but theoretical. it is well known, but not to laypeople, that a quantum computer is efficiently (quadratic overhead) simulable if it only operates on the ei

the transportation of "heat" is a lot more complicated than the transportation of electricity. I'm not opposed to putting insulated piping everywhere to transport hot water around. It's better than building bridges to no

facebook is bad because it is run with an iron fist by a single person. Eventually Zuckerberg was surrounded by yesmen. This is almost impossible to avoid. With wealth inequality on the rise, the yesman industry has developed a lot of trade

If you want to take a more principled approach to size here, you should use a metric that corresponds to how humans interact with the region. Pick a point to call the center and find all the points with a round trip time less than some numb

if you throw a frog in boiling water it will die immediately. If, instead, you heat up that water slowly, the frog will eventually be unable to maintain homeostasis and will leave, just like you would if it got too hot.
