This is your opinion. And people disagree with you. Presenting opinion as objective facts is counterproductive, no matter how strongly you believe something and think it is just. I’m not sure what your approach is to just say it’s a fact an

Is there some other market system that produced better music? This one has its flaws but it seems to be optimizing for a great variety.

I think it’s more of a function of mental leisure time. People like worrying about these things and wrapping up simple transactions (“I’d like to stream music this month for $10”) into some moral and ethical quandary as if they can resolve

I guess having your whole economy pretty wealthy based on fossil fuels and relying on US innovation in developing EV infrastructure helps. This kind of reminds me of those “I’m debt free and have $500k savings at 25” type posts where the se

That’s not how DoJ defines market. The relevant market isn’t the specific Apple device users, but all users and all their competing devices. This is typically how US antitrust law works as it is based on consumer harm. And that’s broad, not

You can hammer in a nail with a screwdriver. They’re both tools. But I’m stupid and/or deluded if I’m hammering in nails all day with a screwdriver. It’s useful to use the right tool for the right job. Tinder is designed for short term

I don’t think I’ve said my definition of “free,” but restricting who can distribute my software seems pretty non-free to me. I don’t think there’s a true, single definition, but I think maybe the closest to that would be https://

“Free” means something. If you want to stop people distributing your software through a site that has ads, then it’s not “free.” “Open source” means something too. The control people have is in using shared definitions. Language is malleabl

Congrats. It does happen but it’s the outlier. People also hookup on eharmony. But the purpose of Tinder is to find short term or one time hookups. And that’s perfectly ok. But doing studies about long term relationships on Tinder seems odd

> Being able to signal "I'm playing the long game" is attractive all around. I think it’s also a valuable action, not just signal. As important decisions should take time to make.

Being poor and active. I think the whole “high sugar/calorie food is prevalent and cheap” is a symptom of relatively wealthy counties that have leisure time. I feel like if bad food wasn’t so cheap and we worked 7 days a week, that wou

Speak for yourself. I think there’s strong correlation between people who have deadlift home gyms and good health. So therefore, the average person should have this setup :) All joking aside, it’s pretty easy to have a kettlebell or some ot

I think the point is that this isn’t an extreme edge case and that this research is still useful, even if it isn’t perfect. So the ask for superior research is valid since this is useful.

I find that exercise increases my hunger. I exercise quite a bit (5-8 hours per week) and it makes me eat more, not less. And I find that I need to channel this into food that meets my macros rather than junk, but if I don’t plan, I’ll end

It’s funny being the parent of teenagers and witnessing this behavior. It’s frequently frustrating and hurtful so it helps to realize that it’s just part of life and not something truly directed at me. It’s the simple things like ape genes,

These aren’t random factors though, they are all correlated when higher risk of default. Would you like the models to ignore these predictors of financial strength? Because, you don’t like it?

It seems like the main defense to this is to not have cash. We all seem smart until we’re unreasonable. I don’t expect I’m stupid, but if someone threatens my kid, I probably get real dumb. But if I don’t have cash, I don’t have cash. So th

I can’t get a modal popup when someone messages me directly on teams. I have to check the list of chats for if someone has messaged me. That’s stupid and a flaw in teams. It’s a bad messaging app. It’s pretty good with meetings though.

Sadly, that’s not really helpful as only US dating sites are relevant for me.

I have never used a government web site that was better than a marginal ad driven site. I can barely pay my trash bill and can’t imagine a dating app run by any aspect of US federal, state, or local government.
