Looking at this very page! Using the middle mouse button takes me 3 or 4 seconds to move somewhere close to the bottom of the page, much faster and less frustrating to grab and drag the scroll bar. Is there some easier method I'm missi

I don't see how the claim that our universe is simulated is related to metaphysics in the first place.

What I don't think is helpful about this framing is the absolute black and white dichotomy between social control and libertarian individualism, with the latter implied to be praiseworthy. It is a normal part of civilized life to persu

Interesting - I would never knowingly refer to someone by pronouns other than those which correspond with their birth sex, it would violate my conscience to do so. Obviously not a majority position in SV but also not an extremely rare posit

We live in a pluralistic society where there is a great deal of disagreement over the fundamental principles of ethics, justice and rights. This is not an easily soluble situation, it boils down to the is-ought problem. However it seems tha

It appears like they have failed to "raise the bar" in hiring the HR reps/middle managers that the poster interacted with. Not surprising given how fast they've grown, and I'd imagine it is hard to find competent w

That anecdote would not cause me to think less of fecal transplants, but quite the opposite. If there is a causative lever in the microbiome that can affect obesity, one could apply that in reverse, so that if you had the right source, the

Here is a noted leftist writer who is not necessarily arguing for the strongest case of "blank slatism" but is definitely pushing in that direction here, claiming that inherent differences are overemphasized. https://ww

Seems like a weird false dichotomy - even in the olden days of pseudoscience on race, obviously people didn't believe that races couldn't interbreed, as they observed such themselves. The fact remains that if you run PCA and clust

You imply that a parent in a public school has a lot of power to make the school better, which is questionable. If the poor outcomes are due not to a lack of resources but to the preferences of the administrators and teachers, you as a pare

Wait a sec, I'm on your side with the criticism of public education thing but in saying that there are "many better and more interesting books" than Hamlet, what are you criticizing about the play, exactly?
