Wish I could help you but I don't remember where I put it.

So I overestimated a few hundred, and it's actually a few dozens.

The world's poorest man probably has tens millions of peers within an order of magnitude of "poorness". The world's richest man has at most a few hundred.

> And guess what's happened with insurance? Death panels! The insurance death panels already existed at the time. It didn't even happen after. That's what made the whole thing so ridiculous in the first place.

Yeah. You have to be so regimented for calorie counting to work "as counted". Weighing food, and being selective about what I eat, on top, really helps.

Does that - turn into whackamole every year? - expose someone to "preexisting conditions aren't covered" issues?

Protesting, sure, although it's pretty obvious protesting does little in the US (and there's no "right way" to, either). Pulling their kids out of school? Quitting their teaching jobs? I'd say not so much. Strikes a

The best example of this is all the "ghost hunter" shows that were (are?) popular. If you listen to static looking for something to hear, you're gonna find something. If you see a heat pattern left by someone leaning on a loc

I think a very large portion of the 99% aren't complacent so much as they are not realistically able to opt out.

I feel like, at higher latitudes, it should matter less? Whether sunrise is at 3am or 4am, you still basically need to have a way to sleep with unreasonable amounts of sunlight (eg 18-20 hour days). At lower latitudes, summer time makes mor

Not OP but my dad drove a CX for a while, but the real treat was our friend's DS.

Yeah. I guess it's just a question of where you draw the line between a scam and a customer just making a bad choice.

I agree on the state of things but I still think that's just my problem. Sometimes I read reviews for a restaurant, go, and come out thinking the other reviewers and I have a totally different take on things. It happens. Same goes for

I think people already just don't want their screen recorded "24/7" regardless of Microsoft, but then when you add Microsoft into the mix, and potentially sending stuff off-host for AI etc, it gets worse? For me, regardl

Good points. :) Thank you.

A self-prompting loop still seems artificial to me. It only exists because you force it to externally.

Are you missing a "not" in your second paragraph? Anyway, even though I wish it were different, I agree. I wish there were better socializing options but adoption isn't good enough (eg I have 1 friend I could use it with).

One of the "barriers" to me is that (AFAIK) an LLM/agent/whatever doesn't operate without you hitting the equivalent of an on switch. It does not think idle thoughts while it's not being asked questions. It&#x2

I don't know where the divide comes from (cultural, generational, social class, or something else) but the idea of thinking "I want to get my money back" for something like a book, music, or a video game is strange to me. Som

Did you do self-tests? I've been exposed three times (twice by my SO) and only tested positive once, but I had symptoms both other times as well. All my tests for those were done at home and I wouldn't take "I did it wrong&qu

Yep, an early block can definitely leave people stuck for a while. Although at this point, I think something that's missing from all of these discussions (spawned from whatever ancestor comment in this thread) is what the actual polici

Getting more data from people actively using maps makes sense. Where I live, between updates I see on location tracking (when not actively using maps), you can even walk different routes from one point to another. That's why I've

Agreed on c- . The rest seems a bit strident. Stuff happens. I wouldn't exactly go running to the incident/retro unless there was repeated pattern.

The advice isn't "don't cooperate", it's "don't cooperate without a lawyer present", and even if the lawyer tells you to answer the question, you're probably still better off with the lawyer pres

Sounds pretty exciting to me.
