I don't trust any "study" on this topic because of how highly politicised it is. Is there anything stopping a person from going to a polling station, writing a fake name, and walking out with zero risk? No? Then you must assu

Hmm. I think the overarching theme of the article is sound. Although somewhat obvious, the idea that individuals who are exceptional in a narrow aspect of intelligence (ie. coding) can carry over their prowess to other fields is valuable to

Having just a couple of drinks is hardly a lack of self control. The whole bottle or 6 pack on the other hand...

Given that there are a ton of people having ~2 drinks a night (big glass of wine, couplabeers, generous pour of whisky), especially in Europe, I can't see 2 drinks a night as someone having a "problem". It's not nearly e

Is there something like this for Rust?

If this happened people would complain that "capitalism" made the internet prohibitively expensive.

Inflation is an increase in the money supply, which is why it's called inflation - the money supply inflates. I know a lot of government economists like to define it as rising prices because then there is no word for increasing the mon

It's relative, you can be low status in one group and high status in another and be the exact same person. Sounds like from the online bullying she suffered from at Yale, she was low status there.

My theory is the devs who claim to be 10x more productive were 0.1x devs in the first place.

No, according to their theory a coin can be valued for its intrinsic properties, not that it will be.

Leaving the gold standard has been so successful, as evidenced by the inflation crisis leading to rising cost of living and housing shortages in every western country.

Hmm, I'm curious how to feel about this. The tone of the article suggests that any sort of cutbacks to international aid is immoral as it contributes to (implied as causing) death. Not only does this suggest any sort of cutbacks to int
