So if I build a machine that has as output other machines randomly generated that are not extrapolated from anything I know it wouldn't count because I still "extrapolated from similar information" I already had? Absurd line

I was hoping it to be divided into two bookshelves one for "books read" and much much more importantly one for "books have not read". You don't learn much from what you already know.

It's insane to compare the recent immigration policies of Sweden and Germany to the US. US still has some of the most stringent rules for who can come in regardless of what you hear in the news. Heterogeneity is not a homogenous qualit

Are you assuming as societies get richer and more technologically advanced there is less of a need for labor? Hasn't this myth been busted repeatedly over centuries since the Industrial Revolution?

Cool example, but all r3f is doing here is just providing the threejs camera, controls and the text with emoji, the watch itself is loaded as a .glb file, where I'd assume most people would be interested in learning about.

This is a problem of active vs passive communication. I can think of 100's of other personal behaviors that would be worse or just as bad as being an asshole. Passive aggressive behavior, secretly taking credit for someone's work,

Can you point to what libraries he could have used that would have made it simpler? I doubt anything like would benefit from any type of abstraction that currently exists, unless it was a more interactive application that would incorporate

To be 100% honest I found it very intimidating to even begin reading it. It's such a time sink (no pun intended) and a huge wall of text (with figures and interactivity nonetheless).

Crazy to see this thing with the spring is constantly rotating so furiously all the time all so just that the second hand would move ever so slowly once a second.

It gets boring pretty quickly. I wonder if part of people considered having a high IQ is the ability to persevere through adversity and having grit which really isn't the same as raw intelligence.

Please don't. If you're reading a sentence in a TODO you can decide what it wants you to do, it's bizarre to claim the reader will be less confused if the sentence was merely labeled differently. This reminds of using emojis

ESG browny points is probably a key component of that. It's dangerous to let politicians decide what is considered green. There has to be a quantifiably measurable way the impact on the environment from any single product is judged. If

How many times do we need to learn that absence of evidence is not evidence of absence? Anything new that we consume or use as a tool to consume food with should be regarded as highly safe. Skeptical empiricism is the best way to achieve th

tl;dr? What an unreadable wall of text. There is literally no context provided. What is this supposed to be and why? I'm about 50% positive it's not supposed to be fiction, other than that I'm at a loss.
