As an American, is that the generally-accepted viewpoint now? That Brexit was a mistake? If so, do people feel like it was an honest mistake, or do people generally believe that the politicians and businesspeople who supported it were eithe

Yeah, sorry, I didn’t mean to necessarily single you out. I just hear the argument that the constitution gives both illegal and legal residents that right and conservatives simply respond that illegals shouldn’t have rights and that’s that.

I wish people would stop trying to argue that the constitution affords due process to both legal and illegal residents like you are doing here. It does , but that’s missing the forest for the trees. If all the government has to do is say “

Many of the people currently being stripped of their rights and deported are documented, legal visa and green card holders or documented and legal asylum seekers. Even illegal immigrants need to be deported through due process. That’s the

Which people in the woke movement had power, and what were some of the woke policies that they enacted? Every time I go down this line, it’s all vague boogeymen or claims of events that don’t hold up to scrutiny.

Hmm… where have I seen this strategy play out in recent memory?

Do you have a link to where I could learn more about this?

It’s less about actions we could take and more about knowing we don’t have to worry about colliding with a star for the moment.

by stouset 2y ago
I think the concern is that if a star was headed in our direction we’d see it coming. We don’t see one, so we know there is no anticipated threat. A small, lone black hole could be on an intersecting trajectory with us within a few years an

If we're going out of our way to eliminate things that cause zero perceptual experience I don't see why you would exclude them.

by stouset 2y ago
I think the point is that even saying the "experience" of being free of RF implies a perception which does not exist. Plus it's well-known that you don't really get the full experience of this unless you manage to shie

This is an observed change of going from 1 core at 100% to 64 cores at 100%. This is establishing a lower bound, assuming there is no wasted work or contention for shared resources.

The entire point of cryptocurrency contracts is supposedly that “code is law”. Running to the courts as soon as someone does something you didn’t intend only highlights that people don’t actually believe this.

This is ridiculous. The standard isn’t “are they unbiased” because it is utterly unachievable. You know this and you cling to it anyway. What matters is whether their bias materially influenced their conclusions . They have provided analys

What, exactly, were you hoping to learn by accusing Airparif and the EU of bias? All this time I’ve been asking questions of you, hoping to learn about your thought process: Who should be performing these measurements? Who should be funding

Your refusal to give any example of any work that meets your threshold only serves to underscore my point.

by stouset 2y ago
Right, right, you never said you disagreed. You’re “just asking questions”. The messenger matters less than the data, the collection methods, and the approach to analysis. Bias can be a reason to more carefully examine a conclusion and th

If you don’t think the current people doing this work or funding it are appropriate, you should be able to give at least a vague idea of an entity you think is better suited for either. The only qualification you managed to put out there

Who, exactly, should be funding air quality measurements within the European Union?
744.
by stouset 2y ago
This isn’t critical thinking. Your complete inability to even vaguely hint or suggest at someone who might be better equipped to either perform this analysis or fund it makes that clear. “Someone without bias” is a cop out. Everyone has bia

Who, exactly, would you like to monitor air quality and who, exactly, do you think should be funding it?

It’s also worth considering that at most you’d be automating 24 jobs.

I’ll play devil’s advocate. Following Ben’s videos and building the 8-bit CPU is the first thing that ever helped me “get” electronics and circuitry. Honestly, way more than half of the fun has been in finding the design flaws and designing

Your boss can know about it, but if their boss wants data on performance you’re back in the same boat. Funny you mention engineers needing to market themselves though. That leads to its own consequences. I’ve been at a place where everyone
