It’s so fascinating to me to see someone formulate a hypothesis based on nothing “I think they did[purposely leak a global pandemic-causing virus]”, and then immediately turn around and relish in China’s failure at the thing you claimed the

That may be an accurate way to read it, but I’d bet that people just casually reading through it will breeze past that comparison and take away “these companies are bigger than most countries”. Which, of course, is a comparison that Jacobin

Do you mean the same code that has its own Wikipedia page where the exact code is written, comments included, and has probably been copy pasted into 100’s of other projects? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_inverse_

They didn’t. There is a small group of people that are always looking for the latest reason to be outraged and to point at any of the big tech companies and go “aha! They are evil!” Copilot’s ai was trained on GitHub projects and so these p

Why are you so hung up on pinning me to some specific predetermined percentage number? All I said was that I WOULD HAVE thought something different (note: not “DID”, aka I didn’t go through some intricate calculation beforehand to determine

“Produced” is a pretty standard way to describe people coming from a university. But I do understand that these universities aren’t just taking in the basic elements that compose a human being and churning out titans of industry… And about

You’ve reversed the question, which would have made me answer something differently. You said “what percentage of US centimillionaires attended these 8 universities”. If THAT was the question I potentially would have guessed lower than 35%.

So? Is this supposed to make me angry or something? That the top 8 universities ordered by wealth creation produced 35% of the wealthiest individuals? Aka, on average each of those universities produced <5% of the wealthiest 9600 people?

The aforementioned company doesn’t appear to have been affected by the shortage like others. In the article it says they sold similar numbers of eggs the previous year. So they benefited from other businesses losing supply.

It’s still not correct tho. Now it says that if demand drops by 10%, that means price goes up. But that should be the opposite of what happens.

Maybe someone can chime in, but aren’t these things normally written by like a pr team or assistant or something anyways? Or does the person in charge actually sit down and write out heartfelt emails like this? Maybe I’m just too jaded…

I’ve been thinking about this and I’d go a step further. I feel that current iterations of digital assistants are too passive. They respond when you directly ask them a specific question. This leaves it up to the user to: 1. Know that an as

I can’t believe I’m about to use this stupid term, but this is such a “woke” take. “My political bubble doesn’t think highly of this job, and so we shouldn’t give anyone the opportunity to do it.” And yes, it IS an opportunity for some peop

I’m not saying this IS happening, but there’s a potential tin-foil hat angle here too. There was quite a bit of job hopping and increased wages going on before 2022. A little RIF by everyone has a chilling effect on people looking to leave.

Headline is confusing. It makes it sound like there will be 18k new layoffs, but this is information that has been public since November and the cuts happened two days ago. (Or at least the bulk of them did)

I would go even further tbh. Solar panels on the roof isn’t something that people want to hide. Nobody wants to admit it but my guess is the majority of people that get solar panels want to show them off, not hide them. Edit: and that’s not
