swznd: this is from the page you linked https://i.imgur.com/JgN8o3m.png am I reading this wrong?

not sure why I'm getting downvoted, I clicked around and found a ryzen that benchmarked at 7.5k...didn't go through even half the benchmarks though

by toolz 6y ago
how can you tell it's only 6k for the ryzen 4750U on the GB5 tests? there's so many pages and pages of tests I can't sift through all of that to confirm

is a higher score worse? If not it's a sweep in favor of ryzen https://i.imgur.com/cwpebHk.png

Communication is far less flakey when the default is a charitable interpretation. As for your other points, I highly doubt such a simple comment intended to touch on the complexities of what it means to be alive - any interpretation otherwi

I believe it would be on you to interpret it more charitably. I'm unsure how you've found a way to take offense with words that aren't readily associated with malice.

conspiracy theory? As I understand it this is merely measuring data and comparing it to previous measurements. Either the data is wrong or it isn't - there's no need to complicate things with conspiracy theories or anything else

yeah the author isn't very credible but the data is sourced and the point seems to stand as far as I can tell. The sources do not seem to be contested as far as I can tell.

It seems that predictive modelers seem to often come to conclusions that put them in the spotlight and elevate the status of their field of research. It it probably more fair to say that scary models get more attention and thus incentivize

I think the most interesting datapoint to have come from global covid lockdowns is just how little the world is contributing to greenhouse gases compared to china. https://twitter.com/EthicalSkeptic/status/12875385

The implication that we even slowed the trajectory isn't well established. It's likely, but not proven. Let's not get ahead of ourselves by pretending there's evidence millions would have died when there's not eve

I found the design to be very intuitive even though I'd never encountered that type of information flow before. The curly braces didn't seem to serve any purpose as far as I could tell, but the negative space was great. I knew exa

Speak up against what? It's an unfalsifiable immeasurable diagnosis. I appreciate that most everyone means well, but academia is not some city on a hill with saints wielding an omniscient peer review process. Incredibly elementary stat

not sure why you've been down-voted but I thought that was well explained. I do rather strongly disagree with your example as being relevant, but I think you've made a lot of good, relevant points. Your example of stimulus being a

There's no DSM definition for sociopathic so I'll assume you mean antisocial disorder, which no, antisocial disorders can not be "very functional" as the category depends on the individual not being very functional. I re

Would it change your opinion if I already have done exactly that and I have been professionally diagnosed as a sociopath? I'm also not accusing anyone of anything. I'm very specifically asking a question and revealing my opinions

Do we pretend these labels are useful or are they useful? What is sociopathy? Can we measure it or just categorize it under some label of symptoms that themselves will be interpreted with a wide spectrum of perspectives? Everybody is differ

I would look at this from a different angle. Work friends have extreme pressure to be around you. They get paid to be around and collaborate with you. You can't easily determine the extent of a relationship standing on its own merit if

The best friends I've made in my career were from remote only teams. I guess you could say full remote is problematic in the sense that so is in-office for building relationships/teams. It's a trade off and I suspect the winn

and since we don't use anything resembling the scientific method with our laws there's no way of knowing if hate speech laws are effective. Being a law doesn't make it good. e.g. war on drugs

Care to make any predictions then? I'm always highly skeptical of confirmation bias and I think when I ask people to make predictions they immediately get a bit nervous which hopefully is enough to help them recognize they're only

This seems like an unnecessarily hostile response. I hope you find a hobby or passion that gets you out of any funk you might be in. I hope you can understand my opinions are made with good intentions. Feel free to disagree with them and fe

If anything our world is overpopulated. It seems to me we'd be remarkably better off with fewer kids. I reject the notion that systems optimizing for raising kids would put society in a superior place. I'm not against anyone havin

Have you ever lost a job because you don't have side-projects? This notion that we're being forced out of software jobs because we don't have side-projects just hasn't manifested anywhere that I've seen. It very muc

oh lol, welp sorry for making an assumption about what you meant. That alternative interpretation never occurred to me. I should've been more charitable in my interpretation, oh well.

I think you mean well, but that's a strawman. If your contract obligates you to let your employer know of other jobs you'd be in breech of contract. It's not okay to just assume these people are in breech of contract just bec
