As I said, I don’t agree with either their methods or their goals. It’s because I don’t want these kinds of laws in the world that I want to see shallow dismissals of them replaced by effective arguments. No one here needs convincing, what

We’ve been living with guns for centuries, we’ve been living with drones for decades, and only the last decade saw them in the hands of many people. I suspect the current “Wild West” of drones is a temporary phenomenon.

I’m totally against the Australian approach and goal here, but come off it, you know that isn’t what was meant. Three lines of argument are especially noteworthy: “It is impossible to regulate cryptography.” or “Banning cryptography is lik

That was a very interesting read. It occurred to me as I was reading that “peace” as a moral precept is ostensibly central to Christianity, right down to not defending yourself. Obviously that doesn’t describe the actual history of the reli

That sounds like a rephrasing of the quote, “The constitution isn’t a suicide pact.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Constitution_is_not_a_su... It is most often attributed to Abraham Lincoln, as a response to cha

Dude, some guy with a Ph.D. in quantum computing from MIT brought me a steak for a $10 tip; does that not concern you? Dude, your n=1 anecdote isn’t as amusing or compelling as you seem to think. Your entire argument seems more like a thi

One thing that struck me about this story was that he made some good decisions and some bad ones, but as he points out he got really lucky a bunch of times. None of his habits would have mattered if he’d been in the restaurant, if he’d ha

The good points being made about the tenuous link between current quantum computing theory and anything like reality is consistently undermined by his “old man shouts at clouds” attitude. Physicists used to be serious and bloody minded peo

Sure, it’s hard to get right, and patient advocacy groups in particular can be wildly off target. By advocacy I mean one-on-one, for someone you actually have a connection to, and limited to issues you can reasonably understand. For some

I’m seeing little negativity, just the realities of dispensing with unwarranted optimism. Shorting of pithing myself, it’s goinf to be hard to ignore what Google is and show it works just because they throw a (for them) small amount of mone

You have no idea about what it is to be a doctor and you are just reacting to one sided story. On the other hand it’s ressonable as a patient not to care what it’s like being a doctor, your job as the patient is to be honest, give complet

I think people do realize that it’s codifying the “science” of “Ah reckon” and realize that same heuristic is famously terrible. Coding bias intentionally into an algorithm seems more like a thin justification for pre-existing profiling tha

That’s fair, and as someone who has used cast iron for a long time, I won’t blow a load of smoke up your pants by claiming it’s “super easy!” I mean... it’s not complicated, but it’s also not hard to screw up and that’s a form of difficulty

Actually a properly seasoned cast iron pan is about as non-stick as it gets, but it’s heavy and people worry about dealing with it. For getting crusty stuff off pans though, nothing beats a thick layer of bicarbonate of soda, sprayed libera
