This is the kind of destructive and blind magical thinking that gets people into trouble, and ruins lives. There are boundaries on how much you can inflate before it causes cascade failures at a societal level. We've already hit a numb

caprock, I would not recommend investing in the stock market at all, and standard disclaimer, this is not financial advice; you are responsible for your own due dilligence... yada... that said. The stock market no longer meets the requireme

Hi Will, I'm curious what your thoughts are about the Nix uniqueness problem, and the characterization of failures, or lack thereof under undefined behavior's failure domains. Exception handling generally requires a defined and de

Well, you missed out on a lot. Stories should provoke flexible thinking and perspective shifts in an entertaining way, they should not make you unhappy. If you get hung up on surface level things like that assuming the worst, you close your

Well, maybe you mis-communicated and spoiled the dinosaur thing, since there's an inconsistency, because that doesn't make sense with the paraphrase you provided, seems like there is something missing. That said, the development o

Well, in fairness the majority of that system has been taken over by communism. Quite a lot of the methods and techniques they use are based in Marx or Mao, though the teachers aren't taught the origins of the tools they use, which hav

Yes, that does goes without saying for unvetted sources, what you say is just a less formalized way of saying, follow Descartes Rules of Method. That said, the handling of the tech received a seal of approval from me, and I've quite a

I am sorry to say, the job market right now is worse than at any time previously in living memory. It is a shit show and everyone knows it. In my opinion you should tailor your resume to the job minimizing irrelevant experience that is clut

Overall, not the greatest article. This seems to promote a misleading understanding of how interest rates being lowered will impact the economy, by taking parts in isolation that are not static or independent, and associating them with past

The technical director on that remake had a sound head on his or her shoulders. They correctly treated many aspects and details that today go ignored and addressed many of the issues that apply to us today with regards to adversaries who ca

Yeah it is a heavily flawed argument too. You really can't have a rational argument where someone accepts falsehoods as legitimate. Those people are inherently blind. The people who were massacred at Hue would likely attest to the fals

On a side note, it is also a critical dependency to safeguard that right in the first place. A right to history and culture is also another dependency since people are functions of the culture they learn from their parents. The burning of b

The money part of the issue is based from preferential money printing which gets spread around, without this there's a finite amount of money that can be made. The market in this area would collapse. Surveillance capitalism would disap

Agreed, and sensitive information can be used to coerce and harass/bully. Imagine situations where pregnancies and the mere fact that it happened is grounds for the family to throw you out, based on intolerance of their religious belie

This won't work, and they know it so they'll just lie and say yes knowing it can't ever happen. They also have influence and control over this information through the nature of their positions. Look at the recordings that wen

The real issue is companies are incentivized to be hacked, and to collect everything so they can sell it as a subscription. They have almost no liability for improperly securing their own systems and they allocate their budget accordingly.

You are mistaken. There is real harm in strangers knowing sensitive information about you. You seem to have a blindspot for how coercion works. There's harassment, struggle sessions, and blackmail as well as many other things. If someo

That is because the boomer generation was raised in a time where technology publicly wasn't turned on them in undisclosed ways. They were in control, and the laws had more teeth than they do now. Their cohort was incentivized to help t

It is not absurd, it is frightening, because when you look closely at the details of how the systems currently function it shows they are not functioning. The rule of law is meant as a safeguard for non-violent conflict resolution. It requi

I disagree that people are complacent. What we are seeing today is the same thing East-germany saw under The Stasi. The primary issue is that there is no means to correct the situation non-violently. When you have people as a group lie for

Not really. When the structures and elements are observable and present, it is fair to call something exactly what it is so long as it is from a rational basis. Also, these types don't tell the truth often, and regularly seek to dissem

In my opinion its likely not naivety at all but a campaign following standard socialist ploys in subversion (cultural contagion). They hit most of the common rhetoric talking points, and its common knowledge in some circles that these types

The article falls apart because its written for the communist heart. The entire point of the article is promoting cancel culture in a roundabout way as if its justified, and suggesting inducements into frames of thinking that are not health
