Trust-by-default is a consequence of the fact that enough people don't exploit norms, don't lie. We're in no need of turning off the gene (assuming it's nature, not nurture, which I'm not so sure about), since if

I'm guessing there are some "nail dimensions" that get hammered down, and some that are encouraged. (There are some anomalous characteristics that are accepted or incentivized, and some that are penalized.) I'm curious,

The precise number doesn't really matter. The strongman interpretation is that we just read and skim too much each day.

I prefer Erving Goffman.

Huh. Is it really valid to think of investment or cash as tainted by the norms that they originate from, affecting the characteristic parameters of the system it flows into (norms of the institutions and people in the EU)? In what manner is

Naive question: what's cool about doing webrtc outside a browser?

Cool project. But that download graphic just screams spam, unfortunately. (I had to hover over it to make sure it wouldn't take me off the site.)

There are way worse things that you could experience which is present even today (psycological things especially). This doesn't sound too bad actually.

Hopefully it won't crash the same time as the ML and javascript framework hype explodes. Or maybe it'd be the kick in the bum this comfortable industry needs to start innovating for real again.

Why does everyone ask questions they know the answer to?

How does that actually work? How far down the chain of related facts to the national security incident are parties allowed/required to lie? If facts can be used to triangulate the secret, that can't be disclosed, right? Are incide

What does this mean for subsistence agriculture? Is starting a self-sufficient religion all of a sudden much cheaper and feasible (after the up-front robot cost has been payed)?

The employer chooses what he wants to pay for, unfortunately. Some employers will feel like doing this is a breach of trust, and some will use it as a base for firing, and some might even call it theft and press charges.

He deserves credit for choosing his staff well, I totally give him that.

You do realize it's probably not actually Bernie who came up with the name? (It's one of his underlings.)

So glad people are talking about the deceptive strategies EU companies uses to mimic those in the US. It's as if there's a deep cultural force against acting like US startups here in the EU, which I frankly don't like and wou

No need to berate yourself about being meta. It's a perfectly valid question to wonder if this article is fake.

Imagine if he knew this would happen, and the reason he went on rogan was a strategic play to win public favour. (I mean I love Elon, but it's not totally improbable.)

Small sub-cultures, like this one, do experiments all the time in their little corner of the web. Some of the cultures die after a while, and some grow into something else, something bigger, something that starts to percolate on the mainstr

That mountain ridge trick, how reliable of an identifier is that? I'm not really questioning the validity of its use in this situation, but I'd be curious to know more about the nature of the ridge to gps coordinates mapping. How

You'd probably do yourself a favour by avoiding "good guy, bad guy" thinking. In their position, wouldn't you act the same way? Doctors have a finite amount of energy and time to spend on their job. What is a resource ef

Where can I find more blogs like these that explore the n-gram data to come up with interesting conclusions about trends or phase transitions in history?

What's the reason companies tend to do huge layoffs like this, a bunch of people at the same time, instead of firing them slowly one-by-one? It doesn't seem like a big public event like this is optimal to the companys bottom line,
