It sucks that you are now unable to take advantage of poor immigrants because they are not in desperate need of money. It is nice that they have temporarily escaped their cycle of poverty. Instead of complaining about how they are wasting t

Wouldn't this create so many jobs? There are many jobs in Canada that can't exist because of how expensive it is to hire people (which coincides with how expensive it is to live in Toronto). Subsidise that, and many people will be

The existence of irrational numbers was dangerous. The Earth being on an orbit was dangerous. Non-royalty having legal rights was dangerous. The prole having legal rights was dangerous. The idea of electing any public officials was

The funny thing is, the shift of accepting the existence "unacceptable" speech hurts liberal speech more than conservative speech (I looked at the numbers from https://www.niskanencenter.org/there-is-no-campus-free

It's like the reverse of the /g/ or /sci/ meme with a picture of Makise Kurisu saying "You should be able to solve this" accompanied by a laughably difficult problem.

If there is positive utility from shopping while crowded, it means the game is Prisoner's Dilemma: going shopping will be always the best option. I can understand why they didn't consider that possibility as it is "unsolvable

Using a job market matching model would be more appropriate for this, seeing that each hour is associated with an convenience level (a la wages) and disutility from crowding. However economics is about studying equilibria, not finding recip

The unholy trinity of upvotes/downvotes/karma creates some "echo chamberishness" (if I have to put it nicely) and pressure on posting as users tend to use the power to punish "wrongthink" instead of low effort

You need to enclose numbers to access the prototype: 1.toString is undefined, whereas (1).toString() is "1"

If you are not struggling academically, you can learn more by taking higher level classes. Talk to your advisor about balancing this. Learning applied subjects is easier than learning theory, so make the most of your limited time with the p

There will be no equilibrium without ads if you are okay with paying even with ads.

I am throughly horrified at the difference between the approaches of American and European schools. Most European schools have already moved fall semester online while American schools are scrambling to preserve their tuitions. I mean, just

If they are collecting and storing that data into neatly labeled folders, any prosecutor worth their salt could make a compelling case for stalking.

Why would you trust them? If you are trying to archive something, make sure to use multiple (separately owned) services so that you don't need to trust them.

They have programming as a career first while you have it as a hobby first. I wouldn't consider them wrong for doing this, but your annoyance at someone using your passion as a tool for their ends also is not unfounded.

Maybe they shouldn't have been forced to choose between Hillary/Biden or Trump if you wanted them to choose "wisely". The responsibility for losing to Trump falls solely on the Democratic Party, and the talk of footguns

In a similar spirit, another very useful Windows tool is Windows Keyboard Layout Creator. I first started by editing the US English keyboard to have an AltGr key which produced Turkish letters like ğ and Ş, and just recently I added a Greek

Wealth is (obviously) corralated with many properties that make it easier to gain wealth. To look at the effect of parents' wealth (and solely that) on children, you need to look into lottery winners or Bitcoin/APPL holders.

I'd also say that the limited range is a nice way to force people to take breaks on long journeys. My guess would be that this decreases the accident rate of electric vehicles a bit.

items .select(&:is_the_best) .flat_map { |i| i.sub_item.map(&:value) } Not having functional constructs really hurts readability, and I don't want to think about what would happen to the list comprehension

Something I really like in k/q is that operators have no precedence and everything is executed right to left. To take a "fast" 8th power you can just do c*c:s*s:x*x with no ambiguity of parsing whatsoever.

Not to mention the plethora of issues that arise from trying to fit an ARIMA onto an AR(1) process... It's weird that people just jump into using insanely complicated models right off the bat.

I wouldn't necessarily call the community/website "great" given that the discussion would devolve into a flame war just because a different half of the title was used.

Nonstandard analysis exists (with infinitesimal and infinite numbers) , but 1/3 and 9/9 is the same there. The problem is that the numbers 0.333... and 0.999... don't really exist.

No pure Nash Equilibria means they won't ever converge, as humans are great at seeing patterns that aren't there and cannot make random choices without outside help.
