If a company puts itself in a position as gatekeeper between people and essential services, it behooves them to put in the effort to equalize access. Intention doesn't have much if anything to do with it, it's a plainly obvious ou

It's good that the batteries are many times smaller than electric cars and trucks. I still have a problem with the accounting being focused on what the consumer directly experiences rather than the full lifecycle of the vehicle (manufa

I'd like to see the numbers in the full accounting, ie, how much carbon cost is added with Slack calls and the like. Somehow I think (analog) biking to the office wins over fully remote especially if you have video on for more than one

They accepted the role and fulfilled the duties that were asked of them by the company. They had all the chances to intervene or divest before such a model made it to production.

Big tech companies are extreme outliers. There's only a small fraction of big tech compared to other companies.

That's about senior-level compensation even among most companies in the Bay Area. Only the extreme outliers with good performance on the stock market can be said to be significantly higher in TC. Edit: even then, TC is tied to how the

The issue of rationality in analysis is it is forced to take on the base assumptions of the thing it's analyzing. If you start from false premises you will reach bad conclusions. This is the difference between rationality and reason. M

Before Reagan advertising was subject to FCC regulations around producing and publishing advertisements aimed at children. Once it was deregulated the big toy companies went full bore on commercial ads and we have the familiar experience to

Claims of 19σ are throwing up red flags but nothing seems off about the claims of the paper condemning MOND, except perhaps the obscure use of reparametrization to a 0-1 interpolation between Newtonian and MOND dynamics. Perhaps the extreme

Robots can be very strong without having to look like they're straining, so the effort displayed seemed in theme. Especially with those hydraulics and clamps. I would guess there's a one minute time constraint to the finished piec

No because your toddler has vision, audio, and touch sensors attached in order to correlate language use with 3D physical phenomena. Additionally, it has the ability to connect causal explanations of those phenomena with experiments it can

Only in the sense that they set a floor, but not that they set a ceiling. Thus, very limited utility in the context of understanding consumer prices.

Wholesale prices are not consumer prices.

Drivers don't typically have signals high-resolution 360 degree views, accelerometers, and other sensors on the outside of an insulated steel and aluminum vehicle piped directly into their sensory experience.

One out of five makes it a common opinion, even if it's not the majority.

There's a difference between identifying patterns between individuals and identifying cultural (superorganismal) patterns themselves.

Hardly. They trained on the output of numerical simulations, so it's basically a method for summarizing approximate dynamics of numerical simulations themselves.

"All models are wrong, some models are useful." Some are more wrong and more useful simultaneously ;) This is actually the typical state of things in numerical simulation: we have infinite-resolution differential equations modelin

Black holes, to us, are entirely entropy, thus no "useful work" is available for computation.

And what of the sympathy for the dehumanized "criminals"? Have you ever been in such a desperate position that threatening violence on another person seems like a good idea? I came close once and I can tell you it completely chang

The conflict of interest is precisely defined in GP. This is tantamount to bribery paid to journalists so they write a nicer story. Corruption is corruption.

Robbery is not a violent crime unless they specifically threaten violence. If you just give someone your stuff when they ask you because you feel threatened that's not enough. You actually have to be threatened for violence to occur.
