I believe that this quote was not published in that book, and instead he "remembered" the quote years after the book was published to put in a Harper's article. He chose not to publish it in the book because he was focused on

Almost no one besides the publishers have numbers, but it is rare for more than 1 or 2 (probably sailor moon or fruits basket) shoujo books to be in the Amazon top 100 manga titles at a time. And that cool Josei title everyone is talking ab

I feel like part of the problem is that “boomer” culture remains ubiquitous, but hasn’t aged along side the actual people. So people are still excited about, say, the 50th anniversary of the Grateful Dead (not that the living members themse

We could give them money for that (just to take it away again), but they probably won't produce $50 of value without getting someone else to stay home who also has debts to pay. So I guess this is more of a belief in the value of work

What do you think the meaning of the quote is I guess? One point of the quote is that protection of the concept of private property is a function of the police. It's more of a piece of (I think accurate) neutral analysis with how I&#x2

Well the man who said it is a leftist, and was making a leftist point overall. But out of context it is more of a neutral analysis.

There was plenty of hardcore porn tumblr. But I agree, many of people posted softcore on their main blog, but it was rare to see hardcore reposts on someone's discourse blog.

In their post they are contrasting personal ethics vs professional standards (which would pertain to how work is done, I would say). A code of professional standards could say, for example, You have to keep clear notes for decisions made fo

I don't know if there is a way out of that for them. There are probably more people who associate being unfashionable and eating unhealthy snacks with using Linux than an old fashioned hat.

There is a theory about the suicide rate among farmers (which has always been high) that I'm not sure I completely believe, but I don't think it's nonsense. It goes something like: Farmers (well, I'm speaking mainly abou

Lake Tahoe has been popular way longer than you are giving it credit for. It's had tourists for over a hundred years, and Squaw Valley hosted the Olympics in 1960.

I don't know that this hasn't been done already. If you're working on automotive software, for example, you will comply with ISO 26262. Is this the type of professional standards you are referring to?

No, seems like its becoming more mainstream so maybe this year I will try it. But screens attached to your eyes can only be so compelling. At least in the movies it makes sense to work in these truly immersive environments. Working with an

This doesn't make sense to me at all. Surely you could prototype faster with existing EDA tools that some VR tool where you "built" the circuit in VR. You can already do sophisticated simulation without VR, you don't nee

I appreciated the article but was feeling the same way. Mainly the portion about working primarily in VR and refurnishing the lab for reclining on the floor as a result. It's interesting, but foreign to me. Strange Days and Existenz ar

I also "have" aphantasia. (Am aphantasic?) No 1 I never connected it to this, but yes, I have terrible sense of direction. I do okay if there are physical landmarks (Like lake to the west or hills to the east) and numbered streets

I don't think there are any present, but fault injection mitigations (besides constant time execution, which does help) are something I'd be interested seeing their approach to. I think it would be very useful if there were a way

Russ Feingold is the only politician I have been actually excited to vote for, and I wonder if he will run again in 2022. He will be fairly old by then.

I do understand that, but I have also heard things from supposed leftists like "Oh, everyone's rent will go up by $1000." This says less about leftist movements than the people I talk to.

UBI is a libertarianish policy, and Big Think has published pro-UBI articles in the past. OTOH, Rushkoff's objections are from a left perspective, and leftists in general seem to be coming out against it. In the past some less-radical

Street Fighter 4 had a feature kinda like that (with predefined selectable styles). AFAIK it was not popular. Sometimes my friends would turn it on as a joke.

I think black is the "PC" term. Poc is more broad, and african-american is seen as outdated to some. It certainly reflects different ideas of one's identity.

Some are saying this is inaccurate, that Newsom is instead trying to reorganize the project to reduce cost overruns an focus on the central valley portion first, but that SF to LA is not canceled. https://twitter.com/Scott_W

RE: #3 I think Perl for Verilog metaprogramming is pretty common, but I'm not really sure, have rarely written the stuff myself. But I've seen it before.
