No, that doesn't follow. Students coming from the top 5% can have loan debt. The top 5% includes many (mostly?) families that could not afford to pay out of pocket for MIT, and even those that could may choose not to.

Well, I realize now that there is a leftism->Land connection mentioned in the article. I was too harsh. But I still think there us conflation going on.

I think there are at least 3 different meanings of acceleration-ism, and you are conflating some of them. But the article is too, and once I read the article I started to as well. Is there hard evidence of an intellectual connection between

Doesn't the article cover this? No one seems to be saying what I thought the article said, but I don't "know" pizza. He broke the safety latch off his oven and put a piece of foil over the sensor, and runs his oven on Cl

I kinda wonder how well this will work. My experience with the echo is that it understands my voice and questions very poorly, far worse than Google's assistant on phones. I've never tried google home. I guess identifying a person

I don't think smoking will go away completely, the effects are noticeably different than vaping and edibles. Agree that in the US, it seems everywhere it is legalized non-smoke options become more popular.

Yeah, Lain jumped out to me as a questionable inclusion in that list as well. It has hikikomori themes, though I wouldn't have thought of it that way before, but no major characters are hikikomori. OTOH Tatami Galaxy makes sense to me,

I'm not sure why strawberry pickers are always the example. Is there really a shortage? When I was a teenager, in the country, that was a common minimum wage job mostly done by 14 year olds. It really does suck, almost any job would be

I think that binary options were a literal scam. The pusher sells real drugs.

Hate to say I told ya so implies that you are linking to some prediction about exit tracking, or facial recognition in airports. Your post you link is about your prediction that Social Media account credentials will be required to be handed

Dense was incorrect, in retrospect. Let's say denser than stereotypical suburbia. Single family homes and duplexes, few garages. Subdivisions from around 1910 or so. Areas, which are acceptable for car-less living for some people, but

There are inner ring suburbs in the US that have good transit access, short bike trips to jobs, and even dense portions with trendy bars and restaurants, but getting groceries for a family there can still kinda suck. Even if the store is on

Maybe it would help you (honestly, not trying to sound condescending) to reevaluate what acting like Nazis would look like.

That's a bummer. One of my favorite things is to walk down the middle of the street in my Grandma's town on Thanksgiving or Christmas. Small town, shops are closed, quiet except for a few bars and people's homes. Also a good

Interesting. I, like many stereotypical nerds have smoked weed and played Magic the Gathering. With real cards, I kinda find the game irritating, but didn't feel a skill drop. Just would rather listen to music or just look at the pictu

When my camera is in B&W mode, no data is thrown away. The raws are the same, still color. It may be different for non-canons, though I doubt it, and it is different if you are producing jpegs obviously.

Probably depends on what you do. And, I've luckily really never had to repair a laptop. Never drop my phone either, except a tragic drop of a blackberry pearl from 2 feet onto concrete that killed it. 60% or my work is through SSH, 30%

I always appreciate that Hulu has its Criterion collection section. And I very recently signed up for Seeso for $4 a month because I was craving some Monty Python's Flying Circus. I don't plan on keeping it long term, maybe just a

I agree. Well, for the most part edutainment Youtube videos are pretty much the opposite of entertaining for me. Irritating? But I agree Scott Alexander's essay length is an issue. I read SSC, and like it, but an editor would improve h

I like this. It's short, and covers how influential philosophy has been. And I have no problem with snark from someone who's interest has become the butt of cheap jokes. However, when it comes to the greater conversation, I'm
