Ordered set meaning you can compare them and come up with a "total ordering." The point is that relationships can't be boiled down to a single number or objective metric.

You're thinking about it slightly wrong. You want to know the number of possible people you might date. These are "dateable candidates." If that number is "n", then by the constraints given, you don't want to e

This is true, but that's also why they're willing to buy high value companies outside of the US. They can essentially have two separate budgets: Money already in the US [to be spent in the US] and money outside of the US which wil

I agree that the bar for safety should be ~10x human-level. But I also find it interesting, because that should be a moving target. Eg if we realize humans often rear end the car in front of them, and fix that with "auto braking",

Good point, worth skimming [if you've heard of the original article]. Maybe a better direction to go would be "how long until leaks occur" given the number of people on a project. This isn't that different [although it&#

I think Planet Money talked about how you could just give the taxes back to poor people as a tax refund, and it would still have the same positive effect without being a regressive tax. I don't think it was this article, but it's

So I think I largely understand your point. But I am genuinely curious to know how you would then get information about products. Would it be on-demand research only? Would you browse lists of new products [eg the Wirecutter's "Re

Silly thing to nit, off topic, etc. Also, since I see no reason why grammarist is more trustworthy than wiki, you're not even necessarily right: [from wiki] "A pooh-pooh (also styled as poo-poo)..."

"Begs the question" is now commonly used in that way. This comment does not really contribute to the discussion. It feels like a "Well-actually" from Recurse Center's social rules.

Is it possible that top doctors are just taking on the most challenging cases? The implicit "explanation" [which seems testable and currently unverified] is that senior cardiologists attempt more interventions [eg angioplasties],

What's particularly outrageous about this is that there is seemingly no way for consumers to make a market "choice" for privacy.

I would love to see a polling system that is not as dumb as first-past-the-post [ie only pick one] which is currently used everywhere and provides very little information.

What are the sins of Ripple? I tried googling but only saw some mentions of "problems with the existing consensus algorithm" which seem to have been remedied with Stellar's 2015 April whitepaper.

This is not a good idea. Should Amazon be forced to sell Confederate flags if they find them immoral? Curated app stores are a good thing for users. Should Apple be forced to compromise the quality of their user experience because of rand

In bigger cities, if you compare this to cars looking for parking spaces, I think you'll actually see a net decrease in traffic.
