After the first hundred million dollars spent on personal expenditures, what material gains to quality of life are there?

I'm sure game theorists have studied this problem extensively so I could be very wrong and just showing off my ignorance, but I would think that the rational/utilitarian thing in a situation where a large number of actors are acti

The media may have made the problem appear a little faster, but they can't be the actual cause of the shortage, the supply strain existed well before the first headline was ever pushed.

What percentage of their value do you think the average worker currently makes (Pick any specific occupation you'd like, if this is too vague)? If its less than 100%, how would you propose they petition to increase it to be 100%, as et

Depends on what that means in absolute terms, how many Jims can you expect to hire?

Not really, it just implies that there's a common perception that may or may not reflect reality.

There's never going to be a perfect comparison when the same AI can drive every car in the fleet at the same time, whereas one human brain can drive at most one car at a time.

Arguably, even that can be construed as clickbait since it hides the metadata that the full article is the full article ;)

Its weird, because the quality of the product has fairly low correlation to the production costs associated with the product (including even the marketing budgets!), whether it is distributed as a cartridge or 2 DLLs over Steam.

If you wish to redefine these terms, then ideally do so at the start of the thread and not after providing a potentially misleading link for users who may not be familiar with which terms you're using.

The worst part (for me at least) of social media mobs is that they can only ever "cancel" someone who genuinely wants to engage in good faith. Someone who earnestly wants to talk to an audience suffers so much more than someone wh

The fee you pay would almost certainly be less than the value they can extract from your metadata (especially since it can only grow more valuable as time passes)

But do you agree we should stop it when their instrument of voicing said opinion goes from online forum to pitchforks and firearms? If so, where do you propose the line exists? If not, I would suggest you're advocating that the "l
