To whom shall I address the invoice for my time though?
I think that the factor for Europe is immigration. A majority of new Europeans are Muslims and that is by far the fastest growing religion.
> were themselves free of bias. At what point do we start growing people solely for the purpose of leading unbiased existences away from all of humanity? Of course these existences are isolated from all humanity lest…
Because not all societies enshrine individual freedom as their primary value. China has historically valued orderliness, collective well-being, and personal sacrifice. This sucks from a Western perspective, but it also…
There seem to be many unique things to this year though: * Apple announces it will no longer report unit sales. This is a clear shift in strategy. * Orders have been cut not once, but twice. * Suppliers have been…
It strikes me as somewhat ironic that Nature would public this given that they recently tweeted: > Editorial: The US Department of Health and Human Services proposes to establish a legal definition of whether someone is…
I think the media and social justice movement also played a role. I distinctly remember people with very relevant credentials stating that it was impossible to obtain accurate clinical result from such tiny amounts of…
I just hope the EU has the foresight to make the legislation enforceable in a post-EU European legal environment.
This sums it up. Apple has built up a lot of good will over the last decade or so. It will take a while for current Apple to burn through it.
Also important: children became liabilities instead of being assets. Nearly all labour which a child could contribute to has been automated or reduced. In countries where children can be trusted with the responsibility…
> Plus, surface diversity is much easier to measure; and you optimize for your metrics. I think this is key. Until "diversity" becomes so absolutely fragmented that you get back down to the level of the individual…
Unfortunately those bureaucrats are actually doing work. A good chunk of it is around Title IX since the consequences were so severe if you didn't have enough bureaucrats to handle the extra-judicial pseudo-tribunals to…
I'm amazed that there is no mention of the sheer repairability of these devices. I don't think I will ever encounter a laptop line that is generally so user-accessible. A couple of regular screws and you pop the case. A…
The really interesting part is the need to appoint two independent directors. Currently, Tesla's leadership could best be described as a monarchy, with King Elon appointing family and favoured friends. That will have to…
Because when the rated party also rates the rater, ratings are essentially useless. The question you ask yourself is: is this person so absolutely awful as a passenger/driver that I'm willing to risk being kicked off…
> To 99% of people, these features are useful and helpful, with the downsides being mostly philosophical or theoretical. There is something there that makes it comparable to the early nature conservation movements. Fast…
Commenting specifically on the black names example: I am skeptical because they replicated the results of a study on humans based on the Implicit Association Test. I would be generous in calling that the Myers-Briggs of…
> Is not having a straw really the struggle people make it out to be? Counterpoint: are straws really the problem? Last I checked they were a fraction of a percent of total plastic, whereas things like fishing nets made…
The short of it is that the ACLU consider affirmative action a form of just racism. This form of racism corrects for past transgressions, helps achieve diversity targets, and "keeps the doors open" for minorities, so…
