I have as well, but I'm more of a cynic. Usually you can trace requirements back to either DEI dependent funding or government contract requirements. Less common is an attempt to market or build positive brand…
Nobody inside the org cares about gender ratios, but they do have to react to people outside of the org who care a whole lot. It's easier to explain reality than to try and change it.
Any kind of real physical restrictions will initially be geofenced to grade seperated roads.
First the speed limiter, then massive fines for speeding, then limited registration for legacy cars. As long as possible might be shorter than you would like.
I have seen many public transport systems privatised and worsened over time; since there are many ways to play with funding and quality, you can hide a whole lot of bullshit. Frequency, hours, cleaning, security, ticket…
The biggest problem with public transport is usually the public. Segregated services for commuters are great, but catching a bus to shop/recreation/restaurants is miserable and restrictive. As as aside, developing mass…
Kind of funny to see a comment that completely ignores the idea of distributions and outliers in a thread talking about math.
Concrete stairwells are supposed to double as refuges, if you can't climb. Also devices that allow easier access to an apartment are more acceptable in Japan. In the US there is a much greater need for security oriented…
When you value a business, part of it is brand and people's habits. The new owners are betting that they can trade in that value for cash, by selling a crap lesser product under the old name, and that this will return…
That it's an emotional reaction to someone using easily available material to train a program rather than themselves. I always saw it as a technological consequence of allowing people to view their work; training a…
Weird take... AI art is cheap or free, but that doesn't mean anything at all in relation to how you treat the person providing the service. You have failed to understand that the value of the service is fundamentally…
This completely ignores higher order effects, if you can't employ someone to do a task at a wage that makes profit, it creates conditions where capital investment in innovation and labour multiplication makes more…
Fair is an odd word here, the system should work for the greatest benefit for Americans. I think a wage threshold and weighting would be best, but others think a controlled random mixing of labour markets is better for…
There is a huge difference between defending a patent in a free market and regulatory capture mandating a product. The patent system is not very compatible with highly regulated markets, it changes the game from…
