At least in large cities, lots of (mostly young) people are already fully on board with a largely car-free future. It's increasingly common to dream of not owning a car at all, instead of having a dream car. All of my…
It looks like the outboard "wing" is on the windward side. Is it actually a counterweight to prevent the vehicle from tipping over in the wind? I would have expected it to be more like a sideboard on a sailboat being a…
Wealthy landowners are not a marginalized group
No. Communists are not nazis. Communists do not advocate for the extermination of any marginalized group. I made it very clear that the opinion being expressed matters here, so I'm not sure why you'd think this is…
So you suggest that everyone can express any opinion, no matter how inflammatory, without any repercussions? To be honest I find an absolute stance on that ridiculous. The questions I would ask are: - what kinds of…

No it does not. Just another generic "person with huge public reach complains about being criticized for their bigotry" article from the BBC. Somehow these people never see the irony about articles like this being in…
I've always loved math, but one class I didn't expect to like as much as I did was The History of Mathematics. The mathematical content was usually very basic of course, but putting all the things I was learning in my…
As a fellow ADHD-er, the way I handled this as a student was to customize my note-taking system. My whole life people had told me how to take notes in an extremely structured way, and insisted they must be detailed.…
I don't mean to say the devs have any ill intent. Just pointing out the reality it has trouble with feminine voices. Like veidr points out in response to my comments, implicit bias is a big issue. Probably they…
They are: https://mycroft.ai/blog/hey-mycroft-listen-to-me/ Although it hasn't gotten better from my perspective. But until I searched for this, I was totally unaware they've provided an easy way to train your own model…
