Seeing patterns clear as day is, in fact, bias. My condition heightens my biases and makes me confront how flawed reasoning about the "obvious" is. I wouldn't have brought it up if I thought you might try some weird ad…
That's fairly rude. My point was that what manifests in myself as being negative manifests in other people as simply reading more into things than is actually there. Even trivial experiments are prone to biases.
I feel the same way, but people I know like their TV and I don't judge them for that. I have my own idle happinesses. If my favorite things to do were available on the same terms as modern television, I'd probably be…
The unfair bit is the filtering happening in your own brain. Without actual hard statistics, it's an anecdote. I don't care about scientific consensus, but I do care about process and data. If I try it myself, it'll be…
No channel 4 content still sucks. I have no legal avenue to even pay to watch the Stand Up to Cancer Bake Off episodes, unless I move to the UK. I'm pirating something that I would gladly pay for if they'd just let me.…
Most people I know went from dealing with live TV, high prices, and having to pirate what wasn't airing to paying for one or two streaming services to get everything they want. Then half of them kept getting new…
It does when your friends are also watching and somebody texts you "GOOOOOOAAALL" 30 seconds before you see it.
I regularly can't do that in LaTeX due to changes in packages. Yeah, the core is stable, but dependencies are still an issue in TeX land.
Science is specifically a process of cooperative knowledge building, using testable explanations and minimizing human biases. I would like to hear about your experiments, though. I don't have full faith in scientific…
Yeah, it's probably a regional thing. Here in Colorado, most cars don't really get that gross. I take a hose to mine like 3 times a year and dry it with a towel and it looks pretty nearly pristine. They'll only get very…
This is a 2.4 million year cycle, not something that can lend any credence to the idea that the arrangement of the planets at birth has any effect on a person. The arrangement of your house or neighborhood has a…
No, that's how optional flags should work. I mean how specifically -i works. With GNU sed: -lN, --line-length=N, -l N, --line-length N All work the same, set line length to N. -iSUFFIX --in-place=SUFFIX, -i NEXTARG…
It's not just "progress" vs "no progress". Some technical innovations, like leaded gasoline, have had more of a negative impact than a positive. It's not a binary, and not all technology is without cost. The argument…
You replied directly to a comment about currency, and replaced the word "currency" with "gold". How is that not comparing gold to a currency?
Bitcoin can't handle more than 10 transactions per second. That's absolutely useless for anything beyond a toy currency. I'm not against the idea of a fully-digital currency, even a crypto-currency, but Bitcoin is never…
I read books pretty sparingly, but my wife reads about 150 books a year. We heavily exercise our local library.
Yeah, I keep seeing suggestions like this and I just don't get it. Like the only way people can fathom something being available is if it's for sale. We really need shorter copyright terms more than anything else.
I don't think that's what the word "private" means. It's not the same thing as "honest". Compare the data. Mozilla may be less honest than Google and Microsoft (a premise I also disagree with), but they are demonstrably…
Yes. Literally every thread about monopolies.
My Comcast gigabit internet is only 25Mbps up. I'm pretty unhappy about it, as somebody who regularly has to push large docker images and wait forever each time.
Would be pretty easy for a motivated corporation to set up a branch composed entirely of those indigenous people for the purpose, or to form a partnership with a company of those indigenous people.
I don't understand the logic. They're more private for admitting that they don't respect your privacy?
TLS is more costly to implement than simply not encrypting or signing anything. Sometimes cost of implementation isn't the only consideration.
I'm kind of an AI pessimist, but I think that sounds like it could be a wonderful society. When the only work you need to do is work that you actually want to do. It could free up people to actually chase their dreams…
I think that's impossible. Bevy works heavily with Rust types and generic monomorphization. You couldn't do that in another language without literally generating Rust code and calling the compiler.
