What does your definition of privilege mean? Bemoaning parents who supported their children in the combination of the parents interests does not seem like an egregious sin.
Other people have echoed the same advice, I’ll add to it. Take enough of a learn to sail class that you understand the basic theory —- I took one at my local yacht club. Then, find a racing fleet! Racing boats need crew…
Counterintuitively, the bigger the boat the less the fitness requirement. Small boats (dinghies) require crew weight in certain places (“hiking” as far out to windward as possible) and have less mechanical advantage in…
I own (half of) a racing boat on the Great Lakes. Buying a boat brings with it dreams of freedom, winning races, beautiful summer days. The reality is that you need crew! Serious racers will refer to their boat as their…
No, the anti-social elements. It is wrong to paint an entire racial group as anti-social, as you are doing.
Yeah, trains don’t run over the ocean.
The Apple Watch has best in class health sensors + fitness monitoring. Cycle tracking, blood O2 sensing, ecg function are all truly valuable. I bought a watch for myself, my parents and my girlfriend. The prompting and…
Sodas also have acid in them directly, the first 3 ingredients in Coke Zero are: > CARBONATED WATER, CARAMEL COLOR, PHOSPHORIC ACID, … https://us.coca-cola.com/products/coca-cola-zero-sugar/coca-...
Bank runs are always caused by memes -- the change is bank runs powered by image macros, but memetic spread of the idea "this bank may fail" is always what causes a run.
200k for the salary part might be the highest salary they offer. Often bonuses can be >100% of the salary. Bonuses vary based on firm performance. The advice is typically "Live within your salary, don't let your…
Yes, that seems to be a consideration. From the article: In a report peer reviewed and distributed by the Royal Statistical Society (RSS) in September 2022, Gill and colleagues detailed the statistical missteps in past…
This is something like a "culture" article, answering not "what does a Reactor Operator do?" (operate the reactor, duh), but "what is a Reactor Operator like?". Describing them in this joking, colorful way give readers…

Are you asking about the feedstock input to plastic, or the energy input? I doubt that the Energy Information Administration tracks feedstock inputs, as they are not consumed as energy.
Not being able to send means they can't use Starlink in Belarus, right? There's no ability to send e.g. HTTP GET, so you can't actually use the internet. Right?
I wonder if it's more complicated that that. Narrowly looking at the CO2 effects of shutting down AL smelters in Iceland, that will make the global supply for the metal lower, raising prices. Perhaps that would make it…
CO2 doesn't directly poison people in the same way the industrial waste/emissions poison people. This fundamental fact is one of the major reasons it is difficult to coordinate CO2 emissions reductions -- the harm is…
The writers current state is forgetting, so it's not totally unreasonable to use the present tense. The good news about English as a language is that it is very resilient to grammar mistakes, you don't need to do all…
> While I could go into a long story here about the relative merits of the two designs, suffice it to say that among the people who actually design operating systems, the debate is essentially over. Microkernels have…
How do you present novel ideas in this framework?
Expertise isn't a cure all. An example is the famous Minux/Linux fight. Tanenbaum was a distinguished professor, arguing with some guy on the internet who built a kernel. "Is a monokernel a viable way to build a first…
"Fact checking" serves only to ossify the current view on any emerging discussion. Vatican "fact checkers" kept Galileo under house arrest for spreading "fake news", in a sense. This is an unwinnable fight, the only…
That's cool, guess the full cycle carbon footprint is dependent on what you use to power the water + co2 -> methane process.
> Dismayed by the lack of an environmental plan, I created a plan that would bring SpaceX to full carbon neutrality by 2030. It contained a framework for a diverse and functional society that would learn from our…
Why does Samsung likely have fewer suppliers? Samsung makes more varieties of phones, and their phones are technically similar to Apple phones.
