>we aren't even going to drop a single rocket on Beijing? You are being naive. Are you really ready to risk WW3/Nuclear War to support these protests?
Very high chance this guy is a Chinese astroturfer. Posts like these need to be called out for what they are, state sponsored propaganda.
If every single person in the US ate only vegetarian, used no plastic, all drove electric cars, didn't use air travel etc. the net effect on the climate would be essentially nil. Personal actions have virtually no…
After I read the 2014 IPCC Report in grad school I was pretty convinced that we have no hope of stopping it. We are almost surely going to pass 2 Degrees of atmospheric warming if not significantly more and this says…
Given that recent grads probably male 200K their first year at Google I'd say its probably north of 1.5M which is obviously ridiculous. Top portfolio managers at major Hedge Funds barely make that.
So you're saying they're likely going to flop since they're chasing prestige rather than talent? Good to know.
To be fair its quite bad in STEM as well e.g http://cs.brown.edu/people/apapouts/faculty_dataset.html Not a real surprise that MIT, Berkeley, Stanford and CMU dominate CS faculty output.
You are vastly overestimating how good Author identification methods are.
The likelihood that they were able to use Stylometry to identify him is near Nil in my opinion. State of the art language models out of Google, Stanford, MIT etc. are barely able to accurately identify authors based on…
Isn't this peak SV bubble territory? I mean come on, Equity Comp is not that complicated, a few blog posts should get you 80% of the way to understanding it and it's certainly not complicated enough to justify needing a…
>why should they be taxed to subsidize someone else's college? THEY WONT BE. Bernie's plan taxes Wall Street trades to pay for itself. I doubt many tradesman are making huge volumes of derivates trades so they will…
Honestly the misinformation and fear mongering in this comment is staggering. Ignoring your blatantly antisocial comments about taxes and social improvement, nowhere has Bernie or any other Democrat for that matter…
This validates your parent comments statement. Was that your point? The OP is not interpreting correlation correctly.
>The SAT when combined with the high school GPA (HSGPA) has an adjusted correlation correlation coefficient of 0.56 with first-year GPA, meaning the combined measurement accurately predicts how a potential college…
Why would anyone want foreign money driving up prices for residents by insane margins and then keeping the bought property empty? It's just common sense to not want that.
Why beat around the bush, they are literally Autocracies. Dozens of people in this thread will try to convince you of why you should be grateful to work at one though. Capitalist propaganda has been astonishingly…
>Elizabeth Warren wants workers placed on company boards. Employees having a say in what their company does?!?!?! OH THE HUMANITY, THINK OF THE INVESTORS!!! /s BTW Von Mises is a crank and anyone that follows Austrian…
Bouman surely made an impact but she didn't lead the team or conceive of the project.
>I agree with you that the scientific community is way behind industry standards You could say the same about academic CS code which is arguably far more egregious since this is their field. I don't think most…
So can we also start the conversation with how Assange handed Trump the 2016 Election and has enabled a Psychopathic Egomaniac to terrorize Minorities in the US and ruthlessly breaks apart young children from their…
You seem to be massively misunderstanding the Bay Area real estate market. Homes are routinely bought in full cash 20% over asking. No average engineers are making those kinds of offers.
This analogy fails almost immediately. Real VCs distribute their bets across dozens of companies. You personally are placing one massive bet on one single company so your odds are far worse than a VC.
1. The data you posted is 20 years old. 2. The data is talking about 5 year survival rates and not actual survival. The US Healthcare system is great at keeping people alive who should have stopped treatment long ago.…
Depending on where you live an ER might be the only place you can go for an urgent medical issue. Was he supposed to wait a month to see a GP or drive across the state to find an Urgent Care?
>I'm sorry if it sounds provocative It is and people have become so wedded to the subjective experience of having a self or of having free will that they can't accept reality. I think Free Will is easier to dismiss as…
