Sure, but it _does_ matter _what_ credentials were leaked, and these creds didn't secure anything particularly critical in the grand scheme of things. Sure it might suck a bit for Atlassian employees who wanted to keep…
I've got a friend who went into the trades instead of going to university, he (correctly) recognised that what he was passionate about wouldn't even pay for the degree (composing music) so he figured he'd do it on the…
Hmm, I am not a botanist, but since watermelons have seeds, and botanically speaking seeds are in the fruit, aren't watermelon fruit botanically speaking?
I think it's pretty normal in most developed countries to have operations happening 24/7, in some there's rules requring extra pay for saturdays and sundays, and a lot have weekly per-worker limits on the number of…
Yeah probably should have double-checked that, thanks. You prompted me to double-check my other claim (that land under cultivation didn't increase) and that was wrong too! According to this it's gone up by about 5x…
I'm thinking if population growth continues to shrink and go negative and automation continues to increase, production will stay constant or even increase, even while population decreases. Which would mean that each…
I think the thing that this article misses is that per capita growth (the thing that's important for people's experienced life satisfaction) can essentially grow a lot further with fewer atoms under cultivation if you…
The thing I don't get about this explanation is that typically (as far as I know) hass avocados are grown in hass avocado plantations. Meaning that while they're technically a mixture of both of the parent plants,…
I've found switching jobs to a company that does a lot of pairing helps a tonne, the other person acts as an accountability partner which helps keep you focused.
Out of curiosity did smart contracts gain new capabilities in the summer of 2020?
I've quite liked that the devices are often rootable/usable without an internet connection in contrast to most other internet of shit. It's probably accidental, or at least an outcome of having to cut development costs…
This image of this guy you're painting doesn't sound anything like Scott Alexander, if anything Scott Alexander is the opposite of "certain he's right"
Yeah but because of regression to the mean everyone has fhe same caliber of engineers
I wonder why the eu didn't suspend the free movement over covid Australia's states did that and it worked out pretty well.
Doesn't worry me too much, presumably conservative religious folk like being conservative and religious so they'll be in their own self made heaven and i'll probably be long gone.
It leads to carnage, sure, but also leads to the United States being a very interesting and dynamic country. If i could live there i would.
Ignoring their conclusion aboutwhat they think it was, it's interesting that _something_ happened in 1971, personally I think it's more likely the opening of trade with china than going off the gold standard. It does a…
Yeah but pol swings between being full if edgy leftists and edgy rightists
I agree with your comment, but that article you linked to it seems to have a couple of odd conclusions. It seems to be calling "keeping them emotionally involved" (using alignment of incentives) to be part of the…
I found it insightful, he wrote it in what appeared to be a refreshingly honest/egoless way he doesn't try to act like he understands everything. I (think) I do understand primaries and such, and while they're better…
Not sure if it's because I might be a bit younger than you, or because I went to school in NZ, but i think it's come full circle, certainly where I went to highschool, the high achievers (people who got university…
When I first heard about this process, it threw me into a bit of a depression: Why try to obtain nice things, if the pleasure/enjoyment from nice things are down-regulated to until they become insignificant? However I…
Good data visualisation of co2 emissions over the last 200 years: https://ourworldindata.org/co2/country/united-kingdom?countr...
Yeah I mean the alternative is taxing the 5-day-a-week workers and transferring the money to unemployed people, who while out of work have their skills languish. 4 day a week work-weeks seem like quite a cost-effective…
I was there from 2015 to 2019 and I don't recall postit note boards being used much. We (tried) to use them for retros, but the postits wouldn't stay stuck to the glass walls in the meeting rooms. The only thing that…
