Sorry, WaPo.
The article reads as if the WSJ just needs a pretense to push their social justice viewpoints. They really are not going to give the Gebru story a rest. I wonder why Bezos doesn't stop them, after all Amazon is also a…
I guess he was certain that anybody so well versed in the 80ies cult products would have to be a good person.
A better comparison would be to say "the hottest 10 days were all this July. There seems to be a trend here". Then it would be obvious that it was simply the hottest July, so of course all days were comparatively hot.…
What about the other months, they should also all be hitting records? In any case, I give them their record. My main issue was with the comparison to averages. Often they even call it "anomaly" which may technically be…
Are years the appropriate units for such comparisons, though? Anyway I give them their record, my main gripe is really the talk about averages. It's just plain misleading or at least not as informative as it could be.
I wish such articles would not always compare with averages. It is perfectly normal if sometimes measurements are above averages and sometimes below. At the very least, they should also give a range. Not saying there is…
Somehow there is little reaction when white people are being shot, though (or killed in general, like the white guy who died in the same way as Georg Floyd sometime before). I think there is more to it than just…
I don't think that is the case, unless you want to claim black people have always been this racist. I can say that for me it makes dealing with black people more difficult, because I have to be more on guard. I have to…
Do Indians also count as Asians in those statistics (like 40% of Google)?
I guess one problem with the virtual world in RPO is that it is centralized, and therefore people are fighting each other to control it.
Seems I misremebered it, thanks. I found two different estimates right now, too, one for ~1.6%, one for ~0.4%. Sometimes real estate the owners live in themselves is not counted? With 1.6% the odds of having a…
Why shouldn't the house count, though?
MSCI world hat positive returns in all but three years since 2007: https://www.msci.com/documents/10199/178e6643-6ae6-47b9-82be... Granted the -40% in 2008 were brutal, but even that would have been compensated in a few…
In my country (Germany) afaik a little over 10% of the population are at least millionaires. So I think the likelihood to have a millionaire living next door is quite high.
"If Read suffered from poor health during his working years or required long-term care, his estate would be a fraction of what it was." So don't bother saving or trying to get rich, because you might become ill and have…
I would imagine most Ethereum miners are pretty well off by now, so the "working class" analogy is really off. Also "the ruling class" can not really force their rules on others. Everybody participating in cryptocoins…
There was not that much context to the story to begin with, so it is unclear how awful he really was.
They seemed very keen to communicate high risk things, though.
NYT is paywalled, but all articles about it that I have read are a mix of scary anecdotes without statistics ("Johnny was unable to remember his biology lessons" - how often does that happen" and statistics about "x%…
Then please also wear a tinfoil hat, that would make me feel more secure, too. I think it reflects the sunlight and thereby prevents global warming, that will otherwise kill us all.
You fit into the "uninformed" group, as there is actually little risk for children.
Thanks!
I said they felt he is awful. Maybe he felt they are awful, too. It is a thing that happens in human relationships, that people end up disliking each other. We have only heard one side of the story here. It is a pretty…
No "drinking for the planet" then? Disappointing.
