Like you say, it's just a more intuitive classical analogy for people who don't want to waste good years of their life (like me) to understand the mathematical detail of theoretical physics. The electron doesn't…
I disagree, if we're gonna be hyping up machines for their prowess at "thinking" and being artificially "intelligent" in that soft effusive human way then yeah I think its fair criticism. We already knew from the 50s…
Yeah perhaps, but its really hard to say anything concrete either way
As a theoretical physicist, yes physics could definitely be subjective between different species. Physics is the way HUMANS describe nature to themselves. I don't doubt that it describes some greater nature outside of…
No quite obviously cutting costs increases profit which goes into reinvestment to then generate more profit and so on. It has no relation to prices unless the business happens to be losing customers to competition which…
And in what world is the incentive of cutting costs and price gouging - of necessities no less - aligned with the incentives of the vast majority of mankind who would just like energy, healthcare, housing, public…
I don't see how that quote or the article contradicts the title?
He's beaten nameless king, pre-nerf radahn, melania etc.
the joke's on all of us as long as we continue letting them get away
In that case it would be similarly be helpful if you focused your initial response on a key point of contention rather effusively and ineffectively allude to several. I will keep my reply as focused as possible. You…

Technology wasn't the primary cause in the genocide of the Native Americans. The initial factor was the introduction of plagues to the Americas from the numerous intraspecies transmission that occurred in the old world…
>So, which countries did China liberate from oppression? My friend, what are you babbling about? Did you hallucinate me saying that China is my model of a utopian society? Again. Which countries has China invaded or…
I think this misses the deeper relationship between the Falun Gong and western intelligence agencies, that goes beyond just "pandering to right-wing nuts" after a period of "spontaneous" support from mainstream western…
Which countries has china invaded, illegally or otherwise? Which governments have they toppled, covertly or openly?

I never started talking about income, that was you, and if you can't see the relation between wealth and living standards than maybe it's for the best you don't discuss it at all.
I think its more than "we just found some math that fits the data" in the sense that its not just a case of adding some terms to match an observed curve - for example like with Rayleigh-Jeans' law vs Wein's…
I will reply to the rest with more links when I get time but I'd like to point out your fixation on the bottom 10%. The bottom majority that i specifically mentioned is not that 10%. Wealth inequality is not just a…
>"National wealth" is not a vague notion, it's the product of lots of government workers doing a lot of statistics Wow what a convincing justification for the need to equate the measurement of rising capital within…
Do you think a decades long trend of upward concentration of wealth is remotely equatable to my next door neighbor winning the lottery? Where do you think that money even comes from? >because what other people are…
