He's also dead, so it's not like he is personally benefitting from our enjoyment of his music anyway.
In regards to your edit, avocados and chili peppers both originate in Mexico. Guacamole was a native dish so it's been around for centuries, but the modern version with onions and cilantro couldn't have existed until…
This is something I struggle with, as someone who worked really hard in school but has become less productive as a professional. In school there are well-defined deadlines and discrete tasks with extrinsic rewards in…
What makes you think hiring managers will suddenly prioritize "quirky sexy hipsters" if those traits aren't desirable for the role? You seem to be assuming users on the hiring side will use it the same way the average…
Yes, the Unabomber was a mathematician-gone-terrorist who had a manifesto of sorts published decrying industrialization and technological profress. His academic career was pretty short. There's a Wikipedia page if you…
Yup it's basically reddit for the alt-right and banned subs... not exactly the place most people want to be
The request was for a reddit alternative, not an alt-right reddit
Same. As much as I would like to move off Facebook, my friends are worth more to me than that. I could still communicate with them if I didn't have it, but it would take much more effort and I'm not the type to reach…
Definitely. People are reluctant to buy $1 or $2 mobile apps that would be really useful, even though they would never notice the money was gone. Just because most apps are free. Also, most people lose more than they…
People make group chats in FB messenger. If you don't have messenger, you don't get to be in the group chat.
The article also mentions the pedestrian as "a woman walking", so it's not clear whether they are referring to a cyclist as a pedestrian, or whether they are getting different information and actually think it was a…
The video says bicyclist and shows a bicycle, while the written article says pedestrian and said the car hit "a woman walking"... I'm confused as to why there is a contradiction, but considering the video shot of the…
It's moreso that the inverse is true. Not working hard will almost certainly not lead to success (unless your family is rich enough to where you can just "buy" more success). Working hard will not necessarily lead to…
How convenient that they forgot to use it on the one action they never want you to perform
Most of this stuff is part of common CS curriculums though. The real answer is just that you have to take linear algebra as a separate class. It's not supposed to be all the math for CS
It's even easier when kids live close enough that it's a one minute walk down the street. There are pros and cons to living in the suburbs but it's great for kids to be able to play and socialize with other kids
It's a shared responsibility. The NFL has devoted a lot of effort to hiding the reality of what the audience is watching. Now that we know fully how dangerous it is, it's our responsibility to stop watching it.
It won't change quickly enough, people will simply stop playing it, and eventually stop watching it as well. I've already stopped watching NFL football (mostly, it's hard to completely cut off from a team I've followed…
Football players purposely spear other players with their helmets with full force. They had to make rules against doing this, and it still happens, although with less frequency. They are not using their helmets as a…
Agreed. In my anecdotal experience, imprecise language and simple logical mistakes made in conversation is a pretty frequent source of miscommunication and minor interpersonal conflict. But I can't really tell people to…
Facebook isn't new anymore so it's not cool to like it. I also find it vastly more useful than other social media sites.
That's my experience. I use it to keep in touch with friends and family, and to keep on top of events being held in my community and by my friends. I'm not sure what I would do without the Event and Group parts of…
Correct, the CNN classifier is definitely supervised learning.
I graduated college a year ago and I'm not sure if I've ever in my life been asked to manually compute a square root (except for a perfect square integer).
I don't think very many people are interested in achieving their theoretical mental limit any more than their physical limit. What would be the purpose of that? Diminishing returns applies to nearly every endeavor.…
