It is quite strange. One would think a judge would easily throw this out. I mean there is probably not a specific rule I could point to that a high school athlete couldn't ride a bike or a motorcycle in a 400m track run…
Tiktok especially. The only time I have ever seen Tiktok videos is from dating someone younger and watching them engage with Tiktok over their shoulder out of curiosity. To me, it felt like my brain was being scrambled.…
I love LLMs but that sounds like one of the worst ideas I can even think of.
What I find interesting about the covid mRNA vaccine is I remember being sick in March 2020 and I can't remember being sick since. I can remember getting a sniffle at night and waking up fine the next morning a few…
Empiricism and rationalism both tempered by a heavy dose of skepticism. On the other hand, maybe that is some kind of fallacy itself. I almost want to say that "scientific thinking" should be called something else. The…
I assume not only do they believe what they are writing but would believe you and I just don't "get it". To be fair, there are things I am really into that seem just as ridiculous to an outsider/non-connoisseur.…
It is like arguing that the exodus from the rust belt in the late 80s and 90s was good for the cities because it made the cost of housing go down. This is true if we focus entirely on housing cost and basically ignore…
The part missing is that Musk massively over payed for the bloated unprofitable business. I would think Twitter is profitable with the cuts that were made it is just not nearly profitable enough to justify the…
I think it depends on what laptop. Asus laptops have always worked flawlessly for me. I am writing this on an Asus laptop with linux mint. Everything just works perfect out of the box. I could buy three of these laptops…
I never thought of an actual hourglass but I do love the idea too. Something almost ritualistic about it. I have to get one myself.
Ideally, if I had a high school age kid right now I would want them to get a 4 year degree but leave college with zero debt and then also learn to be an electrician. For some, college is an obvious choice. For some, a…
I use to play on Full Tilt with guys from work all the time. Quite often I would be at a table with someone I know and chatting on the side. We wanted to beat each other though for bragging rights so never colluded.…
It was people of a certain age and mindset I think. At the peak before black Friday, it was pretty routine for 3 or 4 people I knew from work to be on Full Tilt at the same time and I only really knew about 15 people at…
The majority of college students are not studying something that falls into these categories though. It is completely absurd we have not built an alternative, online liberal arts 4 year degree that basically cost…
I think the issue is it is a like an old forum but without an "off topic" section. "off topic" with a group of like minded people around a central theme was always something I enjoyed about the old internet forum days.…
The good news is that we have evolved an amazing ability to believe ridiculous narratives as coping strategies so that we aren't frozen by this reality and can still get on with and enjoy life. When ridiculous…
It is very deep in American culture. I think this sums it up when Tocqueville was talking about America not having a true aristocratic class, circa 1830s “In a democracy private citizens see a man of their own rank in…
It is way more than this even. The reserve currency needs to be so liquid that the average person doesn't feel nations buying/selling massive amounts of currency for trade. To believe Bitcoin fits this is to be…
I think this is just a human thing. The way science progresses one funeral at a time seems to apply to more than just science. I am actually learning Unreal engine for artistic purposes but I don't really like games.…
