0.05% is not insanely low for something as specific as sexual harassment. If 1 in 2000 is insanely low, how much would 'low' be, and how much would 'average' be? No environment should deal with whatever you think the…
I get what you're saying about it feeling quite tiny; however, look at it this way: that's like one active website for every 15 people on the planet!
It's not about what's right or wrong about Pocket.
Winning isn't strictly about money.
You don't need money to report to authorities, only to battle over in court.
But they do influence, and influence can make a difference. If not through twitter, how else would/should politicians connect with people? edit: I say this as someone who doesn't use twitter; it still seems like it has…
Having left his job more than 15 years ago, is there any chance that he's simply not aware of the actual methods they're using? I know in other fields the ability to do concept searching (via LSI and other techniques),…
I was commenting on the mindset one would have to take the positions you have, which is why I didn't address individual points. I guess that was lost on you. edit: fine, apparently people get downvoted if they're not…
I'm not going to nitpick about any individual discussion points you guys have going on, but I'll chime in to say that your approach to thinking about men/women in our society seems...disingenuous. We can imagine utopia…
Isn't the point of that comment precisely to discourage someone who might otherwise think the task to be smaller than it is? It's okay to discourage if it helps people understand scope.
This is good advice; do you think most companies are against side projects, or is it just unlucky that you've worked for so few that are okay with it? I guess it would surprise/disappoint me if the majority of companies…
That's a slippery slope; if my neighbors plant tulips and I HATE tulips, I don't get to sue for damages, even if the tulips weren't there when I moved in.
Sure, our current statistics show your statement to be true. But, I think many people are alarmed at the trajectory of hate and intolerance in the US. Also, being murdered is the worst thing that could happen, and maybe…
I think it was quite obviously meant to be figurative.
Correct that they were not identical, but they were quite close; five lines that looked like a 'w'.
What? My point is that I drew the same doodle for different words, and for each word it put forth a different _first_ guess. The first guess for each doodle was the word that was provided -- if this software was…
I agree and believe that it's pre-programmed in some ways. I took the test twice, and in the first set I had 'zigzag' and in the second set I had 'stairs'. I drew the exact same doodle for each and for each it guessed…
Your lazy form of swearing only involves using them as adjectives/adverbs. Something being 'fucking lazy' might not add more than something being 'lazy', but something being 'fucked' is an altogether different use.
But...those things aren't driving the economy. Those examples are mostly driving the profits of credit card companies; if people saved more responsibly and used their money responsibly, the could likely (and…
Sure, but ironically a different kind of unintentional groupthink happens in this case. Some people read "I'm going to be downvoted" and...consciously or not...want to upvote it.
I don't think that's true. I think that the average number of flips before _stopping_ might be 3, but it doesn't become more likely to get HT simply because you're also looking for HH (or vice versa).
The people closest to him may never have nor look for more information.
Who says that people "don't give a shit"? People disagreeing with your opinions, and down-voting your posts, is not necessarily a sign that things have changed or that the down-voters are cruel. Unpopular posts have…
Would it be possible to artificially delay the world by 15ish ms? A person would have to fully have a headset on (so it'd be more like VR than AR), but perhaps it could deliver a time-delayed view of the world only once…
I may be missing something, but I think the person you responded to was expressing that they fear you are setting up that exact situation: that there is no room for failure.
