Honestly, we had no issue with it. It's quite sad as we were already prepared to offer much more. One guy had quite a long resume. Twice my work experience but asking for half the salary. It hit me in the existential feels.

I don't think 10% jumps are effective. Part of the problem is some people are focused solely on that 10% incremental salary growth. They bounce around in bad companies willing to match that. They don't develop the skills needed to get a 30% or even a 100% leap. (they were being paid ~$15k annually, so a 100% leap is very plausible)
Just as important is the ease of using trains but, in some cases, this just doesn't happen.

I would often travel from St. Louis to Chicago for business and would think nothing of taking the train but I quickly realized how unreliable it was. A cold day froze the tracks making my five-hour ride a twelve hour one. When commercial traffic refused to let us pass through a couple of times, waiting for a pass through was the straw that broke that back and no longer think once about taking the train when my car gets me there just as fast at a more convenient time.
My first 3D card was a Diamond Stealth II S220 (?), which used the Verite 2200, the second generation chip

It ran vQuake, and it had a DirectX driver so it also played most other 3D games at the time, assuming they supported Direct3D

I liked it because you didn't need an additional 2D card, like with the 3Dfx (it basically layered the 3D image onto a 2D image with an extra cable)

However, the Verite had another flaw: it was slow in one of the VGA modes, 320x200x256 if I remember. So games like Doom would run like crap!

Imagine that, you buy a card to make Quake faster, but them Doom runs slower. DOS games were dead at that point, but it was still dissappointing.
Whoa! That's crazy. I did not even know about MSX DOS! Thanks!

I got a System 76 Oryx Pro. It's not as sexy as the mac but at the time Macbooks could not have 32 GB of ram, which was a major disappointment for me. Pop Os is great, its pretty much for Ubuntu with some tweaks.

Thermals are generally not a issue but sometimes the fans can be a little noisey. And of course due to the very beefy hardware and linux power management not being the most advanced battery life is at most 3 hours in my experience.

But if performance is important I would definitely recommend picking one up.
Let's be clear who's being "pirated" from. Elsevier and Springer don't pay for the research, or for the rights to the paper, or even the peer review.

The only compensation they're giving anyone is "exposure". Given how little that is worth these days, the validity of the copyright assignments they hold are questionable at best.

> I still don't understand why US decided to support horrible unstable dictatorship in Pakistan instead of biggest democracy in the world in the past.

Current India was born as the Socialist democratic Republic of India and had closer relations to the former USSR than the US, so naturally, the US aligned itself with Pakistan.

> Unless I am mistaken India was always a victim in aggression of its neighbors

You are mistaken. India has been an aggressor as much as a victim. Of course that's not to say the scale of aggression was like colonial powers but India is definitely not doodh-ka-dhula.

> If India put their sht (economy) together, toughened/equipped up their military I think this behavior would stop.

No. India needs to get its basics right -- Food, health care, education. The problem is /not/ the economy. If the so called 'educated' population of India actually made use of their education to participate in their democracy they would realize that economically speaking, India is not in a terribly bad state, however, the standard of life is sht as you put it, because very less focus has been put on the basics.

In the history of the world there hasn't been any single successful empire or country which got to where it was while ignoring the health, nutrition and education of its people.

While metabolic health is almost certainly related to intelligence, what makes you think it's the defining factor? Wouldn't that mean all diabetics were less intelligent than non-diabetics? Also, almost all children have better metabolic health than almost all adults, and even their fluid intelligence is lower up to a certain age.

I do agree that increasing intelligence is probably very difficult. However, there are probably some limiting factors set by evolution (amount of energy consumed, heat produced, etc) which might be overcome through modern methods.

Understanding Copyfraud: Public Domain Images and False Claims of Copyright
by Chris Needham

Copyright fraud or copyfraud—when museums misrepresent or restrict rights in ways that go against public domain copyright law—continues to be a widespread practice even in the years following the 1999 Bridgeman Art Library, LTD. v. Corel Corp. court case. To help clarify this situation, the author first reviews the relevant copyright issues, then considers some of the problems that copyfraud creates in universities, publishing houses, and museums. In conclusion, he explores the ways museums, supported by their librarians and visual resources managers, have recently changed their approach to copyright and copyfraud, and the ways in which this is transforming scholarship and allowing scholars and librarians to better serve the public.

This is a nice example showing how people don't really know what is going on, wealth seems to behave in very mysterious ways.

But, in each step you are clearly adding more and more context along with the physical item itself, context that must itself have some physical encoding.

My point is mainly that I insist that physical reality is all there is, and if some events are hard to assign to any one physical thing that just means we are looking for subtle correlations.

During a depressive episode after the suicide of a friend I compiled a check list of very basic things that I noticed had helped in everyday life. I wrote it down when I noticed that I couldn't remember the items reliably (or when it didn't occur to me to think of them). I carried it in my pocket for some while.

It contained very basic things, like questions if I had eaten enough, slept enough, whether I spent time outdoors (fresh air/sun), had met friends recently or exercised recently and corrective actions for each item (and yes, "eat something" was on it). Some items were accompanied by comments like "exercise will only help for the next day or two, do not skip for longer than that".

Another thing that helped surprisingly well was having a shower, shaving and dressing up. Basically the opposite of letting oneself go.

And in really bad moments, jamming/DoS-ing my brain by some sort of meaningless meditation (sitting, breathing and counting so that no other thoughts appeared anymore) helped as well.

The best thing is that I haven't had to use the list in a long time now and hopefully never will have to again.

Because that's not how evolution works. Depending on the environment, initial conditions, boundary conditions, some traits may arise and some may not simply because of random chance. Evolution doesn't have a goal, if something survives because of some mutation and propagates, then it might be seen in future generations.

Look at this thread on the Evernote user forum. It's been running from 2013 to 2018 about how Evernote handles list formatting. https://discussion.evernote.com/topic/41948-why-is-formattin...

Why would they do that? the impossible burgers cost more. And besides the cholesterol they have almost identical nutrition facts.
My argument is that the unfairness comes from the fact that some people are able to make money off of natural resources (e.g. land) that they did not create or (in many cases) earn and are able to exclude others from doing so. This then leads to a situation in which many people do not have access to natural resources with which to make their own living and therefore their only choice is to work for people who do have those resources. In that sense their state of being employed by others instead of themselves is not voluntary.

You are wrong here [1], Thatcher threatened Mitterrand to nuke Buenos Aires if he doesn't give her codes to Exocet missiles sold by French to Argentinians earlier. Just to be clear - she was stating she happily kills hundreds of thousands of civilians in a horrible way just because 20 Navy sailors died during war (personally I think its pretty clear she was bluffing, but maybe Mitterrand knew something on her that made him bulge). Calling her 'Iron lady' is insult to all proper ladies of this world

Since were on the subject of proposing insane and impractical solutions to global warming ive been contemplating ways we could somehow still use up all the oil and yet not contribute to global warming.

One crazy idea is that we build a space elevator out of carbon nanotubes, and then make a core component of it act as a pump to suck up oil and water from sea level all the way up into the outer regions of our atmosphere and then we run the steam powered electrical generators up there and send the electricity back down the elevator.

Now this might sound crazy but lets seriously consider what we have to gain by this.

1. Physics are totally on our side in space. In a steam powered generator, the steam turns one side of the turbine and then must escape out to ensure too much back pressure doesnt build up and grind things to a halt. Along with this steam we also expel out the greenhouse gases generated from burning the fuel with it.

The thing is once we expel the steam and CO2 it goes out in a mixture and we cant really do a whole lot to sustainably trap it, store it until it cools off, and just reuse it, and all the while figure out some way to separate out the greenhouse gases and try to do something with it so we dont have to just release it into the air.

The thing is, burning oil to produce steam in space solves a lot of problems like this for us due to the physical properties how things work in the vacuum of space vs where there is no atmospheric pressure.

1. If you expel a mixture of steam and C02 into the cold vacuum space the water vapor will rapidly turn into liquid and then solid while the greenhouse gases remain gaseous. This leads to easier methods of filtration and water recycling.

The C02 is forced out into space and the water stays to be sent back down.

2. Wait, sent back down?

Yes because to make the pump work up without too much energy being required to suck it up against the power of Earth's gravitational pull (think of this like trying to suck a think milkshake through a straw a mile long) its best to utilize the downward pull of gravity to aide us in the process. Thus creating a vacuum.

3. When we run out of oil we can send up nuclear fuel next and just shoot the spent highly radioactive fuel that's no longer useful to us into space too.

4. The electricity generated can be used to power the electromagnetic elevator up and down.

5. We'll need a space elevator to make solar sails work anyways. We might as well utilize it to generate energy in every we can.

6. If any of this manages to blow up on us the explosion happens hella far away from us.

7. Surface level renewable power sources like wind, hydroelectric, and solar are all things we can utilize effectively assuming we build it in the most optimal place. (my best guess is somewhere in the ocean just south of Alaska)

You said it significantly better than I did. Absolutely correct in almost everything you said from my perspective.

The only caveat I would make is that I think we're farther from the cliff than people tend to say -- that's not to say we shouldn't do things to mitigate our impact on the environment, I absolutely believe we should, but only that I don't see it as dire as some make it out to be.
I think there's a fallacy there: the joint assumptions that evolution has "already happened" and has produced fully optimized systems.

If we adopt a flawed "evolution as agent" model, there is zero evidence that it has tried everything, or even most things, in order to optimize species.

If we adopt a more accurate model, evolution doesn't optimize or produce optimized systems. It can (but does not always) produce reliable (as in reproduction/survival) systems. There are plenty of ways Klotho could be beneficial but not produced by selection: mutations which increase production of this chemical may have occurred but had negative effects on fitness, or may have happened to occur along with other mutations with negative effects; there may not be any mutations which increased production (it's tempting to think of e.g. hormone levels as "knobs" for which there are mutations that turn up/down output, but that metaphor completely fails in many cases); beneficial mutations to increase Klotho production may be possible but not have occurred in nature because of chance or complexity of changes required to actually manifest the "right" change.

I think this is right. It is possible to sell on your own site. Luxury goods do it right now. For example, if you want to buy perfume directly from Chanel, you cannot do it through Amazon. My sense is that Chanel wouldn't give Amazon product even if they asked for it.

That said, I think this approach is best combined with voting for and supporting candidates and social movements which will break up big tech and/or socialize their assets.
The problem is it doesn’t address the underlying reason why your hormones are high or low.

It might be for some important reason to keep your body in homeostasis while dealing with a different problem.

Other literature I’ve read suggests that, for this very reason, prolonged use of adaptogens (including maca, rhodiola, ginseng) is inadvisable.

In my own case, I suspect it may have led to problems (e.g., caused HPA axis to slow down further) after a while, having shown benefits in the beginning.

Long story short: the body always fights back.
This was a fun puzzle, but I came to a roadblock here too.

I have to confess I'm confused by what I believe might be the "local hypothesis block" mentioned above. The confusion is somewhat greater because the blocks don't seem to have any attached name or description, so it's not clear what they're meant to be doing.

Up until task 5 in session 2, all the solutions are pretty trivial. But I can't work out what sort of wiring that block implies (for the record, the task is "given (A->B, B->C), prove (A->C)").

It's really not clear to me what the "notch" at the top of that block implies, or how it might be used.

I think there should be at least one "hand-holding" solution for the first use of each block type. Even the papers linked to don't describe the intended semantics of each block.

Any hints here?

I definitely agree that it is legitimate for an individual to trade off certain benefits of a job for others. I think the issue arrises when they either do not have the opportunity to actually make that decision (e.g. if all of the jobs they are able to get lack one of those traits) or if the overall split of benefits between the employer and employee is skewed (e.g. the business becomes more profitable but the increase in profit is not split with the employees).
