The article doesn’t just mention animal research. Tons of human research is done on men only and then incorrectly assumed to apply to women.

It’s not just about animal testing or stress hormones or testosterone levels. It’s also about levels of estrogen and progesterone. It’s also about things like women’s metabolisms actually performing differently than men’s.

Women respond differently than men to caloric restriction. We respond differently to antidepressants. Neither has been studied sufficiently. Dosing advice for pretty much anything is based on weight and the average male metabolism. And I’m sure there are far more examples that I’m not aware of and even more that the medical establishment is not yet aware of. This has major implications for women’s health and survival.

I’m not saying don’t do the research or even not to do it on a simpler model first. I’m saying don’t extrapolate from men to women without actually doing research on women. I’m saying don’t stop after you’ve done research on men or male animals. The state of medicine for women is much poorer than for men because of decades of NOT including women in studies and then making incorrect assumptions when applying the results.
Despite the fact that Bentham is the first name that comes into mind when speaking on utilitarianism, John Stuart Mill pushed the boundaries of it and actually addressed what utility is and how can it be measured. As article implies, the utility of a thing should be measured for each individual so that the person extract more happiness from it. I strongly suggest to read Mill’s utilitarianism if someone is looking more information about this topic.
2-3 apps per driver is huge; that might mean 5-6 apps on the market, more than enough to provide fierce competition and keep prices low.
No, that reasoning would hold only if the total amount of resources to divide between people would be static. That is not the case and so growth is good.
Millennials are typically defined as an age-cohort. So yes, you could apply that term to denote a certain generation of Africans, no problem. It may not be useful or confusing, but there's technically nothing wrong with it.

One of the key traits (stereo)typically discussed in the media w.r.t. millennials is a sense of entitlement, growing up with technology. And to a lesser extent, millennials tend to be more understanding of the importance of the environment and diet.

That happens to reflect exactly the article's premise: agriculture is seen as something that poor, illiterate rural people do. Whereas millennials in Africa are urbanising, have mobile phones, are literate and went to school and are looking for a manufacturing or services job, not an agricultural one. The concept of the millennial translates just fine to the African context, in the case of this article.

The average age in Africa is 24, yet the average farmer is 60. That's where millennials come in, reshaping the idea of farming, and giving it a modern touch. That's what the article is about.

> Aren't these generational terms relevant to the USA only?

I mean, even if you disagreed that an African millennial made sense as a concept... there's hundreds of millions of people living in countries with very similar concepts. (e.g. much of Europe, Canada, Australia, Japan etc). It's not a term exclusive to the US.
> “But the reality is that most hikikomori are people who can’t get back into society after straying off the path at some point,” he says. “They have been forced into withdrawal. It isn’t that they’re shutting themselves away — it’s more like they’re being forced to shut themselves away.”

Articles need some narrative, and I get that it's also trying to put the spotlight on a different variant of a phenomenon.

But I feel it's going too strong on the opposite direction. There must be a sizeable number of Hikikomori who cut themselves willingly from traditional society because they feel there's nothing there for them. Others, like quoted, are forced into it.

I'm sure the reality of it is pretty mixed and varied, especially as the definition has been broaden to encompass people who don't get out of their homes out of pure necessity.

I have very similar feelings about this site at least recently. There appears to be significant effort from moderators here to squash outside opinions, I've noticed a lot of posts that I've commented on have become flagged even though they did not break the rules and in fact had positive responses from other users (not downvoted).
Nitrogen narcosis is usually called "drunkenness of depth" (if I translate this correctly), because it produce effect like you are drunk.

I've seen and heard many stories of experienced divers that would do silly things due this effect; that is why you always have to have partner with you and the rest of the crew near by.

This effect is highly dependent of person and I've seen guys goes beyond 40m without getting this at all.
Morse theory can be used to prove that certain solutions exist/don’t exist.

A simple example is: you have an angular robot arm that can turn 360 degrees. Can you come up with a smooth algorithm that moves it from any current position to any other position? Morse theory answers this because your configuration space is a torus.

Edit: Maybe one could say that Morse theory is the intermediate value [1] theorem for manifolds on steroids.

> they are actually doing is whatever someone tells them.

This it not how it works in real life. Normally the situation is that a rich narcissist has an "idea" on the level of a 5-year old, say, "let's go to the moon".

The narcissist then thinks he is a genius, hires people, calls a lot of meetings to extract actual ideas from his employees.

The narcissist then proceeds to go to conferences and investors, passing the actual ideas off as his own.

He still has no clue how to build things (in the case of the moon the Saturn V).

But the general populace remembers Kennedy and not von Braun (who in turn may have taken credit from others).

This is how it is in the software industry, "decisions" are mostly post facto credit stealing.

It may be different in other areas.

The article is quite optimistic about peoples' abilities to transform their newfound boredom into something creative, but as in the example with books, this digital minimalist "healthy" boredom also has its prerequisites to make it work.

By likening social media use to addiction, only the negative effects are highlighted. For example, the waiting line in the supermarket used to be full of aggression, it has become much calmer with phones, and some people might even revert to alcohol or other destructive habits when they feel uncomfortable with being alone. In some cases, distraction can even be beneficial, as playing Tetris reduces PTSD and flashbacks. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/tetris-shown-to-l...

Perhaps a better metaphor might be travelling: When I travel too often and move aroung all the time, there is a certain "up in the air" - emptyness - it feels as if I don't ever arrive anywhere, and I spend far too much time in airports and in transit. When I travel less often, it is easier to enjoy the ride and the experience has a positive impact.

I agree, but this isn't an argument against the obsolence of expiring passwords regularly.

I disagree. We, as a society, discriminate on age in myriad structural ways because we believe that it is beneficial for both individuals and society as a whole.

Maybe there are exceptional 6-year-olds who should be able to smoke, drive automobiles, and collect Social Security. But I see no reason for our culture to permit them to do so, even if they landed a majority of the Electoral College.

Quite.

For most of time, up to the 20th century, growth was not an expected part of economic activity. Neither expected or required. GDP didn't even get dreamed up until the 1930s, and its inventor warned against it being used as a measure of the success of a nation.

Of course it was soon used as a measure of success, comparison and an easy concept for headlines and politicians. So the irrational belief that infinite growth on a finite planet was not only possible but desirable and necessary became the modern religion. :)

No, I'm saying the OS needs an information model as a first-class citizen. But since you brought up data corruption: This hypothetical OS could also benefit from having transaction support up in application space -- to avoid data corruption -- something most "modern" programs don't even have, even though most file systems do.

To be fair, I do think the database needs a way to edit the contents of a field using your favorite text editor. But we've got a pgfs plugin that uses FUSE to make the database accessible as a filesystem as well.

However when i write a bigger text I would keep re-reading and correcting it. For a message like this that’s fine but it gets a bit harder with longer texts. I just try to cope with it though instead of giving in.

The problem here for readers is probably not the tweeting but the rambling in the tweets (incoherent text)

You don't go through passport control in Norway unless you are departing or arriving from a non-Schengen country. So flying between Copenhagen and Oslo, for example, doesn't involve passport control.

Work permits in Norway used to be 3 valid for 3 years at a time, but they've had to shorten this to 2 years due to EU requirements. If you get permanent residency you also have to renew it every two years by making an appointment and visiting the police station. Luckily they don't charge you for renewals of permanent residency, just the initial application.

But that's not the case for PC games. So alternate store that charges less is obvious optimization.

Funding retirement in an inverted age pyramid is not a theoretical problem. Germany is facing this problem already and it is going to get much, much worse in the next 10 years.

We've (mostly) lost the idea of a content creator just creating content for the joy of sharing it, and transmitting it on their own through their own website using their own rules.

Who says they don't have incomes? Let's say they don't have incomes, who says the solution is becoming a farmer as opposed to performing any other form of work?

In 2019, being a farmer without modern machinery is pretty much the least valuable form of labor one could perform, unless we're talking about very specific foods that need special care, i.e. not the kind of food that actually feeds a population.

Only narrow-minded "back-to-the-roots" westerners who idealize farming could come up with such a non-solution. Thankfully, the Chinese who idealize money are building factories in Africa to turn that labor into real economic value.

Whether or not this is the start is not so important, but remember it's been a while since the last one, and it's a common thing to occur in the economy, or any other ecological system.

It's also something that has an important role. Investors at some point need to decide which businesses are viable, which are not. Workers need to consider career changes. Corporate entities need to consider which projects are worthwhile. All those kinds of decisions are put to the test when not everything can be given a long horizon.

Finally, there is a twist this time. We've been running a financial experiment with few parallels over the last decade or so.
