A couple years ago I listened to a college course from The Teaching Company called 'Explaining Social Deviance.' It analyzed deviant behavior in a multitude of different societies and contexts, going through history and modern day across the globe, examining what behavior societies found deviant, what they do about it, how they attempt to stop it, etc. When the social scientists researching the topic studied the upper class, they realized that crime could not be classified as 'deviant' in that social context. It was accepted, expected, and universal. Restraint from criminal activity was actually what was deviant.

Despite the fact that white collar crime does more economic damage and even kills more people every year than street crime, it is punished very rarely and then typically only lightly. That's a social issue, and the majority of society are complicit in it, fighting for tougher laws to control the middle and lower class while fighting against substantial penalties for crime committed by the upper class. The Protestant Work Ethic says that hard work, endurance of suffering, and virtuous character is the only way to wealth, so the public presumes that is how the wealthy got wealthy. It is almost never true, however.

No, I think you are the one who is missing the point. This deal a bet on D&D's ability to produce a hit show. Whatever "bad PR" you think this is getting is completely insignificant compared to what Netflix stands to gain from this.

Other than that, I think you are vastly overestimating the number of people who respond negatively to this, their actual responses, and their overall impact on Netflix' bottom line. The main risk here for Netflix is that D&D will produce a bad show, not that a bunch of teenagers from r/gameofthrones will cancel their subscription.
Can someone explain to me what researchers considers "scientific validity" in psychology?

I feel like human behavior will change as culture evolves. For example how people react to a plane hijacking drastically shifted after 9/11. In a similar way the Stanford Prison Experiment probably permanently changed a part of human culture so that it will no longer be replicable (regardless of whether the original setup and results were valid or not).

How do you conduct science when whatever important truth about human behavior you find invalidates the same findings once that knowledge enters popular culture?

It definitely is at least two orders of magnitude too little to stop climate change.
People assume the reducing emissions would stop climate change. Nope, emissions are only related to rate of change not absolute value. Reducing emissions by 90% would only slow down the change, it reducing 99% would actually stop it, and it would need to be about 100% to slowly reverse the effects of what has been done by the time humanity gets there.

> The kind of people that have guns are in more in favor of fascism and army rule than those who don't. So all it takes to get them on the side of the opressors it's to sell it to them as army control, as opposed to "big government" control.

I feel like you have never talked to a gun owner before. Though they may lean towards the pro police/pro military side, they absolutely would not bow to the government implementing some kind of mass martial law.

Lastly, our military swears an oath to the people and the constitution, not the government. Every Soldier, Sailor, Airman, Marine, and Guardsman is bound by oath to refuse unlawful orders. Any hint of stuff like you're talking about would lead to mass revolt within military ranks themselves. Militias would form, and armaments would be taken from the military's caches to launch a resistance.
And if we had the technology to read the brain we would demand to read everyones brain 24/7
I've worked in a lot of different languages, from ones that work the way I prefer all the way to Python-style languages where anything is a predicate and there are a bunch of semi-arbitrary rules about what qualifies as "false." This isn't a lack of familiarity talking.

Regarding your examples, having an optional sequence is probably not the correct move anyway. Is there actually a semantic difference between no sequence and an empty sequence? If not, the variable should be non-optional. If so, then glossing over those differences by writing `if x` to implicitly check both conditions is unclear. Not sure what you're referring to with get() in a dictionary.

I understand that good Python style is considered to be one where you take advantage of the language's notion of truthiness, but I disagree with its whole approach.
I think the apps don't help themselves; if it said something along the lines of "You need to turn around - you can do so safely by <making a massive loop over a bridge>" this would inform people of the need to turn around and tell them how to do so in the event that they cannot do so safely simply by throwing a handbrake turn at speed this very second.

As it is, they sometimes even obscure the fact that they're guiding the user to turn around. I've definitely found myself guided to turn around via an awkward route in the past and found myself surprised when I realised that's what the game was.

If someone went out one saturday and gave 20 random people (or immigrants) a heart attack, it would be too. A huge amount of resources are already spent on things like preventing flu deaths. We just all agree it's the smart thing to do, for reasons you cited.

It's not evidence to not ignore gun violence, it's evidence to put as much effort into prevention as we do for e.g. flu and disease.
Nothing to investigate now i assume.
If this results in the collapse of civilization, it will definitely be worse than any of the things I listed (none of which resulted in the collapse of civilization).

If.

There's two ways to try to analyze this. One is to look from a 2019-centric perspective, where we know that nuclear war didn't cause the collapse of civilization, but we don't know whether climate change will. From that perspective, "might" looks worse than "definitely didn't". But I think that's kind of an unfair comparison.

The other way to try to compare is to look at how likely it looked when you didn't know the outcome. That's kind of subjective, so I can't really argue with your opinion if you're evaluating things the second way. To me, though, having been in both places, the 1980s frightened me considerably more.

(There may be a stage-of-life thing, too. I was 18 in 1980. Maybe the danger that you see around that age is the danger that you fear the most.)

Anyway, those are just some thoughts. I can't prove you wrong... but I sure hope you are.
I liked the original Doom and Doom II back in the day. But it seems that I played them differently than other people, since both the 2016 Doom, and the advice given in this article, eliminates my style of game play entirely. I never played much of the 2016 Doom game as a result – it just wasn’t fun for me. I can certainly accept that it deserved the acclaim it got, since it allowed the gameplay which other people experienced with the original Doom. But not my gameplay style.

The article talks about “If I want my friend to fight in the arena” and gives “One way path, with the drop down” as one possible solution. I absolutely abhor arena fights, especially with auto-closing doors or a drop down. I would always try to trigger as few enemies as possible, and would always retreat to fight them safely if possible. Why would you design levels which makes it impossible to play in this style, if some people prefer it? Why would you design a level to force a specific play style, even though they might not enjoy it?
There's zero evidence of this.
I was thinking more in terms of artificial geothermal. The time constant for a sphere of bedrock to cool off goes as the square of the radius, and can easily be made to be many years. These would be very large installations, of course.
> It's extremely hard to feel any sort of sympathy for those people

It's very easy for me. Compassion is for all people, not just those you perceive to be nice. I think the inability or extreme difficulty to have compassion towards fellow humans, as you've described here, is a major problem in America today.

We must all work towards a better future by understanding why bad people were bad in the past. This would enable us to build a better future where fewer bad things happen. But you're not going to understand why Epstein was the way he was if you hate him so much you're not going to feel any compassion to someone presumably as tortured as him. By making him into a monster that everyone wanted to die in the first place, then we'll constantly be faced with Epsteins in the future.

So you remove all the traditional services from the OS "definition", and roll your owns (in one particular context). Don't worry, soon enough some people will be tired of reinventing the wheel each in their own corner, and what you call "a market for intra container licenses" (potentially in the form of free commoditized open-source licensed components -- but that is not really new for that comparison, because truly free open-source distro already exist; you don't have to use RHEL) will exist, simply because it makes absolutely no economical sense that everybody redevelops or even just manages everything all the time.

> Companies don't use debt to buy stock.

Sure they do.

Edit: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-08-08/companies...

By the way, the claim “Taking on the debt to do that would depress the stock price“ doesn’t seem correct. The influence of leverage on valuation is complex and depends on the cost of debt and equity, tax shielding considerations, the increase in risk due to the financial leverage... and essentially on what the money is going to be used for.
Fwiw, I also had something of a "why" moment in my life - and after a lot of soul-searching, it was establishing a map (flowchart) of values that helped me feel oriented. It guides my "why" for a lot of things, including why I choose to still be a live.

If you're life has become meaningless, perhaps the solution is to give it your own meaning.
According to people on the TMC forums (so take with a grain of salt) Tesla's motors only cost $350-400. If that's true, they're basically perfect already. It's the batteries which drive cost and weight.
This helped me too. It was combination of desk edge and sleeping on the hand that was causing it.

How to Get a Personal Loan with a Bad Credit Score Below 620
I basically just use 6.

1.6 is the factor everyone talks about (approximation of 1.609), but it has 2 significant figures. To make mental calculations easier/quicker I use its reciprocal, 0.621, which I approximate with 0.6, which has only one significant figure, 6.

Instead of multiplying by 1.6 you would divide by 0.6, which basically amounts to dividing by 6 and then moving the decimal point to someplace plausible.

55 mi / 6 = about 9, so 90 km (actual answer is 88.5)

Going the other way:

80 km * 6 = 480, so 48 mi (actual answer is 49.7)

If you can't remember whether to multiply or divide, just remember multiplying a number by 0.6 makes it smaller, which you would do if going to miles (which are bigger so there are fewer of them). And dividing by 0.6 makes a number bigger, so you must be going to km (which are smaller so there are more of them).
In the manufacturing process you have several methods that are used each with their own issues. Photo-lithography suffers from diffraction at the edges of features. Chemical processes undercut, overcut, and generally move around. They eat away faster at edges because of surface space and eat along different crystal lattice vectors at different rates. Plasma processes are effectively a hose of charged particles and have a sort of Gaussian distribution vs location of particle impact depending on your focus. And during the whole process, diffusion is trying to move everything around to boot. These effects exist at all scales, but when you get to IC scales, the effects can be dominant.

Check out endless-sphere.com. There are people there doin home-built motors and designing controllers. 99% of the content is just people messing around with their bicycles or arguing over silly things, but there are a few very highly technical people.

Also there is a open source motor controller called VESC from Vedder Electronics.

http://vedder.se/2015/01/vesc-open-source-esc/

It's a modern controller with FOC modes and such things.

Originally designed for electric skateboards it has gone through many revisions and is a viable commercial product. The developer has a official vendor for buying the design, but there are many clones and variations of different prices and quality.

There are people on endless-sphere working on variations to scale it up for larger EVs.
My intuition is that the remote and unlikely chance of those designs being needed would make the calculable benefits so small that they would not be worth the trade-offs, both in the immediate construction costs, but also the costs of everyone actually using a building designed with too-long walkways, non-optimized layouts, etc. over the entire projected lifetime of the building.
I once had a similar experience, except it was the muscles in my back, between my shoulder blades, that were causing great pain.

Yeah, I don't get it. Your solution is better in near every way. The if statement should be doing a type check, not a value check. And it is redundant since the math will do it.

Right?
Yeah it's not actually that bad, the base-12 system helps you out. You multiply the feet by 3, divide the inches by 4, add, multiply by 10. Optionally add 1.5% to really get that extra precision.

It's 30.5•(a+b/12) understood as about 1.015•10•(3a+b/4).

True, but these days you can disable iCloud backups without giving up all that much. (it also re-keys Messages in iCloud when you turn off backups)

Keychain, messages, and health data are all E2E encrypted and synced to iCloud.

By not doing iCloud backups, you're basically only giving up backups of app icon placement, home/lock screen background images, app data that isn't otherwise synced via iCloud or the app's dedicated sync service, and a handful of phone settings.

You can opt for the occasional iTunes backup to preserve those infrequently changing elements on the phone, and not have to compromise on recovery point for more important data like messages and security creds since all of that is synced in real time.

I am not sure why we are focused on the electric car angle. Assuming this motor design is legitimate and practical, I feel the implications for commercial/industrial prime movers and power generation are far more substantial. Hypothetically, if we were to replace all existing HVAC compressor and blower motors with this technology, where would that leave us in terms of power consumption reduction? How much wider do the applications become due to the variable speed capability of the motor design?
I do. I worked in healthcare and the overwhelming majority of patients are legit. Same with any category where people are cynical and project that cynicism onto the majority. When I became a patient I became a victim of this categorization. I've been labeled immediately as drug seeking or mental or whatever and things have gone ignored or dismissed until I pushed long enough and hard enough for testing etc. I've told the story over and over irl about working in inner city hospitals and seeing people consistently dismissed and joked about for hours until testing prove them legit and then watching people scramble mostly to CYA not out of any empathy. Was a major contributor to my burnout in the field.

Calling worried patients with scary symptoms "nuts" and their issues "crap" really sums up the sort of thing I am talking about and is what makes patients afraid their provider isn't going to do their best to help them. Empathy is required for good healthcare. I recently got another confirmed and terribly depressing diagnosis of an incurable issue, but the provider I was working with was so kind, caring, and informative it reduced the mental impact as much as is possible. A dismissive provider, who was ultimately wrong, a few weeks before had me in an even worse head space than normal until I got to someone good. When I reached out to the wrong one to notify them they didn't seem care at all and dug in harder despite the proof/labs etc.
