From the future here, gravity is just light reflecting off of stellar bodies, which causes the universe to "bend" space/time in all directions, just different strengths based on the reflectiveness of whatever it hit and the strength of the light source. The reason that a whole bunch of nothingness between planets keeps them spinning around one another is just light and the sheer force it applies by bumping into objects and then reflecting into the next one. Don't think of just one beam of light, think of a cacophony of endless bounces of light in varying degrees of strength.

Light is without mass, but not without energy. That energy causes what you could describe as "propulsion". Even the slightest bit of propulsion in the emptiness of space will cause matter to move around.

It's like light being a big ladle. And using that ladle to spin the water + tiny floating objects in a bath. They will all affect one another until the heat death of the bath occurs and all life grinds to a halt.

I think that, even if you ignore or don't notice pain, it still will have, in the long run, some effect on your psyche. The same way prolonged background noise will turn you insane even if you're not hearing it. I think in a lot of cases, chronic conditions are co-morbid with depression not because people actively weep over being in pain, but because a constant pain signal ends up having an effect on how the brain is wired. In my case, even though I ignore/don't notice pain most of the time, it definitely increased my general sensibility to regular pain and discomfort, physical or psychological. Ignoring your own body also leads to derealization, also in my case. But if I sit down and practice mindfulness, it makes it easier to deal with. Something I think about often is that picture of the Tibetan monk setting himself on fire. He's not ignoring the pain, he's very much aware of it, but he's detached from it.

Interesting anecdote. Sounds like he didn't want to talk politics but you kept pushing, trying to take some moral high ground. Voting isn't an exam, it's actually pretty simple even for swing voters. Believe it or not, there is no right or wrong answer or else we would not have a vote. You essentially vote on a personal philosophy that is developed over your live, or primarily in your earlier years, and by studying history, consuming art like books, movies and music, and meeting people and discussing these ideas. It's something that happens in the background. Keeping up with what the candidates, parties and news outlets are saying isn't nearly as relevant.

This paper does not look like a strong paper, in particular it's very terse when describing the way the neural network is trained, which fails to convince that they did not train the neural network model on the sorted input. They are also not clear on their timings, it's not sure they include the training time in their benchmarks. For these reasons, it does not look very reproducible, and there's no obligation to cite non-reproducible work.

Read the article again:

> Ikea will soon be selling pre-used versions of some of its best sellers

> Ikea said that anything that cannot be resold will be recycled.

Recycling is a last resort here, the primary news here is that IKEA is going to be selling refurbished items (aka re-use) and incentivising people to partake by offering trade-in value when they bring their items back.

This move is primarily meant to counter people throwing away furniture prematurely when moving. This way people can re-sell their items to IKEA, and IKEA will sell it in good state to other people that can re-use it. This seems like it would be better for the environment than everybody logging around heavy furniture cross-country (or cross-continent), because unnecessary transport costs are avoided, and is certainly much better than the status quo of people throwing away old IKEA furniture that is still perfectly usable.

To me this seems like a good idea. Do you have any better ideas? Reduce would be theoretically preferable, but good luck convincing people not to use a bed, a desk or a dining room table.

I think there's an unfortunate convergence of format and questioning. He asks a lot of the same questions of almost every guest. "Are we living in a simulation? What is consciousness? Etc." This feels like a waste of these guests if it's unrelated to their area of interest. In general, it smacks of lack of preparation.

But perhaps this creates the opportunity for someone to make a series of supercuts, where Lex doesn't need to appear, but we get the appearance of a series of luminaries discussing a recurring question, and the differences and similarities among responses can be more apparent.

I don't know if the book is already scanned or not? Note the article is a year and a half old. A multi-year project to create a digital edition is under way https://nors.ku.dk/english/research/arnamagnaean/the-book-of... but will run til 2023. Of course scanning is just a small part of this.

I seriously doubt that taking photos with a smartphone will be faster than using professional equipment. The scanners have automated and semi-automated page turners which can be used depending on the state of the book. The have "beds" for holding fragile books which cannot be opened fully.

Digitization is certainly an important part of preservation, but speedily leafing through a fragile old book with a smartphone in one hand is not the way to do it. They inspect the material very carefully even before the scanning because it would be pretty dumb to destroy the book in the process.
Just caught that interview and it goes further. Rep Adam Schiff is claiming "the Intelligence Community says it's Russian disinformation" and then the DNI says that they haven't passed any reports/briefings to Congress that say that. So Schiff is making claims for the IC without talking with them and they appear to be false.

Set aside the topic for a second.. how is any Congressman going to the media and making things up acceptable?
“ Inflation happens when the supply of money and credit in the economy grows faster than economic output. “

This is extremely important and often misunderstood from a policy perspective. It’s actually not this simple, it’s demand for dollars rather than than economic output, but still, the point remains. Depending on execution, you can get inflation through taxation, or deflation through spending. The net economic effect is critical, and behavioral economics especially has a lot to say about how these can work in reverse.

I am not sure it's better if that was not invented - the question of option pricing doesn't go away, it's a fundamental need for real businesses producing commodities that need to hedge real risk around the weather, or selling into cyclical industries etc.

LTCM (& it's failure) has as much to do with getting so big as to present a systemic risk to the entire financial sector, and over-leverage. No matter what formula they use to price their options, those two factors make for a dangerous combination. There is a perverse incentive to become "too big to fail", because if you truly reach that, the gains stay private whereas the losses are inevitably socialized to prevent taking down the whole system.

Hey there!
I've developed an iOS app and will be greatly appreciated for any feedback or support.

DoHabits helps you create healthy routines by helping you set goals, tracking your progress, and then motivating you with streaks. Unlike so many other habit apps, DoHabits lets you set a goal and track it MULTIPLE times a day, not just one time per day.
DoHabits can help you both BUILD and QUIT habits/activities.

We are not afraid of taking risks. But we do look at the founding team, the idea, the traction, the founder market fit and the potential impact of a company. We are doing 30-40 direct investments per year ranging from $25K-$100K per investment depending on company stage. In addition, we are making a large number of investments on AngelList. We believe in taking risks and mitigating risks through diversification. "

Ok, a lot of words, most mean nothing. I learned that you are an Angel investor, investing $25K-$100K. Which is small but is okay for an Angel/Seed Investment. But what else? What industries? Investment objectives? I assume you mostly or only invest in IT but in the end I am guessing already.

And if you reply now " Build the Technology for the Future, Unlock Human Potential, Empower Individuals and Small Businesses, Level the Playing Field and Leave our Planet Healthy for Future Generations." then, as a person who has worked in VC, I would be out.

Since everybody's been using fertilizers for a long (?) time, does that mean that farmlands aren't sold for as high a price? What happens when all the soil is eroded away?
Patterns taken from manufacturing do not always translate well to software. Kanban is a notable exception. The "pull" model of kanban fits well with the Agile approach to late resource allocation to tasks. Kanban, while it was born in the repeating process world of manufacturing, translates well to the non-repeating, yet iterative nature of software projects.

What is your solution to unlimited domains and email for those domains? I am curios if there are lower cost options that just work with little maintenance.

Republican voters believe lies about the Republican agenda.

Take for example pre-existing condition protections. Republicans want to cut pre-existing condition protections.
Between 2010 and 2016 Republicans passed over 50 repeal bills. They have no replacement. Now they are fighting in court to cut these protections. And they have lied about it. They say they don't want to cut them.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/10/01/trumps-he...

And this pattern repeats for many policies - tax cuts for the wealthy, trade policies, minimum wage suppression. Republican politicians have to lie about what they're doing because their policies are unpopular.

So Republican voters believe lies.

By comparison, around 9% of the UK general population suffers from asthma.”
