> Yes? It's a different claim. Somebody doing X and a culture where many people turn a blind eye to and enable X aren't the same thing.

I don't think it makes a huge difference tbh.

> We're talking about forums on the internet. Are you an I "aligned" because we had this discussion here?

No. But this is a forum that generally frowns on and downvotes conspiracy theories. If you go to a forum that's primary function is discussing them, then I would say yes.

> Also, please do respond to my edit. I'm still pretty clueless as to the better way to work the problem of powerful people turning a blind eye to and enabling lawbreaking by other powerful people other than just talking about it.

>What is the right way to address e.g. the widespread availability of illegal prostitution in hotels owned by American companies in foreign countries? I saw a few news articles in the press exploring the phenomenon a few years back, but nothing changed. Am I supposed to found a non-profit? A newspaper? Do the investigation myself and publish it to LiveLeak? Write a letter to my congresswoman? I'm honestly not sure how to work that problem, other than just talking to other people about it.

Well given that your theory could be wrong, yeah, you should probably either do the investigation yourself, fund someone else to do the investigation, or find a different problem to solve that is within your power to affect. Raising awareness of something in the form of a conspiracy theory delegitamizes it.

For example, how legitamite anti human trafficking non-profits have had a harder time doing productive things due to conspiracy theory influence: https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/qanons-obsession-with-s...
Generally, a startup first employee is selling the company their labour at a _substantial_ discount; that is, the employee is giving the company something, not the other way round.

This is usually compensated with stock, which is currently worthless but may not be in future. In effect, the employee is giving the company a high interest loan with a high risk of default.

The free market is entirely based on investor hype. We have economic downturns ever 7-ish years, like clockwork, because some bubble burst again. It's a fallacy to treat investors like rational actors.
I've never heard of Timeliner. It doesn't have good Google ranking, so it was a bit buried. I think this is it:

https://github.com/mholt/timeliner

Timeliner is a personal data aggregation utility.
It collects all your digital things from pretty much
anywhere and stores them on your own computer, indexes
them, and projects them onto a single, unified timeline.

Supported data sources
* Google Location History

Original contributors are in charge of the distribution restriction.

The organization is purely operational and enforces distribution restrictions, per original authors’.

They can infiltrate the distribution org as much as they want, as long as the original author to org hand-off is legally constrained. The main puzzle is what is that legal mechanism, which may be nothing more than licensing.
Copyright convergence is mathematically divergent: some nation extends copyright by a positive integer value, so must all the others. An infinite series of positive integer values cannot converge to an integer value. However, comfort may be found in that this is a process of countable infinity.

So two points here I disagree with (though I'm not I a Catholic I can't really explain their belief system.)

One is the belief a all intelligent things have a soul, obviously fetuses and intelligent life do, but animals functionally don't. Aliens could fall somewhere on the potential intelligence spectrum between sperm and fetus or only one in a billion could reach acceptable intelligence for a soul whatever that is deemed to be. What if they are intelligent, but physically cannot believe in God? Is that just metaphysically impossible?

Second is that the Bible doesn't claim to be comprehensive. This kind of weird to argue against, basically anything disagreeable in the Bible could be controverted then. It's like saying there COULD be an 11th commandment or something of that nature. It makes the Bible not necessarily wrong but difficult to take seriously.

It's a weird case. If Raniere hadn't turned out to be a serial abuser/rapist of underage girls even outside of his cult, I doubt that they would have ever been arrested, and if they had been, they would have gotten off.

He was a creep that ran a process/self-improvement cult and started a harem inside it, but that's not really a crime. If it hadn't been part of a larger (consistent) pattern, what is law enforcement really supposed to do about women branding each other and sending each other material expressly labeled as blackmail? If I sign a contract with you that says that in order for me to (for example) lease a property to you, I require nude pictures, an embarrassing interview, and a physical brand on your body (weird), and that if you skip out on the rent I'm granted the right to release that material - is that a crime? Maybe - you can't sell yourself into slavery, but the definition of slavery is loose.

NXIVM was no worse than Scientology or Mormonism, which is to say it's horrible but protected, and its insularity hid stuff that was actually criminal but impossible to prosecute because everyone in the group would form a protective wall around the organization even if you made a bit of headway.

It's a lot easier and more rewarding to set some 80 I.Q. kid up as a terrorist. The public would have absolutely no interest in this if there wasn't sex involved (as Oxenberg and Edmondson remarked at least a couple of times on the TV series.) We don't prosecute financial institutions for financial crimes (or even resource the agencies responsible to even theoretically prosecute them.) There's no chance we're going to be going after tiny cults.

Maybe the CIA would have noticed them as they got a better foothold in Mexican elite circles and figured out a way to support them.

NXIVM is a cautionary tale for cults. The Guardian's Office/OSA in Scientology is not just decoration, it's crucial to build an internal intelligence service to keep an enterprise like that together. Raniere was just trying to improv the response to defectors and potential defectors rather than building a bureaucracy. Maybe get that done before the harem.

You are claiming that because something cannot be proven false, it cannot be assumed false. That's fine, but just because something can't be proven false, one doesn't need to assume it has merit beyond a random statement.

My statement about mental health of conspiracy theorists is based on a journalist who interviewed dozens of conspiracy theorists and found that almost all of them had suffered an incident where they were betrayed in their personal lives and believed that most people were lying about them. I found that compelling. He wasn't god though. Maybe he was wrong.

I know someone who couldn’t code a FizzBuzz who, through a couple of acquisitions, became a $500k+ middle manager at Google. I hope they saved money, because I don’t think anyone would possibly hire them post-Google lay-off.

Our high school in a small town in the middle of the USA has a personal finance class that is very good. It isn't a "core" class but most students end up taking it due to the need to acquire credits to graduate and the relative lack of other elective classes.

And for more up-to-date versions, why doesn't Docker create a ppa? At most it should be something of the sort of:

That's how these things were intended to work.

Even Google Research themselves use youtube-dl when assembling computer vision datasets. The only way to work on their data and reproduce the results is through youtube-dl, as video datasets are often only distributed as URLs and timestamps, and even the example codes use youtube-dl.

I wonder how this will impact the AI research community if there's some FUD around this tool.

Generally scraping is a gray area. I know researchers who scraped Google street view for large areas to train AI models without Googles approval and got hired by Google for their impressive AI skills instead of threatened.

I know researchers are a tiny group compared to consumers, but it's still interesting I think.
I just got my grandfather’s C64 up and running for fun. I ordered a 4:3 “security camera monitor” flat panel with an analog composite video input for a screen and it works great. Was only like $80 on Amazon.

I haven’t had time to play with it yet, but I also got one of these:

https://www.thefuturewas8bit.com/shop/commodore/sd2iec-range...

It’s a little mini replica of a C64 floppy that takes SD cards!

With that plus the monitor I hope to get some games going and order some controllers so I can play with my daughter. She loves retro games. They’re much more approachable and fun for young kids than a lot of newer titles.

I also plan to introduce her to programming on it. The simplicity and instant feedback on these old machines makes them great for taking the first programming steps. Sort of reminds me of how a lot of car people learn with old cars or other simpler engines as they are easier to work on. Makes me worried about how the engineers of the future will get started with today’s walls of complexity. I guess a Pi is the best modern learning machine.

The one I got running is the one my grandfather taught me BASIC on when I was like 6 so there is a neat tradition aspect too.

Commodore really could have been Apple had it been better run. The C64 was amazing, rivaling the early IBM PC for capability despite being only 8-bit. The Amiga was in many ways far superior to the early Mac and way ahead of its time.
When I was starting Anki, I would spend time really focusing my thinking on the cards while reviewing them (reading sentences aloud multiple times until pronunciation is good, relating concepts to others, ...). I'm now convinced this is a waste of time and Anki is best used rushing through sessions as fast as possible (maximum 20min a day). This takes care of the small, boring but often essential rote memorization part, allowing you to use as much of your time and intellect for actual practice in the target domains.

(This may not apply if the target domain is actually itself rote memorization, e.g. medical exams)

In some ways, then, we are 'alone'. Sure, there may be intelligent life out there, but the vast differences in biology combined with the likely vast differences in technology will render us 'alone' all the same.

Way back when I was at school, my biggest issue with maths classes was that I never saw the point - like, what would I ever actually do with logarithmic equations in real life? I'd always ask the maths teacher whenever we started a new subject, and even he had no idea. It was all just so theoretical - seemingly pointless.

I found it much more interesting to study things with practical implications, and I also think embedding financial literacy into maths might be a good idea.

I'll add that I did of course eventually find uses for some of the things I was taught in maths class: path finding algorithms for a game AI, neural networks, genetic algorithms, all sorts. But in class, I didn't know any of these uses.
RMS is a stellar example of why we should avoid falling into the genetic fallacy[1]. Yes he is stupid about inter-sexual relations and sexual relations in general. But I don't look to RMS for dating or sex advice and neither should anyone else. Contrarily, just because he's stupid about some things doesn't mean we shouldn't listen to him in the domains where he's literally a genius[2], like software and information freedom.

As someone who did extremely poorly in math at school until I found practical applications of it in programming I can tell you that for a part of the population (probably a large part considering how many other people don’t do well in math) it helps a lot to see how it applies to the real world and it provides more motivation to pursue the topic. Money is something everyone can relate to and it makes a lot of basic mathematical concepts much more concrete. Without looking it up I’d bet a lot of early development in mathematics was motivated by its application to money and management of quantities of goods, why shy away from history that makes the topic more interesting and relatable?
Two things to consider.

1. The purpose of school: To produce a basic worker who wont question authority and to keep a large segment of the population out of trouble for a majority of the working day (babysitting). School hasn't really changed much since the late industrial revolution with the exception that child labor laws mean more kids stay in and complete school.

2. A typical high school student completes 25 year long classes in order to graduate. Those typically include 4 Math, 4 Science, 4 Social Studies, 4 English Language, 2 Foreign Language, 1 Art, 1 PE, 2 General Purpose (Health, Speech, home EC, etc) 4+ Electives (Sports, Band, Shop, Ag)

What are you going to get rid of to open up some time in the kids schedule to teach finance? You can't take away electives, parents and college like to see their kids involved in things.

If we are going to change the curriculum, are there not more important things to our society to teach? A basic medic class, philosophy, ethics?

I think a one year "Life Skills" class should be added. But the question is, what do you teach. I know too many people that didn't have some really basic skills coming to/out of college. Things like cooking basic meals, doing laundry, basic home upkeep (how to clean to basic maintenance), hygiene and self care, budgeting (this is where basic finance could be taught), or how to drive (for those of us in car dependent places).
That's my big problem with Dave Ramsey. He's a rent-seekers financial advisor. There are lots of people who should cut their losses and let a bill get written off, but he brings his "ethical" view and counsels them to spend afew years feeding their kids garbage so the company can get paid.

Studies show that formal financial education does not help people make better decisions. People tend to make the decisions their parents make. Classes teach people to regurgitate knowledge but rarely to apply it.
