Thanks for the thoughtful reply! I'm open to learning how to be less irritating or condescending—it would make life easier, and I'm sure it's possible.

Calling the shots doesn't just boil down to opinion–there are principles here. They don't determine everything precisely—different people would make different calls. But the principles aren't infinitely flexible, either, and we have a lot of practice in applying them.
The book “The Big Short” is a documentary. The movie is based reasonably closely on the book. The movie is a fictional re-telling, but the people are real and their motivations and actions are accurate.
Considering how often actresses complain about how sex scenes are unpleasant, and the whole Harvey Weinstein thing, I’d say this is a positive development.
Slight tangent but podcasting is an interesting counterpoint. Right now the business is pretty distributed. There's no youtube for podcasts although Apple is easily number one. There is now an absolute street fight between Apple and Spotify with Google, Amazon and some other wannabes fighting to own the walled garden. And crazy consolidation for creator tools and monetization. It'll be interesting to see if a "winner" emerges or if the space stays open.
Those comments in the thread have interesting points. 350/g in 1980 compared to what it costs now. (I used to pay 60/g around 2010)

Thinking about it more, I guess you need to clarify if a boomers today use more drugs or was drug use higher in the 60s,70s,80s then in 00s and 10s. Other stuff I searched suggested boomers in the 10s are hit hard by opioids
>They’re just not aware of how transparent they are.

Conversely, we might not actually be aware of the true masters at work precisely because of their skill and the fact that we can catch the novices

>How would you convince those people of anything? I’m not sure.

The same way they convince their marks: create the impression of yourself as a strong and confident leader and they will form an internal story as to why it makes sense to follow and believe what you say

Sex work and pugilism I think can be strongly equated. Both involve using ones body and adult consent. One for sex, the other for violence.

We don't outlaw boxing or MMA. But we put regulations on it. We shut down illegal basement fights. And we hope people going into it aren't coerced and have recourse if something goes wrong. We accept that if an adult wants to get punched in the face for money that's something society can accommodate with reasonable expectations.

But there's no world where we would see a boss getting in the ring with his employees to fight for money as something acceptable.
It's hard to find the correct number.

Price it too high and the news will report "Instagram opens -30% on their first day". Price it too low and you left money on the table.

The best approach would be allowing people to place buy orders on market and then just liquidate as many as you can stock for when market opens but I'm not sure if this is exactly how this will go.

Isn't it also the kind of thing that large organizations self host? Sure they could have probably found it with a search engine, or some employee reference, but asking someone isn't a huge deal.
It’s not the point - he should have said “it’s done”, and not leave listeners hanging.
Have a look at Cindy Gallop's Make Love Not Porn https://makelovenotporn.tv/ - it's been going for a few years now.

It's kind of what you describe. It's like pornhub's "home" videos idea but a 1000 times better - actually curated, personal and real. Haven't followed them recently but at the beginning they actually organised camera setups for people who wanted to be featured.
Honestly those examples you provided take a lot more skill and effort than most people put into exploitive sex. The consequences of doing those examples “wrong” are far higher, too, e.g. loss of life or limb.

I think a better retort would be that people want professional jobs where their contribution is based on seemingly objective merit. If 50% of your performance is judged by one person in an entirely subjective way, i.e. their satisfaction with sex, it’s not a very well protected job for one thing. Further, the benefit of exploitive sex industries is not having to commit - to be able to switch it up. Tightly coupling your exploitive sex with job positions whose value increases directly with the amount of institutional knowledge retained would not be wise - your turnover or dissatisfaction would be too high. Finally, despite all the efforts of exploitive industries, sex is still a biological function and very personal to many (most?). There are subtle relationships involved in such intimacy despite efforts to avoid it. From a management perspective, there’s a risk to being “friends” with people that work for you, much less having sex with them. I think it would introduce too many opportunities for personal feelings interrupting optimal productivity. Put directly, the integrity of your decision-making ability on behalf of the company would likely be compromised.
I'm having a hard time understanding you here. Or rather, the destinction you are trying to make.

Do you prefer more verb oriented-ness? I.e. "just iterate through the list" rather than "Implement the Iterator design pattern"
Which would only explain women right? Male sperm counts are down dramatically over the last 20 years.
Well, dog walking apps have pretty major safety issues. They've had problems with crime, serious injuries, pets have died, and all sorts of lawsuits documenting it.

Your broader point is correct, I'm just not so sure everyone is as good at judging where that line is as they think they are.

Have been successfully breathing trough my mouth and using my own tongue for the same effect since I was a little kid. Takes some practice getting the airflow right, but it's the same physics: get it cooled down by the incoming air and warmed up on the way out. It surprisingly has enough thermal capacitance to have a noticeable effect.
I'm not OP but I'm not sexually active either and share the same worries and am probably a few years older than him.

Thanks for sharing those videos, even though I was able to make that physique/style/life control transformation several times (get fit -> fall into a hole -> get fit again, rinse and repeat) during my 20s, this pandemic made me fall into a rut and I'm heavily struggling to stay on the right track that makes me climb up again. These videos are were another spark of motivation to try again.

As for the "not sexually active" situation, I've noticed the feeling of frustration has become more intense and had made me more sad about it lately. As an introvert, the co-workers social circle is usually one of the main ones, but unfortunately I'm working alone because it has many more pros (own schedule -> go to gym when it's deserted, beat traffic, do errands at times where there are less waiting times, etc). Old college friends are starting to get married and be more busy, so I've been seeing them less, so less opportunity to be introduced to new people. I've tried salsa classes before the pandemic but didn't workout for that matter (couples that are very private, people that leave once the class ends, tight groups of friends). I've also tried the Tinder way, and the closest I've ended with a woman from it, she ended up losing interest when the pandemic started. Now I'm seeing someone from Tinder, and even though it will probably stay at friendship I'm taking it.

I've been seeing a therapist since a couple years ago after I had my first panic attack, since then I've been using therapy for all my issues. However, even though I've been open about my sexual frustrations, I feel like my therapist ignores it and simply tries to work on my social aspect in general. My therapist is female and I wonder if having a male therapist it would be different, I've been wanting to try but I already invested many sessions with my current therapist.

Depending on how this is interpreted/enforced, it could make the platform much more or much less attractive to politically-oriented creators.
> If the robot's protocol is to measure the particle twice, it will measure the same outcome twice.

But you cannot measure the same particle twice. If you think you can, describe the experimental setup for me.

> I didn't say that it was up, I said that it is up. Very important distinction.

Indeed. But by the time you see the outcome of the experiment, the particle you measured doesn't exist any more. So what does "is up" actually mean at that point?

> Seems like a distinction without a difference to me.

It's a crucial difference. Our mental models of our classical universe depend heavily on the continuity of identity, i.e. that there are things in the world with properties that persist across time. This what allows us to say things like, "The vase on the table is green." This presumes that the phrase "the vase" has an actual referent, that referent is a vase, and it is on the table, and it is green. We think this makes sense because we can see the vase on the table, and we can see that it is green.

But in order to see the vase, your eyes have to accumulate a lot of photons, and that takes time. So the vase on the table has to persist at least long enough for your eyes to accumulate enough reflected photons to see it. If you stop looking at the vase, the vase is still there. If you look at it again, the vase will still be on the table and it will still be green.

Particle measurements are fundamentally different. It really doesn't make sense to say "the photon in the left arm of the interferometer" or "the electron in the upper branch of the Stern-Garlach apparatus. If you doubt this, read the following:

> Bubble chambers do measure particle trajectories

No, they create those trajectories. A particle that is not in a bubble chamber doesn't have a trajectory.
I think people greatly overestimate how much effort is required to have a fit/muscular body type. 3 to 5 hours a week of good intensity weight training goes a really long way.
If there had been good people in power at NASA at the time, the most important thing they could have done to save lives (not to mention run an effective organization) would be to refuse to promote folks without a demonstrable conscience to management positions.

It's all well and good to celebrate Allan McDonald for courageously speaking up, but the hard question is this: had Larry Mulloy or George Hardy ever been in the position where they had to make a decision about whether to courageously speak up, at any point between when they joined NASA and when they got their management roles?

If your promotion criteria says that someone's qualified for a higher-level job because they've been doing good work in fair weather, you have absolutely no way to know whether they listen to their conscience - you simply have no data about what happens when they have to make tough calls. And in fact your process is slightly biased against people who do, because sometimes people who don't will take an unwise risk and get lucky. And so over time, as long as disasters remain less common as worries about disasters, the folks who don't listen to their consciences get a little bit more done during their career compared to their peers.

We know that Thiokol demoted McDonald for speaking up and sidelined the others who also did. This is a system that systematically avoids empowering the good guys.

(And, from all evidence, Mulloy and Hardy were highly capable engineers. I'm not saying NASA should have never hired them - they should have had senior IC roles to fit their strengths and NASA should have looked for folks more like McDonald to make the launch decisions.)

Aye, there's like 3-6 ways to inject code into applications on Windows, and then LD_PRELOAD (and equivalents) and attaching as a debugger on *NIX platforms. There's no way a display manager, audio server, etc. can protect themselves from clients from code injected into them - outside of completely disabling these functions that allow it (and certainly have valid use cases, if much less often than illegitimate ones).
I personally don't find color to the feature I need for my ebook reader. I bought BOOX Nova 3 for books and (mainly) surfing, and found I liked the writing and use it for keep notes as well. The writing is better than iPad because the screen is not glass. I am not using screen protector so I don't know how long this screen will last. Overall, it is an upgrade from my kindle. I never wanted to see color once on it though. I would imagine iPad is a better device for pictures, mangas and videos because it is faster.

Serhii Plokhy’s Chernobyl: History of Tragedy seems a great text on the subject, and while the tv series is undoubtedly dramatised and many characters are morphed into one, the tv series seems to broadly follow the history of events as described in the book. Serhii seems to have a favourable view of the tv series.

Is there something glaring I am missing?

> Sexual desire became something you could very easily take care of, to your exact specifications, in private.

That's a very shallow view. It as much takes care of your sexual desires as fries takes care of your daily nutrition. It's great if you have no real food available and can be a fun snack if you're still hungry.
> But to my larger point, it is still an asset.

But he already burned a lot of good will by doing it so glib. For example, I don’t click “like” on his videos anymore, and I’m not subscribing to his paid director’s commentary. It only applies to Grey, we all know it’s not Brady’s fault.
Watched Top Gun last night and was floored by this. Tom Cruise and Kelly McGillis certainly were heartthrobs of the day, and not unattractive by any normal measure, but it was shocking how... “normal” they looked compared to today’s casts. Cruise with a unibrow and those teeth? Never.

It’s tremendously sad how this frog in boiling water came to be.
Set an intention and make it public
You’ve just stated that you choose to rent. Your landlord is thus providing a service you value (adding to the economy).

You are providing a service your tenants value. In your case, this may be mostly the assumption of risk - what if your tenants stop paying, and the government says you can’t evict? What if rental prices drop dramatically? Or real estate prices drop dramatically? What if your tenants move out and it takes X months to rent?

You are still on the hook for your payments to the bank, and your equity and credit rating are at risk.

The bank lending you capital in exchange for interest (rent) is also providing you a valuable service - and you are providing a valuable service to them, giving them a return on their capital (with an acceptable risk of default).

That’s the “invisible hand” of free market exchanges - each party gives what they value less to obtain what they value more, so both parties are better off (if they didn’t feel themselves to be better off, they would not make the exchange).

> [Julia] was a bold-looking girl, of about twenty-seven, with thick hair, a freckled face, and swift, athletic movements. A narrow scarlet sash, emblem of the Junior Anti-Sex League, was wound several times round the waist of her overalls, just tightly enough to bring out the shapeliness of her hips. Winston had disliked her from the very first moment of seeing her.

> Better than before, moreover, he realized why it was that he hated her. He hated her because she was young and pretty and sexless, because he wanted to go to bed with her and would never do so, because round her sweet supple waist, which seemed to ask you to encircle it with your arm, there was only the odious scarlet sash, aggressive symbol of chastity.

Specially when it's clearly not true. Just look at population not in work in western countries, even outside the current pandemic situation. If we really needed more people wouldn't we have near full employment? Economy will adapt to less demand, though there will be likely pains, but money is just numbers anyway...
How far back does this millenials have less sex thing compare too? Today's women that grew up in the 90s yeah probably is more free then one from 50s and earlier. But compared to the 70s? I don't think it's farfetched to guess that society's feelings towards women sexuality have regressed since the sexual revolution of the 70s. Paris Hilton having a sex tape coming out was a huge deal, that's what millennial girls grew up with.

I don't mean to suggest that this is the only reason, I just think it contributes.
100%. That's what I alluded to with:

>weren't really a big deal for anyone besides NSA and CIA.

It's an absolute nightmare if you're NSA or CIA. You're going to have to remake everything from scratch, pretty much. It'll be very tedious and will probably result in a lot of downtime and delays of other projects.

It's like when that stealth Black Hawk crash-landed on Osama bin Laden's compound. (Though that was probably a lot more annoying and difficult to re-engineer than software.)

I was just thinking about it in terms of a common media scaremonger narrative of them possessing tools that if leaked can in some way bestow magic powers or other unnatural abilities onto ordinary people. And that kind of is the case for major zero-days like ETERNALBLUE, but for general software tools, it's a total red herring.
Yes. But you may also get the fix in 6.2.1 and 6.2.2 and who knows how many - until 6.2 is declared LTS (and only if that happens), then those 6.2.x releases become commercial-only from that point on.

In their place, there's a clinical, sterile plastic automaton put together by marketing departments.

Last year I got ahold of The Munsters, the black-and-white TV show from the 1960s, and noticed something odd one day when I watched an episode back-to-back with a modern unrelated show: What you describe with people also applies to props. In the Munsters' dinner scenes, the whole set - including the food - was significantly more interactive than anything modern I've seen possibly ever. It made the modern shows rather suddenly feel much more fake than I was used to.
> But hey, prove me wrong. I'd love to see a counter example.

Based on another commenter's suggestion that you basically want "sex in movies that aren't about sex", it only took me a few minutes of googling to find sites which seem relevant to your interests:

- r/watchitfortheplot

- mrskin.com

It seems like you want porn which feels more organic and authentic than stereotypical porn. Sure the material in these sites wasn't expressly made to be porn, but it is porn in the way its packaged by these sites and subsequently used. And it's probably better that way, because it gets you what you're looking for in this case.
Is there an explanation why ?

I’m surprised NPR wrote this today:

>Refuse to sign, and he'd risk his job, his career, and the good life he'd built for his wife and four children.

It is subtle but still—the man had _four_ kids.

The decision was risking the life he and his wife were building _together_.
Most R movies have no incest, rape, or pedophilia, so I don't understand the point of your comment.

What point is being made here, exactly? The OP was talking about American culture in general terms, not relative to “first-world nations” specifically, so shouldn’t the US’s murder rate relative to the median of all societies be more germane?

Yes, the US ranks worse on some measures of development than similarly rich countries, including murder rate. This is not news to anyone. I don’t see the relevance to the present discussion and suspect it was just an opportunity to sneer at the US for no reason.
