He preaches taking personal responsibility for your life, which is antithetical to the leftist ideology which claims that the individual’s ills are caused by society. From the perspective of a leftist, Peterson is insensitive and detached from reality.

reasonable post about certain site areas like banking etc being unchanged really, and the increasing landscape of bloat and downward spiral of dev options,
but when it comes to using adblockers etc, I don't get it still. Why is it always the people who use adblockers are so complainy? You don't need an adblocker. You're visiting the wrong sites. Those news sites with unbearble ads? why are you on them? Go elsewhere for your news. Twitter ads? sure, they get annoying interjecting, but if you say "I don't like this ad" they mostly disappear/change. Same with instagram. It just takes a bit of training and then you won't remember/notice them. I am connected to the web constantly to get information and a wide array of it, but that doesn't mean I need to surf the whole array of the web because yes, a ton of those commerical areas are horrible. So I hardly notice ads/they are interfering really. Not enough to let it get to me. I can bear 5 seconds on an ad on YouTube once in awhile and for the most part you shouldn't be watching that much YouTube to begin with directly on the site - consume them via twitter and other embeds as needed.

Anyways, adblockers. Bleh.

And to the other stuff, the creative emergence of the web was glorious but then it moved with the internet in general to a more mainstream, utility use and of course commercial glut came with that. Getting back to more of the 'art' of web design and more personal blogs etc as everyone continually mentions for last number of years would be nice, but where we're at as far as technology and the 'resource' of the web is just part of the evolution and growth to the billions of people it reaches now.
That attitude does tend to align more with mine, with some important distinctions. It would also be interesting to compare long term societal/general impact and survival with that attitude.

My reasoning is that being exposed to the influence of power and wealth when someone is young is a bit like having them snort cocaine - unlikely to produce a long term successful human).

Is not taking wealth when it is available and not giving it to your progeny a long term survival/genetic benefit or not?

Wouldn't really change anything, but I guess curiosity in the face of a unclear benefit is pretty much the definition of us here. :)
> "then it should be a public foundry, if payed for by the public"

It sounds to me like Intel is willing to set up a fab in Europe, and they've stated their asking price. Why does this immediately result in people saying that it should be a public foundry just because it would ultimately be paid for by the public?
Thanks! The California version can be stricter too with fair housing and employment being under one agency

> Elon’s vision involves humanity in its success

That sounds complicated. Let's test that ideal against something simple and practical.

If Elon's vision involves humanity in its success, then why don't Tesla's EV chargers charge all brands of EV?
> Surely.........they reimburse both sides for it?

That sort of sounds like selling something to eBay with extra steps. (Although obviously they should just return it, although they will probably charge return shipping.)
There is no one definition of "money". M0, M1, M2, M3, MZM are various metrics which have been proposed over time for trying to track the supply of USD all with varying definitions. M2 is frequently used as the simplest and best general case proxy for "how much USD is out in circulation" in a way that tracks credit + currency.

So saying the M2 is high relative to population means that we have been "printing money" (increasing the USD money supply) at a high rate relative to population.
It's not just about choice. This article is likely a response to Ubuntu betting on Flutter for desktop apps: https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2021/03/ubuntu-building-apps-wit...

A bet like that is putting a large part of Linux desktop app development in the hands of Google, which as a history of killing or deprecating their projects. Sure it can be forked if there's 'enough momentum', but that would suddenly dump a huge burden on the Linux ecosystem that it doesn't need. Why not stick with established players like Qt, who actually have a proven sustainable business model (dual OSS+commercial) for decades now, or a classic like FreePascal+Lazarus, which is also established for decades?
From a technical level, you’re obviously right.

But when sight reading, there’s a lot more going on than just technical skill. Depending on the person who is sight reading and which piece, playing both voices at the same time can, on an intellectual level, help tremendously with comprehension that it more than offsets the additional technical burden.

I always assumed STO was as much about “this person has only one job [rather than 50% on each of topics A and B]” as it was “this person can decide whatever they think is best for topic A”.
Ok I see, to clarify, I mean at the individual, concrete level, as oppose to statistical, and indirect measures of it. I really doubt there is anything, since it's subjective and we also don't know the underlying mechanisms of the mind which produce it.

Lol, one would have to be an "ignorant city boy" to believe your claims here, don't BS us.

We are talking about the poorly designed showboats that do nothing to improve hauling capacity or utility. In my experience, I'd vastly prefer a lower bed for any of the tasks you mention. The extended crew cabs, stubby beds, and jacked to hell trucks are for aesthetics, not hauling mulch.

Plus you don't even seem to realize the distinction, just emotionally (and perhaps intentionally?) misunderstand what is under discussion.
> For example this report from March 2020 was highly influential and predicted 2.2 million deaths in the US in an 'unmitigated epidemic' scenario:

You just said yourself that the 2.2 million was the "do nothing" scenario, and as we've seen in India it could've easily been that. You also just said said we did many things — "unusual and unjustified" things, in your opinion — therefore mitigating that worst-case projection. I personally lost the point you were trying in these self-contradictions, but I am curious where you were going.

These poor companies clearly need financial support from the government. Rich startups however can easily develop new technologies out of their own pockets.
Equipping the machines with a relatively small and non upgradable amount of RAM is probably the easiest way to achieve a sufficient probabiliy that these devices are thrown away by their users after some relatively short period of time that best suits the manufacturer's business model.

All enabled by the ever more RAM hungry bloatware that gets pushed to users' computers unless they're painfully selective about the software they install.

It's probably also just marketing ... having some ridiculous 4 GB equipped laptop in the store that's only few hundred bucks cheaper than the 8 GB model, makes it way easier for many people to buy the latter. Even if both are stupidly over priced.

The Big Five personality classification (currently being discussed on the front page [1]) has been reproduced and has predictive power. Sure the results are 'mild' compared to the physical sciences, but it's the best (first?) result that's come out of psychology research that actually meets this bar so far. Apparently it was used by Cambridge Analytica during that whole FB scandal, which is not great but validates it at least?

That seems extreme? I know NY is especially stringent but people do attend conferences and the like. I haven't seen a few days here and there being an issue AFAIK. I think at one point the metric was 14 days but don't even see that currently. I'm pretty sure if someone headed to the Javits for a day had to file a NY tax return that would be pretty much the end of Javits conferences.

I have no idea why so many people quote velocity but it is an output, not an input.

Saying that velocity is falling when supply isn't interesting or relevant. The question is whether supply is growing in excess of demand (as ever).

The problem is JS - it's been a fuzzy bit of confusion since inception, it was never remotely intended to do what it's doing, and nary a tiny fraction of JS developers could authoritatively explain the differences between prototype __proto__ etc. - I keep a chart handy as a reminder and much like C++ stick to a set of rules to avoid unknowns.

There's a reasonable chance that with a much more succinct and clean '20/20 hindsight' the articles like this would be either clear, or frankly unnecessary.

I agree, the Wikipedia process is very slow, and often times a lot of discussion happens before something is finally done. That’s a natural consequence of a process where consensus, reliable sourcing, and a desire to be neutral and accurate determines what is acceptable and not acceptable.

I much prefer the process to what Reddit does, which is, in many subreddits, to quickly ban anyone who goes against the group think of a given subreddit, even if the subreddit is wrong.

In Wikipedia, as a rule of thumb, is that the truth does win out, even if it takes a while to get there. As one example, while Tara Reade’s now-discredited accusation [1] against Joe Biden was all over numerous subreddits and presented as objective fact, [2] the Wikipedia was taking a slower, more measured approach to reporting the accusations which ultimately ended up being far more accurate than what Reddit was doing at the time. [3]

As another case, a lot of noise was made over how horrible the Wikipedia was because Clarice Phelps didn’t have a Wikipedia article. She has one today. [4]

[1] This probably needs a citation. How about https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/what-74-former-biden-s... or, yeah, since it’s so heavily sourced https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Biden_sexual_assault_alleg...

[4] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarice_Phelps

[5] Wikipedia has a hard time with allowing articles about cool open source projects and languages. I agree this is really annoying, since it means I have to dig through GitHub, forums like this one, or (for fonts) Google Fonts to find high quality open source programs or content.

[6] Adding footnotes without a reference to the footnote is an old alt.sysadmin.recovery tradition
I thought interrupt mode reduced performance, that was the tradeoff, is the throughput your quoting in interrupt or polling mode?

I'm exactly advocating for the federal government to do its job and protect its citizens and their property from foreign enemies.

It's not my job to protect my house from a foreign military that might want to come into it and steal things from me.

Nor should I install radar systems to alert me to enemy aircraft. That's why the USA spends the better part of a trillion dollars on the military.

That's my government's job and they should do that job. That's what I'm saying.

If a foreign government sent boats full of marauders to our shores to steal from people's homes and stores, you think the government would look the other way?

I don't. I think they'd blow the boats up and kill the marauders.

Good luck though when the person who learned how to be an assassin/shark and was able to build and maintain the wealth has handed it off to their kids (or grandkids) who probably never had much contact with them (what with all the assassin/sharkiness), and are now trying to judge well managed and safe from what they were exposed to as children. Which was probably massive wealth, and people who aren't always scamming you (because the filtering happened off screen).

Especially since you either have to pick someone (or a small group) from the set to judge, or have to deal with an ever increasing and ever more distant from the original wealthbuilding set of decision makers.

Definitely possible to do, but very, very, very unlikely and rare (based on clear examples around us).
Gödel showed that everything is tautological if you go low enough, but invoking it against yourself feels like an automatic point for the other side.

This is a junk article written by a right winger who writes for the "American Council on Science and Health" which you can read more about here:

https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2013/10/american-counci...

This article was written just to troll up attention for his book that came out the same year (2012) with a title that makes the bias more obvious: "Feel-Good Fallacies and the Rise of the Anti-Scientific Left."

I've never heard of the guy before, but it only took a minute of googling to find that out.

I recommend people try the "lateral reading" technique when you come across articles like this. Essentially, Google the source to see if it's biased and unreliable like this is. More on lateral reading and the SIFT technique (stop, investigate, find, trace)

The Wu and Zhao paper [0] you cited is based on this paper [1] by Zhou et al, whose conclusions were questioned by this preprint [2].

In fact, the paper [3] cited in the top comment has the following response to the Wu and Zhao paper you cited:

> The recent acquisition of the FCS by SARS-CoV-2 via a natural insert was proposed by Wu and Zhao (2021) on the basis of the existence of FCS in other, more distant Betacoronaviruses with different loop positions to SARS-CoV-2 and the existence of a partial natural insert in the same region in RmYN02 (Zhou et al. 2020a). The reliability of the conclusions of Zhou et al. (2020a) has been questioned by Deigin and Segreto (2020), who particularly challenge the claim that RmYN02 has an insertion around the site of the FCS insertion in SARS-CoV-2 and instead point to a two amino acid deletion in RmYN02 at that locus. Therefore, RmYN02 should not be used as evidence of the natural origin of SARS-CoV-2′s FCS until its claimed insertion is properly validated.

Healthcare is a component of the CPI, outlined here:

https://www.bls.gov/cpi/factsheets/medical-care.htm

Since I am a health economist, I can tell you that it is subject to many of the same problems other goods face: prices increase and this is generally observable (though much harder in healthcare than other areas!), while quality improves all the time but measuring quality is quite hard, perhaps also harder than in other classes of goods.
Interesting, I think you're onto something, though others may find it obvious. Any other tricks for filtering time sinks which don't give value without putting the time in?
