For many many years I didn't understand why the atomic bomb was considered somehow "worse" than mass firebombing like Tokyo or Dresden.

In the end a friend gave me a good explanation (ironically a Japanese friend who'd attended high school in the US). He said it seemed "unfair" because only one bomb was dropped, while in a mass attack, seemingly much more effort is expended by the attacker and, more importantly, the target has a "chance to fight back" (forget how ineffective anti aircraft fire was in those days, and still is).

After learning that, when this topic came up I would query about where the objections lay and surprisingly, my friend's explanation was quite common -- probably the majority -- even if the person didn't frame it that way.

This is less clear. A difference between a juridical and a natural person is that you can't simply swap out the decision-making apparatus of a natural person. You can, if need be, to a juridical person like a corporation, so its not clear what purpose disbanding the firm (whether assets not needed to be obligations are returned or seized—the former being more analogous to the death penalty) serves.

If you read the story of famous marxists on wikipedia (Lenin & Mao for example), you'll see a lot of parallels with the movement. The BLM org corresponds to Red Guard probably: the core force of the movement. That's why I think they've chosen a fist as their symbol (can you imagine a peaceful organisation rooting for unity using this symbol?). And just like other marxist regimes, those at the top quickly give up ideals, and start enriching themselves (I'm talking about that house shopping spree of the former BLMGN leader).

Sure, the reason they did the collectivization beyond the ideology is so they could then control that production and channel it towards the uses they desired.

Total production was expected to go down. The regime was very well aware of that. But their control over that production was increased exponentially.

And considering the industrialization, a lot of that went into exports where it was exchanged for industrial goods.

Sorry for your g-grandfather, must have been a horrible time. Its insane that back then they considered anybody a 'wealthy farmer' who had like 1-2 cows.

You're trying to pull somebody into an argument that they're not interested in. The argument they were making is that approving of something that causes Japanese suffering because it causes Japanese suffering is not the same as approving of something that causes Japanese suffering for its strategic value or necessity to end the war.

You're arguing against a position that the person you're arguing against hasn't taken.

It translates very well actually. I've tried with English/French and English/German with very good results.

I think it is quite well understood that deciphering a language without external information is possible? But GPT-3 was a recent example that I think proves it. There are probably tons of literature about this question. I think aliens would be able to understand lots of things about Earth just by listening in.

You can get numbers, probabilities and mutual information scores and vectors and what have you, but if you can't ground them in anything, you have no way of getting to meaning, and therefore no way of translating.

Well, GPT-3 translates very well, so this argument can not be correct. I don't see why it would be like that? It seems quite intuitive that it would be possible to extract meaning.

To me it seems like the password is 14 bytes, because they're 14 characters (112 bits). How do you get 90 bits?

It also uses 96 possible characters for each digit. Just storing the 96^14 different passwords without even adding their corresponding SHA hashes would require 5646 yottabytes. Which is more than 4 orders of magnitude larger than all the world's digital storage capacity combined together.

I dislike this particular example because waterfront views aren't necessarily tied to boat accessibility. I have relatives in Long Island that live five houses from a marina and have absolutely no water view what-so-ever, however they have exceedingly good access to their boat which they sail regularly. I like the gist of your argument but the specifics are pretty questionable to me and I'm struggling to think of a similar fair argument that doesn't also have the "under-utilizer" reaping some direct benefit from the same quality that the "proper-utilizer" would fully exercise. The easiest example for me to think of is public transit, a lot of people make no use of public transit for their work commute but still use it when going out for the evening or get a benefit from it through their children's usage. City nodes tend to specialize pretty efficiently, the fact that people who want to live near a movie theater often compete with people wanting to live near transit is due to the fact that those attributes aren't nearly as independent as you'd think. Theaters and entertainment venues in general tend to clump around good public transit accessibility. The waterfront view and the ability to easily fish are two different services, but they're supplied by the same object so it isn't particularly easy to separate the two[1].

1. I mean, unless you're talking about Boston in the 90's where the Charles was a pristine beautiful river that only an absolute madman would ever dare to fish on or some other similar pollution driven limitation of services... but that also shifts the original point since fisherman have no desire to live close to the Charles (and might actually be harmed by having to boat up and down the Charles every day when compared to living in Chelsea or Southie.
I agree. Although the space industry does have various ways of measuring the cost uncertainty, including the cost covariance in a complex system. (A good book on this is Probability Methods for Cost Uncertainty Analysis)

>A lot of these questions will only be answered with time and experience.

I guess that's a bit of what I was poking at. In my mind, there's still a lot of uncertainty with the cost claims, but I see so many people talking about how it's going to bring launch costs down X% and they seem to say it with relative certainty.

I have faith that SpaceX will make great strides in this, but at the moment it seems to be a big unknown, at least in terms of magnitude. My biggest worry is that every misstep will layer additional quality oversight that will drive up cost. An example being the strut failure from a few years back that was related to a supplier material issue. As a remedy, SpaceX now does additional supplier quality control checks. I can imagine a few decades of similar issues being fixed may drive their processes to be more costly.

Unfortunately, nobody said "western musical ideas of consonance is rooted in simple harmonic ratios". The whole point of Plomb & Levelt's work (recommended if you have no read it) is that provides an explanation for consonance that has simple harmonic ratios as an existential but insufficient component. From their work, what matters is not the ratios of the two fundamentals, because there are essentially no natural tones that consist of only the fundamental (1). Instead, consonance/dissonance is a result of the sum of the consonsance relationships between each pair of partials in the two tones.

This is a good overview (linked elsewhere in the comments): https://sethares.engr.wisc.edu/consemi.html

Sethares extended their conclusions a bit by noting that since the partial spectrum is the definition of timbre, the most consonant/dissonant intervals would vary by timbre, which they claimed is observed in the real world.

(1) Indeed, the first step of their work, defining the "human dissonance response curve" relies on being able to use a signal generator to create pure sine tones.

You're engaging in pseudo-intellectual quantification that is meaningless and unbound by anything objective. But that's besides the point.

The point is, the U.S. was pulled into war by Japan and did not have had any obligation to lose even one more person to end the conflict. And yet the calculus was clear: the loss of life by the U.S. was going to significantly increase per unit of effort/victory as it approached mainland Japan.

> doesn't make those lives worthless

No one is arguing this. But when it comes to the life of my son or brother vs. the life of someone I don't know, I know what my choice will be every single time. And I would bet my entire net worth that 999 out of 1,000 people would choose similarly in that situation. The instinct to stay alive completely outstrips armchair intellectualism and 20/20 hindsight.
I've confirmed this experimentally. (As in, I asked a bunch of people to "pick a number from 1 to 10").

But that was a long time ago, and I wonder if the common knowledge that '7' is the most popular would sway people to avoid it. I know I do. I should re-run this.

In any case, it's clear that 7 is the most random digit, right? The other digits are either even or otherwise "nice". 7 is chaotic and unpredictable. 7 sells loose cigarettes to middle school kids. 7 will leave the shopping cart in the middle of the parking lot. Of all the digits in [1-10], it's 7 who'll more likely than not be the one who left the bathroom stall without flushing.

It is astonishing to me that the most basic of memory hacks are regarded as dark magics these days. Many things take zero extra effort to make orders of magnitude faster if you are simply aware of some basic concepts.

For instance, if you know a collection of things is going to be bounded by a reasonable quantity (e.g. less than 1mm) and that you will frequently need to perform a full linear scan of these things, you should consider using an array rather than some b-tree or other pointer-chasing type (List/Dictionary/etc). This is literally a simple "Should I use List<T> or T[MaxElements]" determination. The effects of this are very profound if many scans of these items need to be made per unit time (i.e. a game loop).

You can take this one step further by trying to make the type used in the collection a value type rather than a reference type. Depending on language/runtime/problem space, this can give you another order of magnitude uplift. And, its pretty much as simple as "public [readonly] struct" vs "public class".
