Most people go to some lengths to ensure that their health doesn't present in such a way that it needs to be an excuse for their behaviour. Especially in autistic communities. A certain amount of masking seems to be a requirement to function as a responsible adult.
How do you think about the k/q split? Do you ever drop into k or use q exclusively?

Is q mostly just longer aliases for k verbs or do the semantics differ?
Tesla stock also suffered quite a lot, AFAIK that was how Musk was going to finance the deal.

That said, Tesla doesn't have "more than %5 fake users" problem that came out just as the deal was closing. I guess Musk is a luck man.
That is quite misleading as it has been.
It is part of the ASD in these days [1, 2].

Third possibility is getting Musk to withdraw his offer. The article comments on missed intermediate growth targets. Musk has put the deal on holding pending proof that the user count is not inflated by fake accounts. So I see this all as an attempt by Parag to "save" the company from Musk and his goal to make it an open "free speech" platform.

I don’t understand how an acquisition offer that takes months to finalize doesn’t account for changes in the stock price. Is that standard practice?
You're making a blind sweeping generalization here.

As has been repeatedly pointed out in the past[1][2][3], it is only the priming-related chapter (called 'The Associative Machine' in the book) that put "too much faith in under-powered studies". Not the entire book!

The book is a synthesis of forty years of Kahneman's research and his collaboration with Tversky. A wide range of topics are covered; and it still absolutely merits reading.

Isn't the deal on hold because the price might be too high for a bunch of spam accounts? If so, I'm not sure what you're on about.

Sounds reasonable to confirm the actual number of spam accounts before spending 44 billion. Likewise I double check the service history of used cars too.
It is true that Ukraine has been historically divided politically between Ukrainian and Russian speakers, but the Russian invasion seems to have pushed that firmly into the past. The are constant, countless Russian speaking Ukrainians speaking out in horror at what is being done - to them! The regions that have suffered worst from shelling of civilian areas and mass murder, mass graves, etc are actually the Russian speaking regions. Putin has initiated a huge demographic shift in Ukrainian population by overwhelmingly massacring Russian speaking Ukrainians, and they are not happy about it.

Social media and the news is full of Russian speaking Ukrainians describing the killing of their family members, destruction of their homes, abuse by Russian troops.
>Musk should just pay the break fee of $1bn, and renegotiate for $42.69 or whatever meme number he fancies. Why pay $42bn total for something when you can get it for $30bn.

Perhaps because the board and shareholders will be far more inclined to reject an offer from Musk after he feigned buying it one time and backed out?
Does chocolate have teams of behavioral psychologists designing every aspect of the experience of its acquisition and consumption in order to create a situation in which a huge chunk of our society is unable to stop compulsively consuming it to a point where it's negatively affecting their lives?
Generally yes, for a few reasons related to the pursuit of growth itself:

* Growth is always a core pursuit, and what is required for growth is not always to the benefit of the core audience/user/customer

* With growth, more humans get involved. Harder to manage many people and keep everyone on the same page, so systems and processes are developed to standardize and remove human error and reduce costs. A lot of babies go out with the bathwater in the process, and it's tough to avoid.

* The bigger the org gets, the more it has to hire just to fill positions instead of hiring people who are truly the right fit. This has a compounding negative effect and further spreads decay.

I think there's a sweet spot in size that varies for every org, but it's hard to know what that is: there are problems at every stage of company growth and tomorrow always seems like it's going to be better than today. In the early days it is. Eventually, without warning, it isn't.

To be fair, it was a distinct diagnosis from autism until relatively recently. It was "absorbed" into autism in DSM 4 or 5.

So if he was diagnosed with Asperger's in the past, he would now be considered to be on the autism spectrum.

It seems like there are 4 categories of Twitter users:

1. Blue checks

2. People who are “obviously” people (PII listed)

3. “Anonymous people”. I see a lot of theses, people with the name “iluvcrypt0” and an emoji of a Pokémon.

4. “Obvious” bots.

From looking at thread responses on twitter I think group 3 is probably the biggest, On the Luna thread someone posted to a link of posts that were implying they lost all their money due to Luna crashing, and it was a lot of group 3 posters. but of course each of these categories has a certain percentage likelihood that they are a bot. Im sure there are a few blue checks that slipped through and there are probably a few “obvious bots” who manually post.

The question is really the makeup of group 3. How many people who seem like anonymous users are actually bots, and can they prove that (when of course Twitter is incentivized to err low)

Also, either way, group 3 doesnt seem like they are contributing to the marketplace of ideas, they seem more like trolls/shit posters.
You're right, I was using 'timestampz' when I should have been using 'timestamptz', (or 'timestamp with time zone') thanks for that.
Whenever I see someone describe how small something they've written as a replacement for a big library is, I wonder what they've discarded in order to get it so small.

Normally it's backwards compatibility, but in this case it appears to be "everything".
That’s up to your country, not to the company handling the payments.

Edit: Never mind, didn’t realize they called this out as something they handle.
>But if Twitter is found to be misrepresenting those numbers, they have way more serious problems than if the Musk deal falls through. They've then opened themselves up to litigation by the SEC and investors that they materially misled investors.

Well, yeah, this goes for every single public company (including Tesla).
While you've described his behaviour quite accurately, I don't believe he's a fool. This could of course be due to the marketing buzz and fanboyism around him which I might have imbibed myself but I don't believe he's a fool.

Squaring his public behaviour with his presumed intelligence suggests that he's doing all this for some specific purpose. Either it's marketing to a certain contingent that he's interested in selling to. Perhaps it's brand building to help hiring or something else for one of his companies. His movie cameos, shitposts etc. all seem to be calculated to create a connection between him and a younger demographic. Or maybe, I'm over intellectualising and he's just drunk on his own image or power. Can't really say.

I don't particularly "like" the guy. But then again, I make it a point to try not to have an emotional opinion about any public figure. The default position is "ignore" and that's where I'm still at.
Can you make any recommendations for replacement of dairy products? Personally i found that dairy stuff (cheese especially) is the one thing that seems to not have any acceptable plant based replacement (IMHO)

Most other vegan alternatives aren't good, but they are toleratable. The vegan cheeses i tried so far however were absolutely atrocious.
It's possible, but it's still more difficult and dangerous. I have cycled in Finland in the snow, and it is objectively worse than in the dry or wet (albeit better than it is here in the UK).

For example, cycling across parks or crossing between lanes, there's usually the odd snow drift or edge between the ploughed lanes. If you're not careful, you can lose traction going across those or even it can be frozen solid and you can hit it like a kerb. Then when it's just starting to get cold, before the streets are being gritted, you're much more vulnerable to black ice patches.

Even on a well ploughed, gritted surface, the grip is still nowhere near comparable to the rain. As a bonus, the grit is really harsh on your bike's drivetrain, so you have to wash your bike thoroughly every time you ride.
Yes but I think they are heavy on the lacto part, which I don't think a common person can follow.
An alternate explanation is Parag knows this is going to get ugly and is sparing his exec team from going through this with him.

Only if either (a) both networks use the same channel or (b) the networks use different bands (i.e. one is 5ghz and the other is 2.4ghz).

In order to scan usefully you need to listen on more than one channel from each band. Hence, the interruptions.

I suppose in theory if you were using a 5ghz network you could scan all the 2.4ghz frequencies. In practice there is little demand for this, so the proprietary firmwares don't support it (at least some, and often all, of the scan routine happens in firmware).

Totally agree.

Cca 75% of pesticides/herbicides are used for meat & dairy production (we need 75% of agriculture land for it).

> They harm billions of animals.

And they harm people, too. Pesticide bioaccumulation in milk has been linked to Parkinson's disease, for example.

> But not using them would condemn us to a subsistence economy.

I'm not sure that's true.

There is a lot of regenerative agriculture styles not needing pesticides/herbicides. Current agriculture practices are oriented on mass scale and low prices - when you modify that need, you can have much greater yields, but have to change your way of thinking about it.

One example (sorry, have to return to work process). We've all seen the large fields of wheat, so large, you can see the earth curvature. And not a single tree in sight.

If you remove all the nature, tile it, seed large swaths of land with a monoculture, you remove a place for wildlife to live in.

Without predators (foxes, owls) your crop gets all eaten by mice, which overpopulate easily. So you have to use pesticides (which we then eat in our food & drink in our water).

If you have a monoculture, then bugs easily propagate and there is nothing to stop them and you'll have a large loses. But if you stop planting monoculture (maybe alternating rows of crops with rows of trees, and some bushes & flowers between them), bugs will have harder time to infect whole harvest and there is enough natural predators from the bug world to take care of them.

Biodiversity is the key.

I'd argue this kind of event doesn't ruin anything. Maybe on this very specific server where they are deliberately playing without any future, but in the game it self if you know that you are going to release more expansions having this kind of epic send off is cool as hell.

Think of World of Warcraft. Sure there is the "race to world first", but how much cooler would it be if there was one boss that could only be killed once? Yeah, maybe that wouldn't make much sense now when people actually make a living off of playing the game, so that would push out most people from even attempting to get the rare kill, but at least it would have consequences in the game instead of just waiting until next week to kill the same big-bad-guy again.

> Perhaps he has decided that the joke would be even funnier if he signed a merger agreement, lined up billions of dollars of financing from banks and equity partners, committed to a $1 billion breakup fee and a specific-performance right in the merger agreement, got through antitrust review and a shareholder vote, showed up at the closing and said “nope, just kidding!” I mean, that would be very funny.

> this could be a relatively cheap way of mortally wounding Twitter

Interesting idea, albeit very high risk, however what's the motivation? Say he's right, sure he walks away with $1B minus his legal fees. But if he looses, he own Twitter... but wanted to "mortally wound" it.

Not sure he needs to do something high risk like this for the potential of $1B, and based on how much he uses Twitter I'm not sure he wants to take it down.
You might be overthinking this - anyone who's in the office can already know who else is in there and for how long, so I don't believe making that information available digitally actually reveals any more data - if someone wanted to keep tabs on people they could just as well do it with the old system by coming into the office and looking around.

No clocks to tick - no energy spent

If only it were that simple. Logic gates take time to settle, and each input gate switch or transient will have a ripple effect on all its downstream gates, which can be many in a complex circuit. Synchronous logic elements such as latches will block the spurious transients from propagating beyond the next clock barrier, but if you lack those, you also lose the protection against propagating logic transients. And every transient draws a little bit of power.

Imagine the ripple effects of a 64-bit 2-operand multiplier (simple ripple-carry, as it's the easiest to reason about). Since the inputs are probably not gated either, each of the 4096 adder tree inputs may arrive at a different time, and each input has an average of 96 downstream gates (64/2 adder tree height, 128/2 carry propagation length). The carry propagation is done through and-gates which have an attenuating effect on the propagation length (each input bit flip only has 50% percent change of propagating the change), but the xor-gates for the adder propagate every transient. On average, you still get 64 transients per adder input transient, and 2048 (64 and-gates * 50%) transients for every operand bit flip. That's a lot to account for in your worst-case power envelope.

Yes, asynchronous designs are more flexible to work with. But they are less predictable in operation, not just in propagation delay but also in power usage. And you still need some form of inter-module communication, and that communication needs to account for differences in signal path length -- which is much easier to do if you can refer to a global clock.

I'm sure there have been successful asynchronous designs for specific applications (e.g. analog feedback control loops), and I haven't kept up with the last ten years of IC development which is a lifetime, but most asynchronous logic designs weren't necessarily faster than their synchronous implementations last time I checked.

There's lots that's interesting to me about this but one is how links provided by subreddits themselves might or might not reflect actual related topics. There's a couple of subs I'm familiar with that have relatively large related subreddits I wasn't aware of before, that aren't linked to or mentioned. Maybe in some cases there's political histories I'm unaware of?

The new reddit design is so problematic in so many ways. So many of the "related subreddits" sidebars (all?) are just eliminated in the redesigned site.
It's precisely this narcissistic personality which some people love about him.

Personally I blame marvel movies. Many immature people think the world is a superhero flick and Elon Musk is a real-life Tony Stark: arrogant billionaire genius who is going to fix the world from his superlab.
This is a pretty slick app! One thing I notice is that there are a lot of options in things like the insert menu with tags that aren't super popular. Maybe prioritizing more commonly used options would help with the UX? Also once you're logged in, there's no way to get back to the landing page without logging out.
Congrats on your launch! But honestly, your site gives me some huge red flags regarding your service:

You don't have a legally valid "Impressum" on fruits.de: It points to fanbase.com and that one isn't even mentioning fruits.de. So, as a German startup, it seems you're at least bending German and EU law by not providing the information necessary for proving services on the domain fruits.de. And as a result, as a potential user, I can't trust you with my business.

Moreover, I couldn't find information about your "sales tax" claim. You know better than me that selling digital products in the EU and across borders can be kind of tricky, depending on what you are selling (e.g. ebook vs software), if you're selling B2B or B2C, and depending on the origin of your customer. As a user, I'd need much more information about how you handle this and the bookkeeping you mentioned, but it somehow looks like you're relying on PayPal as the payment gateway and are not handling sales tax / USt by yourself?

And no: As someone looking for a simple solution to sell my digital products, I don't want do book a consultation for answers to the questions above.
