To be honest, I think that is in your head. Why? Because I've been on both sides of these conversations, you need something done the other companies engineer says it's going to be X and you want to know why since to you it seems rather simple but you don't know all the things that happen in the other system so what on the face of it can be simple. I've also got to explain to other people why task X is delayed by the third party and why what seems like a simple task is now taking a lot longer.

I think it's more than you're being questioned and you don't like that and feel like your word should be enough.

Even more severely, I think this is pseudoscience -- though a genuinely borderline case "with real value".

All theyre doing is feeding in pixel patterns and object information for specific scenes, and then calling the models ability to detect general correlations in those scenes "solidity", "inertia", and the like.

Any time where patterns in correlations are taken as an explantory model, we have pseudoscience.

Yes, inertia/solidity/etc. is the right answer for why physical objects show those visual correlations. But pixel patterns in some images are NOT models of inertia, solidity, etc.

Just as correlations in pixel patterns in the sky is not a model of gravity. The right model, eg., is F=GMm/r^2 which are variables not even present in the data. So no correlative model of a night sky will ever be a model of gravity.

How would these people react if they learned that the Buddha said his teachings were to last only 1000 years* if women were not included in the Sangha? And will only last 500 years after women were included?:

> “But, Ānanda, if women had not obtained the Going-forth from the home life into homelessness in the Dhamma & Vinaya made known by the Tathāgata, the holy life would have lasted long, the true Dhamma would have lasted 1,000 years. But now that they have obtained the Going-forth from the home life into homelessness in the Dhamma & Vinaya made known by the Tathāgata, the holy life will not last long, the true Dhamma will last only 500 years.

Curiously, this sutta is left out of accesstoinsight.org, which is the leading source on the Internet for deriving the Buddha's authentic words (translated to English). What's your agenda, Bhikku Ṭhānissaro? Certainly not truth if your way is the way of omission.

Car manufacturers are in an extremely tight business and a very important part of their business is supply chain. It's not so much about how much the materials cost to build a car, but the complexity of managing a complex supply chain. The result is that it's extremely important for them to minimize the number of different components they have. It's extremely common across the car industry for manufacturers to share as many components as possible across as many vehicles as possible. This is why it used to be extremely common for car center consoles to have lots of blanked out buttons, they wanted to keep the main part the same even if you didn't purchase the optional extras that needed the buttons.

So if the heated steering wheel is only a little more expensive that the non-heated steering wheel then it's far better to just install the heated wheel on every car. At that point you might say well if it's on the car why not just include it in the price? Well that's just down to marketing strategy, they think they can make more money by charging extra to turn it on. At the end of the day they're there to make a profit margin and price discrimination is a fairly well understood sales strategy.
"Heated Seats Hacking 101"
Responsible stewardship of the UEFI Secure Boot ecosystem
That's assuming manufacturers wouldn't already include the price of rentable hardware in the cost of the car.

Would any manufacturers do that?

Why would a manufacturer fit in hardware for heated seats into a car, and not charge you for it? Because they hope you will subscribe to the heated seats?

This argument breaks down in markets like India, middle East, Malaysia etc where it's hot and humid, and nobody would want to use heated seats. If you don't subscribe, then it'll be a loss for the manufacturers who included the hardware and not charged you for it.

Of course, the sane thing would be to not offer heated seats at all in such markets, but as things stand today, heated seats are offered in these hot places (and nobody uses them AFAIK).

In the subscription-based future, here's how I think it'll be like:

- heated-seat hardware will be present in the car

- heated seats will be a rentable option

- manufacturers would include the price for it anyway in the cost of the car

=> customers lose

Cars are expensive as it is, so manufacturers can totally get away with it.

For Hindus, Buddha was just one of the 10 avatars of Vishnu and he came for a time and purpose.

Pentester's Promiscuous Notebook
You’ll have to learn a whole lot more about what we do know before your skepticism about what we don’t know holds much weight with other people.

The Higgs field and neutrinos are examples of things which we now know definitely exist but are extremely difficult to detect or barely interact with the EM which makes up most of our experience of the universe.

Skepticism of something we can’t see simply because we can’t see it should be tempered because there is plenty of precedence for difficult to detect things which end up very confidently real.

PBS Space Time YouTube videos are a good way to get initial exposure to a lot of what we know now.

Sutta central is the main Pali canon English translation source nowadays, also access to insight is mainly home of Thannisaro, not Bodhi

Sutta central has it https://suttacentral.net/an8.51/en/sujato?layout=plain&refer...

As for that sutta, the Pali canon is absolutely huge, the Mahayana sutras even more so, the majority of the latter haven’t been translated into English even. Most Buddhists, even historically, do not follow the sutras to the word, they use them as teaching guidance. There is nothing wrong with not accepting a sutra because you don’t think it is a good teaching or one that is helpful to you

EDIT also Buddhists I’ve spoken to generally reject that sutta, Mahayana Buddhists see all Pali suttas as lesser and provisional. The founder of my sect, Dogen, rejected the idea of mappo (age of dharma decline) entirely.

It is not historically accurate to think that all Buddhists generally accept all Buddhist texts and concepts, unless you specifically only mean some of the more hardcore Theravada who accept all of the Pali canon. Unfortunately in the west Buddhism is often conflated with just the Theravada, since the Mahayana seems scarier and more difficult to get into, however the latter is more popular and has developed more historically

In a T&M contract they literally pay you by the hour. Not pushing back on your estimate would be negligent.

I’m a Catholic (so I have … my own view on Buddhism) but I lived in SEA for a long time.

I want to say, this article is very good.

The buddhism as practiced in the west has very little to do with actual practices in the east. But, Buddhism is also very confusing, and it’s hard to say “what is the true buddhism” (mahayana, therevada, vajrayana and zen buddhism in Japan (formally mahayana) are all very different)

The White Stolen Generation have another angle of this story to tell. Australia essentially boosted its white population by kidnapping kids from low-income/poor/wrong-class families across the Empire and shipping them off to Australian families for adoption. Basically the same thing that was happening within Australia with the Stolen Generation (original land owners kids) was also being done at scale across the Commonwealth: human trafficking to increase the 'whiteness' of the population.

This is widely unacknowledged as a social ill in modern Australia, alas. But its still a source of immense pain and suffering for a lot of people - who had their kids ripped from them, and who had their families disappeared on the other end of a vague and distant memory of a boat ride that was supposed to be a fun summer break ..

A real tragedy that the British got away with their genocides.
I believe you're on to something here. I also heard that research and small startups in the US (and west in general) tend to take on more risk for potentially higher rewards.

But companies for years have outsourced everything from production to research to product development. And those contract developers both are culturally risk-averse and they also have strong financial incentives to take on only the minimum of risk necessary to get paid for their research contract.

And that's why the innovation speed of large US companies is limited by risk-reduction in Asia.

Delusions of grandeur and wanting to become the ruler of Mars? He's also said before that passengers can pay off their transit in an indentured servitude like fashion.

Accordingly, Disputes will be settled through self-governing principles, established in good faith, at the time of Martian settlement."
