It isn't that Russia, China and India have gone in with each other so much as they have all rejected the unipolar world run by the United States. It is much more within the national interest of China and India to maintain (and expand) their economic relations with resource-rich Russia than it is to punish their own economies at the behest of the United States. Many people, for better or worse, are convinced that continued US global hegemony is not only desirable, but absolutely essential. These are the people who talk solemnly about the importance of the "rules-based, liberal international order". What they mean by that is the ability of the United States to make the rules by which other countries must abide, but which we are exempt. The reality is that the multi-polar world has already arrived. You're absolutely right that we'd be better off figuring out how to best survive (and thrive) in that world instead of flailing around in a desperate, futile attempt to maintain control.

Athletes spend tens or hundreds of hours training for every point scored.

Tenacity is a strong signal I look for when hiring. Not being afraid to ask for help but being willing to put in the time when it is needed. Sports are open-ended. With school exams you know how many points you can achieve so you know when to stop. In life you don't know how many points can be scored or how much you'd need to train to do so meaning that you need a lot more self-assessment.

I don't use sports as a metric but they seem a lot more valid than many signals I see other reviewers use.
Always felt like karma to me even if it was not intentional. Surprised this is not talked about more.
Sweden does have great mountains and hydropower, which makes integrating wind power easier. (Or even some solar too. It's bad in the winter but otherwise tends to anticorrelate with wind, which is good.) And nukes as well.

Also, the international spot power market actually started with Nordpool in the nordics, where it expanded to Europe. The countries in Europe buy and sell electricity all the time and it is a tremendous benefit. https://www.nordpoolgroup.com/en/maps/#/nordic

Since we should keep the oil in the ground that current thermal engines uses, the energy input will be from a different source when we change from burning oil to electrical engines. The primary energy input should be from the wind, sun, elevated water, nuclear bonds and geothermal.

The change from 30-40% efficient engines to 90+% efficient engines is if we burn the oil in a power plant. It is an improvement, but not a sufficient big one compared to actually keeping the oil in the ground.

The math PhDs are for quants, sounds like you want to work as a dev. I think they still have very high standards for those, but it's probably quite similar overall to getting a FAANG job.

Depending on their strategy and stack they may have specific backgrounds that they look for for some roles, eg telecoms signal engineering, networking, maybe compilers or UNIX internals, but it's probably worth just giving it a shot with whatever your experience is. A finance background isn't required, they probably also won't care if you trade on your own. So I guess the advice is just practice some LeetCode.

Since you asked about Jane Street, they're famous for using OCAML, so that'd be a good thing to look into if you want to demonstrate a desire to work for them specifically.
Many of the contracts have their audits listed, you can read through the audits to see whether its safe to use or not. But as always, you should make sure to do your own testing before deploying to production.

No, the argument for OxyContin was two-fold and targeted at doctors:

There's a clear gap between steps 4 and 5. Our current definitions and standard usage of consciousness are inconsistent. But step 5 requires "all relevant knowledge and power", which we almost certainly don't yet have. Therefore 6 does not follow.

The main advantage of nuclear power plants is constant power output at basically zero emissions combined with a super small footprint. Having a constant power output is worth a lot, that's why it makes sense funding them.

IMO there's little that approaches Ikea quality+value for lighting. I went all in on Hue way back when and none of it's lasted (some bulbs died within a couple years), and the current app is garbage. A couple years ago I bought a Kichler fixture for roughly double what the nearest Ikea equivalent cost and… yikes. The build quality was not great and the replacement wasn't a whole lot better. Installation was far more fiddly than anything I've bought from Ikea.

I've been looking at Ikea for kitchen cabinets and while there are some shops that'll do comparable quality Ikea has most of them beat on price, drawer hardware, and ease of discovery. I was thumbing through one catalog that had a whole formula to figure out how much your cabinet would cost. With Ikea the prices are right there and they're generally lower than comparable quality RTA stuff from other brands. Plus the warranty is better and installation is less fiddly.

There's just not a lot out there that's just a little bit better than Ikea. There's Ikea and then there's high end stuff.
Understood, and dang agrees with you in this instance.

It's still against guidelines and generally not a good practice. The intro and article ... don't seem to bring much to bear on one another. I'd look for an alternative way of either re-casting the article in a standalone piece, or of posting the original article.

This is why the Mazda MX-5 is so good
That's a pretty dumb article, based on one big technical assumption, probably written to spread fear in Europe and weaken public resolve. A nuclear attack by Russia on Ukraine was repeatedly designated unacceptable by both Germany and the US. It also wouldn't really trigger article five according to most experts, but there are still lots of other options. That way it wouldn't fracture NATO, if anything it would push it together even more closely. Russia would certainly become a global pariah, with noone being able to do business with them anymore. On top of that, some alternative suggestions to a full-on article 5 response were recently thrown around, ranging from stepping up towards ultimate sanctions (anyone still doing trade with Russia will also get sanctioned) all the way to the US sinking the black sea fleet in a conventional strike or establishing a no fly zone over Ukraine. Putin is playing the long game because he too knows that he can't break NATO with nukes and he can't break Ukrainian lines with reservists. So fear (that gets spread via articles like this) is his only useful weapon right now.

Exactly, which is like saying "eating a high protein breakfast increases athletic performance." It may be true, and it may be applicable to the average athlete, but even if such a study was proven conclusively, I would not expect the top athletes in the world to change their breakfasts because of it - they have already achieved an outlier result and changing something is more likely than not to cause mean regression.

It's a common trope to state bad input taints meat taste but I think it's unproven. I think it's more likely that apex diet concentration of complex organic molecules causes taste differences.

Feed pigs on acorns exclusively, yes you get a specific ?malic? Acid outcome in fat.

Feed sheep on seaweed, same with iodine. Corn vs grass fed beef, same.

But "predators eat trashy meat so their flesh is trashy" doesn't ring true. "Obligate carnivore predators in the feline family process meat differently, and emit proteins into their own flesh" may be a mouthful but it's where I am.

> is a legal difference, of course, between "truly anonymous" and merely effectively so

Which is an important difference when it comes to AML. We don't have anonymous corporations in America. Computers have made it easier to create and track daisy chains of entities, which makes tracing beneficial ownership difficult. But that's a far cry from it being U.S. policy to encourage that chaining.

> the designated trustee knows who the owner is, and if subpoenaed, will disclose that the owner is an Isle of Man corporation with a Panama address

They would also disclose the signer, likely a lawyer and/or registrar, along with the method and contents of communications with them. This is tedious. But one can only do one or two hops through these methods before running out of (a) people who will keep your secret without (b) losing your chain of ownership and with it control of the underlying asset.
TSMC gets 1-year U.S. license for China chip expansion
That seems like the definition of a slippery slope, and not the fallacy. How do you ever quantify "intangible harm". If I make a YouTube video and call a bunch of people peepee poopoo heads and they actually experience genuine emotional trauma from such an abhorrent act, am I then liable for paying them hundreds of millions?

I'm not saying that emotional damage isn't very real and devastating, but it's certainly not something on which our courts should base their outcomes. It's too subjective, not provable, and very difficult to quantify.
You're demanding a the hard problem be addressed from a point of view that doesn't see the hard problem as a thing.

You might as well demand the atheist explanation for how god created the world. The atheist must deny the premise of the question, they can't give an answer in the terms of the question.

"We have no explanation for how there can be experiences/qualia"

We do, but not in the terms you set out. The explanation is that that there is not a you that experiences qualia, two separate things. Rather the experiences ARE YOU. There's nothing they happen to. Their happening is you.

You don't have to agree with it. But the hard question is not ducked. It is not a coherent question in this view.
Note that you have an option for a "Ground view" in TFA which lets you get a similar view, but real time and interactive.

Subsidies for renewables are very reliably seen to drive prices down faster than would have happened without, producing always a very large net gain.

Nukes have been heavily subsidized forever, but prices have only ever risen.
> The research I've seen (slight) is that a random person is, on average, a more competent statesman than the average politician. (This is a result of the self-selection bias in people choosing a political career.)

This seems extremely unlikely just by virtue of the fact that the average person has an IQ of 100 and the average MP doesn’t. Practically guaranteed to be above 115. There are very large differences in education. The median voter in the US is over 50 and never went to, never mind graduate from, college.
Ahhhh of course! I wonder if there is a game-theoretically-sound way to smooth out the distribution. At first glance it seems not, because chunks (probably not using the right term for torrent file partitions) need to be addressable/discoverable. However, what if there was a way to couple “popular” chunks with slightly less popular chunks, such that seeding becomes some what more equitable for, say, the top 30-40% of files

It seems doubtful that hundreds of thousands of human neurons would lead to consciousness.

Looking over the list of top selling games of all time, many of them are indie games.

> "just sensing of ..."

We know that physical systems can sense phenomena in the world. We doubt that they experience anything when they do so. Even if we create a Hofstadterian "strange loop" so that we sense our own sensing, that does not give rise to "experience".

I concede that it could be a matter of scale, but a photosensor that knows that it glows yellow when it senses red does not have an experience.
Smart contracts are just pieces of code that run on "the blockchain". They can be pretty much anything: currency-like tokens, NFTs, marketplaces like opensea, exchanges like uniswap, etc.

Once they're uploaded to the blockchain, they're there permanently. That's really scary, because it's very difficult to write complicated code without bugs. When smart contracts have bugs, you can have massive hacks where literally billions of dollars are stolen.

Because the consequences are so high, people end up paying developers a ludicrous amount of money to write and deploy (i.e. upload to the blockchain) these contracts. A lot of projects also pay auditors thousands to read/review the smart contract code. This is pretty wasteful, because most contracts end up being the exact same thing: I'm making it up, but probably 80% of the code on ethereum is for NFTs.

This site seems to be aggregating all of the most common contracts and audits so people can reuse code that has already been approved.
> The "we don't understand" is not true anymore. The reality is that there are so many factors affecting a certain visible outcome that it's hard to specify a root cause.

When I first saw this I thought “WHY”? It is worth knowing first that the art is untouched as it is protected by a glass barrier.

Next worth considering, they’re right about oil :/

You know, the North Sea (in which Britain rests) has been drained of oil since WWII. That’s an enormous deposit, all of which used up building an infrastructure that has since rusted and rotted away.

Looking forward, if we are to rebuild everything we depend upon every generation to come to establish our quality of life, this debt of resource will leave us in a predicament of incomprehensible disparity within these “kids” lifetime.

A reminder that we owe our comfortable convenient quality of life to oil (not how smart we are.) one gallon of oil contains the energy potential of one thousand man hours (converted to heat, work, or form of all things useful to us.)

Worth shouting about after all perhaps.
The grid can be balanced by the application of market forces. (If there's an electrical shortage, prices go up. If there's a surplus, prices go down. The incentives are all there to encourage producers to produce power during shortages.)

I was thinking more about pollution or nuclear waste management. A coal plant that just buys coal at market prices and sells electricity at market prices isn't paying for externalities unless they're taxed on CO2 and particulate emissions.
It would surely cost a few trillion to deploy the moon base and railguns capable of deploying that much material on target, but doesn’t require any physics-bending materials or processes.

It would be an ongoing process of refinement and launch, there are some papers that have done the napkin math on the launch rate and energy requirements and it’s all perfectly feasible in the context of preventing an earth-shattering calamity.

The only problem with having a human-controllable thermostat over the entire Earth is that no one will agree on how to set it.
Ah yes, how dare I challenge a fisherman whose income is based on 'harvesting' from the ocean (imagine an entire industry the existed by going into national forests and harvesting whole herds of elk or flocks of birds, people wouldn't stand for it, but somehow fisherman are ok). I read through his previous comments, nothing indicates it is beyond the pale for me to ask he expand on this 'rebound'. He stated there was a rebound, I asked what 'rebound' means as he provided pretty nebulous information. Should I not be allowed to ask him to expand on his statement? Especially since he claims his 'rebound' allows him to call 'bullshit' on others.
In theory, but an unfortunate amount of biomass burnt in Europe is old growth forest being cut down in the US and shipped across the Atlantic. So renewable, but it would take hundreds of years to renew, and likely won't be renewed.\
