I can relate about physical exercise—I had debilitating long covid symptoms for about six months with no end in sight. Could not work out, had to plan climbing stairs around my schedule so I'd have 20 minutes after to recover. Until I was forced to go on a business trip to Europe for two weeks where I was walking 20-30,000 steps a day and carrying luggage everywhere. Afterwards I felt 80-90% better, it was crazy. Still no way to know if that was just coincidence or not, but I keep seeing anecdotal stories about physical activity being key.
My ideal remote work would be:
Be available for meetings that may impact your work, if not work when ever you want but must meet project goals. For example, I'm most productive 10am - 3pm and 9pm - 2am. But I make do with "office hours" that have no bearing on my project dead lines.

There's arguments from both sides of the coin but, though I'm biased having worked remote for almost 5 years now, I think the remote-side usually wins the argument by simply being more reasonable. I see far fewer remote workers claiming that "everyone should work remote" and more in-office workers making sweeping claims that remote reduces creativity, reduces, productivity, or makes people lazy. The anti-remote folks even go as far as dismissing having the time to be around your kids or saving money by not commuting as being trivial benefits. Like, wtf mate? Nobody's telling you not to drive to an office every day.

Don't get me wrong, there are some remote fanatics that do the same thing, but they seem far fewer.
If a meteorite hits earth, aliens are discovered, quantum computing breaks encryption, someone launches a nuclear bomb, etc, any of those will affect the stock market by a lot. Technical analysis can't predict a meteorite or any of those other things, therefore it cannot work.

It "might work if nothing significant happens" but that is just a weasel way of saying it doesn't work.

Now if you're saying you decided to invest in something and you're trying to get an entrypoint and you spot a moment of large deviation from the mean and you use that to influence your operational buying mechanics like how you space out your buys or time them, that I can definitely see. But online you always see these two very different things mixed together.
Exactly right. Biometrics are more like usernames than passwords. They are on display for all, and immutable. I should be able to change my password. Ideally username too, but not an expectation most sites hold to.

I'd rather not have my username indelibly linked to my identity. for example, I should be able to delegate to my accountant, or let my kids do stuff on my steam account, etc. Not to mention using an indelible ID that is cross-site, meaning i have to use the same username on all suchlike sites and services. The temptation of having that singular id is so great, it is inevitable it will be known to all — including those corrupt governments who will use it for enhancing their power.

I honestly don't see an upside. Combine this with web attestation and I shudder a bit.
I think most of the "but you need human interaction" crowd isn't talking about their social life. It's much harder to collaborate with coworkers when you have no relationship with them. It's not impossible to have a relationship with coworkers when remote, but you have to put a lot more effort in than you would in person. Some companies are facilitating that, but some aren't.

They're not as easy to confidently and safely get as weed or coke. The first time you do acid you get a little tab that could be anything.

This is probably also the reason (I guess) shrooms are more popular than acid - you can grow them and you can see that they are literal mushrooms, rather than some mysterious chemical substance made by your friend's boyfriend's cousin's roommate.

Does anyone else think that WeWork, as a concept, still has potential? WFH has a lot of benefits for the employee, but it's clear that many employers still desire some face-to-face contact. WeWork was already going downhill pre-pandemic, but had it survived I wonder if it may have been the primary service for small/hybrid companies.

I am aware that WW had it's own business issues to deal with, but it's still salvageable, right?

I wonder why we need this very thing of AI generated. It's a luddite view of AI. Much like the need to distinguish between handcrafted versus machined products - is there a real utility to knowing this?

For educators looking at evaluating students, essays and the like - we possibly need different ways of evaluation rather than on written asynchronous content for communicating concepts and ideas.

The algorithms are trained on minimizing the difference between what the algorithm produces and what a human produces. The better the algorithms the less the difference. The algorithms are at the point where there is very little difference and it won’t be long until there is no difference.
average Human uses 2000 kcal of food per day (~10MJ) which is 2,32 kWh, that's what an EV uses to drive 10km (6mi). Using a Diesel car that much energy will drive you 1km (0.8mi).

That highly probable events actually happen can be a reasonable practical assumption, but definitely not a logical certainty.
It is the hard, probabilistic version of the sorites paradox: with few atoms and little time, any chemical process is unlikely; with a whole planet and a few billion years, chemical processes are very likely; at some intermediate sample size you can feel justified to assume that what you are interested in happens, but it is only a feeling, not a real qualitative threshold.
I agree with the parent and grandparent comments.

For me personally, the question is how long I hold out for a job that will pay the bills. E.g., without my kids needing to take out big college loans.

For one thing, I don't want to screw over an employer by taking a job that I know I'll leave as soon as something better-paying becomes available. Hopefully I'll find a decent job before I get that desparate.

That's not how the media and most people see it, unfortunately. Anything remotely mean or intolerant that happens to not be left leaning is auto-labelled far right. It's what I would argue is the silent and unlabeled bias of the media against conservatism.

Heck I'm labeled far-right just for suggesting that affirmative action is racist.
Sigh, no. You're asserting that a lot in this thread, but that's not what's happening. In my comment above, I linked to a great learning resource that directly addresses the questions ezrion raised, and is good reading if you're actually curious. Separately, I addressed the likely context in which the question is getting asked, and pointed out that the worldview that starts with creationism is thought-terminating, and should be reassessed as a foundation.

It's great to question any existing consensus. But do so with the intent of learning, not trying to sneak in a religious worldview. If you're going to push a religious agenda, be courteous and at least be up front about it.

I switched to carnivore 100% for a month when I started improving. I was taking mitochondrial supplements like megadosing B1/B2/B3/Niagen/NMN, CoQ10 + PQQ, L-carnitine, R ALA, pterostilbene. I took 1000-2000mg bovine lactoferrin with up to 120mg iron bisglycinate and 25-50mg benadryl for nights. I mixed my own AXA1125 (BCAA, Glutamine, NAC and Arginine + vitamin C) and took about 50g a day of that. I took endothelial stuff like nattokinase, serrapeptase, aspirin, diosmin:hesperidin, aescin, curcumin, quercetin, K2, ginkgo, pycnogenol/OPC, omega-3, kyolic, hawthorn berry. I ate 1 non-sweet chocolate a day (100% Lindt) to raise adiponectin and PQQ. I took like 5g of magnesium bisglycinate and potassium citrate a day. Daily workout was important even if it sometimes went to painful headaches which I controlled by ibuprofen and tylenol (the first two weeks were particularly horrible). Lately I added stuff like astragalus, artemisinin, dandelion root, boswellic acid, trans resveratrol, red beet, PEA + luteolin. I feel 1000x better than in February when I thought I could die at any moment.
No. That comparison is an insult to astrology.

While the made-up character is similar, Astrology is far richer in concepts, orchestration and story telling.

Technical analysis is the ultimate dumbification of market structure and dynamics, which in itself is a major dumbification of the formal economy, which in itself is a major simplification of the stuff-that-matters(TM).

The objective of technical analysis is to get as many low-information actors as possible to transact with as low-cost as possible technology (I would totally not be surprised if current "technical analysis" verbiage is 100% automated).

Aren't you getting the same spike protein when you're infected by COVID, which is more likely if you're not vaccinated? That would mean the vaccinations reduce your exposure to the spike protein.
Because the proving the human is legit is also the next obvious step, it's where many governments (democratic and not!) are heading. I mean it's not a huge leap to go from "this device number 1234 is legit to "paul bought device 1234" or "paul used device 1224 to access bank account 5678".

Compensation isn't proportional to the value you produce.

It never was.

The hiring market is a market. Prices in a market are set by supply and demand.

The value you produce only sets an upper limit on your compensation because companies don't want to lose money by employing people.
Yeah their messaging is a bit strange. Perhaps someone with more info on Arc can clarify, but their landing page makes a strong point about them being privacy-conscious, and their summary of their own terms of service is "TLDR: we won't spy on you", but at the same time you must log in to use the browser. What is their monetization strategy? If something is VC-backed and free, it's hard to believe that they aren't ad supported in some way, which almost always relies on some amount of tracking.
Obviously this can only count jobs that say they are remote, I've seen many complaints about remote jobs that turn out to require significant time in an office location.

--

Personally I'd prefer not to WFH mostly. While it is very useful to be able to (I have for a day or two here & there for years, and over the last year for a few days at a time while looking after ill parents and a terminal pet) but I hate it full time. Partly it is because I don't have room for a dedicated office and I don't like my work and personal space to mix to readily, and partly it is the contact thing (I'm uncomfortable on phones and video calls, always have been, and some people don't seem to be willing to mail or IM me instead when that would be most efficient by far), and partly I find myself getting more and more distractable the longer I'm working away (this may be largely due to the matter of having no space for a dedicated office space).

I'd rather leave tech than work full time remote, so you might find me stacking shelves in a few years!

We are officially hybrid, but for two or three days of any given week there are only a few people in the office, often not people I'm working directly with, so I'm effectively remote just in an office not at home, so some of the bad parts of both options. I'm not sure if this is any better, and I'm seriously contemplating what my future options may be – those shelves that need stacking are looking oddly attractive, or more practically perhaps retraining as an accountant or something.

Or maybe this is just the midlife crisis rambling!

Or maybe, as I've been accused of a few times, I'm a corporate shill here to extol the virtues of office space.

>How did the Internet get along so far without it, if it's really needed?

> Having more than one railway terminals for a city as big as Paris is not unreasonable.

Both points of yours are right, but something is missing in the picture.

Several non-connected terminals are the right solution is you only consider the service to the people living in the city, but if such city also acts as a transportation hub for a greater region, then you must ensure that travelling via the hub be possible without having to load your luggage on a crowded bus.

My recollection of octopus eye development comes from "Other Minds" by Peter Godfrey-Smith, which you might like. Essentially the octopus brain like organs are another evolutionary convergence.

https://www.amazon.com/Other-Minds-Octopus-Origins-Conscious...

This week's EconTalk covers a theory of self consciousness coming about only after humans had words to describe it. I wonder if likewise the brain as a physical substrate for a mind can only come about from a set of sense organs like eyes.

Jaynes' idea was that if you went back and you looked at very early historical texts--particularly for him, the Iliad--the way that characters talk about their own minds and their own drives is extremely unusual, or you might say not at all modern. . . . But, what's actually going on, given what we know about the specialization between the hemispheres of the brain, is that essentially one side of the brain, one hemisphere of the brain is really communicating to the other. And, full human consciousness had not really been established at that time.

Governments already have systems to identify who is a citizen. You can't Sybil attack birth certificates and naturalization paperwork because they're issued by a trustworthy entity[0]. Worldcoin is trying to reinvent ID cards for the sake of... IDK, becoming some kind of ancap alternative to a state bureaucracy?

Also, not everyone is going to accept UBI as a substitute for labor. We already see artists complaining specifically that AI art takes away the fun part of the job. The entire LessWrong/EA memeplex[1] assumes that the benefits of AI will be so obvious that humanity will tolerate the imposition of a new technological priesthood responsible for aligning AI to humanity's collective interests. Worship us and we will make Star Trek a documentary. This is like if you took all the worst parts of Christianity and all the worst parts of authoritarian Soviet Communism and mashed them up in a blender.

> realistic physics

It was a while ago, but a lot of the action tension in the first couple of seasons seemed to rely on things like, "We are leaving [jupiter moon], we are in a rush! Adrenaline is high!... We are arriving at [Mars Moon] 30 seconds later, nothing has changed!". And suspense of "Earth is launching missiles now, oh-no they are about to hit us so we must dodge them!".

It paid lip-service to being "Realistic" physics, but it was just a thin veneer. (Completely fine with "alien physics"/"drive physics" because that is in the story construction. It's everything else, that goes out the window instantly).
It could even apply to email - maybe some proportion of spam emails are just commands for botnets. Even if the email never gets past the spam filter on the user's inbox, it might trigger an action in the compromised MTA.

> Turns out to my surprise I like going into the office, but definitely not every day.

You're not alone.

The internet likes to talk about remote work as the only acceptable arrangement, but that's mostly because it's biased toward people who like socializing via internet comment sections.

The number of people who actually like going to the office (either part or full time) is far higher than you'd expect from reading Reddit and Hacker News.
I always assumed any momentum effectiveness was arbitrage on trader volume scales differing by order of magnitude.

E.g. a major player rebalancing a position created distortions that allowed much smaller players to profit, but no distortion on the scale that would allow others trading at major volume to profit
You remind me this thing. Those non perfect crystals which are dominant in the real world can have some of the most weirdest behavior in term of quantum chemistry e.g. photo synthesis.

Advanced material science is making use of those crystals to make semi-conductors and stuffs because they can just absorb sunlight and then react with other substances.

The trick is not to job-shop in bad markets. "Expensive" and "risky" to a startup in, I dunno, Billings, is "holy shit, what a bargain!" in a lot of cities—and not even the top markets, but tier two and three cities. Or to established, larger companies.

Be wary of small companies scraping by in cheap cities. If the pay's non-shit, they'll expect you to be a literal wizard, performing actual supernatural feats, for pay that's still probably on the low side.
