That is the problem. Everyone wants single-time advice but it isn't possible to actually distribute that product profitably in the current structure of the market.

Regulatory costs are very high, this means insurance costs are high, etc. Marketing costs are extremely high in financial services too. If you are going mass market, you are paying hundreds of dollars for leads...how do you make that work if you can't charge much and need to acquire your whole customer base every week?

This is why most of the market is underserved, why rich people end up owning all the high-yield assets, and why the only real solution is having very large institutional pools of capital for most retail savings (i.e. like Australia's superannuation funds, which produced a level of wealth for the average consumer vastly in excess of the US with lower levels of GDP per capita, relatively poor penetration of financial markets, etc.).

I don’t believe that treating these orgs with kid-gloves solves anything and in fact only serves to perpetuate the ineffective repercussions leveraged against organisations that do the wrong thing.

“Oh no they’re just people, let’s be nice”: ok if they’re just people then they can hear the responsibility and the blame. They did the wrong thing and deserve the shame that comes with that. If we’re expected to remember the humans in the org, then the humans don’t get to hide behind nebulous, faceless, corporate veils.

“The specific bias in the current context is the tendency for the public to think that homeless individuals will increase spending on temptation goods (alcohol, drugs, cigarettes) when given the cash transfer compared to people who are not homeless. This bias can favor the provision of paternalistic forms of aid over more agentic forms of aid, thus presenting a barrier to the cash transfer policy.”

Earlier in the paper:

“Our preregistered screening criteria were: … [history of homelessness less than 2 years and] nonsevere levels of substance use (DAST-10), alcohol use (AUDIT),and mental health symptoms Colorado Symptom Index (CSI) based on predefined thresholds. These screening criteria were used to reduce any potential risks of harm (e.g., overdose) from the cash transfer.”

I much appreciate when a seemingly 'surprise' downvote (of anybody; think I've only experienced one) has somebody follow up with something like "You're getting downvoted because…" or "Don't know why you're getting downvoted. This seems relevant because…". Both help me decide how to better fit to expectations.

Even if the given reason is not something I entirely agree with, reading why others might feel the way they do helps. With more samples, I can even get a feel for whether a given response was the respondents' personal interpretation/preference or representative of the community as a whole.

For downvotes that seem self-explanatory, I admit I do tend to skip over the replies.

Is there a reason why European kettles are typically 2200W and UK kettles are 3000W?

European plug sockets are typically rated for 16A, secured with a matching breaker and allowing for about 3500W of power. Appliances that use the full 3500W are rare but they exist, so it is not like it is illegal. So why don't Europeans get the 3000W kettles too?

Maybe some people have 10A circuits, maybe this is a margin so that other appliances can be plugged in the same circuit, or maybe it is just more expensive.

I have noticed that most 3000W+ appliances I can buy in France are more "professional", like what you can find in commercial kitchens or in workshops, but again, it does not mean they are not sold to consumers.
Is this the sort of thing you are after?

> Unrelated: using paper filters is less eco-responsible than the gold foil filter, but makes for better coffee.

You can use the paper filters more than once too; typically I need about one or two a week (depending on which coffee and how lucky I am), meaning that one €4 350-pack filters will last for years (I just bought my first refill after 4 years, but I didn't re-use the filters for the first few months and I gave a bunch of them to a friend when he ran out).

Re-use isn't necessarily more eco-friendly by the way, because cleaning takes energy too and cost of production can be much much higher. But realistically, the eco-impact and differences are so small it's not really something to worry about.
That makes a certain degree of logical sense, but doesn't really pan out in practice. According to the US Census Bureau, the median household income for New York City (all 5 boroughs) was $67,997 in 2021. This is actually less than the New York state median income of $74,314. By demographic breakdown, married-couples families with children do fare better: median income $106,000. Families fall somewhere in the middle, at $80,220. Non-family households are worst off, at $52,862 (probably not coincidentally, a figure that is roughly half the median income of a married couple family).[0]

All this to say that cities are great hubs of productivity, but the resulting output is not necessarily evenly distributed. "Pay more per capita" isn't really the figure you should look at when actual income figures are out there.

Great write-up! I wonder if it would be possible to enumerate all possible scenarios like this and assign probabilities to them.

For example in the scenario described here, I'd expect the probability it actually occured to be pretty low given that the geographical facts (the world is not made of small islands) and the archeological findings (no mass graves that can be assigned to a periodic timeline) don't line up.

Maybe I'm just not creative enough but somehow I feel there can't be that many different scenarios and most of them should be easily falisifieable/verifiable.
Valve's response here seems exceedingly harsh.

This kid went of his way to reach out to Valve and apologize for what he did, because he felt guilty. Valve's response was to forward his message to the FBI and organize a sting operation.

The proof is not rejected because people don't understand it, it's rejected because people don't think the proof is correct.

If the proof was translated to Lean, then it would mean a lot if it managed to prove the ABC conjecture because it would mean the proof was correct. It doesn't matter if the proof used crazy definitions. The statement of the ABC conjecture would still be understandable and so the ABC conjecture would be solved.

Yeah, this is a weird tech revolution. Physically "hard" jobs like roofing or picking up garbage cans are less likely to be obsoleted than executive positions like COOs or CFOs.

I always thought that was a nice fiction but without some serious evidence to back it up it will likely remain so. You'd expect at a minimum either some fossils with unique properties or maybe even a descendant alive today since apes are still here as well on the land. Absent both it looked like someone had a neat idea and attempted to rewrite history to match the idea based on cherry picked data, rather than that a piece of evidence was discovered that didn't match the view up to that point requiring a re-thinking of how we got here.

The accepted explanation seems to be - by far - the simpler of the two.
>“We have not planned sufficiently. There was a review undertaken by the national organisation and that hasn’t been released yet. It was finished ages ago,” he said.

>“I wonder why that hasn’t been worked on. Dare I say because it contains some really gut-wrenching facts.”

>The report, an Office of National Intelligence investigation into the national security threat posed by climate change, was completed some time this year, but the federal government is refusing to release even a ‘sanitised’ version of the findings

This is such a bad take. Speculation causes there to be so much misdirection and strawman that it reduces the impact once it finally does get put out. (It's already been debated, jokes about, reported on, speculated about, etc).

The government needs to release it. Saying that we'll all die in agony is ridiculous.

Then we might start to look more seriously at the real causes of climate change and pollution.

According to the article, that bottleneck lasted for 100,000 years. So in your scenario, the ancestor island cuts themselves off for 100,000 years before starting the extermination.

Also the time period of the bottleneck corresponds with a hole in the archaeological record.

So while your thought experiment is possible, a bottleneck is more plausible.

A couple of observations.

It's odd that the article doesn't spell out Zermelo–Fraenkel, and instead uses the shorthand ZFC axioms. At a fundamental level, axioms are simultaneously solid and slippery. The entire purpose of a set of axioms is to serve as a backstop. Without axioms there are no proofs, and instead you wind up riding infinite regress; turtles all the way down. In short, proofs without axioms are impossible.

But once you have a set of axioms, proofs are precisely that, proofs. The notion that mathematics is a social compact is aggrandizing the role of the axiom, and minimizing the rest of mathematics. It is certainly the case that axioms are in fact a "social compact" in the sense that if we cannot agree that a set of given axioms are true without proof, then we can prove nothing. But the goal of axioms is to make that compact as narrow and clear as possible.

The brief discussion of Godel's incompleteness theorem elides the fundamental nuance that incompleteness has only been demonstrated in the context of self reference. There is a longer and better discussion of how this relates to logic, science, and consciousness in Hofstadter's seminal work "Godel, Escher, Bach"

Portland actually has the tech jobs and salaries to stoke its housing prices, or no one could afford them. But I get the feeling that lower end wages must be less than Seattle given how much more affordable the restaurants are, that non tech jobs aren’t keeping up.
They may save lives but their price will be based on supply and demand and the demand will be based on the price of alternatives. If pricing in the negative externalities causes their price to exceed that of alternatives demand will plummet.

That's not really evidence though, is it? You wade because you want to keep the largest portion of your body dry and you want to be able to breathe. You swim when you have to or when you really want to, but you walk when you can. Wading is the better option in undeep water from an energy expenditure perspective as well, and likely safer than trying to swim in undeep water.

When I ran the numbers off of the actual CO2 emissions of the actual California grid, an EV created something like half the CO2 for a trip in the equivalent gas car.

The calculation wasn't straightforward though. And varies widely by locale.

EV mileage is reported in eMPG. Which means, "The miles you get when you charge the battery with the same energy as is in a mile of gasoline." The problem is that to deliver that much to the battery, you have losses at the charger, losses in the grid, and losses during power generation. None of which are counted in that figure. If your electric car is running off of a coal power plant, that 120 eMPG Tesla can easily perform about like a 30 MPG Camry. But as soon as you have a significant fraction of your grid being generated by renewables, now the electric car is running on a fraction of the CO2 emissions of the gas car.
It’s funny, I’m a lead in my team and there is this one co-developer on my team that is obviously looking to replace me or be my lead in some capacity. He’s even made jokes about it on multiple occasions. From time to time he compliments me on work I do, but it comes off as if I’m only finally approaching his level of expertise. It’s hard to describe. You could probably say I’m reading too deep into it, but I swear it’s true. I haven’t responded to it, because well, he’s pretty good anyway and he’s fun to work with. Just one of those things I guess.

I actually agree with most of the points you've made here. I think the difference lies in what context this feedback is relayed to a teammate.

If I'm tasked with a code review, that is pretty much a directive for me to offer feedback. When I am asked explicitly for feedback, whether directly by my peer or as assigned by a higher up, I tend not to bother with the kind of niceties I am talking about. Still, being nice is nice. But I expect the other person to take my words as-is, so I won't mince them.

Accommodating others becomes more important to me outside of this "directly asked for feedback" context. If I'm in a group discussion, or if my feedback hasn't been explicitly solicited, then that's a trickier environment with greater potential for me to negatively dominate the discussion. Similarly, if the issue at hand is not one of baseline technical necessity (like committing secrets to git) but more open to different opinions (like how to structure an interface we're exposing), I place greater weight on trying to be accommodating. I find that most discussions tend to be of the latter kind.
In the standard model the (proton, electron) is the lightest particle charged under the global (baryon number, lepton number) conservation respectively. So they are truly stable according to the SM.

However, there are many good reasons to expect that physics beyond the standard model do not conserve B or L (or B-L, which is what's actually conserved in the SM). In those models one expects proton decays for sure.

However, even in those models, electric charge is conserved. Unless there are gauge-variant dynamics at very high energy electric charge will always be conserved and electrons (and positrons), being the lightest electrically charged particles, will be absolutely stable.
