This site has developed a lot of content without seeming to directly address the major concerns anyone coming from git flow will have. For example, their code review page does not really address how github and gitlab are both set up to supp

This is exciting. Seems like searching for scientific papers would be a good long context task.

What's your point? I think you're trying to argue that we tax the wealthy as much as the middle class, but this claim doesn't support that. The 10th percentile of earnings in the US is 190k. The 5th is 290k. The 10-5th percen

Funding a ubi wouldn't be that hard if we only cared about the kinds of things that get cheaper with time. Right now our federal tax rate is enough to cover 10k/year/pp (though nothing else), but if actually taxed the wealthy

I cannot imagine advocating for using shapes as they currently exist for an access control use case. Shapes may limit what the user can see in the app, but I've now put all of my other users data on this user's device! No way can

I looked at these two systems recently and noted another crucial difference for anyone using them for a use case that included access control. ElectricSQL doesn't seem to (yet) support table joins in a way that would support standard w

I think calling this reprehensible is a bit over judgemental. Melatonin is pretty safe. For example, there's melatonin in both human and cow milk (more in evening milk, because infants don't have a day night cycle yet, and giving

Huh. I thought I remembered that they had, and I thought the link agreed with me, but rereading it sounds like they just put a nuclear reactor on a plane and flew it to see if it would kill the crew. "Between May and August 1961, the T

If you're going to make this argument, I really wish you'd make it more explicit. I think what you're suggesting makes cities unlivable. The homeless drug users have to exist in space somewhere. What do you propose to do with

I understand this feeling, and feel it frequently with other comments, but don't see the comment you're replying to as the best example of that. Their list of reasons are mostly not overcomable with "great engineering achieve

Isn't this only true if OpenAI decides to let you into the gpt4 API? Is there a trick for getting them to turn it on? I haven't heard back from them for access yet.

If a chess engine was programmed with a general goal of winning the game, inadequate rules preventing it from cheating, and sufficient ability to influence the world to do so, it would presumably cheat to win. If the only path it saw to che

Do you really not understand that software influences people's expectations of what's normal? You're normalizing the idea that everyone should be always available by conflating "attendance in the app" with "wor

Agreed. I've used a tool like this (sococo) once that I liked for a while. It had the ability to go into an office and close the door. So you'd see the avatar as not available and would have to "knock". That was better,

I think the point being made is that it's easy to tell low quality after the fact, but it's not obvious before investment. The startups that'll get weeded out will be the ones whose business fundamentals aren't obvious.

Well, the Georgists argue that a LVT plus developer friendly laws would prevent prices from rising too high. LVT taxes the value of the land, not the property, so if you have expensive land (somewhere people want to be), you're incenti

Drinking alcohol because water was unsafe is a modern myth. Prior to (and for a long time after, too) the germ theory of disease, water was evaluated purely by taste. They drank lots of water. Thus the whole "cholera epidemic because o

You've written at least half a dozen comments linking to this study and claiming that it disputes everyone's opposition to the student loan cancellation plan. I'm skeptical that you've even read it. I just did. It says t
