Which really begs the question: why not have it open-source at that point? Obsidian isn't making money from things hidden in the code, but rather their Sync service. Might as well open-source it (and perhaps get more people helping wit

That's definitely true, though probably only limited to CS (and maybe the top 5% of people going to investment banking). The vast majority of the most intelligent people at any Canadian university will stay in Canada, and given the cur

It's quite sad that ADHD is as stigmatized as it is: even though it is a very well-characterized condition in psychiatric literature, the most common 'pop-science' take one hears about it is that ADHD is completely overdiagno

What sort of privacy implications? I'd imagine that Anki data would be relatively privacy-concern free, as it contains no PII, and for the AnKing decks, all of the content is standardized and so wouldn't contain personal notes. Th

Maybe it's regression to the mean? Perhaps the second day 'feels' more lazy because you did so much the last day, so that when you return to your baseline, you feel as if you haven't done anything in comparison. This cou

I wonder if there's religious symbolism attached to this, i.e., I wonder if people in the HRE made an allusion between the trinity you mentioned and that of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

You may be right. If there was a selective pressure against large penises due to intra-male fighting, and the lack of a strong enough pressure for larger penises (due to the relative absence of pair-bonding), that would support the observat

I'm not sure if female social capital in gorillas is the reason for the shorter penis size. Because in other primates, like bonobos, for example, where females predominate and have lots of choice, penis size is still small. I think the

Interesting, it seems like then that the old wives tale—that height, foot size, or hand size—should not correlate with that measurement in men. According to the literature (RIP my search history), height is weakly correlated with it [1],

Right, but they don't control the distribution and transaction of cash. They may stop producing €500 notes—for example, but there is nothing they can do to stop these farmers or undocumented immigrants from bundling together >€3000

I'm assuming not, since the article in the post specifically mentions high-powered engines found in motorcycles—unless you're competing in the Tour de France, you should be fine.

At this point, I think SoCal may just be cursed. Horrible traffic, smog from wildfires, a tropical storm, and an earthquake?! I think that should be a cue to move out before the LA river turns into blood or frogs start raining from the sky.

Sorry about that, I know nothing about education so I'm mostly trying to start a conversation here. Given those numbers, we should expect $12,000 per pupil to go towards special ed (let's assume 10% need it) and $12,000 per pupil
