(Sincere question, not a rhetorical one) I think it would be helpful if you explained how distillation works (as relevant to the conversations threads here) because I agree that this is a key point.

This seems like an important post. It looks like these letters are occasionally used to as a tactic, and i can see how such a tactic can really scare employees in a country where legal bills can climb really fast.

Super useful succinct crystallization!

Your statement is technically correct (and mirrors my initial feelings) but the comment below that notes that we accept many other abstractions seems more “meaningful” in the larger scheme of things. For instance, a software engineer who al

The current administration's actions are for sure signaling a distinct lack of predictability or stability. The U.S. is either harming itself erratically, or systematically enforcing control on US based businesses in a way that is hist

If you re-read my comment, I am not saying that. It seems to be observably true that expressing opinions critical of the administration, even about one's own business, leads to further harm from government right now in the U.S. in a co

Unfortunately saying it in the press is going to make it even harder for them in the current environment. I know this administration gets non-trivial support from the valley, but what to most outsiders seems like "targeting businesses

Buying state owned enterprises and running them more efficiently to double their valuation (or more) has been a reliably profitable business in many countries. This suggests to me that government bureaucracy, lack of accountability etc. cou

My favorite part of the paper is that the “attack” isn’t just exploiting a bug — it’s exploiting how different components interpret the same input. Modifying an executable as it’s loaded into memory is one example, but the deeper pattern is

I have just recently discovered Watts, but I think he may have agreed. “Watts left formal Zen training in New York because the method of the teacher did not suit him. He was not ordained as a Zen monk, but he felt a need to find a vocationa

Causality, in all my experience of human relationships in real life, in books, even in movies, is rarely single factor, and often goes in both directions :) A marriage certificate is not a 100% vaccine against what imho are the shared root

Where we probably agree: I would agree that it is the commitment that matters. Where we may agree: Social norms really do impact human behavior. Marriage is a social norm supporting long term commitment. In communities where it has been rep

Like Matt, I am a supporter of the state providing a solid safety net on basic needs (food, health care, self-improvement, safety) to ALL its and pay for it by taxing the well-off citizens more than the average although unlike him, I would

I understand his critique of the stats, but I wonder if Mr. Bruenig disagrees with the author’s points of view. In particular I wonder what he thinks would be best for his own kids. He seems to be, per wikipedia, married to a high-school fr

Working hard to ensure you don’t repeat the mistakes of your parents already makes you a good parent - one who cares and strives. I worry too, especially about the weaknesses I share with one of my parents. Occasionally though, I find that

Thanks. While steep, I’ll happily pay for the procedure if the risks are minimal and the impact on his quality of life is likely to be meaningfully positive.

Sincere question: my relatively non-aggressive-at-sales vet, whose office has beocome a bit more aggressive recently, said this month that my nearly 12 year old dog has had a tooth fracture for over a year - and it needs a $X,000 removal re

In my experience not wanting to mask unless there is a meaningful sense of risk is a phenomenon equally strong in India (for example) and so I do not believe it has to do with the western propaganda. If you visited India after the first wav

A few loosely coupled thoughts on the subject - mostly to flesh out my own thinking (tldr - in which I conclude that we agree on the goal but disagree on “which was easy to implement”, after thinking through my own educational / econom

Sorry to hear about Bob. We must do better as a city and a community to prevent this kind of tragic and senseless loss.
