It's also a problem that the camera could have degraded vision that's inadequate for self driving yet report no problem at all and continue driving as if everything's fine. I'm pretty sure your situation isn't the o

The point of the criticism of "disinformation" is to allow Facebook to increase their censorship. It's like the caricaturial movie scene of someone screaming "somebody stop me". Facebook want to be criticized of &qu

I'm from Israel. I got the vaccine. The goalposts here shifted to a third booster shot. They already admit the first two doses become ineffective very fast, contradicting the early research that actually got me to trust and take the va

There's a third option of actually engaging in the discussion. You know, actually investing the efforts of silencing anti-vaxers into explaining the truth instead. And it's not like that option is unfathomable to the media. When t

The most important part of censorship is the censorship about the extent of censorship. The most important propaganda is the propaganda that justifies propaganda itself. As part of that propaganda, the most important modern propaganda is th

Door opening is common, I had several cats do it. One cat learned to vomit in the sandbox. We didn't train him to do it, he somehow understood the general vibe that we don't like him vomiting and decided to go to his sandbox to do

Cancel culture is out of control. It's disgusting. This isn't some Nazi. People who are against abortion think that it is murder. You can disagree with them but it's not like they are coming from some morally unjustified posi

After all the propaganda from big tech talking about the dangers of misinformation, they don't care a little bit when their misinformation actively hurts people's lives.

Honestly, most of the outrage would be prevented if they just limited each government to just attacking their own civilians. Who would outlaw them then, those same governments? Their real blunder is allowing cross-country hacking, and now t

Note that interestingly, momentum and position in orthogonal directions do commute and don't have uncertainty. You can know both a particle position in the x direction and it's momentum in the y direction with 100% certainty. Some

Yes. It feels pretty right that you can't claim you're not editorializing if you decide to censure the leader of the country because of arbitrary reasons, like claiming coronavirus came from a lab is a conspiracy theory. What happ

Why would there be a ban on gas self-service in the first place?

They are cooperating with the Tether scam, so they are a scam too.

You literally answered it yourself: you find the suicide more believable today. If you find it more believable today, and their motivation is obscuring the murder, this is the perfect timing actually.

Why is it even legal to conduct LSD experiments? There was some animal testing post earlier, but giving people illegal consciousness altering drugs seems so much worse.

They can't be PoC because their higher than average success contradicts the narrative of victims.

It's not a Ponzi scheme because in ponzi scheme you deliberately use late investors money to pay early investors. What happens in cryptocurrency is fake-exchange scheme. Tether is a fake currency printed in unlimited way by bitfinex wh

That's a clear strawman. There's a big difference between no privacy at all, and no privacy only in those cases requiring government investigation. There are also restrictions of police investigations by law, requiring warrant, an

This is a war where one side, Israel, attempts to minimize both sides casualties, while the other side, Hamas, tries to maximize both sides casualties, including their own people. Purely from intentions perspective, it's clear who shou

Looking at their product, I wonder how many of these kind of vulnerabilities are still open and exploited by them. Wouldn't make much sense for them to burn such a useful vulnerability which is required for their product unless they ha

Financial exchanges need to prove to you that trades really do happen with real money at the prices they say it happens, and that the order book isn't cooked. If I were to open an exchange for shitcoin, and show you pretty graphs and f

Just because they held appropriate balance at one point in time doesn't mean they are actually sitting on dollar reserves corresponding to tethers. They could have borrowed to reach these numbers for the report. The current state is st

because sin and cos have simple Taylor series, but only when measuring angles in radians. sin(x)/x at zero is one only in radians. Just multiplying by the angle is a good approximation of sin for low angles, again only in radians. I be

Again you're using sham accounting. Where did that methane come from? From the food. It came into the food from the air. There are again no net emissions. Just like a company requires expenditures to generate revenue. This is misleadin
