What kind of stat problems? Also I used to love Python... Until I got a full time job and learned why static typing exists.

I wonder if philosophy can solve the first 4? The later through Science/logic where it's possible.

Same question but for general Linux distros. Not sure I'm willing to try Ubuntu for the 8th time. I use Linux server all the time, but I don't want to mess with configurations and installing a bunch of unique software to get netfl

Epidemiologists are the experts, I'm baffled why so many people are asking physicians about coronavirus. Physicians are not scientists, they aren't supposed to make policy decisions. It goes to show how few people understand what

No Politicians framed the issue like this. Canceling school in 3 month bursts is a political move because it's much harder to tell a generation of parents their kids won't return to school for 2-3 years. Shame on our politicians,

I'll give you some credit since Programming is not Science/Engineering but rather some combination of Science/Authority/Tradition/Art. But in science fields, authors names don't really matter. The same outcome

It's best to seperate the human from their technical work. I do technical work and unfortunately can't contain my Politics on social media (due to their psychology tricks). I know both Republicans and Democrats will dismiss my mat

I find the opposite True. I imagine you watch lots of Apple ads.

Build quality is a term non engineers use. It's a marketing term. Seems like you got sucked up into it. Edit- butterfly keyboard, airpods, bad iphone signals come to mind

Don't call it a garden. That's just propaganda from the dictators.

So what? Kn95 mask it up. Your gym population isn't going to clog up hospitals. And we need to kill this myth that every old person lives with their kid. Terrible Unscientific policy is causing more damage than if we did nothing.

The whole opening bars/restaurants/casinos but closing gyms is mind boggling. I understand keeping the population subdued with circuses, but you'd think politicians would realize the gym is a positive outlet that will reduce

I read that Japan is doing well because they use kn95 masks. It baffles me we haven't been giving these away to old and obese people.

I'd be shocked if this ever made it to production. I'd be more shocked if they did this for 2 generations of pixels. The problem with vertical integration is how fast you can be obsolete by competitors. You only need 1 competitor

Democrats want less tariffs? I would love a Neoliberal Democratic party.

Big policy changes spends your political capital. You are going to be getting angry phone calls. Better to get those angry phone calls in exchange for a spending bill that goes to your donors/constituents. Elections have razor thin mar

That unfortunately isn't the Republican platform. We are taught that in school, but their policy doesn't line up with that. There is a strong debate to be made Biden is more fiscally right leaning than Trump. Where Trump was big i

The timing here is awfully Political. I imagine Democrats wouldn't do this if they had control of the government. Seems like lip service to their bases.

Be careful not to confuse expensive brands for durable stuff.

I have an even lower cost industry, Programming/coding/mechanical turk. You can do this on a rpi3. No need for machines, a supply chain, logistics. Sure traditionally this was true, but it's a saturated developed market. Had

I think people forget that "quality" stuff survives, but there was always a cheap alternative to "quality". The olden days were not better. Obligatory-"survivorship bias"

What kind of phone doesn't let you turn off notifications by app?

Email is the tightest grip Google has on me. Maybe YouTube. But their Google music fail, their rising phone prices, their bait and switch photo storage, and low quality search results have caused me to change. Any alternatives to Chrome, Fi

It's pretty easy to avoid Amazon if you are Frugal. Walmart online is cheaper. Most people are too lazy to look at another store.

Private sector unions are fine as long as we let capitalism play out. No bailouts/taxes when GM/Ford/Chrysler can't afford to pay the bills. Public sector unions are a danger to society. A monopoly in monopoly will take

Why bring race into this? Is it nonsensical emotional junk used to move the uneducated masses? I'm no Trump supporter, but when I hear something so disconnected from policy it has a "Mexico will pay for it" vibe. Edit- you gu

I was listening to a Philosophy podcast and a philosopher noted that Artisans were different than merchants. It got me thinking. Are there examples of a solo founders/Engineers being able to make sales? While I'm often praised for

Wait until you hear about gold index funds/trusts.... Anyway, the reason you buy it is so you don't need to manage the security. Both Binance and Circle Pay ended United States operations causing my friends to either move their Bi

Fortune 500 sure. But mid and small business have 0 negotiation power, it's extremely expensive to migrate data, and they can't afford a legal battle(as threat).
