Obviously no right answer, but personally I think worrying too much finding the perfect tool instead of just integrating more knowledge to your PKMS is a distraction. Rolling your own solution is especially limiting in the context of the sh

One counterpoint I have to this article. Considering expert vs. novice problem-solving: Within their domain, experts leverage highly efficient models. Outside? Rigidity often impedes adaptation. Their ingrained patterns, assets in familiar

I found that a nice compromise between self-hosting and publishing on a Medium / Substack is using Github pages + Notion published links: - You get one free site per GitHub account - I forked https://github.com/academic

The cynic in me knows the real reason for them to be a carbon neutral company is so that you don't feel bad purchasing another one of their phones since it was produced "neutrally".

It's not so simple. Asians for example are genetically predisposed to being lean ( https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-019-46960-9 ), so we "seem" healthier. However, that can be deceptive because Asian

I agree with asking hard questions, but I think there's a limit to how much one can really expect an individual job applicant to determine the financial state of the company. For one, the people that are answering their questions are b

I see this argument come up all the time. However, the job market in general and especially in America is terribly inefficient. The vast majority of Americans work paycheck-to-paycheck and are tied down to their geographic location (family,

Tinder would seem to contradict you there. How often is an eloquence requirement given vs. height requirement? Sure, height is not something we should fixate on, but it doesn't mean that doesn't happen anyways.

I think achieving superiority over humans is practically solving the problem though. Solving chess or go by going through a complete search space seems more like a hardware/computational goal than a practical ml/ai goal.

Many people without families don't see the need for a yard/garage/garden when they live on their own and can take public transit in a high-density area. These people value proximity to bars/restaurants/experiences a

There are people who quit, but there's always another engineer willing to complete the work they wouldn't. That's the unfortunate reality.

You can have a job and still be free. The two are not mutually exclusive. OP's point is that you shouldn't slave away the prime years of your life saving for the dream of FIRE on some beach, island, or etc. I think the idea that y

Having the same playlists, interface, and experience on various different mediums is more convenient. The vast majority of people do not have enough local music to have to clear out their local cache manually. It's easier to share play

This is a local problem, not a global problem. I fail to see how reducing population in Tokyo, Japan would solve a housing crisis that exists in San Francisco...

Hand-offs are also dangerous in many parts of medicine. So, often times, hospitals want the decisions being made by a single shift to mitigate the risk of transcription errors between shifts.

Removing one driver from a bus which can carry 30-60 people is less cost cutting than removing one driver for 1-4 passengers for a private/pooled ride. Companies don't attack problems from a societal benefit-analysis standpoint, t

Well put. The article makes it sound like training the "quiet eye", i.e. improving eye focus by X percent, will improve elite athlete traits of calmness and zone/flow. When cause/effect operating in the opposite directio

Agreed 100%. For quick one-off scripts and coding interviews, I have no qualms with using python. But maintaining api input/output guarantees in a large piece of software w/o explicit typing sounds like a huge pain to me.

People are often underpaid compared to market rate because jobs are not a perfectly liquid market. This is due to a number of factors: family situation, workplace social bonds, confidence in one's abilities, fear of change. It is very
