I had a friend in a similar situation, he explained the issue and how he would fix it. I was baffled and urged him to be careful and assume he was wrong that it had to be wrong. Anyways, he is still fixing it, getting some people to validat

I wouldn't be surprised if it got worse. Most people are on phones now, who uses computers if not for work? But I guess one could argue using phones would be the same, but even then my personal experience is that most people don't

I just posted another PBS Spacetime video answering another question. I feel like a quasi-expert on these subjects because of it. lol

Mathematically yes, actually probably not. I'd suggest looking into Alcubierre Warp Drive, cool story on why the guy came up with it and shows how to wrap spacetime around a spaceship to make it go faster than light. The ship wouldn&#x

The pw really stressed me, I checked the source code to find what a valid pw looked like. Pretty cool code btw, it has a rule array that with the error msgs, very easy to follow even tho it was webpacky. Then I realized the errors were disp

I don't understand why go after the VPN, I think most people don't use a VPN correctly. What good is a VPN when multiple apps on your computer are phoning home? If the law has a suspect IP, couldn't they just ask google, micr

This was pretty bad for me, I tried asking the name of a person references in the PDF and it couldn't find it. I asked who is the claimant in this PDF and it said the claimant was empty. But if I asked if the claimant name was in the P

I agree with your point here, but I am curious if there isn't space for people to gamble and not be hedged? Speculating naked with the contracts.

I wonder if the lower emissions are really worth it if the car breaks down sooner. All the electronics and gimmicks to lower immediate emissions at the cost of reliability. My car, for instance, turns off the engine when stopped, that can&#

yes, WhatsApp used to be great in this regard, you would not get any spam. Now it's starting to get worse and worse. I block SMS notifications since I only get spam there (I'm Brazilian, SMS is basically dead here)

I think this is nice, it forces people that want to participate to have skin in the game. With proof of work there is incentive for people not invested in crypto to mine as much as possible and sell everything. If a big enough computer is c

It got a lot correctly about me, and put me at 92% normal. I wonder if you are too far off "normal" it won't recognize you correctly, eg age. It seems to be down rn

As a developer I am bit ashamed of this question, but I gotta ask: What consumer apps actually use Neural Engines? I think something like Photoshop, maybe. But wouldn't it just train a model and use it as regular code? I'm interes

Can you give an example of a country that archived economic prosperity using leftist policies? I also find your comment on republicans quite wrong, since I don't see many differences between republicans vs democrats. Both have been run

No it isn't, the FED is buying mortgages and treasuries to keep the rates from rising. How can you say rates would be higher absent the FED buying it? Rates aren't negative nominally, but they are negative taking inflation into ac

We don't seem to have houses for everyone, people gotta work and produce to earn a house. If you start giving mortgages with artificially low interest rates, people who haven't produced things to offset their consumption will get

by pedro_hab 5y ago
Yeah, the government also artificially suppresses interest rates, making it easier to get mortgages yet somehow the blame goes to the lenders.

In Brazil there is a 3 second delay before calls start charging. [1] So we would call multiple times, speaking fast during the first 3 seconds then hanging up. Then they blocked it, after 10 3 sec calls calls and you couldn't make call

They have a "Role of BMI" section which strengthens your point. > BMI accounted for a substantial proportion In the "Role of BMI" they also say that BMI isn't perfect to detect adiposity, suggesting even further

This isn't true at the moment, it could be in the future. Less people die because of nature disasters and such today that they did 100 years ago. Technology and medicine helps us, they would, without a doubt, be better off with technol

Yeah, they think its great to live in the jungle, seeing every other newborn dying, just cus your carbon footprint is low. They couldn't care less for those forgotten children.

Nature, they are vulnerable to nature. They could use cars, ambulances, hospitals and etc. Nature is brutal, always has been, no one lives on harmony with it. Look at the indigenous peoples death rate, child mortality.

Yes! A lot of people don't even have access to electricity, even more don't use as much because of the price. We would need to be using way more fossil fuels / nuclear to have more equality. This idea to reduce our impact in

The fonts render badly on Chrome + Mac + a 27" 1080p It's a low res monitor, but that font was supposed to be bulky, rendering on a low res monitor shouldn't look soft.

In 2010, expenditures on energy totaled over US$6 trillion, or about 10% of the world gross domestic product (GDP). 58T is the opposite of pretty reasonable. Even if you could assume it wouldn't need any maintenance, which you can&#x27

I wouldn't call it small, I'd call impractical at best. If thats small, how can you describe the size of nuclear power plants required to do the same job? And power plants would be way smaller and aren't impractical.

Same in Brazil, here the import taxes are crazy, coupled with regular taxes it amounts to 100% (doubling the price). In the case of the iPhone you might need to find a cheap flight to the US, but a Macbook will land you a couple days in Dis

I think we agree on the point, but disagree in the definitions. Money supply inflation might not directly influence price inflation, though we see price inflation in asset prices, such as stocks and properties. My point is more on the gover

by pedro_hab 6y ago
I didn't define as I want to, I pointed to the fact that the meaning in old dictionaries used to be increase in money supply. My point doesn't depend on this tho, measuring inflation by rising prices isn't ideal, because you
