This sounds really interesting but possibly qualitatively different than programming/engineering where automated improvements/iterations are part of the job (and what's rewarded)

Not even kidding - the AskHistorians reddit. I use their Sunday digest links as a magazine: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/search/?q=title%3A%22... It's filled in both so many gaps and made me in

That is somewhat mitigated by grouping comparisons of S/M/L change sizes. It would be interesting to group changes by line-deletions, say to indicate rewrites (and size of them)

All my teacher friends (before this article) had joyously reported on lunch rooms being loud again (and even fights and lol, sex) happening.... But in a good way. If kids aren't getting into some trouble then they're not interacti

I can't imagine the Cloud Act being effective without Microsoft (and French gov) complicity. If they can make successful tax shelters they can architect the entities and the architecture to remove this option. There's some 9-eyes

I do this with audiobooks/podcasts and then can start with the lights off and lying down. (important part I find is making sure the dynamics are low -- no high-volume ads or flashy punctuated sound effects) Not sure if any other buds

From the article: > Another argument supporting the suggestion that species which have lost their GLO gene were under no selective pressure to keep it, is that all species which have lost their GLO gene have very different diets but all

Well, xz is a rare event too. There's no knowing how many backdoors were added by small network companies or contractors. But there's rarely accountability when it happens because the company would rather cover it up, or just not

The headline is a little crazy. This is like someone talking about the Human Genome Project and the headline reading "scientists discover humans have DNA" The diversity at many levels was even known. They're just trying (whi

In the profitable cases (and maybe just as open offer), why not just sell them back to their staff/former owner? There's no point to keep the IP of games that are shuttered. Maybe the offer was made and a bunch didn't take it

Well the evidence is circumstantial. A bunch of Canaanites celebrate a spring festival with unleavened bread. Later they adopt a different religion that has a spring festival and an Exodus story with a new god called YHWH is glommed onto El

by schuyler2d 1y ago
I'd answer a bit differently than replies so far. Later monotheist post "merging" of El and YHWH didn't really have space for El's son so they had to treat him as a lesser and then hostile God. Any worship for him

There's definitely some relatable and transmitted stories like the flood, etc. However, the Levant and Egyptian gods "grew up" in different contexts than Mesopotamia. Egypt was pretty centralized from the beginning and their

I don't want to completely refute this because I'm also an amateur and there are a lot of instabilities of consensus, but Baal was at least also the son of El in Canaanite religion which predated an Israeli kingdom. My understandi

Agree in general -- I think the tiktok/shorts wave is biasing strongly for shorter video and then the time format kills any followup/2nd iteration-explanation But this one was pretty good.

Against the Day is by far my favorite. It has the same sweep-of-history as Gravity's Rainbow and some others of his epics but I think it's the one where I actually feel for the characters more than them being mostly a vehicle for

I think we need to adjust society so fewer people feel they have nothing to lose than in the status quo.

I explored this idea a while ago https://ouwi.org/ I wasn't able to get the perfect crystal I wanted but I think whatever works will need to be a lot more visually differentiated than the MIT version

Right, but for functional markets it turns out the marginal opportunity cost is not good enough. Most famously interest rates without some government (or other, in the case of Crypto) hand in distribution and projected distribution, the m

Not in the article, but the body of work (that you're clearly familiar with). If you believe the Fed/ability-of-the-Fed to smooth the boom/bust cycle, then you disagree with Hayek -- he wasn't (just) arguing for a genera

Thanks for linking to this -- it highlights a fallacy that Hayek seemed to mire in whereas on one hand, he believed that the aggregate "market" forces would always be sufficient to stabilize pricing stability (/inflation) he

It strikes me that US DARPA has a weird position where the more military advantage can come from concentrated high investments then the US+allies/beneficiaries win. (Ie fewer expensive toys should win against many cheap toys) If Mil
