I’d be interested in something like that, where do I sign up?

If there were a way to domesticate them, they’d be amazing work animals

Beavers were considered a pest in Canada as well, to the point of being the main antagonist in several indigenous myths

I mean relative to other empires in history. Maybe the Persian one comes close, maybe. I don’t like living in a client state but I’m under no illusions things would be better under the British or Spanish

Incentives are a factor too though. The us needs to hold a mostly voluntary empire together, that requires a lot more intrigue than the average country.

It's a bit reminiscent of the 'god of the gaps' in that way - and, I suspect, for similar reasons.

Even then, I probably know enough about the culture to make some adjustments. I’m going to speak very differently to a group of blue collar workers whose first language is English than a technical team who have varying degrees of facility w

No, fungi evolved that can digest lignin now ;). On a less facetious note, Solar needs time to renew the energy it made the day before as well. Time scale is very important to questions of renewables, and people have been sustainably burnin

I don’t understand. There’s no net increase or decrease of atmospheric carbon in the scenario you describe

Yes, but I think the ops point is that the correct phrasing is report-specific, and trying to get phrasing down without considering whom one will be speaking to is a sure sign of failure

I'd see that as a separate issue and not be in favour of holding one good reform hostage by demanding another.

Back when 15$/hour minimum wage was being widely argued for, I always thought 7.50 min wage and 7.50 UBI would be a much better proposal. Much more minimum wage jobs worth creating at that point, and no disincentive to do them.

Yeah, I'm from a poor rural community and the difference remote work would make to a place like Walton, Nova Scotia if future generations grow up feeling secure in it would be hard to express. Really breaking a cycle of poverty for a l

You’re calling this poor leadership, can you share a time you were in a similar situation and did something different or are you armchair quarterbacking?

I believe there’s some benefit from boulardi yeast but I don’t know the reference except that it’s part of the bredeson protocol. Smells nice in a cleaning vinegar solution though.

skin in the game. They paid for the product, and if the company's still in business, didn't sue it or convince everyone else not to. A good review costs a restaurant critic nothing.

Fair but… I think the last hundred years should have also taught us to be wary of believing in any novel social system too fervently

I actually agree with the idea that we should judge people based on their popularity with customers rather than their peers. Credential are very often indicative of the former

I'd say Korea counts as a US win or stalemate, but Vietnam ended with the US achieving none of its objectives, having wasted tons of lives and leaving in a humiliating fashion. Is it so weird to call that a defeat? In that case it&#x27

Corals are more likely to survive a slow than a fast change as well. I don't think we know that much about how evolution bottlenecks work, but I'd think it's easier to adapt to a radically different environment in three gener

I think the contention is that there are fewer of them now than before the recent interest rate shock.

In practice, there’s no conflict between feeling gratitude for the positive things in one’s life and having an internal locus of control. In theory, those feelings are hard to express in a single narrative

I genuinely do not understand how this attitude is so common on a site with so many experts. Surely two things being indistinguishable is a step change if we’re trying to compare them?

Serious question, do you think the current generation of llm cannot pass the Turing test? If you think it can, did you not put much stock on the Turing test before they passed it?

Loved the aikido reference. I’m in the process of editing a book on verbal aiki and it’s cool to see the prescience in this article

Or decrease to be just slightly over supply. We don’t like to think about it but the current energy mix plus geopolitical factors make that a distinct possibility.

Weird that this comment was flagged, is this actually a controversial statement?

If those lines died out from intertribal competition though, it wasn’t a near-extinction era. Some slightly less competitive group could have made it into the present day in that case.
