You nicely came to the conclusion that homelessness is indeed a political choice.

Probably more like a zealous lawyer at Apple heard of it and based on a lawyery scenario/edge case (that would probably encompass all videos on youtube) decided to send the notice for takedown to youtube. Youtube being run by zealous lawyers don't question any takedown by corps because at their scale, any % of false negative would be costly if they all issued lawsuits.

China isn't really competition though. Barely achieved 10nm.

Seems like in 2022 renewables are getting us there: https://ember-climate.org/insights/research/global-electrici...

On top of that, only 1/3 of the US debt is held by foreigners. Not a huge deal in any case.

Same here. I feel like by having obligatory daily deadlines and processes imposed on me every day, together with the sleep deprivation, made me 200% more focused on what really matters, what is a good process, see what can be improved and what is the core of each task I'm trying to achieve (definition of done).

It's certainly not a good option. It's also one of the best options available on the market, save completely opting out of tech.

Incremental changes. Several minor updates makes a big update. That's why most people don't buy two generations successively.

What would be a modern audiophile setup?

A judge can still refuse to shut down the company. If employees want to take action and protect their rights, they probably can. Especially if the company is profitable.

Reading your comment, common sense woud agree with you. But it feels like you're reversing things. IF (and only if) OP's company promotes a healthy culture, that initiative IS actually positive (because OP doesn't have to worry too much about the outcome, they know they'll be rewarded and well received by other employees). If the culture is toxis / incompetent, there is very little benefit to that: OP would face the backlash of other employees, wouldn't be rewarded by their bosses, and other employees might face negative consequences for OP's initiatives.

There ARE definitely cases and culture where optimization isn't a desirable trait.

Because that's a market driven way to push the limits of science and it serves the purpose of humanity: better, faster, stronger.

That reminds me of spectre supreme! Good times.

"ML model predicts data from the training set" doesn't make a very good headline does it?

edit: wrote it in a sarcastic way, but I would love to understand if that's what it actually is or if there is an actual difference between this and what AlphaFold does.

Wasn't aware that baldness was a problem.

Great work! Keep in mind that you're showing this to a tough crowd.

Except that Ukraine joining NATO is not a subject anywhere except in Putin's mind.

So many lensing effects!!

OP asked for the benefits, no cost-benefit analysis. So here are a few items:

- Family time is enjoyable, certainly helps cut down social media addiction and replace it with something meaningful (unless your perspective is that you'll die anyway so nothign is meaningful, but then you have other issues).

- Having kids forces me to push myself to be better, control my emotions, be a role model that inspires my kids. Without kids, I would find it harder to have such a clear drive to consistently be the best of myself every day.

- Kids are not independent. A priority that tops everything else shifts your perspective from you being at the center of your world to something else. That something else is fragile, needs care. That helps bring focus, consistency and growth to everyday life.

- Helping someone discover new things brings me joy. I can do that almost every week with my kids and I love it.

Does that make it a good choice in terms of cost/benefits? Depends who you are and how you see your life I guess?

Edit: reading another comment - the list about is indeed a descriptions of the symptoms of what it takes to bring joy and happiness to a new counsciousness in this world. I like the perspective of that other comment and wanted to highlight it too.

I hear that cofounder thing about Tesla every now and then. Doesn't matter when the company was founded, if someone joined before the company finds its market fit, that person is legitimate to be called cofounder imo.

Sounds like you're walking away with a good lesson about finding the right cofounder and being aligned on the vision :) Probably not ideal in your current state of mind, but very valuable.

DNA testing already exists within a restricted framework. It's not like parents can pick subjective physical traits when expecting a babies. It doesn't seem crazy to me to expand the list of diseases we test for.

It’s not an all or nothing problem. It’s perfectly doable to find a balance and we’re already doing it.

A bullshit culture war, that is.

> Or you could make it known you want to confound a startup.

How would one go about that effectively?

These tools have EU versions of their services with servers in Ireland or other places so that the data does not leave the territory. There will be absolutely no consequence to these regulations.

Movie with CGI such as Star Wars = lying?

A retreat would seem helpful :)

When you don't need to justify your actions and are allowed to stay vague, everything is permitted.

Surprised it hasn't happened before.
