One will have a strong tendency to leave the easily challanged out.

I like it, the legal system might be more suitable for putting the "truth" on trial than its current application.

It will cost a bunch of money but we get something out of it.

You can have entirely seperate governing entities complete with their own taxes and elections. The most interesting part imho is that people not even bother voting if the entity does its job properly.

On the other hand, the most interesting discussions to be had are the ones where the opponent disagees with you.

As this is hard for many people i learn to completely ignore any part that is not of interest.

The funniest instance was an infuriated coworker calling me names, ready to fight me. He must have raged on fir 10 whole minutes while i calmly looked at him without expession. After his rage my conclusion was that he was right and calmly told him he was, next shift we will do it the way you've described. If he was wrong i would just say NO.

Made a good friend that day :)

There is a whole spectrum from trying to reach ultimate form to trying not to die and everyone in between.

I measure my heart rate one time for fun. It was insanely high at rest. I felt perfect, full of energy but it was completely obvious i needed to introduce rest days. I conviscated the heart rate monitor and everything was back to normal 3 days later.

If i had a more interested audience my posts would be more interesting.

If it fits in a watch a lot of nondiabetics will also buy it. It can be much cheaper that way.

Twice i read something from someone monitoring and adjusting the indoor air that came to the (expensive) conclusion that nothing beats opening all the windows.

I would add that heated clothing is fantastic. You cant heat the house to 30C and if it gets to warm you cant easily lower the temperature.

I use to live next to a trucker restaurant that opened at 4am. It was a great place to go after a party or a night out.

Its to easy to join and to hard to have dialog or ban users on reddit. It has kind of one single standard while with forums it depends a lot what the topic is. If people are building something together you need to be a productive participant before you can make fart jokes or complaint about your hangover. Accademic forums often had zero tolerance for bullshiting in serious topics. If your reply gives away you didnt read the article you deserve a warning.

You can be as dishonest or helpful as you want. Back when google did organic ranking a lot of communities thrived on forum signatures. If you have thousands of helpful posts others know your level of expertise.

Which part? The hosts often got the better end of the deal.

Today i would much enjoy a monthly elaborate dinner with my girl in exchange for 1x using a bed in a spare room i never use. Renting it out for a day for $ to a stranger is not going to happen but if it did it wouldnt cover the cost for professional cleaning plus a private cook.

I also had friends who never cook and ones who barely clean. I did whole office buildings, vacuuming a livingroom is not going to impress me.

Its dead now but i one time (by hand) build an opml with feeds from pressreleases from the fortune 500. It seemed stupid but turns out no one is looking to crank out shitty pressreleases just for attention. Something has to be noteworthy to the company which turns out to be boring less than 90% of the time. At the very least 99% talks about something that was very expensive.

I also thought it was funny, because it is if you have enough self confidence.

I had an agenda with 2-3 weeks worth of planning to stay with friends and aquaintances. I would never stay at the same place for more than 1 night. The friends would tollerate it for 2 weeks or 2 months but if i limit the visit to 1 day per week, 2 weeks or a month their patience would never run out. The deal was this: you pay for shopping i clean the kitchen entirely, i Cook an elaborate meal, clean the kitchen again, sleep and leave at 8 am.

The funniest were the ones who chose to abuse the deal and turned their kitchen into a giant mess. They pretty much didnt do anything for 14 days. I vaguely knew them, we didnt get along so well but i was excited to see the mess. This looks very welcomming! I joked. Some also ordered elaborate fancy 3 course meals that took some doing. They would enjoy the elaborate candle light dinner together after a day of hard work while i slaved away in their kitchen. Fucking hilarious.

My prediction was that we would create a cpu with a slow and limited opcode set for humans to write on line numbers. Something that is easy to work with with a good static module system with certified sniplets of code. Anything written for it would still run cirkels around higher languages despite slow clock speed. It didnt happen but still could.

To understand you would have had to be there. Computers got faster (and then some) in the old days you would write something (or not even bother) then see it took way longer than desirable. You would rewrite and itterate over possible ways to rewrite. Sometimes you would see the light, other times you would try different approches brute force. The point where optimization was nesasary was completely obvious and 99% of modern code never needs the consideration.

If communism takes over the world and be given 30 years half the texts wouldnt make sense as it talks about something to do with capitalism? that doesnt exist.

Believe it ir not, we've had superior electric vehicles for decades. They are called electric velomobiles and they are amazingly hard to google. You can buy them but they are made in such small quantities that they cost as much as a car.

Here is some random example.

The electric versions are somewhat lagging behind the human powered velo

They are not cars but for transporting yourself from a to b they should do more than fine. Almost no power consumption very little danger als they are to light to do the infamous car crash. They use almost no space on the road and the road lasts much longer.

You also get physical activity which extends life span. Travel normally consumes life span. Under 30 minutes per day you get to the destination in 0 minutes.

If we go full CONAPIRACY: With your browsing history and enough data one can find people who are so much like you that they might do things regularly that you dont even know you are capable of. Your friends relatives and coworkers are also profiled by your data.

More realistic: you wont know by what creapy process they chose to show you an advertisement. We cant imagine it.

Im more worried about the question title turning into a statement of fact.

Sounds cool! I would like pictures with people in the room doing weird things energetically like stand on their chair. Dancing. Confetti booze strange outfits. Bordering the offensive then deleted after 30 minutes.

They drive to remote places for cheap parking. Sometimes all night. The lines often depart from densely populated cities and bring that large capacity to the countryside. You may get thousands of seats for 2-3 customers. In the other direction it is the same. Last miles people are packed like sardines and bring in all of the revenue. If you have 500 seats a 3 euro ticket would at least pay for the trip. 50 cents is better than nothing. Shops at the train station bring in a large part of the money.

There is also a panopticon effect where people behave themselves decently if people are watching.

If a study is goverment funded it seems gov should also review what we paid for. It shouldnt take very long for gov review in a field to earn a reputation?

Not that you should but reading your comment had me think of doing a meta study on the most crappy papers in your field.

Perhaps include as many as possible and attempt to [politely] categorize them.

There should be plenty of opportunty for interesting conversation/networking and lots of help available.

Programmers not law makers really control what goes and doesnt online.

Bittorent and ipfs etc are nice but things would be better if there was a large static archive with desktop clients exchanging chunks in a complex modular way.

Say: I have pages 1-15 of file 123456, you have page 16 but are looking for page 1 of doc 2345, if i can obtain that page a fast exchange is possible. If not a different module can issue an iou that either means i owe something, you are owed something or both. Other modules could create groups that aim to store part of the archive without duplication amoung members. Spam driven modules could also be interesting.

The archive can be organized by how dubious the copyright is so that one can limit participation to 50 or 100+ year old publications and/or living or dead authors.

Its not unlike living on a far away island with the british empire seeking to control every aspect of your life without sufficient means of force.

I dont know how things are in germany but in the netherlands a lot more people own cars which slows down traffic.

All over the world they keep rebuilding congestion points only for traffic to increase.

If making public transport cheaper attracts more travelers there will be fewer cars on the road. The money spend on public transport will aso make car travel more efficiënt. Roads will last longer. Fewer upgrades are needed. Cars will last longer. etc

It is hard to picture how many cars it takes to move a train full of people.

> 7.6 percent fewer kilometres travelled by car.

> German cars were recorded to have travelled 582.4 billion kilometers.

Sounds like an attack vector

The real puzzle imho is to get people to use public transport for the mostly empty route and time combinations. There are many of those for different reasons.

Trains are so heavy it doesnt really cost or save anything if there are people inside or not.

Its like restaurants throwing away food.

Roads are much more efficient with fewer cars.

Yeah, would take years to fact check.

I think we have to go from the factory village to the village factory and start designing/building houses to work from.

Examples excluded on purpose. :)
