Works on Firefox 80

That's weird. I'm working on a MacBook on FireFox 77 with >50 tabs and it's slightly warm at best. I usually am plugged in when doing something like this so I can't comment on batt…

Ah, so reading up on this, it really is unintuitive. I guess the only worry then is if this will bite tax payers. Thanks for the expanation

My understanding of the reserve requirements were that they set how much of the total amount deposited the banks had to hold on to at any given time. Setting the requirement to zer…

I'm not sure I follow your argument. Don't most savers put their money in banks who then have to redeploy it to make a profit? In fact, isn't it more useful to have banks utilize t…

The government should be in the business of fighting predatory pricing. Based on the other comments that people have a very hard time figuring out how much they would be paying(sig…

I guess it's the trade off between backwards compatibility and readability/correctness/maintainability. Both languages will have technical debt overtime. In my opinion, I would muc…

With all of the improvements to static and run-time analysis that we see within compilers like -fsanitize, will it ever get to the point were tools like GDB become obsolete? It see…

Not a Rust programmer. It seems like there is a big difference between a "mathematical certainty that certain bugs will not occur" if you play by the rules and just be a better pro…

I assume the Federal Reserve Board aka the central banking system of the US

They do let you choose a goal? Lose weight, maintain, build muscle.

I am going to assume that the ~35% number that you are giving without context is the number quoted for peak female representation in earning cs degrees in the 80's. If I am wrong, …

I don't disagree but I think that in the average case nurture has a much larger affect on our lives that nature.

Why do you think the issue is biological and not social? Isn't this the nature vs nurture debate?

Robert Martin talks about how in the 60's and 70's women made up a large amount of the worlds programmers. It would seem somewhere along the way we found ways to significantly redu…

If your talking about the US, I would say the way some politicians paints illegal immigrants. Especially when the discussion about them centers around (what I think are exaggeratio…

What if the human emotional state is a byproduct of human consciousness. In that way, it isn't something that can just be chopped off as unnecessary. Not to say that it doesn't hel…

Isn't this the nature vs nurture debate? It seems like this could just as easily be attributed to growing up in a good/happy family. Not to say that genes have no effect, I just th…

I admit that it's unfortunate that AI can't write out their decision logic but I would argue that is because there hasn't been enough resources put into explainable AI. Considering…

Ironically, I think this shows how human-like we have been able to make AI systems.

I guess the question is how well to we expect AI/ML systems to be able to generalize on a biased subset data. If you are trying to use one of these systems to make hiring decisions…

As a user, I don't need Apple arbitrarily allowing big players' apps through their approval process while they hold smaller developers to a stricter standard. I think by "user" it …

"Long enough" is for certain a relative term. I don't think we should be making the comparison to banking software/appliances though. Banks are notoriously slow and I would think a…

Entrenched ideas resist change. Some of the worst ideas in human history have been the ones that have stuck around the longest. It took over a century to adopt the heliocentric mod…
