This seems ridiculous. If it cost too much then just pick it up yourself. You can leave the house. You aren't doing anything that import. The straw man of amputees doesn't cut it.

Sit down at a piano for the first time Try to play a Chopin Etude Quit piano because it seems impossible and you don't have the "aptitude". This is how people view most skills. Obv…

Do you not realize how dumb this makes you sound?

Better yet when your "friends" get this as well then neither of you have to waste time actually sending anything. Just move the message into a folder too so neither of you have to …

I think the only way to really fight this is to take it to a stupid level. Something like try to take down all videos about aliens on the platform as misinformation. I mean how can…

Personally, I would never buy a "smart" anything besides the phone itself. Such a high % of the population is clinically addicted to the phone though I can't blame anyone who makes…

It seems many people have a completely unscientific view of reality in that they have absolute certainty in what they believe to be true. I think there are people who are looking f…

Wonderful. I am such a Taleb fan boy but have been putting off Designing Data Intensive Applications. I am starting on it this afternoon from this post. I just started on Daniel Ka…

Absolutely. I loved Usenet in the mid 90s. Message boards just seemed like a cool upgrade to Usenet and I didn't have to bother with a reader. I doubt I even had a reader installed…

Completely absurd. You obviously haven't read much of financial history or the history of banking. No one would ever want to trade banking now for the late 19th century. You can't …

This Fed speak for we need to regulate Tether IMO. Of course they don't really believe Tether is a systemic risk.

Absurd. It is like saying the collapse of Lehman Brothers would be good for other bank stocks. When Tether implodes the entire space will deleverage.

Hey yinz . My second home is PGH also although I am not there now. Such a thought provoking post. Thank you. So much to learn from this. I would expect no less from CMU.

I just started on Kahneman's Noise: A Flaw in Human Judgment 2 days ago. I mean it took so long for Kahneman and Tversky ideas on bias to disperse that we can even be talking about…

Sorry Alex, you got nothing.

IMO "monopoly" is possibly an outdated idea. The real problem here is the natural preferential attachment that emerges with tech companies at this scale. "A preferential attachment…

I just can't imagine these are not non-US Military drones. I think the problem is in the US we think of drones as the DJI phantom and not FPV drones. I mean if you look at FPV pilo…
