I am not hand waving it. This line was commented ad nauseam when the book was released and is the one people who have no idea of neither what in the Greek text nor what’s in the tr…

> Four hours of knowledge work a day is actually a lot. The average corporate worker probably does far less. Meetings, small talk, answering emails, etc. feel like work, but most o…

Evidence and proof are the same word in my own native language. > There's a lot of circumstantial evidence Hardly. You could arbor doubts for the people who ate at her place but fo…

The complaint - which I definetely share by the way - is that for all the critical acclaim it got, Emily Wilson's translation strays so far from the actual text, it is not really a…

Imagine randomly accusing someone of multiple murders on the internet with absolutely no proof.

Sure, I'm convinced that no one is going to riot when they get their their lifetime savings casually wiped out. I bet on them fully understanding that they just made a terrible dec…

At this point, the EU has the worst of both a free market based economy and a planned one. Profits goes to corporate owners when they exist and losses are taken up by the general p…

> I'm not sure what the banking market is like in Italy Significantly less competitive than in the USA.

I am not sure myself. The past two decades have shown that banking is a sector which needs to be tightly regulated and bankers can never be trusted to not do utterly stupid things …

It's even easier to not do the study if you are going to use bogus data anyway.

Unsurprisingly, highly regulated sectors like banking where entering is extremely hard display cartel like behaviors. There is no incentive coming from the competition so why would…

I will bet on the usual confounding variables when it comes to lifestyle study. Highly likely that eating late at night means coming home late, probably due to working late which p…

There is little point of doing a study based on BMI when what you want is body fat. BMI is imperfect. It’s fine when you want to give people a quick metric for them to assess their…

Given the delay to get cars right now, I'm guessing Europe has significantly less "bog-standard" fabs that you think it does.

R&D is a significant part of what you have to amortise. I'm guessing they are going to pay the machinery significantly less than if it was brand new. Part of it might even be reloc…

Anyone has a link to some communication from the university of Maryland which is not written by a teenager? They must be one if they spent time trying to reproduce the material.

> with a good example of how it's better than any other parser generator. I already told you that it has full support for disambiguating LR(1) grammar and still generating a parser…

It can generate elegant and efficient parsers for LR(1) grammars. > I tend to prefer hand written parsers, either via a combinator library or fully manually. That’s common with peo…

I will take any of the dozen of sometimes very large compilers written in Ocaml above rustc personally but to each their own.

It is definitely very legible here and at least as legible as the Rust equivalent. It’s actually a lot more legible than the Rust equivalent here to be fair. The Ocaml program is m…

Personally, it’s not so much that I disagree. It’s more that Ocaml has a top notch ecosystem for compiler writing. That’s probably by far its strongest point with library like Menh…

I think it’s your inexperience talking here as programs in both languages here use mostly the same naming conventions and abbreviations, the main difference being that Ocaml is its…

China knows that and doesn’t want to annexe Taiwan through violence. They would much prefer Taiwan to join with minimum damage. That’s always been their play book. It is flexing ri…
