    Who uses this? I can only think of college kids. I imagine anyone going performance related is going to be using either multiple machines and/or multi threading. In those cases you…

    What kind of stat problems? Also I used to love Python... Until I got a full time job and learned why static typing exists.

    I wonder if philosophy can solve the first 4? The later through Science/logic where it's possible.

    Same question but for general Linux distros. Not sure I'm willing to try Ubuntu for the 8th time. I use Linux server all the time, but I don't want to mess with configurations and …

    Epidemiologists are the experts, I'm baffled why so many people are asking physicians about coronavirus. Physicians are not scientists, they aren't supposed to make policy decision…

    No Politicians framed the issue like this. Canceling school in 3 month bursts is a political move because it's much harder to tell a generation of parents their kids won't return t…

    I'll give you some credit since Programming is not Science/Engineering but rather some combination of Science/Authority/Tradition/Art. But in science fields, authors names don't re…

    It's best to seperate the human from their technical work. I do technical work and unfortunately can't contain my Politics on social media (due to their psychology tricks). I know …

    I find the opposite True. I imagine you watch lots of Apple ads.

    Build quality is a term non engineers use. It's a marketing term. Seems like you got sucked up into it. Edit- butterfly keyboard, airpods, bad iphone signals come to mind

    Don't call it a garden. That's just propaganda from the dictators.

    So what? Kn95 mask it up. Your gym population isn't going to clog up hospitals. And we need to kill this myth that every old person lives with their kid. Terrible Unscientific poli…

    The whole opening bars/restaurants/casinos but closing gyms is mind boggling. I understand keeping the population subdued with circuses, but you'd think politicians would realize t…

    I read that Japan is doing well because they use kn95 masks. It baffles me we haven't been giving these away to old and obese people.

    I'd be shocked if this ever made it to production. I'd be more shocked if they did this for 2 generations of pixels. The problem with vertical integration is how fast you can be ob…

    That unfortunately isn't the Republican platform. We are taught that in school, but their policy doesn't line up with that. There is a strong debate to be made Biden is more fiscal…

    The timing here is awfully Political. I imagine Democrats wouldn't do this if they had control of the government. Seems like lip service to their bases.

    I have an even lower cost industry, Programming/coding/mechanical turk. You can do this on a rpi3. No need for machines, a supply chain, logistics. Sure traditionally this was true…

    I think people forget that "quality" stuff survives, but there was always a cheap alternative to "quality". The olden days were not better. Obligatory-"survivorship bias"
