I mean that's definitely cherry picking portions of the wiki. Both of the articles refer to each other much more than those examples, not that that really matters. Plus the Supply …

What doesn't RCV fix about FPTP? And what issues does it introduce? I've seen discussions around how it can be more confusing than the current system, and can reduce confidence in …

Oahu has some of the best US ramen I've ever had. Pretty much incomparable to most cities I've lived in, including places like SF and Seattle.

I thought that was more about correctly interpreting their asks, and not just actioning without consideration. If all your customers are saying your chair could use a cushion, it d…

Or we listen to the experts who are frustrated with the system? They see the effects even if they don't know the AI model causing it.

Are you agreeing with the parent and giving examples of regulations that have been debated? Or are you trying to give examples of some of the "strawmen" regulations? A lot of these…

Sure, much easier to make a decision for yourself that helps you cope with the USA lifestyle than it is to change the USA on a short time scale. There are of course other decisions…

Although if the cup is warm to begin with, then you're using energy to warm up the cup which would eat into those energy savings. The "optimal" drinking temperature of espresso is …

Even that article carries on about the experience of having the coffee hot, eg "This doesn’t mean drinking room-temperature coffee exclusively. The complete experience encompasses …

I'm aware that AMD was not involved in the VW scandal, and that that's not what TFA is about. Was that not clear? It was a pop culture example of incentives gone wrong to hopefully…

I'm not claiming to know how any major tech company runs their bug bounty program. I'm actually trying to claim that we can't know how AMD (or any of them) do, we can merely expres…

How do we know the incentive is to pay out bounties? And how do we know that doesn't change on the whims of the management chain? We don't "know" anything unless we are at that com…

Are you talking about the Lilly Insulin Value Program? If you're uninsured, you do need to get the savings card but it's mostly a matter of filling out the form. And that's only si…

There are quite a few visible hands driving the fruit industry. Trade agreements, tariffs, water rights, disease/blight controls, and of course weather events/patterns are regularl…

Sure, but I would consider mines laid in a strait a barrier or fence, and I would consider the radiation at Chernobyl a barrier to entry, and I would consider a hedgerow a barrier …

Are you talking about the razor wire that the supreme court allowed the administration to remove from the Texas border? If so, a little disingenuous to say fences and barriors when…

The wand building community is also a fun dive. The reddit and discord is filled with people doing things like animating the rickroll music video to exploiting int overflows to kil…

This was about Meta's platforms not doing enough to protect children from sexual material (and allegedly ignoring employee warnings and lying to the public about it), not intrinsic…

Generally in an article about arresting or sentencing a drug dealer, people don't bring up that the drug users are actually to blame. Now if we're in a discussion around the cartel…

Funny enough, they mention moving to ProtonMail which is at least based out of Switzerland. It makes this whole chain a bit funny, but I don't blame the commenter for not breaking …

I can't comment for anyone else other than me of course, but as a person in NY and who has worked in a customer service job, I do care. I wouldn't ask if I didn't.

His point is pretty simple. Sports don't inherently involve life or death, the whole point is that it's a competition that "respects each other's humanity", eg not a competition to…

An of EROI of 4 would probably already include the poor sunlight conditions of Ireland or would be some old numbers based off old solar technology. Plus there's contention around E…
