    Read the article. This applies to outdoor jobs only.

    > Asimov's laws of robotics are flawed too, of course. I always find the common references to Asimov's laws funny. They are broken in just about every one of his books. They are cr…

    Why didn't the author of the article take the 30s I did, and redo the experiment today, with Claude? Rather important, since Claude is what impressed Dawkins, and that impression i…

    I asked Claude the great wall question, and the answer is not what the article describes: That claim is false — and it actually mixes up two separate myths! The Great Wall of China…

    Of course. I'm not rooting for the US' downfall. It is a loss of western values. It saddens me, but it is a fact they're veering away from the French Revolution principles.

    > If they are mapping that to "reduction in green energy" or "reversal of green energy adoption" I think they are very wrong indeed. Because there is a global trend towards green e…

    It's still to be determined if the drop is temporary. From the outside (EU) I see a downward uninterrupted trend since 9/11 and the Patriot Act.

    Have you tried it with something like OpenSpec? Strangely, taking the time to lay out the steps in a large task helps immensely. It's the difference between the behavior you descri…

    I'm Portuguese, so read this as a view from outside. Brexit traded rigid limits on national action for soft limits. It is bonkers, because the soft limits are much harsher! Take, f…

    No. The article explains they do not cure the underlying issue, whatever it is. We have many such drugs, widely accepted as safe and effective.

    Great idea, nice proof of concept. It'd be nice to see a translation into English after we finish the sentence, as it'll inevitably introduce words I don't known yet, and there's a…

    Portuguese has the word "mestre" from the same Latin origin. Since it has evolved in a separate context, it may give a glimpse of the original meaning, way before slavery. A "mestr…

    I tend to draw the line at intrinsic vs extrinsic behavior. The model layer must be able to maintain all intrinsic properties. Whenever it would talk outside the application, it's …

    As with most tasks, you learn by doing. You can't learn to play tennis from a book, in the same fashion you can't learn to think from a book. Find an area where you have to disasse…

    I know this is a popular opinion, but you'll be hard pressed to find a Tesla owner that shares your opinion. It could be self-selection, or it could be that Tesla's user interface …

    Maybe because VW, for example, has actually skirted pollution laws, with intent. Or because PSA management publicly derides any effort for EV transition. Or maybe because Toyota ha…

    Step back a bit and ask yourself: Why not? If it's a great car, and if it has been technologically updated, should you really care that much about a new front grill design? We cons…

    You mean restyling? It's a feature of classic automakers that I actually don't like. It seems aimed at forcing consumers to get a new vehicle by making the old one seem deprecated.…
