This is the absolute opposite take of what is actually happening. We are in the most capitalist time ever. There are a few people who own all the wealth, 2 of them are also in cont…

Makes sense why I've not seen gates in many places but metro networks and high speed. I agree that there will always be spots where the rails can be reached. As with many parts of …

I'm not sure what the situation is in Denmark and guess you live in a less populated area. But if you travel by train you would ideally take public transport to the main hub. A dec…

You can thank all local train operators for this. They have been fighting a shared ticketing system tooth and nail at the European level and the weak politicians in Europe who don'…

There are things that can be done about people jumping in front of trains. Making sure the rails are not accessible with fences around them. Putting camera's at spots where people …

So because we want to keep government small and ad companies can get so big they basically invade every part of your life you have to leave your phone, close your eyes, stay offlin…

If I walk outside I'm bombarded by ads. Almost all websites have been tailored to include ads and hide information. You're tracked on all devices you touch. Vaguely referencing mor…

This looks like it's going to be a huge issue once the news spreads more. Basically all Intel 13th and 14th gen consumer CPU's can't be trusted and changing the clocks doesn't help…

In most video's you see the lifeguard jump in and get the person out.

If your kid can't swim you shouldn't let it go in on its own. There is no reason to spoil the fun for everyone. You can ban all fun or tell parents to use common sense and have a b…

There are many laws against advertising cigarettes for instance. There could be similar laws against unhealthy foods and alcohol. Lets try all these things before we say laws are n…

I think this is very naive. The whole reason marketing is so lucrative is because the human brain is so easily exploited. That exploitation is to no benefit of society or the indiv…

The other option is someone scouring through the mess of commits to find out what should be in the changelog or you have to update the changelog with each commit to the main branch…

This argument only makes sense if you think of Apple as an entity that has a nationality. It's an internationally traded company that is therefore owned by international money. The…

You not understanding what my comment means is incredibly thematic.

That background would make you explicitly unqualified to asses the quality of box plots as a visualization method. Box plots are used throughout various fields of research that are…

Are you sure that well trained audiences are able to accurately asses box plots. For instance, most drivers think they are better than average drivers. It being a staple in statist…

Why would you even use plots at all. You could just show the numbers for the 4 points represented in the box plot and people with proper education would understand. If people need …

You absolutely should stop using box plots. The only reason to use them is because you have to draw a representation by hand and do not have access to a computer. A box plot is a d…

Never apply Hanlon's razor to that which can be adequately be explained by disregard for the consequences.

I don't think Qualcomm or any of the current market leaders will be the first to do a big RISC-V push. While dealing with the ARM company might be a hassle having an exclusive ISA …

There are other ways to make sure people can travel but I understand those are hard to imagine if you live somewhere where you only have hammers.

I don't think building a bunch of year round useless charging capacity is useful. But I also think relying on car infrastructure for Thanksgiving is a bad idea and that hasn't stop…

There are some problems with just showing people the people they follow in chronological order. It limits the amount of accounts you can follow, it buries accounts that post on tim…

This limits how many people you can follow. You can't follow people who occasionally post a banger but also post a lot of stuff you don't care about. I don't think algorithms are t…
