I‘ve seen lots of people go the other way, moving towards a more self centered view of the world as they age.

In college, studying mathematics, probability was the course in did best in. The funny part is that I have a form of ilnumeria. Effectively I can’t count.

Can you please explain to me again why you need a lincoln navigator or the like?

Sarcasm aside, most shoes are pretty bad for your feet.

Apple has a runtime system that looks a lot like smalltalk. Everything at that layer is dynamic. They needed a language that could seamlessly interact with that system.

Im not sure if I feel seen or accused. :)

There are wonderful parallels with Wilhelm II of Germany. It just takes one idiot at the top with no understanding of his own failings to undermine decades of careful diplomacy and policy.

The person you were responding to said that cyan feels like a completely different color to them, neither green nor blue.

A v1 was 30 feet long with a 20 foot wing span, and had no evasive capabilities.

As far as I know just the USA, and yes, even black doctors.

As an aside, it is a well established fact that doctors, as a whole, take the the pain of black people much less seriously than the pain of non-black people.

The problem might be that our brains charge per token, which makes reviewing hard. :)

Isn’t the entire point of a cryptographically secure hash that you can’t derive the original information?

Palantir’s entire business model is a GDPR violation, isn’t it?

Really? Wind and solar are cheaper. Electric cars and motorcycles are more fun to drive.

Fossil fuels are profitable for a small group of powerful people, and they spend vast amounts of money to spread falsehoods.

This is the way. You have to have some amount of flexibility in your plans.

The person you’re replying to is saying that in the several years the technological means to impersonate people at scale has become widely available, and because of this financial institutions are having to strengthen their security measures to defend against fraud.

As a US citizen, I have to say that you are completely mistaken. The US is a privacy hellscape.
