The guy is experimenting on himself to see how he can improve his health. What is wrong with that?
People eating junk like chips and coke getting triggered because I guy wants to better himself: humans, truly I tell you.
Destroy housing -> destroy people's future and family creation.
Air b&b is cancer for people trying to start families as it destroys all local affordable housing.
We are developers, not mobile casual users: I want the most tools in the smallest amount of space.
I don't wan't 500 pixels of damn padding between menu items.
If there is no profit in it for someone the platform won't improve.
It's the classic "the capitalist owns a restaurant vs the people own a restaurant, but which has better food".
So much nutritional studies have been done on animals and yet we know that different animals react totaly different to eg saturated fats and atherosclerosis.
Animals are a garbage proxy for anything human related.
>> We conclude with recommendations that professional societies in mathematics should sponsor an (international) code of ethics, institutional mission statements for mathematicians and syllabuses for incorporation into mathematics degrees.
Gotta put that subjectivity in mathematics.
Mathematics, as the purest of sciences, cannot have ethics in it. Ethics are a human invention: the laws of the universe have no ethics. They simple "are".
"Put ethics in math" is a veiled way of saying "we will regulate what math is acceptable for you to do and what not".
And since this is an oath this implies you WILL BE PUNISHED FOR BREAKING IT. No more truth, just subjectivity.
The year is 2045: you need to obtain a permission from the European Union Mathematics Ethics Comittee before you are allowed to execute a vector cross product on your CPU in your own code.
Also: medical doctors take the oats. But then the pharma drug rep comes along...
If we were hunter gatherers who hunted megafauna then we ate TONS of meat in the past, so this is not a difference.
And there are also cultures who do fine without veggies, the Inuit.
The last time we tried this expriment with novel new foods 10% of USA got diabetes.
Do tell me how your children will end up in 20 years of this kind of food.
The good food institude is the lobbying arm of the lab grown protein companies.
>> ...a Y Combinator funded non-profit that promotes plant- and cultivated meat alternatives to conventional animal meat

Also look at stocks at these fake food companies: they are all going down.
But compared to the communistic forms of socialism? Do look at what shitshow of living and totalitarian condition were in Yugoslavia, USSR, China under Mao etc...
There is also conflation of "bankers hold all the money" as if that is a thing exclusive to capitalism. Look at communist contries: the leaders ARE RICH! Josip Broz Tito, Mao etc...all communist leaders were rich! It's the same thing: Joe Sixpack didn't own much neither in communism nor capitalism.
But in capitalism you the best of the best atleast have a chance to get somewhere by their own above average ability.
The problem is corruption in capitalism.
Or can we go deeper: the problem is human nature?
If so, is this even solvable?
These politicians truly are the stupidest form of humans alive.
>> “The model in Norway is that everyone should contribute relevant to ability and therefore those that have a greater ability to pay taxes, should pay a little more.”
Since taxes are based on % rich already paid more.
Reactionism. While alchochol and highly processed junk food is being sold without even a peep!
Switzerland has the same or even more guns then USA per capita and they don't have these problems.
So the author destroys his entire argument in the 1st two lines.
Myopic thinking: the country that will have the most powerful AI first will be the leader in everything.
>> If the policy starts with the U.S., then China needs to see that the U.S. is not seeking an advantage but rather trying to prevent a horrifically dangerous technology which can have no true owner and which will kill everyone in the U.S. and in China and on Earth.
Imagine being so naive you belive this could ever happen.
Also: imagine the year is 1900. You are saying that steam power and electricity is causing way too many changes way too fast so they put a moratorium on it until the year 2500.
We would still be using candles today.
He literally waited his entire life for this moment, obviously he's gonna milk it to every drop.
Big food pissed off that they can't sell you their sludge.
While the same groups will keep on developing it but behind closed doors.
You young sister might not be able to bring in a lot of money, but she can atleast get a part time job to cover her own expenses/hobbies. Everyone can do what they can.
But if they refuse to do atleast the things they can then it's byebye, not your problem anymore.
Imagine this scenario: if the women fail to understand that you have your own desire and will to live your own life and instead demand that you bend and destroy your own life so that they can do stupid stuff themselves: well, do you realize how selffish they are and how little they truly care about you?
You don't need to be worthy of anyone but yourself. That is manipulation that parents/grandparents do on their children and it's horribly destructive as it will only riddle you with guilt. F** living up to your father, do the things that vibe with you.
Your sister will (somehow) need to come to terms that $$ is needed in life. If money is scarce then stop paying for her lessons and tell her to get a part time job as she must come to understand asap that things cost $$ in real life.
The guy to which you are replying is 100% correct. This is not the time for luxury. And if those women won't understand this and complain then ghost them: your life has priority: DO NOT LET THEM DESTROY YOUR OWN LIFE JUST SO THAT THEY CAN LIVE SOME IGNORANT LUXURIOUS LIFE! YOUR (FUTURE) FAMILY/CHILDREN IS WHAT MATTERS MOST! Do not destroy your life with ignorant people!
Also: stop letting that family to live in that apartment rent free! YOU are what matters, not them. Charge them or kick them out and get a new family.
No need to kill yourself with unproductive tools.
Perhaps what also makes one a better programmer is the simple realization that curiousity is one thing, but using stupid tools is a fools errand when nowadays there is a better tool for everything than tedious text editors.
