> I would imagine statistically that having conversations about people's lives all day is more appealing to women than men in the ideal for the job.
Well, a similar line of reasoning is sometimes used to explain why there are more men in coding roles than women and it's widely criticized as inadequate at best.
I mean clearly youtube has poor control if a group of some sorts does an attack on a specific user to lower views.
With that said I just watched Timothy Nguyen's video about Eric Weinstein this weekend and it just confirmed everything I suspected about Eric. I didn't realize he even put in his paper he is not a physicist but an "entertainer".
I think Eric gained traction and brought Brett in on this. They are doing a new form of science fiction IMO. It doesn't really work though if they break character.
The occam's razor between two brothers who have had revolutionary ideas in physics, economics and biology all shelved by an establishment vs two brothers who are podcasters creating content is pretty straight forward.
I am not sure restricting the age like a rated R movie is the worst thing with what they are doing.
"I just watched Timothy Nguyen's video about Eric Weinstein this weekend and it just confirmed everything I suspected about Eric." That's quite the sentence
You shouldn't look at the debt alone. It's not inflation adjusted, and it doesn't account for the economy being far larger today than it was in the 1920s.
Debt to GDP is a better measure. We basically matched WWII on that metric, but the congressional budget office projects we'll exceed that going forward.
That looks like unadjusted dollars? It's a crazy graph, as the biggest pre-pandemic event in USA fiscal history (World War II) is simply invisible on this graph. As a point of comparison USA debt hit 101% of GDP in 1946, a level we only rose above recently, because of the pandemic:
Why was this downvoted? World War II was the largest fiscal event in USA history (before the pandemic) and it is invisible on this graph, therefore the graph has little explanatory power. Why would I be downvoted for pointing that out?
I don't know why you got downvoted -- but there is a definitely a visible artifact on that chart between 1939 and 1946, it's just not all that huge compared to modern deficit spending.
Right, but it should be huge, it was only significantly surpassed by the pandemic in 2020, which is a clue that these are unadjusted dollars, and so the graph lacks any explanatory power.
I hate to be a conspiracy theorist but if covid was made in a lab this seems like the biggest grift of all time. I can't imagine how much of that money just disappeared.
I have lifted for 35+ years now. The only thing I don't like is how popular powerlifting has become.
Everyone I know that has been into powerlifting for a long time including myself is paying the price with disc herniation, bad knees, etc.
We really need gyms to get belt squat machines or pit sharks so people stop balancing barbells on their spine with huge weights and move up and down. Kind of obvious what is going to happen over time.
Lifting heavier weights than you have previously is super addictive.
I don't think it really helps my mood nearly as much as hard conditioning or even long walks but I don't really know what it is like to not lift at this point.
I'm going to push back a bit on the no powerlifting. Like any other sport or exercise, risk vs reward needs to be looked at, but increasing strength is almost always useful. I would tell everyone to power lift, but also tell them there is zero reason to ever do 1RMs (use 3RM or 5RM and just calculate). And if people are really conservative, then set sane maxes like no more than 2x BW for squat/DL.
I powerlifted for many years, and have only had major injuries from sports - a torn ACL (wakeboarding) and disc herniation (basketball). In both cases, my doctors/PTs said my base strength accelerated my recovery.
“Every runner you know”, as with OP and powerlifting? Or just a few? Because there’s a wide gulf between a subset being injured and injury being a foregone conclusion. To miss that is to miss OP’s point.
My anecdotes (to go with OPs) is that the competitive powerlifters I know have injuries, and the 'gymbro' types who use the big lifts for health and some light bodybuilding, for the most part do not.
Chasing that new ATH is addictive, and a great way to exceed what your body can safely handle.
I think the larger problem is that everybody expects that they have to get better, and they have to get better quickly. That's why people injure themselves doing pretty much anything requiring physical exertion.
Recovery is important. Maybe it will be better if people see
exercise as a secondary tool for improving their health/recovery rate, rather than the primary tool for becoming more powerful.
unless you start overloading it too fast, and lift too close to failure and with bad technique...
I love deadlifts, but It is very easy to mess up your back with them. On the other hand, whenever I didn't deadlift, eventually started getting random back pains (from sitting too long), and wrists pains (from typing) as those muscles were getting weaker.
TLDR: Deadlifting, powerlifting and such are great for your back and posture, as long as you don't push yourself to your limits (keep it within 80-85% of your max) and watch your technique.
Most people want to push their personal envelope, and that's where they get injured.
I stopped using social media because I was sick of having this critic in my brain constantly judging if an experience is worth posting on social media.
Of course this is a huge trade off with not knowing what my elderly neighbor at a cottage I never go to had for lunch.
I installed Pop!_OS 21.04 last week and use a USB mic/headphones. After some googling I had to apply this fix to turn off the power saving subsystem which was turning the card on and off. This is on a desktop computer.
I have no idea what you are installing or if you are talking about the year 2005.
KDE Neon in 2021 on SSD takes me about 15 min to reinstall completely with no configuration.Everything just works. It is easier than Windows.
I barely even know any unix commands beyond ls after using some form of KDE plasma for around 4 years now. Everything has just worked for a long time now.
I use a script for dealing with Windows post-install. It's 120 lines long and still incomplete. My Linux install is around the same ballpark.
Have you ever attempted to install Windows at scale? Windows installation process is not a paragon of just works simplicity. It's a horrendously complex piece of software. Having sane defaults doesn't change things that much.
That's not true at all, 3 to 4 clicks won't even get you through formatting the hard drive. Not to mention Windows Update never seems to install the correct drivers for my motherboard and very outdated drivers for my gpu.
Linux install is pretty similar and the only driver issue I have with it is my video card.
This is like people reading research in the 50s that smoking causes lung cancer. Even if true what are we going to do? Everybody smokes so lets just keep smoking instead of trying to quit.
Yea I think this is a bit harsh. I don't think it is quite such a trivial task to figure out when a FPV drone has such degrees of freedom. It can basically change to any direction at any time. Then the known space is the air in the room.The humans are also training on a known course.
A legit drone racing pilot is incredible at this also so it is not like there is a ton of meat on the bone to pick at.
It is cool from the perspective of racing drones even if less impressive from the perspective of AGI or something.
A drone can in fact not accelerate in any direction at any time. It can only accelerate along the thrust vector which is the normal of the plane that the rotors sit on.
That’s a distinction without a difference. In theory, of course you’re correct. In practice, your parent comment is correct.
The rotation rate in the roll or pitch axis is around 1080 degrees per second - 3 complete revolutions per second. Many freestyle pilots fly higher rates than me.
I can, and do, go from 80mph in one direction, flip 180degrees to accelerate back to 80mph in the direction i just came - a 160mph change of speed in around 5-6 seconds approx.
The only axis i cant turn very fast in is yaw (quads have poor yaw authority compared to other axes) but even then it’s fast enough most people would consider it instant.
Once you are on the job though you quickly realize what a terrible job it is and after a time leverage it into something else.
Black women in the US are what about 7% of the population?
So most likely any random HR interview is with a younger white woman.
