People are bad at telling if they're overloaded. The fact that only 20% self-report as overloaded is pretty unsurprising. But look at the way people choose the news that they prefer. That's an actual example of them being overloaded by (mis?)information and unable to handle it. Way more than 20% of people are unable to synthesize enough information to have a clear view of what's real and what's not.
IIRC, Binge On was strictly based on protocols... was it identifiable as video and did it respond to commands to downgrade to 240p
That is, anyone can do it. Although there was paperwork you had to fill out saying that you abided by those limitations, so possibly it was de facto non-neutral even though it was expressed as a neutral policy.
Of course the few remaining people will be crucial. They just imagine that the few remaining people will be them, their interchangable secretaries, and some yes-men.
I actually imagine CEO positions will be replaced by AI far earlier than "guy who declogs the toilets" or "guy who fixes the X machine when it breaks"
You're talking about power... which is a different topic. After all, Bill Gates has more power to get his message out than the vast majority of companies. Now, I'd be happy to talk about whether that means that limitations have to be placed on Bill Gates's speech (for example, campaign contributions limitations).
But the point I was making is actually different. I was saying corporations occupy a midstep when it comes to being an artificial organization, expressing one view, while simultaneously representing multiple individuals. One of the reasons we don't want society to condemn certain speech acts is that, pretty much because those views are being expressed by a member of society, we can confidently assert that not all members of a society feel that way. So we limit society's ability to act. Similarly, a company is made up of many individuals. Allowing a company to speak with one voice means that some of their employees/owners/etc. are being misrepresented.
Crediting Hawking for inflation is yet another example of the Matthew Effect.
So is crediting Einstein for the idea that light, in a vacuum, moves at a constant speed. In fact, that was the assumption he used, which then caused him to invent special relativity and general relativity to explain away paradoxes that arose from reconciling that rule with, you know, non-quantum physics.
Funny, that's the #1 value on the Agile Manifesto!
That's not interesting. People are important. Agile recognizing that isn't a benefit of Agile. Unless it's the only methodology that did. (Hint, it's not)
Still not enough? This HP survey found that 69% of development shops now are pure agile or "leaning" agile.
See, "shops using Agile" is irrelevant. Absolutely irrelevant.
Science isn't that hard. If you wanna talk about why X is good, and Y exists, you have to compare the results of X and Y. If you showed that 80% of places had an increase in productivity after switching from Y to X, that makes sense. If you talk about a controlled study where people are randomly assigned X and Y, and the group assigned X improves, that makes sense. Even if you somehow account for which groups choose X over Y, you can let individuals chose (but that's harder).
Bottom line, there may be arguments for Agile development, but you have yet to make any.
Sorry, I meant to type "society has a goal of having laws followed". And that's true. And the laws are, as decided by whatever governing body, things in societies best interest. But I would say, even avoiding the benefits from following the laws based on the specific law, society cannot function if its laws are flouted. Hence, society has an interest in either enforcing or removing laws.
When Agile fails, it is almost always due to the implementation NOT actually being agile
When Waterfall fails, it is almost always due to the implementation NOT actually being waterfall.
It's a process. A process should be judged based on its expected outcome in a typical use case. Give me brilliant programmers, and you can use any* methodology. Give me horrible programmers and you cannot use any methodology. The case that Agile needs to make is given average programmers (of whatever subset based on skill Agile claims to apply to), Agile produces better results. Cherry-picking in either direction is retarded.
Ironically, after railing against cherry-picking as something used by Agile's detractors, you cherry picked LinkedIn and Amazon.
From what I read, there was no attempt to find other explanations
Nope. Nor do they claim hacking was the cause. They explicitly say they think the vote is fair, but using the election results this way is the best way to get someone to finally audit the machines.
The invisible hand is that people acting in their own self interests push forth societies goals. Society has a goal of having laws. Beyond the general "laws should be followed", there is som reason that regulation was passed, and that would be for some societal goal. Those goals are undermined by the existence of a black market.
We see the so-called invisible hand at work all the time, typically in black markets and people finding ways to end-around regulation.
First, and most meaninglessly, GP was making an anti-religion point. Second, and far more importantly, black markets and illegally avoiding regulation are not examples of the invisible hand in economics.
The data is part of a feedback cycle. Of course math itself isn't racist, but the way its used most certainly can be. If black people were correlated with defaults in the 1970's (which they were, in no small part due to racist policies), and that's part of the training set for AI, and that AI can find data that indicates race, that AI will discriminate against black people.
Is it though? I mean, those ratios of scores seem comprable to men. That is, among men, I would assume that approx 7.5x as many men would qualify for WGM alone as GM
The actually court document introduction focuses on tax avoidance.
Actually, the court document focuses on tax evasion. The difference is huge - avoidance is legal. Evasion is getting paid in cash and never reporting it. Avoidance is getting paid by your employer, and maxing your 401k
So, with the equality of opportunity achieved long ago, the inequality of results is telling us something
You're assuming that we achieved equality of opportunity. I believe the entire point of an election like this goes something like "inherit bias among men to selecting men means opportunity is not equal, and will remain unequal until the voting block is significantly gender mixed."
We already have Women Grandmasters in chess â" because appallingly few ladies could rise to the real GM.
Created a long time ago to jump start women into chess. And now, most women who hit WGM also hold gender-netural titles. Most IM, but the top ones are in the unrestricted GM category (source: Your link)
I'm not sure there is a solution.
it's valid to complain about someone "only complaining and not fixing the problem" if the missing action requires money, or effort, or political will. But this requires coming up wiht a solution.
Was Xeno "just complianing" when he articulated his paradox?
Some barriers to entry are bad, "You have to be white/male". Some are neutral, "You have to have been first". Some are good, 'You have to know structural engineering to design bridges". I think the lowering of barriers here is somewhat of a bad thing. Professional journalists at least try to avoid outright lies, for example.

My understanding is that selling off all your assets right before entering bankruptcy is a reason to have those sales reversed by the courts.

I tried using my phone only underwater, and now they say the warranty is void!
I'd totally let him hem my pants. Sewing/stitching is one of a surgeon's basic skills.
I grant that expertise has limitations, but you have to know where skills overlap.

But we also have companies, which occupy a space between an individual and society in total.
Why would I leave my phone close enough to wake me when I go to sleep?
I believe that succeeded

Seems a bit early to speculate. Tons of preorders may be good, or may cause the whole thing to disappear if it fails to live up to expectations.

And it's assholes like you who refuse to pay your taxes that have me actually rooting for the IRS in this regard.
But, if you think that's bad, just wait until the IRS decides to charge tax on every bitcoin transfer. After all, they're public.
