Quite possible, but I’ve also seen genuine bullying this way too.

They would only be forced to if she filed a lawsuit against the anonymous caller. People have done that before.

I do that. I got thc-v extract isolated in a lab from someone in the industry (supposedly a bit more of a simulant), when I took it I passed out until the next day and was depressed for a week after that. There’s some poorly understood relationship here, but my doc said it confirms my (very mild) type 2 bipolar suspicion/diagnosis.

How do you define young?

I’m definitely too old but I loved Tarkov before cheaters ruined it.

I know some early-20’s folks who grew up on DayZ.

Both games very hard to not suck at.

You disagree with my statement that is not actually contradicted by anything in your statement, apart from your open acceptance of flawed studies?

My question then is this: what do they teach kids to allow them to spot flaws and what do they teach them as the method for determining who is reputable? Beyes theorem? How to control for multiple variables? I don’t actually know whether they go into this or tell kids to JUST trust an authority.

Flawed studies have done all kinds of harm over the years before being retracted. Linking vaccines to autism for one.

Interns do but should not get the level of write access that makes a durable change impacting all customers. Deadlock a server or even wipe SQL tables, this is an outage. Break a customer’s configuration, send the wrong client’s paperwork, again small scale problem you can deal with. Interns don’t change company policy.

I think it’s a more foundational architecture question: why do you push builds to all customers at once without gating it by SOMETHING that positively confirms the exact OTA update package has been validated? The absolute simplest thing I can think of is pushing to 1 random car and waiting for the post-install self tests to pass before pushing to everyone else. Maybe there’s actually no release automation?? But then you make it safe a different way. It’s just defensive coding practice, I’m not even a CS degree but learned on the job something always breaks so you generally account for the expectation that everything will fail by making a fail-safe just so the failure is not spectacular. Nothing fancy, just enough mitigation to keep the fuck up from eating into your weekend if it happens on a Friday.

149 camera feeds of the person watching the 1 video should be enough no?

That’s the thing though, outside of studies published in journals where you look up their ranking and it’s high enough that you trust the peer review, how do you tell the difference between imperfect and flawed in a way that renders the conclusion useless to your use case? It’s not a rhetorical question, that’s what I’m saying requires deeper knowledge and where you should not trust it alone without having qualified help review it for you. And without the help, yeah it’s just as well to go without.

Not a Republican but see one risk and one flaw in teaching kids to rely 100% on science: there are strategic reasons to make some decisions which you miss if you rely solely on “science” sources. The biggest risk here is if kids are taught to trust anything called “science” but not how to differentiate between good studies and bad studies - there are journals that will publish anything, and it’s easy to manipulate people if they cannot effectively differentiate between good and bad studies, which requires a deeper understanding of statistics and ability to think critically about the variables tested, controlled, and overlooked or ignored.

I agree porn addiction has been around for a long time, but it’s very different not that we’re reaching a point in time where people who are expected to be adults and functional in their mid 20’s grew up in a world of ubiquitous Internet access and had smart phones.

So while porn addiction existed since photography, this is the first time we get to see the effect of population-wide unrestricted access to these things from a very young age.

It’s actually probably better now with parent-child account management and the like, which didn’t exist at all 15-20 years ago. Also 15-20 years ago CSAM, death imagery, real rape and mutilation videos were all on the front pages of openly accessible .com’s anyone could visit.

I wasn’t kidding. https://www.thoughtco.com/the-giant-jewel-beetle-1968152

Imagine an alien species bombarded the planet with real-dolls, we basically did that to this species of beetle

There are things every mating creatures brain is hard wired to look for, as signals of a healthy and breedable mate

Like the caricatures of sexual perfection in porn, the brown beer bottle happens to be the anime girl of a species of beetle whose males will regularly get carried away trying to reproduce with manufactured human garbage creating an actual risk to the species

“unproven” because it’s Texan. Fuck The Verge, Internet porn addiction is as real as those beetles that have sex with beer bottles because they’re brown and perfectly glossy like an ideal mate.

Freak out a little then masturbate all morning for sure.

Look you’re the one who reached your cognitive limit and switched to name calling. Call me whatever you like but you’re the one being a petulant child while I was mistakenly attempting to speak with you as if you were capable of engaging in a real conversation.

I brought up points you clearly never knew or thought of and you shut down.

You need to find an echo chamber on Reddit if you want someone to stroke your comfort zone.

You’re 12 aren’t you?

You’re right that you cannot pay a dividend but you missed the check on your knowledge of how wealth and money work: that money doesn’t exist. Only a miniscule fraction of that wealth exists as a budget you can just spend as you know it. All that those billionaires have is the ability to tell people what to do and all they can spend is reallocating productivity towards other goals. All the money that actually gets spent goes into other people’s pockets and gets spent in turn. The inefficiently in this system is far lower than the inefficiency in a planned economy.

Your grasp of how money works is surface level.

Let’s start here: billionaires do not have billions of dollars like Scrooge McDucks swimming in gold. They hold securities for companies that are doing things on the idea that they can sell them and redeploy that capital later.

In other words: the money means nothing. All that wealth means is they’re the ones who control resources.

By similar reasoning, modern monetary theory is that government can print money and activate unused resources without driving inflation very much.

So what you want is a planned economy. Soviet style. In fact the language you use makes it clear you’re fully bought into tankie propaganda.

There are 3 ways to make people do things: money, love and power. So am I going to give you everything you need because of love? money is clearly not the means to ends in your system. That leaves the threat of unaliving.

And so we’re back at gun control, the only way your kind is able to make such a system work: by killing everyone who disagrees.

Ok so America has 300,000,000 people. That’s $3 per person for every billion dollars. Come on genius, bring that math, explain how all those billions divide into everyone having everything they need and everyone else will absolutely deliver those needs.
