They are entitled to COBRA

baseball is an arms race though. In golf the ball is on a tee. In baseball, the pitchers get better every year, and throw faster every year.

There's innovation happening on both ends.

Those of us that have been around quite a while have seen consistent ‘rapid progress’ in technology and automation over the last 30+ years. This isn’t the first time there’s a new world changing technology.

loved - in the past tense?

Its important to realize that TOR is primarily funded and controlled by the US Navy. The US benefits from the TOR being private.

It provides a channel for operatives to exfiltrate data out of non-NATO countries very easily.

To be fair, not all definitions of Zionism refer to colonizing the area around jerusalem. More generally, zionism is around creating a jewish state and controlling their own destiny.

most people taking this strategy that I know use platinum instead of gold. Most engagement rings only have ~~~$200 worth of gold on them.

The way I see it, its undetermined if Generative AI will be able to fully do a SWE job.

But, for most of the debates I've seen, I don't think it the answer matters all too much.

Once we have models that can act as full senior SWEs.. the models can engineer the models. And then we've hit the recursive case.

Once models can engineer models better and faster than humans, all bets are off. Its the foggy future. Its the singularity.

('18 alum) Yeah I agree. We even had internal-only versions of OCW with more recent recordings and more material.

Although I agree that professors were not accessible, and TAs were often not that helpful. But, I never felt like I didn't have the resources I needed. I just lacked enough time.

I did feel like i would have been able to _learn_ better from a smaller school with fewer students, and teachers hired for teaching instead of research. But I still don't think that would have outweighed the benefit of the MIT community and resources.

Look up monkey raft theory. How did monkeys from Africa get to South America? Also roughly 30 MYA.

the US has been investigating these ideas since early in the cold war. It started as a means of mass destruction (could we silently reduce solar radiation over russia and cause their crops to fail?), but really could be a means to cool down the ocean.

There are tons of other impacts of carbon, but we could reduce the solar energy hitting the ocean with currently technology if we needed to.

Woah, every new discovery really makes Graham Hancock seem a bit less crazy.

476,000 years is a HUGE jump. They called him crazy for thinking that the Egyptians had structures 12,000 years ago.

Having grown up in the northern panhandle, you really have to look at is a tri state area. PA, OH, and WV.

It’s extremely distinct from the rest of WV below the mason dixon line.

The original capital of WV was actually Wheeling, in the northern panhandle, but it was eventually moved south to Charleston because of the disconnect.

In the 19 years I lived there I never heard anyone say anything but “pop” to refer to carbonated soft drinks. It’s also part of my dialect that has stuck around.

I think the most distinctive word used in the region is that shopping carts are referred to as “buggies”. I didn’t even realize that was unusual until I went shopping with friends in college…

I can't imagine why he wouldn't flee. If i was committing ~9 figures worth of fraud, I would have huge stashes of 1oz gold bars buried in countries without extradition like Vietnam and venezuela. He seems like he had no exit plan thought up.

Madoff got 150 years in prison, and i dont see any reason why SBF would get any less.

> The last study I read found that it’s more harmful than cigarette smoke

Link? I've yet to find a study that has isolated cannabis-only smokers. They all typically find that cannabis + tobacco smoke is worse than just tobacco, which isn't all too surprising.
