What? I never said that. I was explaining gender affirming care. It's not a trans exclusive thing necessarily.

It's literally something that helps maintain a physical aspect associated with a person's gender. Granted, hairloss can happen to anybody, but baldness is highly predominant towards the male population.

But the interview process is a mockery.

You're not necessarily wrong but maybe a bit naive about what cutting edge research entails.

Ok. I'm fine agreeing to disagree.

Because who cares? There are any number of mathematicians out there, why put so much value on one "thought leader"? I just find HNs obsession with knowing what one particular person thinks odd. It's a consistent reoccurrence.

I guess if that's how you feel about it, more power to you. The day I get away from almost all tech will be a good day. Also I get that TSA sucks but I don't think they deserve the vitriol you're throwing.

This is such a brain dead solution to a problem that shouldn't exist. Why push for digitization?

Why does it matter what Terrance Tao thinks? Genuinely I find this obsession with what some specific math researcher thinks about x topic bizarre.

What do you think of it?

> It’s one thing to be upset and angry about capitalism and businesses.

Right, we should all continue grumbling about it for the rest of our lives as law and government intended. Nothing will change and the meat grinder will continue churning. Imo, this line of thinking of "they're angry and upset in a way that upsets me!" is easily exploitable towards complete inaction.

Also I'm so sorry but having sympathy for effective oligarchs? Come on. Wishing their death might be a bridge too far but at best these people deserve ambivalence, not pity.

It's never an easy thing to do or one that should come to fruition, but yes, I would contribute to the effort for my country if it was so.

No, it's not. But at least they have some relative, albeit flawed, context. It's the difference of having heard of something vs not.

Its broken with alias but what's this about the podman-socket? Do you know where I can take a look at that?

You would be surprised how many people have no idea what "machine learning" means (not even technical definition but just as in the field). I'm working on a PhD in an adjacent field and basically have to tell people I work in AI for them to have any semblance of what I do.
