  1. Compared to all the other useless endeavors we send our brightest minds to work on (optimizing ad sales, high frequency trading, crypto) I'd say physics research has the highest chance of being useful
  2. how about they try to make their cars profitably first....
  3. America has much more lawyers per capital than almost all European countries
  4. Such a boring color. Sad :(
  5. Probably some function of your location to data centers. I find hbo max to be aysmal these days. But I've learned to just stop caring about this stuff since no one else in my life does
  6. It'll be around until they realize it makes 0$, and costs them millions per year in salaries/stock. then it will quietly die
  7. I'm confident a surgeon in America is paid more than 100$ for a surgery. They are paid about 400k a year on average. Do the math yourself.

    On the other hand you provided no details as to where the money actually goes. It's not a simple proble, and part of the problem is that our doctors are paid a lot more than in peer nations

  8. Iowa city doesn't even run buses on the weekends/holidays. I really don't think this should be a model for real urban centers
  9. most aftermarket tints are too dark and dont allow pedestrians to see into the car to see if they going to be hit by the driver. its illegal in most places but cops dont do anything about it.
  10. I find most people can't accurately sort the two though. They perceive what others do as within their control and it drives them mad
  11. Idk man look around america rn. People in my neighborhood are getting dragged into unmarked vans off the street
  12. a 4% drop, back to levels not seen since checks watch 2 weeks ago! not much of a correction imo
  13. oh yeah, children famously do what their parents are told. especially when it comes to interacting with their friends. and they never are more adept at understanding technology and circumventing parental controls.
  14. Condoms? Drugs? Food? Coffee? What other thing do you have in mind
  15. The good thing about partiful (the most popular and imo best party app) is that you can set the invite up such that they cant see the guest list unless they RSVP yes
  16. The fear is attackers are recording conversations today in the hopes that they can crack the encryption when we do have quantum computers in a few years
  17. No the agreed upon keys are symmetric encryption keys with like an AES cipher and we don't have any reason to believe the current encryption there is easier to calculate with a quantum computer
  18. Short form algorithmically curated content is an order magnitude more addictive than long form videos from creators you intentionally click subscribe to
  19. Kratom is banned in Canada. We should at a minimum place it on the schedule list and have it only be prescribed. It's sad that these days all we can think to do with drugs is have them fully commercially legal or completely banned.
  20. Because it's an extra header. Making data transfer that much less efficient and working to make sure that clients can decide it properly
