Anti-Piracy wont save any industry which falls for revenue into the panem and circensis category. Your products price-points are capped by a political consesus to keep the population peacefull.


sickle cell anemia?


If i remember, the distribution in men is greater. (https://www.aei.org/carpe-diem/chart-of-the-day-scottish-iq-...)

Also the expression of neuro-diversity is usually more severe (do not have a linke for that one).

While we are at it, can we talk about the loop deformation, too?

Aka, evolution as a blind machinery, adapting humanity to the cycle of strife, by allowing neuro-diverse speacilizations to exist, which in turn try to propagate the circumstances they thrive in.

Thanks to science, we had a nice 90 years of surplus and plenty, basically bribing ourselves out of natures grasp. Now the whole messy affair returns with a vengance, and it will be interesting to see, if leviathan-cybernetics ( aka societal implants (cellphones, self-surveilance etc.)) can reign the forces of the old world in, were wishfull thinking and society regulation mechanisms (religions, rules, etc.)fail.


What is “loop deformation”? Are you referring to a parent comment that has been deleted/flagged? Curious to know..


I wondered, have any others been expected, to reverse the interview direction? As in ask the company manangment, sales and tech ceos, to answer your test scenarios?

"You have developed a new product with broad market appeal, and sales already found you a huge first customer, which would secure you for years to come. In return they expect you to tailor the product to there needs. How do you react?"

It sounds mad, but it seems somehow to be expected by some. Like they expect you to test your company for warning flags as thoroughly as they test you..


What good are strict bans, if they are subverted and ignored on a regular basis? China already had a wild animal trade ban after SARS and yet, here we are. The only thing that can solve this, is actual medical education, eradicating this witchcraft traditional medicine...


I heard they lifted the ban after a year - is that incorrect?


Yes they lifted the ban.


We Pulse-Wide-Modulate a case rate that is just soo below what the strained public health system can take, prioritize the most important economic systems slowly back to life and hope that the vaccazines come just in time to end this nightmare.

After that reforms. Lots of them.


Fortunately, as time goes on we'll improve our ICU capacity and it's likely that some anti-viral treatments will turn out to be effective, which should diminish the ICU load.

We could within half a year-- given massive impact from deaths and shutdowns encouraging bypassing some amount of protocol-- have clonal antibody treatments that prevent hospitalization in a large portion of infections.


> as time goes on we'll improve our ICU capacity

This seems unlikely. On what timescale do you think this will happen?


Prioritize ‘the most important economic systems’ is very subjective, unfortunately.

Who decides the ‘winners’, as grotesque as that sounds?


I don't know, maybe the bits that keep the population fed and the lights on. That seems a start.


Ok, so restaurant supply companies, like Sysco, or the Krogers, Publix, etc.?

Linemen for powerline infrastructure, HVAC and telecom techs to maintain the cell towers?

Truck drivers to deliver chemicals needed for both water and waste-water treatment? Also, transporting the sludge afterwards?

Garbage pickup?

Doctors,nurses, police, firefighters, 911 dispatchers?

What am I not thinking of?


Thats why you can combine them with relational operators. And then find sets of those combinables that can produce the desired output for most of the time.

That is ones library. It can be adapted to the task.


Yeah, Conways compression- any dataset can be encoded into a deterministic game, where upon to restore it is a easy adjustable tradeoff of computation, stored presets and relational operations.

So, the bonus point is to find subsets of relationally related games, that can become the parent.


UV-Light sterilizes alot of the virus if not in a huge droplet..


? Dirty money is welcome anywhere. The whole overpriced apartment ghost towns that spread in most popular american cities are basically storage for dirty money.


Yes, I would like to see a more specific breakdown of what crimes Dubai will protect specifically and what crimes the US will and what crimes the EU does.

I would not be surprised to hear there is some qualitative difference, but I think it should be explained before we accept either “Dubai is dirtier” or “everywhere is equally dirty” premise.
