Were you homeschooled before the age of 12?

I wouldn’t be surprised if someone is reviving it, I’ve seen it mentioned a few places recently.

The process you’re describing is called recuperation[1] and I believe your skepticism is well-founded. The effects of these drugs on the human mind and culture is more powerful than any other drug in history. The effects may not be immediate but I believe they will be more dramatic than any other pharmaceutical society has experienced so far.

I never accused you of defending Epstein, I was responding to the second paragraph of your comment.

You seemed to be arguing there that we shouldn’t make negative judgments of those who choose to be friends with others who have committed “extreme wrong” which I assume includes crimes like those committed by Epstein.

That is specifically what I take issue with, and I stand by my assertion that any defense of that position in the context of pedophila constitutes pedophilic apologetics.

The mandate to “love thy neighbor as yourself” does not require Christians to refrain from making negative moral judgements of others based on who they choose to associate with.

I find your apologetics for those who associate with known pedophiles deeply disturbing.

Pedophiles require a network of enablers to operate, much more so for high-profile cases like Epstein. If someone you know chooses to associate with a known pedophile, you should cut all ties with them. If you don’t, then you are potentially complicit in the crime insofar as you could potentially provide assistance to someone who is enabling a known pedophile.

This is why anyone with a functioning moral system will negatively judge associates of known pedophiles. I’m not sure why this needs to be spelled out for you.

I’m not sure if it’s accurate but I’ve heard that 5g (or at least some form of next generation physical infrastructure) will be required for the transition to autonomous vehicles. I think you’re right about media consumption however, I don’t see how most users could justify upgrading to a 5g mobile plan.

The average age of a software startup founder is 40 [1].

How is it a problem for consumers if you can get a cheaper subscription to Spotify by buying it off the App Store?

Yes, if the soldered-on SSD has failed you can boot from an external drive by holding down the alt/option key while the system powers on to bring up the boot selection menu.

Do you mind sharing the name of the out-of-state bootcamp? I've been researching programs to apply to.

The article links to another article discussing Wellcome's policy.

"The policy defines bullying as a misuse of power that can make people feel vulnerable, upset, humiliated, undermined or threatened. It says harassment is unwanted physical, verbal or non-verbal conduct that has the purpose or effect of violating someone else’s dignity, or creating an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive environment for them."

Even if your house ends up being less than you bought it for you still have a house. Assuming you want to live in the same area long term it seems wiser to finish a mortgage and be left with a house that's worth less than you paid for it versus paying rent for the same amount of time and ending up with nothing.

All three of them do! I'm not sure how it slipped my mind. Thankfully, Cunningham's Law [1].

The only Apple device with an OLED screen is the iPhone X; the built-in displays on the 2012-2015 retina MacBook Pros as well as the ones made after the 2016 redesign are IPS with a 60hz refresh rate. There were issues with the graphics on the mid 2012 to early 2013 retina MacBook Pros - perhaps the parent got one of the defective models.

I don't think we will see another Facebook-scale social media service until the shift to AR wearables. However, at that point I think Facebook's disruption will be almost inevitable.

Apple is rumored to be launching an AR product line in 2019.

OpenOffice stopped being supported in 2011. Most distros use LibreOffice.

The article says that there are hashes of known child pornography content on the drive.

I've never heard someone refer to a schizophrenic as "a schizoid". Schizophrenia and schizoid personality disorder are distinct disorders with different symptoms.

Its intetesting how in the last couple years bigot has been redefined from "someone who is not tolerant of the opinions of others" to "anyone who disagrees with leftist moral thought"

They had telegraph systems.

I wouldn't doubt it, Uber comes preinstalled on most android phones.

I think he means electric single driver cars.

This can't happen unless the system makes a lot of assumptions about how to impliment the idea, which will ultimately result a in suboptimal implementation.

I disagree. Programming is the act of interacting with AI (the compiler) in language (code) detailed enough to specify what we want it to build for us. As tasks become abstracted to a single click or line of code, the programmer is free to work at higher levels of abstraction.

Where I live $2 a day will get you a hand of bananas and a couple ears of corn, which doesn't seem like it'd be enough to subsist on. What would your grocery list for a weeks worth of food on a $14 budget look like?

The potential silver lining is that this resuls in FOSS operating systems getting more users, which in turn will mean even better support/stability in FOSS options.

You can play YouTube audio in the background and with the phone locked if you use Firefox.

How would myself or anyone else interested get on the crypto nerd slack?
