no no no, its not a critique specifically of you. Native english speakers do this all the time. And I’m sure its inevitable that “comparatively” will make that transition too.

I’m interested: is there a german word to replace "vergleichsweise " to more explicitly mean “comparison”?

True, true…

Aside: Back in my day, we could use the term “relatively” to mean “in relation to” some other thing. Over time it became “in relation to the average thing” instead of a specific thing. Now it just means “a little bit”/“sort of”. Now people use “comparatively” to convey what “relatively” used to mean. Except… you just now seem to be making that same “relatively” transition with the word “comparatively”. I just find language interesting, and wonder what the next “relatively” will be once that meaning has been lost even to “comparatively”.

There are 2 types of people, the 2/3 year people, and the 20-life people. 10 is a lot to the 2/3 year people… but not to the others

Ok, thanks for the tip.

Idk, I watch a lot, a variety too. I thumbs content, mark not interested. And my recommendations are an absurd over representation of the last 3 or so topics I’ve recently viewed mixed with a small selection of my subscriptions it’s decided I want to watch.

So you’ve used TS and wouldn’t opt to kill it?!

Tbh I’ve only used JS and don’t know how different JS and TS are outside the typing.

Anything more than like 2.5mg seems to put me in a dysfunctional state where my short term memory is just… idk how to describe it other than completely and utterly fucked.

Idk if it’s just my genes, or ADHD or both, but my wife can tank edibles even as the petite little thing she is.

Java is the new cobol, all the enterprises love it.

One of the reasons for not disclosing content recommendation algorithms is to combat spam or generally exploitation of the algo.

You’d be exclusively recommended content from whoever is trying the hardest to game the algorithms, and not however the algo was actually intended to work.

That’s fucking awesome.

Also, it’s crazy that UPS could afford all those changes, and they’ve just been pocketing all that value.

Of the 2 compatible explanations, I really like the many worlds theory over hidden variables. Many worlds explains this unexplainable randomness, the probabilistic nature of subatomic particle movements, by saying all possible movements happen…. The probabilities just indicate the likelihood that our reality is the one that movement X happens in.

I like Sabine Hossenfelders way of explaining things, she disregards god altogether. It’s not necessary for these explanations.

I saw some other scientists basically throwing a hissy fit about determinism, and how they wouldn’t get credit for being so smart and making the discoveries and stuff if determinism was true. Like obviously I’m so smart, I’m making hypotheses so I’ve got free will.

It was utterly embarrassing, I was looking for a legit counter view to see what the other side said. And the first two videos I found were PhDs throwing tantrums on podcasts.

But to those that believe in a god generally, sure, with our current knowledge anything is a possibility… just some theories have more standing than others… but some also are nicer to believe in, and just make sense for a being to want to believe.

And then you throw the block universe in, and it’s just all the more beautiful.

All possible combinations of atomic interactions all happen. Well “happen” is so linear time thinking, they all just exist.

Uh… ok.

Wife says this is a fun fact.

Well, if true, it doesn’t make any difference. Because it always was and always will be. Nothing makes any difference.

But in another way, it’s kinda neat. I guess it’s simultaneously a not fun fact, and a fun fact.

There are physicist, respected ones, that believe the universe is deterministic. That we don’t have free will.

And psychologists that believe that feeling of consciousness is a result of the brain developing a self-supervising function for higher order thinking.

Essentially free will is just an illusion.
