They won't do it so it's not even worth thinking about.

They just happen to publish a new System of National Accounts (SNA) every time this happens. Last time it was to put more emphasis on R&D.

Ah, definitely not assuming that. It's a tongue in cheek about someones physical attributes is correlatively to a behavior. In this case they assume that their name influences their behavior to look more name-like, and i said that their name makes them write this type of study. Same fallacy. There's definitely some politics in there but that was unknown to me when i wrote the comment.

I really thought this was so obviously a phrenology study and it lacks any rigor that I didn't have to say that.

They really busted out the AI calipers on this one. It's literally looking at skull shapes. I only read the paper and didn't watch the video, but people get the same result when figuring out if face shape is associated with criminal behavior.

I feel like it's the only response when someone does a phrenology study.

This looks like a study someone named Yonat, Moses, Noa, Jacob, and Ruth would write.

I've woken up twice under anesthesia. When I wake up, I'm sort of frantic and they just zap me with more drugs and I pass back out. I honestly don't think it's a big deal and sort of cool I remember a little bit of the process. I'm not like in pain or anything, just awake.

It's more likely they just released the rough percentages and someone natively did the reverse calculation.

I worked in government contracting as my first job out of college and the guy who sat I next to in the cubical worked on curating reports for various gov agencies. They would often come back to him and tell him that they number weren't right and it should be more like 'X'. He would then just change the numbers and send it back because he didn't give a fuck.

Depends on the mouse I guess, which of course they'll try to make as complicated as possible to seem like they're doing something hard. There's really no difference between a mouse and a keyboard from a HID perspective. The DPI setting generally only change how the mouse movements are interpreted inside the mouse, rather than fundamentally change how it's reported over the wire.

I thought if we made workers poorer then it'd force a more competitive environment! How did this basic core macro-economic principle of neo-liberal economics fail us?!

I can bring two magnets close to each other and feel their fields interact so I know fields are real. Why not more fields, idk. What holds atoms together? Fuck if I should know, probably more magic fields. In the point of view of a photon, it travels instantaneously to its destination? That seems fake.
