Does someone have the ability to put this into an AI image to video generator with 2 prompts, one for cheesecake and one for ship? Then we can reverse one, stitch the videos together and get a cake turning into a cruise liner.

How many BTUs are there in a big mac?

The biggest argument for metric is that it’s consistent. It takes 1 calories to heat 1k of water by 1 degree. State something similar in imperial units.

Not a good policy for police to choose what laws to enforce.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK Cops 'Ashamed and Sick' of Enforcing Ban on Anti-Genocide Group Palestine Action⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
It is a fine principle to uphold the law. In this particular case it is the law that’s an ass, not the enforcement.

Alternatively, be amazed at how much we’ve tamed.

Are sharks the best example?

Nah. I’ve seen those Flintstone documentaries. They had all the consumer mod cons.

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨All while the skeletal, crumbling, dusty bones of an econ major pulls business backwards into hell.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
To be fair, there are some good retrospective economists. “A happened because of X, Y and Z.”

But an economist that predicts the future is always wrong, often spectacularly.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨LPT: Go get a shot, now.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Jay Bhattacharya, said here that I don’t think anyone disputes that it increases the rate of myocarditis, especially in young men..

Likely he is referring to this study that:-

The risk of myocarditis after vaccination is higher in younger men, particularly after a second dose of the mRNA-1273 vaccine

But this statement does not mean the vaccine is net more harmful. The fact you came away with that impression just shows how easy it is to misrepresent facts.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨LPT: Go get a shot, now.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
This is the Danish opinion

The purpose of vaccination is not to prevent infection with covid-19, and people aged under 50 are therefore currently not being offered booster vaccination. People aged under 50 are generally not at particularly higher risk of becoming severely ill from covid-19. In addition, younger people aged under 50 are well protected against becoming severely ill from covid-19, as a very large number of them have already been vaccinated and have previously been infected with covid-19, and there is consequently good immunity among this part of the population

Economists can do real good for the world

If you put 10 economists in a room, you’ll get 11 opinions.

For specific use cases, yes.

Yes, Bitcoin uses the electricity of Belgium.

No, Ethereum uses the electricity of a single wind turbine.

Modern blockchains are much less resource intensive.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Please bro⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
write access is algorithmic, not centrally controlled.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Please bro⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

Blockchain is just an incredibly inefficient distributed database.

Agreed. Most of the time a traditional database is far cheaper and better performing.

The key innovation of blockchain is that write access is algorithmic, not centrally controlled. This feature is not possible with any other technology.
