Multi monitor has never been more reliable for me than it is on Linux. The downside is that it’s not automated and I need to connect/disconnect them through the terminal.

If that’s what you meant to say, then it would help to actually say that. Regardless, the argument doesn’t hold water. If Teams has poor support for older hardware and non-Windows operating systems when other apps don’t, then that’s a Teams problem. If it takes someone who specializes in Teams to be able to work with it effectively when other apps require minimal training, then that’s also a Teams problem.

So when you say “I believe in objective morality”, you mean that you believe morality should be objective, not that it is objective. I’m inclined to agree because that would certainly simplify life a lot, but unfortunately, you can’t just make morality objective any more than you can make gravity not exist. It is what it is, and we have to figure out a way to work with what we have.

Thanks, that’s good to know. I’ve been experiencing this too and I know T1 diabetes runs in the family, but I ruled it out because I thought it wasn’t a symptom of diabetes. I should check with a doctor.

So morality is relative in a society that doesn’t have a proper moral framework?

I think you missed the “indirect” part. This isn’t someone going around stabbing people. It’s someone who goes obstructing people from getting medication or medical treatment that they need, or from acquiring food, or someone who indiscriminately gets people fired from their jobs and put on the streets where they’ll die a slow death.

Regarding solitary confinement: As an individual, you don’t have the power to detain someone in that manner. But you do have the power to kill.

As far as I’m aware, diabetes will lead to hyperglycemia, not hypo. Taking insulin for diabetes in excess of what’s needed or not eating enough while on insulin will lead to hypoglycemia.

Any honest conversation about a situation will end up with two people, happily or not, having to admit there’s one path more moral than others

You don’t say that they agree on which path is more moral than the other, but I’m assuming that’s what you mean. But also, no, that doesn’t happen. In an honest conversation where you disagree on morals, you just learn that you both have different values.

There are some things that more people are likely to agree on, like your example about stealing a towel from a hotel. But there are also many that people vehemently disagree on. For example, is it morally right to kill someone who has (and will continue to) indirectly kill many of other people?

go into any business in Canada or the US with more than 200 employees

That’s like, 2% of businesses in Canada. Even if they all use Windows, it doesn’t prove the point that few businesses use MacOS.

Yesterday’s anti-ICE protests in Minnesota

Might be a Boost bug, but the link doesn’t include anything past the hyphen.

Perhaps the U.S. could be named after gold

I see nothing in my library that can be abbreviated to MK1.

I dream of a world where people can follow their passion without having to worry about where their next meal will come from.

What you want is a distribution-aware contextual binary search. With whatever information you have (appearance, personality, vocabulary, etc), you can come up with a probability distribution in the space of possible ages and start your guess with the value at the 50th percentile. Then depending on whether the true age is higher or lower, your next guess will be either the 25th or 75th percentile. Rinse and repeat.

In reality, the way most people intuitively do agree guessing is already an approximation of this procedure.

You can also tell me that someone out there won the lottery this week and have it be true. It’s not the same as seeing this person’s live reaction to learning about it. It wouldn’t be the same if you watched that person act out the scene exactly as it happened. AI generated is so much further removed from all that.

The info provided is that there exists another happy dog out there doing happy dog things and I briefly connected with it, which made me happy. This information would be incorrect if it was AI generated.

So what you’re saying is that Andrew Yang should run again.

Part of the reason Amazon works well is because they sell high volumes of each product, allowing them to distribute products ahead of time across warehouses to match expected demand. You can’t do that if you only have exactly one of each item.

In a socialist country, I would guess that there’s much less incentive to pump out slop. So if you make videos with AI, it’s more likely that you’ve actually put some thought into it and are making something of actual value to someone.
