I've noticed that a large portion of street litter seems to be energy drink containers. When I left an old sofa out for the garbage man to pick up, some people came by in the middle of the night and threw the cushions all over the alley and left a bunch of energy drink cans lying around. I have a hunch this is all related. Can't quite explain why. Maybe people who like that stuff are constantly looking for stimulation, and littering provides that because it's a little bit naughty.
I don't see why knowing the "len" function is so important. Does remembering it off the top of your head allow you to do something that looking it up doesn't? Some people just don't fill their heads with useless trivia.
An assumption of one universe might happen to match the human limitations of observing universes, but it also arbitrarily assumes there's some condition that limits the number of universes. Since we have never discovered such a condition, shouldn't someone using empirical evidence as their standard therefore assume that there is no limit?
Not a lawyer, but I believe a court would consider that "self defense". The principle is sometimes extended to include defending others. Although I'm sure it would be very unusual to have a situation where self defense required killing an innocent. Pretty sure it would apply to torturing the terrorist though. IMO that's why legalizing torture isn't necessary. There's already implicit exceptions to the law that apply in various "Jack Bauer" scenarios. There's also something the courts call "criminal intent". You can't accidentally commit a crime. Don't believe you can be coerced into committing a crime either.
Now we're not just sexist pigs, but we are also in an unstable industry and women will avoid us like the plague.
Actually I don't find this stuff as insulting as the "anyone can code" meme. Maybe we should all wear suits so that people take us seriously, like lawyers. Actually, that might be the real reason women don't get involved. Their parents don't take the profession seriously, so they steer their smart daughters away from it.
There's only costs involved if you assume there's a still a free market economy. If the free market is replaced by government managed robots providing for everyone's needs, then there's truly zero costs. Robots would collect all resources from publicly owned land, and provide all goods and resources. Why is any exchange of money required? Obviously, I'm assuming the robots would be amazingly capable, but that's the scenario we're discussing here. One where robots have taken over all human labor.
The whole point (ultimately) of robots is that they do things for free. I mean totally free (ultimately). If they can collect energy, dig raw materials out of the ground, and build things themselves, then there's no costs involved.
Probably something like "as you wait for confirmation that the service has been terminated, continue your attempts to save the customer". With no consideration given to the fact that it takes 8 fucking minutes.
Just doing some searching on Google it seems the lift/drag ratio for a wing-in-ground-effect vehicle is about 10:1. A typical load/rolling resistance ratio for a tire appears to be about 100:1. So I don't see how the lift can be generated anywhere near efficiently enough it to improve overall efficiency. Unless my numbers are all wrong or they have something way more efficient than a wing-in-ground-effect.
