  • You still have to raise them to 6 though? And also yeah, binding households together is a significant thing, mostly among nobility. for commoners, that's not such a big topic, as there's no "political alliances" to be made.

  • Epstein, Mossad, and the question we are not allowed to ask but must do

    Jump

  • I've started thinking that it's not so much about blackmail after all, instead it's about connections and relationships.

    Consider this: Epstein clearly had thousands of customers. I don't have any actual number in my head, but clearly it must have been a lot and seemingly everybody knew about it. Like, if you look at how many people are related to all this, it's impossible to think that nobody knew anything. Probably, a very large number of people knew what was going on; but nobody bothered to do anything about this. Why? Because they didn't care. To them, it was just business as usual, everybody's all in on this anyways, those that aren't have no actual power, so who's gonna do anything?

    Like, even if it did get public, i'm pretty sure most of the people involved felt certain enough that nothing bad would happen anyways. Considering there were mostly no consequences till today, they're mostly right, i'd say.

    Instead, they just used the parties and connections as a networking platform, getting to know other influential people and stuff. That's IMHO the bigger reason why mossad is involved in all of this. Not for blackmailing purposes, but to be in the center of a network of connections that gives them a lot of strategic influence in the world.

  • Historically marriage used to be a legal relationship for the purpose of discussing who takes care of the children. Children are really expensive and if it isn't cleared uo who's responsible for them, you end up with a situation where nobody seems responsible for them and the children suffer. To prevent that situation, marriage was introduced.

  • What happens if our mathematical system is proven to be inconsistent?

    Jump

  • Realistically, that doesn't happen. At least not if we consider mathematics to be the useful kind of mathematics. The stuff that helps you do statistics/finances/engineering. Because that type of mathematics is based on reality and for the mathematics to be inconsistent would mean that reality is inconsistent, and then we have much much bigger problems.

    As for the higher abstract maths (which is closer to philosophy anyways) yeah such things have happened many times and led to revolutionary insights each time. An example is when we started basing everything on set theory (which in medieval times did not really exist). But that's a philosophical question, not one that concerns daily life.

  • Why I gave up electronics club

  • I would even go as far as to say that models are neither right nor wrong, they just are what they are. Like a flower is not right or wrong for blooming a certain way, it just does what it does and does not care about your right and wrong. This is simply because there is no morality outside of human society and therefore no way to establish right or wrong.

    In fact, it is us who are right or wrong when we are using a model. We can use it in meaningful ways or nonsensical ways, it's our choice. That's why it's us who are right or wrong.

  • not this again ... wait i wonder, does this apply to coax cables as well?

  • Why I gave up electronics club

    Jump

  • Eh, i've struggled with this for years but eventually found my peace.

    You see, there's two types of electric current: Electrons moving through a wire, and protons moving through water (the second one is also called a pH gradient, it happens e.g. in cell membranes of chloroplasts, fascinating stuff, check it out).

    Basically plants do photosynthesis, which is extremely similar to what solar panels do. They generate an electric current, and in that current, positive charges move, so the "direction of current flow" is the correct one.

    I have come to accept that the current inside living beings is more important than the current in all the machinery, because without life there would be no machinery, so life deserves to get the "correct" current.

  • short-term profit i guess. tech companies get unlimited ability to fuck over society's minds, trump gets some propaganda or sth, idk.

  • The world is trying to log off U.S. tech

    Jump

  • to be honest, it might have a significant impact. the US tech today serves a global market, but if that market gets reduced to just the US, that is probably a significant cut.

  • Unironically a good thing. Prostitution is one of the most abusive businesses out there, at least in the western world. Idk about japan.

  • jellyfish go to hell

    Jump

  • Yes i am sure. If the pressure is equal on all sides (i.e. inside and out), you don't need a skeleton. Consider how a thin foil of plastics (or a jellyfish) in deep sea does not get ripped apart.
