Reform leading the charge backwards into obscurity.

And some potatoes

Is this really the story Americans tell each other? I thought they loved foreign adventures. That would explain the 800 military bases they have dotted around the world. Do us all a favour, pack them up and take them back to your shithole country.

And then we all clapped

‘Shithole country’

Thanks Obomber

That’s an interesting origin story. I suspect these ideas came about and came to possess a utility as larger societies formed. Nobody needs to be told that murder and stealing are wrong, we know it instinctively. It has been shown that primates understand this concept generally.

One problem with large societies is that customs becomes entrenched over time. We keep following the same rules and forget where they came from, we mistake the menu for the food. We cannot turn to a naturalistic solution to this problem, where everything is eating everything else because that amounts to fascism. Instead we must settle for a kludge where rich people get a different type of justice than do the poor, sentencing is more punitive before lunch and many other idiosyncrasies. My point is, I don’t want to forget that a menu is just a menu. Some things will always be true and the law is not one of those things.

That’s generally true for most HVAC applications. Bang-bang control creates limit cycle behaviour and as long as a small oscillation in temperature is acceptable, it’s a nice simple solution.

OPs problem seems to be a discontinuity between the two limit cycles, heating and cooling. The way to tackle this is to make time series vectors of all measurements and compare them with the subjective sensation of the room temperature. That should inform the relevant set points for the control actions.

Why do people talk about law as if it has any sort of substance? If all the books were burnt we would only be able to faithfully reproduce the science books, everything else is just some stuff we made up.

Control theory is a bitch

I can understand this sort of thing among the elderly but I’ve met ablebodied engineers who don’t understand how to computer. The awesome thing is that they don’t take advice, they just Dunning Kruger their way through.

They need to keep gamers, women, healthcare users and people without an innate sense of justice out of that jury to secure conviction.

Like the guys at the Nuremberg trials. Turns out ‘just following orders’ was not a creditable defence.

We need sunlight on our skin to generate vitamin D. If you don’t get enough vitamin D you will feel like shit. Not to mention the insiduous psychological effects.

In short, more and bigger windows are the way forward. Go outside in the wilderness, it feels good.

There’s a lot of musicians who are huge in Europe, but not in the US

Is that true?

How strong is your cabbage game?

We saw it and thought ‘we should invent a process that prevents us from falling prey to the naturalistic fallacy’.

It’s an aspirational brand that is the result of a carefully curated public image. Tesla are notable for their litigation propensity, dubious technical claims and avoidance of benchmarking, e.g., JD Power.

How is this even a question? If you believe someone is good and they decided to do something against the law but for good reasons, are you going to punish that person? We know rules are important in society and we all aspire to be good citizens but sometimes we find ourselves in situations where we have to abandon our principles or break the law. Nobody is obeying the speed limit when carrying a dying child to hospital and nobody is condemning that person for breaking the law, to give a completely fatuous example.

The reason jurys convict ethically sound defendants is the same reason people fail to make the ethically sound choice in the Milgram experiment.

It doesn’t matter what the legal statutes say, you still have to think for yourself and others to make compassionate choices.

These trade moves have the same implicit assumption. That US trading partners can’t buy the same thing elsewhere for a cheaper price. Feels like this is a problem that solves itself.
