Degrowth is a dangerous ideology. For those living in rich countries, degrowth might just mean austerity, for those living in middle and lower income countries, degrowth is going to mean destitution and certain death for x percentage of the population.
So essentially I want to buy one pan, I don’t want to care about what utensils I use in it (metal, plastic, or wood), or what I cook in it, and I want to clean it easily by just putting some soap on it, using the rough side of a sponge and drying it off and tossing it back in the cupboard....
I find cast iron to be a bit heavy for everyday use, carbon steel gets you most of the benefits while giving you more flexibility on the weight.
The only thing I use my non stick for is omelette dishes mostly because it’s much easier to fold French omelet when you can lift the pan easily with 1 hand.
You can certainly cook eggs in a well-seasoned cast iron. I just like to do french omelets which requires you to stir things before it sets, which is a bit more difficult on seasoned cast iron or carbon steel vs just a plane non-stick.
Both of my carbon steel and cast irons are larger 12 inch pans, so they are both a decent weight.
Researchers have found that the enzyme polyphenol oxidase (PPO) in certain fruits like bananas can reduce the absorption of heart-healthy flavanols, especially when combined with flavanol-rich ingredients like berries. The study suggests choosing ingredients with low PPO activity, such as pineapple or oranges, when making...
“Our primary conclusion across all scenarios is that without enough fresh real data in each generation of an autophagous loop, future generative models are doomed to have their quality (precision) or diversity (recall) progressively decrease,” they added. “We term this condition Model Autophagy Disorder (MAD).”...
You can also copyright the original character and make AI generate all the motions of that character. Since the originals was (human) created and copyrighted, it doesn’t matter that AI created art derived from that character isn’t copyrightable in of itself.
Plus there is also trademarks for character likeness.
All in all, I agree with you, this is a non issue for Hollywood studios.
To be fair CDC recommends 7 days after onset of symptoms.
At least 7 days have passed since symptoms first appeared if a negative viral test* is obtained within 48 hours prior to returning to work (or 10 days if testing is not performed or if a positive test at day 5-7)

I’m not convinced by any mass society that is altruistic, but it’s very simple to see that the natural state of human small groups is quite communal.
What mother has a ledger for the child’s share of food?
We have an entire feeling brain that’s dedicated to relationship building that’s very much the core of most small group relationships.
I’m also very convinced that this model does not work past Dunbar’s Number (~100-150 individuals), and most attempts at building communal society outside of that without some cohersion and some better way of organizing incentives is not possible.
Applications for unemployment benefits fell again last week as America’s labor market continues to hum along despite attempts by the Federal Reserve to cool the economy and bring down inflation that’s still higher than optimal
People are still hiring, just the bar is no longer absurdly low.
During the pandemic, everyone was hiring like crazy, and people coming out of boot camps were instantly hired even when they didn’t understand algorithms, didn’t understand system design, and didn’t understand engineering principles.
Now, you actually need to have a brain to be hired.
Tech is also not a bubble, because tech is in every single industry now. You might get froth in certain segments of tech (crypto, AI, whatever is the current “hot thing”), the market fundamentals are absurdly good. Operating margins of mature software companies are consistently in the mid 20s to 30s.
I read this wondering if there would be something strange, or an overreaction. There’s nothing like that at all. It’s basically just a law that forces tech companies to respect people and their right to privacy. Most of it is common sense stuff that you think they should do without having to be told....

It's a bit of a long podcast, but it raised some very good points. As an Asian American who went to a elite school, I'm very much torn between the two camps myself. However, I'd be very curious to hear other folks thoughts on this matter, especially on the points raised in this podcast.
