- Comment on What is the difference between an American liberal and a liberal outside the USA? 2 weeks ago:
Not entirely no. " British liberalism is now organised between two schools;
- the social liberalism of the Liberal Democrats (member LI, ALDE) and their counterpart the Alliance Party of Northern Ireland (member LI, ALDE),
- and the classical liberalism of the Conservative Party which was adopted in the late 1970s by the late former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher " - en.wikipedia.org/…/Liberalism_in_the_United_Kingd…
Neoliberalism is a more contemporary version of classical liberalism
- Comment on What is the difference between an American liberal and a liberal outside the USA? 2 weeks ago:
Liberalism in America refers to social liberalism. IE: justice, government management of social services(health, education, welfare, infrastructure). In this scenario, the government looking after its citizens.
Liberalism in the rest of the world refers to Neoliberalism. IE: capitalism on a pedestal, privatization of public services, limited government intervention in all areas(business, labour, environment, health, education). In this scenario, private business and “the free market” determine what is and isn’t good(IE profit is the greatest good).

I’m curious about the durability of these PCBs. They would be good for prototyping but how well would they handle high humidity environments?

- Comment on How does AI use so much power? 6 months ago:
My understanding is that traditional AI essentially takes a bruteforce approach to learning and because it is hardwired, its ability to learn and make logical connections is impaired.
Newer technologies like organic computers using neurons can change and adapt as it learns, forming new pathways for information to travel along, which reduces processing requirements and in turn, reduces power requirements.

Don’t even have to go that far, just change your DNS to a non-Australian one. Anything that turns up from a “top 10 dns providers” search works.
- Comment on How do our brains process reality? I heard our eyes were just low-res cameras and our brains were doing all the heavy lifting in 'rendering' reality. 1 year ago:
I’m red-green colourblind(Deuteranopia) and often think this exact thing, how the reality I perceive is different from others purely due to this.
