Dude, we evolved on different continents for 50,000 years. We look different. Our bodies' biochemistry differs (different medications for whites + blacks for blood pressure). Why do you think brains came out the same? They didn't, and all the hard data, and all the evidence of everyone's eyes - how black vs white, or other populations, live, shows that. It's ugly, it's not nice, people don't know what to do about it, it's a can of worms, but it's true.


I'd encourage you to read reputable research on this more. Especially ones on intelligence between races if that's where your mind is going. At one point I thought I also had some "facts" about this that were founded in science, but after more careful reading recently in my life I realized the "science" I had vaguely remembered around this was actually racist, unscientific garbage.


Dunno - most science studies seem to suggest culture rather than genetics.


One interesting data point for example - African Americans in general earn less that whites but Nigerian Americans earn more. Probably because they have selected the highly educated ones rather than genetics.

Take the Hitler / Darwin pill: as long as there are separate entities and limited resources, they will be in conflict. Accept it, it's a part of nature. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wjMmeNS9wA&t=2m53s


This video puts a lot of it together: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0_Of0WGkEs

He starts with science and reaches into speculation, but, there's real, interesting science in it.


I see it as a little of science mixed with a lot of speculation, and good amount of crackpotoplogy.

The part where he tries to show that the old map of Herodotus (c. 484BC – c. 425BC) is somewhat similar to the map of rivers and basins, but they don't even look similar. (Also note that the dates discussed in this articles are about 5000 years ago, something like 2500 years before Herodotus.)

And I prefer to ignore the last part about the Atlantis ...

Unironically, the origin of the word 'boss'.


Right - it should be harder to get money for less-productive specialty degrees in the humanities. Creditors would have to decide whether to risk their money, and become gatekeepers.


Can't read the specs, but loverpi.com has up-powered versions - notably, with up to 4GB memory.


This only has 512MB it seems, which is odd because the other models have 1GB.

I didn't know stores sold Pi competitors with 4GB RAM. Do you know of any with pcie and 4+GB RAM? I'd love to have a board with enough SATA and RAM for a decent ZFS setup, and I think I can get a pcie expansion board with SATA to work.


The ROCKPro64 comes to mind. https://www.pine64.org/?page_id=61454


In English there's 'silence is golden', but, lacks the 'silver' part.



Somewhere poor, where labor is cheap and people are still susceptible to bribes?


Rather not, China's economic rise started in Jiang's era was both due to it being cheap, AND due to Jiang's era officials being more competent and business friendly than those of an average bantustan (really sorry having to use the term)


clang modernize? It'll do the small-scale fixes for you. But, though this was a while ago, it messed up the text when I used it. You could tell what it was /supposed/ to be, though, and wouldn't compile. But it may be better, now.


So this is not the denouement, he's still on hiatus, the situation is not resolved. It's a real shame that Linus thinks that mouthing off at people is the same as being a Nazi. I feel sure his daughter had something to do with it.
