Another bot plot showing something that could have been stopped in the first column.

You can't really tell because you don't know what data is the driver. They've agglomerated the balance sheets of five central banks in to one and you don't know what the percentages mean or what's driving them, neither do you know what's driving the bitcoin price, which could be completely different.

Again you could have stopped after the first column. Can we stop making these please?

A lot of people get paid by paper checks still, esp manual laborers. They're going to need to get groceries and pay the rent. They can't really wait several days for their pay to show up in their accounts

There's a fair chance that you're right that I haven't.

Even the most ardent libertarians recognize the need for the courts and strong financial laws and systems and the means of contract enforcement.

Also, people physically leaving a place does not mean they are no longer working their job located in that place.

If it's not good for high performance computing, I can't use it. Well, I might use it to do *some* things but not the main compute part that takes up the vast majority of the wall time.

It's pretty, if not particularly illuminating. I think too few people take this description of the subreddit to heart

"pretty pictures are not the sole aim of this subreddit"

I often judge a science article in the journals by how easily I can discern the conclusions just from looking at the figures. Honestly, I'd fail to figure that out in this case.

It's like they're obsessed with plotting data and generating statistics but not in analyzing data or saying if their statistics rule out some kind of causation or hypothesis. How is the data 'beautiful' if it doesn't illuminate? Certain it's not because it's aesthetically pleasing. Maybe they're in competition for some sort of 'Spurious Correlations' award?

Dear Zuckerborg, the problem is still you.

When their theories keep getting ruled out by measurements, e.g. gravity wave speeds, etc, then you have to wonder if they're not on the wrong track. Even current modified newtonian gravity theories still require dark matter to match observation.

The people trying to find weirdness in the laws of gravity have been trying since at least the 80s whereas Einstein keeps getting proven right time and again in ever more extreme circumstances.

not really, not if you're honest.

I don 't know why people post things like this up other than for the sake of narcissism.

How about past initial predictions vs outcome?

IBM - nope

Intel - nope

HPE - nope

Maybe but by the time he came down with MD we were all surprised he hadn't already had a heart attack

Too bad my dad didn't know but by that point it was kind of inevitable

And I made a generic comment about companies. Read smarter not...whatever it is you're doing. When was the last time you got to put an executive on a PIP? Never? Yeah, thought so. If you're allowed to 'review' executives it's like 'student government'. It's there to give you the illusion that you have some say in what's going on.

How many major companies have I worked for in 25 years? About 10-12. How many have asked me to review the executives and senior managers? None. There's some 'Evidence Based' information for you.

Nobody ever asks the workers which executives and senior managers are 'low performing'

It'll likely start, but it if the coolant is all frozen solid......

Marjorie Taylor Greene and Matt Gaetz have left the chat.
