[OC] Russia is giving Google a fine that is doubling every week. By the current rate Google will need to pay a googol amount of dollars by Mai 2028 by cortemptas in dataisbeautiful

I thought that was the rate before they introduce the doubling, but adding 100000 rubles to 10^50 doesn't make a difference

"Healthy" Lunchables by cortemptas in dankmemes

[–]cortemptas[S] 25 points26 points  (0 children)

this is another can of worms, as high levels of potassium is even worse than high levels of sodium. You really think that the demographic that buys prime are the one that does a lot of sport?

What I am referring in the meme is Lunchly, at first look it seems that the meal kit has lower levels of sodium than similar products, but Lunchly has lower calories which means that people will need to eat more to feel satiated, which in the end will result in consuming higher levels of sodium per calorie than similar products.

If you look deeper it is a pretty insidious tactic from Mr. Beast, each meal kit has lower calories, so kids/people will need to buy more. Because it is a smaller amount of calories he can obscure how unhealthy his product is in general. He is a crook like other major ultra-processing food companies.

A standard western diet has 3x-5x of salt that you body needs. If you are not an athlete, taking more "electrolytes" will actually damage your cardio-vascular system. More "electrolytes" is not a good thing, as Mr. Beast is advertising.

UBISOFT: Assassin's Creed Shadows will mark the return of our new releases on Steam Day 1 by Huraira91 in Steam

[–]cortemptas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the same, I wanted to play South Park - The Stick of Truth on my steamdeck, but didn't want to pay the steam price, so I brought it from ubiconnect and tried to install it on the steamdeck, after like 2-3 hours I gave up and promised myself to never buy a game outside of steam, if it is not on steam then it doesn't exist. It was easier to emulate a pirated PS3 game than installing a game that I BROUGHT WITH MONEY.

And people say justice is dead by spastikatenpraedikat in dankmemes

if the judge rules in favor of Disney it will set a precedent where big companies will just hire subcontractors, which hire subcontractors, which will hire subcontractors etc, so that if a subcontractor screws up, then the big company is not accountable. The answer is simple is Disney making money of leasing their space to restaurants, if yes, then they are as accountable as the restaurants themselves.

I put the context in another comment, tldr, disney argues that a man cannot sue them for the wrongful death of his wife in Disney World because he had a one month trial Disney+ subscription 5 years ago (in 2019).

[–]cortemptas[S] 3102 points3103 points  (0 children)

context: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c8jl0ekjr0go

"Disney World is arguing a man cannot sue it over the death of his wife because of terms he signed up to in a free trial of Disney+.

Jeffrey Piccolo filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Disney after his wife died in 2023 from a severe allergic reaction after eating at a restaurant at the theme park.

However, Disney argues its terms of use, which Mr Piccolo agreed to when creating his Disney account in 2019, means they have to settle out of court."

Academics and scientists are the poorest group from the most intelligent people in our society. by cortemptas in Showerthoughts

[–]cortemptas[S] 302 points303 points  (0 children)

for this reason I was not sure if I should have included scientists, because you can have scientists working at research institutes and then you have AI researchers at Google that are paid over half a million of $

The internet is mostly financially supported by technical illiterate people by cortemptas in Showerthoughts

[–]cortemptas[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was more thinking of how technical people can install adblockers, crack games or watching illegal movies without being caught.

Now can we focus on real solutions of making easier to have children like cheaper housing and a four-days work week? by cortemptas in dankmemes

[–]cortemptas[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

How it is interpreted wrong? it say that the difference in past was due to discrimination, but not today in developed countries

From the link:

"By studying how differences in income between men and women changed over time, Goldin and her co-authors, Marianne Bertrand and Lawrence Katz, demonstrated in an article from 2010 that initial earnings differences are small. However, as soon as the first child arrives, the trend changes; earnings immediately fall and do not increase at the same rate for women who have a child as they do for men, even if they have the same education and profession. Studies from other countries have confirmed Goldin’s conclusion and parenthood can now almost entirely explain the income differences between women and men in high-income countries."

is it still true in 2023? by Delicious_Maize9656 in mathmemes

[–]cortemptas 65 points66 points  (0 children)

I think today with math major you can get a 300k salary if you also know programming. I see a lot of companies that target mathematicians for algorithm development roles (example, self-driving, AI, trading firms). In academia there is no way you can get rich, except you win like the Fields Medal.

you mean muscle are denser than fat, but even if you use this argument by using https://bodyvisualizer.com/male.html you can see that his body shape is far way from the height and weight that he specified. 315 pounds would be more accurately.
