“Destruction of OkCupid as an attack against its liberal-skewed user base"

That’s impossible, the keys are not there.

How would you like a conspiracy theory? This community is a bitter honeypot to disrupt the congregation of Euro-federalists with the constant spamming of irrelevant crap. It has successfully disappointed you already, and probably many others.

Why do you think those should be separate? That just destroys the network effect. Original OkCupid used to have everything. Amazon has everything. Facebook has all sorts of shit. They don’t split into niches.

benefit humanity as a whole

The Borg from Star Trek fills that requirement. My headcanon is that the people from its home planet made an AGI with the given goal of “benefiting humanity as a whole”, and it maximised that goal by building the Borg - making humanity as a whole by connecting them to a hive mind and forcibly assimilating all other species to benefit humanity as a whole.

Isn’t that how inheritance works? Everything including the long copyright get inherited immediately.

Full-size cars, yes, but I wish we the people now stopped the fossil-lobbied lawfare against microcars.

Renault Twizy, top speed 80km/h

• Gross weight ~10% of a typical electric car, so probably ~10% tyre dust too.
• For bikeways. If the plastic surface were designed to yield in a crash, a pedestrian could be safer hit by this than by a bare biker on a bare metal bike.
• Takes less space than a biker because a 4-wheeler can be steered more accurately than a naturally unstable bike needing wobble margins.
• Banned in many places through lawfare: https://xfwnofqagsnmdxuf.quora.com/Lawfare-against-tiny-cars-velomobiles

Quora used to have a fantastic crowd-edited question topic ontology/taxonomy for precise feed shaping with thousands of disambiguated topics interlinked in a graph/tree structure, but they enshittified the system away 2023, and now it’s all LLM misunderstandings of what the question topics should be. The bot thinks a question is about apples when the question is a mathematics word puzzle; “How many apples…”. The excuse for AI tagging was “tags can be abused” when in reality the crowd corrected the abuses quickly and reported the offenders. With the new AI tagger, my feed turned from a valuable place for learning into viral trash from Quora-celebrities, mostly about current news.

They never made the obviously needed features of:

• being able to topic tag answers, not just questions (for when the question is general and the answer is specific, like “What do you think everyone needs to know in 2026?”).
• the ability to follow a topic from a user, because most people write about many topics, so a follow-a-user brings uninteresting topics to my feed, but not all people write well about that topic I want to follow, so I’d need to follow that topic from good writers only.

Loading up weight does make the ride smoother because suspension stiffness stays the same, unlike when a heavier car is designed.

The newer sedan was likely designed to tolerate spirited driving. When designing a car, they’re aiming for an appropriate resonant frequency for body up-down bounce, under 1 Hz for good comfort, more for sportier ride. Featherweight Citroën 2CV gives a very soft ride.

Thought experiment: weld two cars together side by side - double weight, double suspension stiffness carrying the weight. Why would there be any difference in vibration when they drive together over a double-wide speed bump?

It’s the same as with dropping objects of different weights (in vacuum) - the feather falls as fast the hammer, because weight and inertia cancel each other out.

Nitpicks:

2 - Inertia doesn’t help. It cancels out because the suspension must be equally stiffer to carry the added weight. There’s a correlation, which is more because bigger cars are more expensive, which have better suspensions and stiffer bodies.

4 - Unsprung mass helps and hurts comfort. It filters out high frequency vibration, forcing the tyre to flex more, but the mass bounces higher up from bigger bumps, hitting the suspension harder.

• accelerating and braking between each bump causes engine and tyre noise, and tyre and brake dust, which are toxic.

They let AI into the curriculum immediately, while actual life skills have been excluded for the benefit of work skills since Prussian schooling became popular. Dumbing down the livestock.
