Much more focus on caching, bog tech companies are national instead of international (benefits from being local)

More wikis, more asynchronous communication and less synchronous

@sj but the bet offer was geniune

@sj I will probably not do that, since it doesn't feel like it passes my relevance threshold. I acknowledge that this is a bit of a dick move (to criticize a paper based on the abstract and then refusing to give a detailed critique).

Best thing I might do is to argue against the decomposition approach in forecasting and try to find evaluations of it, I have the intuition it's either not been investigated or shown to be biased downwards

@sj their 2043 claim

@sj I'd be willing to bet against their claim at 50:1 odds. Their methodology is likely broken, and I will try to figure out whether there is any scientific support for this kind of question decomposition

@RadicalEdward david please take a walk
