Computers use base 2, binary. Whether humans use base 10 or base 60 is irrelevant.

Depending on what one means by normalcy, we have already started to deviate from it. With it mostly being felt economically, at the moment.
In the end, the rich and powerful only live in wealth because of the supply chain and, ultimately, the workers.
If civilization crumbles, so does their little empire.

Do you know why gangs form? It's much closer related to poverty and other systemic issues, than who the people themselves are. Being a gangster is not something that's in your genes, it's formed from environmental factors. Gangs come into existence because the system fails them, and they fall through the cracks.
When someone immigrates its likely due to a strong need to do so. And if you're new to a country, you won't know anyone, or have a solid grasp on the language, have little money, and likely struggle to find a job. These are the factors that cause criminal activity. They require active intervention to handle. And, very coincidentally, Sweden has been defunding or privatizing a lot of its public welfare state in recent times.
For example, someone being lonely and unable to find a job is a prime target for bad stuff. This is the target demographic of the alt-right pipeline, for example. Which also, by the way, very much is a thing that operates on non-immigrants too, it's just that they tend to go through politics, removing the rights of others, bigotry in politics, or move towards a police state.
It's short sighted to look at these problems as some individual failings, instead of the systemic issues that they are.
Lol
Sweden isn't broken because of immigration
Don't be so quick to believe in right wing lies
Sure. I already trust professionals with my life, why won't I here?
If you have depression and tried to commit suicide, will you always end up depressed and try to end your life?
Or is there more to it all?
Mental illness is not that straightforward.
Sure, but as an example, time being a constant whose rate doesn't change is a thing that'd make sense.. except it's completely wrong.
Turns out time is malleable and objects can experience it at different rates relative to each other, while keeping everything consistent.
Reality is weird and sometimes very counterintuitive.
Aren't the checkmarks prioritized to show up in the replies? If so, he effectively systematized astroturfing on twitter.
The problem is, due to the anthropic principle, we cannot say that the occurrence of life is average, because there is an inherent selection bias there. If life didn't exist on earth, we wouldn't be here to observe it. We only come into existence where life already is, and so we do not have a true average planet. To have a true average planet, we would have needed the ability to come into existence on a lifeless world. The cosmological principle actually doesn't quite hold, because we are in a privileged position, as we, by definition, cannot come into existence where there isn't life. This includes the kind of universe we exist in, as well, if multiple universes exist.
So, from our existence we cannot form any conclusions on how common life is. At best only an educated guess. If we detect life on another planet, only then can we begin drawing conclusions, as in that case we avoid a selection bias.
What do you mean algorithms are not in base 2? What else are they in?
Just because you have human readable code which uses base 10 doesn't mean it isn't all translated to binary down the line. If that's what you're referring to, of course. Under the hood it's all binary, and always has been.
