I agree, but it also interestingly at the same time gives me a conflicting thought - how can we be so confident that we know what's going on in/around our planet if such a huge percentage of the population doesn't have…
There's a difference between funding research and funding development and manufacturing. No company would develop and manufacture a drug if they wouldn't make profit of it, no matter how much related research was or…
Well I give them props for at least having a facade of a "what went wrong" section, which most RN articles leave out, although it doesn't feel like an honest analysis of the negatives of their switch. I'd like to see…
The title claims "behind every self-made millionaire", then the article subtitle claims "behind most self-made millionaires", then the article body just points at a grand total of 4 human beings that are millionaires…
Whether or not any of the post is accurate, it really just comes off as a begrudged ex-employee trying to throw dirt. As a supposedly former "senior software engineer", their entire description of the problem is that…
At even colder temps than that EV batteries start having even more problems, for example they become permanently damaged if charged at freezing temps or below, so even more energy has to be used to heat the batteries…
Well they start by listing out the advantages of stuff like Robux: "Parental controls implemented in recent years mean out-of-control spending by children is less of a concern than it once was. By topping up virtual…
The title claims that a four-day week trail shows that working less increases productivity. The article provides two data points for this. 1) The author's personal research, in which they say they measured a 10%…
This comment is pretty much the definition of a straw-man argument. You're presenting an extreme opinion as the opinion of hundreds of millions of human beings. Just adding to the hate in the world.
Calmly and rationally? "It was relatively easy for most of us to condemn the allergic-to-truth rantings of former President Donald Trump. His lies were so transparent and prodigious that anyone outside the MAGA-verse…
How are we computing something we can't yet even define?
Weren't we already in that same situation every year/decade prior to covid when between 20,000 and 50,000 would die from the flu each year? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_influenza_statis...
Flu shots also use a vaccine mechanism that's been known/used for decades and is not a first of its kind in history mRNA treatment. I feel like this difference would lead towards one requiring more testing than the…
"can charge itself 40 miles a day in optimal conditions." <- I believe this is the "basic math" that you were asked to run. Using random numbers from Google for a Tesla 3 for an example, it has a 50kWh battery and 305…
Well, since this is from CNN, how about this fun game: I'll pay $10,000 to anyone that finds me a positive headline about Trump that CNN has ever at any point run. Heck, not even a positive article, how about just a…
Are you seriously making the claim that nearly 100% of motorists run stop signs, and using a less than one minute long video of one specific intersection with less than 10 vehicles in it as some sort of proof? You're…
"I work at Google and they've told me to work 125 hours weeks". In that statement I provided just as much evidence for my claim as the article does their claim. In fact, there's more proof for my claim since it has a…

"Maintaining cross platform compatibility has helped prevent potential bugs because each architecture and compiler set expose different sets of issues. The tools available for each platform differ enough that it is…
Well, you're doing a really great job reducing polarization and helping to improve the country by adding your partisan political hate into the mix and denouncing half of your fellow countrymen. Everybody else is the…
To be fair, that's only according to what he himself has admitted, which doesn't rule out more cheating than that.
According to this random (obviously socially/politically motivated) twitter user, who says they heard it from someone else who was allegedly told this in private. That's pretty far from "Musk admits".
Seems like a bit of cognitive dissonance here where the same people that seemingly constantly push the idea of remote work and how it supposedly doesn't affect their productivity and they work just as well/hard as in…
CDC estimates of flu deaths in the US per year: https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/2019-2020.html For the 2019-2020 year, there was an estimated 20,000 deaths for an average of 384 per week. For the 2018-2019 year,…
How did you arrive at 3 days? Why not 2? Why not 1? Why work at all when we can just print ourselves money until it all collapses? Do you own a business where you've allowed your employees to work different sized…
