Yes, that's exactly what I'm talking about. It's amazing how easy communication is when your words aren't interpreted in the most obtuse and uncharitable way by extreme progressives
He still has time to do loan forgiveness "helicopter money" style. But even if all we got was an expansion of targeted relief programs I think it totally counts as fulfilling his talking point. The issue with student…
A major factor that I see surprisingly few people advocate for even in an educational setting is helmet color and high-visibility clothing. If I remember correctly just wearing a white helmet alone is associated with a…
Motorcycles have about 29 times the deaths per mile compared to cars. If all you're worried about is saving space and gas they're a great option - my Honda cruiser gets about 80mpg. But it's incredibly dangerous. I…
Producing data for something like that sounds like an incredible ask and I'd be super interested to see how other people have tried to tackle that problem. My anecdotal experience is that they teach something close to…
If they took the same heavy-handed approach to diet that they took with smoking I'd find the policy approach a lot more tolerable honestly. Just picking one or the other seems like discrimination because I think…
yeah 100%. I do wonder about the energy requirements though because intuitively they don't totally make sense. I still don't understand why it couldn't be used as an infinite energy generator. Is it really just that the…
Even if the FTL aspect turns out to be impossible, I think it's still an interesting hypothetical alternative to chemical and electric thrusters. More realistically I'd bet it's even further off than terrestrial/lunar…
It would be worth quite a bit, but it would have to be comparable to either rogaine or hair transplant surgery. Hairline surgery isn't worth the money for most men, but they wouldn't even blink paying that much for…
Something gives me the feeling someone would have cured baldness like 50 years ago if it actually caused health problems for people.
from my experience, it's absolutely necessary if you listen to a lot of podcasts because every tech-illiterate podcaster dude will see an EQ setting on their microphone/recording software and think "low frequencies are…
Once the child is past the age of breast feeding, biology has nothing to do with how well you can raise a child. It might determine who ends up with the child since judges tend to favor women, but that has more to do…
If secular therapy needs to provide a view from nowhere in order to fill a need, then I'd say you're right. But it seems like the goal here instead is to provide an alternative for people who are disillusioned with the…
It feels like in a lot of circles now the expectation is for Conservatives to be unreasonable idiots, so people tend to put the blame on non-conservatives in the same way you'd blame the parent for raising a snotty child
>"Moral (or amoral) behavior, I would think, requires intent." That itself is not something all ethicists would agree with. Finally, my bachelor's in philosophy comes in handy. I don't understand the point in even…
I'm not trained in STEM at all but these discussions are always a little confusing for me because if our goal is to bootstrap mining/manufacturing in space, why does everyone jump to expensive, complicated and…
There is no arguing with you people. The sort of things you miss out on if you're homeschooled are totally unimaginable to you so there isn't anything I can say that will change your stance unless you literally live…
To argue against your point that public school wouldn't have helped requires me to share really personal experiences. It's frustrating to be forced to share them over and over with people who probably won't take the…
>As someone else pointed out, it's not clear that school helps with [learning how to be likeable] The rebuttal to your point is so simple and obvious it's really hard to take you seriously. Socializing is a skill that…
I made an account just to comment on homeschooling since I grew up homeschooled in the US and have a lot of opinions about it. It's great if you have intelligent parents who know when to say "I don't know," but if you…
