Perhaps people over 30 just prefer quality over quantity in personal relationships.
The article says it will replace some other benefits that Finns currently have. If the project works then I assume other welfare programs will be folded into the basic income over time.
Why would it be evil? It is merely self-defense. Why do we need to treat savages like little princesses just because they happen to be human? I mean if a dog acts too aggressive it gets put down and nobody complains,…
Why do criminals need to be treated humanely though? Won't the deterrent effect of prison be reduced if we go too easy on them?
I think it's fascinating how hostile some people can get towards Soylent. It's like they think the mere existence of it is an attack to the core of their identity. I wonder if it's just insecurity triggered by people…

Common sense.
They can be professional all they like but if they only have money as a motivator to work at a place they hate then they'll just be poor performers. They won't have the energy to do more than the bare minimum.…
Unions don't donate directly, they make independent campaign expenditures through Super PACs. Look in the Independent Expenditures tab in the page you gave me.
> I'm just saying the result isn't representative and shouldn't be framed as the will of the people. Fine, but then you can't really frame anything as being or not the will of the people as there's no point of…
Obama is a union-sponsored king actually, so it's all good I guess.
There are primaries and third parties, you know? That the final choice comes down to two mediocre individuals says more about the intelligence of the average voter than any sort of corporate conspiracy. I'll give you…
Sound like sour grapes and No True Scotsman to me. The president, who is leading negotiations, was elected democratically, and Congress, who decides whether this treaty becomes law or not, was also elected…
> Who are these people who want to eat this because it's faster so they can work more? Or maybe they eat this so they can play more? I just find it totally disturbing that you've chosen eating food as one of your…
You shouldn't take modafinil daily though as you can develop a tolerance. You should take it 3 consecutive days and then rest the other 4 days of the week. Also extreme focus kills creativity so the rest days allow for…
So if someone offered you to kill al-Baghdadi for 10 bucks, you would just say no?
Basic income is not a left vs right issue. Lots of libertarians (including Milton Friedman and Friedrich Hayek) support basic income as a more efficient safety net than government-run programs.
Baby steps. Maybe an employee will ask to be paid partly in BTC which I'm sure they'll be happy to oblige to avoid the conversion fees.
If there is a program that sucks and the maintainer is unwilling to merge your changes that (according to you) make it better, then what choice do you have but to compete? Or are you willing to just let it be and try to…
You are being melodramatic. There is no anti-Tesla sentiment, at least here on HN. People were simply asking why didn't Tesla release the patents under an irrevocable, royalty-free defensive patent license instead of…
"If you don't like it, write something yourself" is a perfectly legitimate answer, and people who have a problem with that answer are basically suggesting that we should just stop everything we are doing and write…
As an alternative you could combine Soylent with intermittent fasting to get keto benefits.
You could try a DIY soylent customized to your needs. http://diy.soylent.me/
He is mistaken. Soccer is a 24/7/365 thing in South America and Europe and people don't seem to be getting tired of it. The sport itself is not what matters, what people care about is the competition.
