I'd like to see the National Snow and Ice Data Center's data (soil moisture, sea ice cover/concentration, snow cover [looks like MODIS is already available], permafrost, glacier outlines) on AWS. I know there are people…
>selfishness and self-interest leads to isolation where nobody will help you with anything worthwhile Cultivating relationships to one's own benefit is a form of self-interest. This is about self-interest, not…
Those can both be true.
>fire worked as a technology well before we truly understood underlying physics. Just following the analogy; what science was fire validating during that time? Just because something works doesn't mean it wasn't created…
Nobody is suggesting prescribing mushrooms for any pain greater than a pulled muscle and covering it under insurance like we do with opioids. If I wanted an opioid recreationally, I'm pretty sure I'd have a hell of a…
Can you please elaborate? I don't think I've heard of this story, but when vaping started getting popular I wondered how the big tobacco companies would control the market. What do you mean by "several million in float…
This is an interesting idea. An information management tool like git could accomplish this, but it would be really interesting to see this automated or self-reported or something like that. Although... the kind of…
Another word-for-word echo of the top comment in this thread. Seriously? I'm not blaming MIT. What did I say that indicated this? I'm arguing about "suicide is a choice." It's not. Choice has something to do with it,…

I think you'll find that almost everywhere on the Internet, and most places in meatspace too... :(
Aren't you just repeating the first few words of the grandparent comment? I hardly think "suicide is a choice" is an appropriate thing to say. Take recent suicide rates in the military. Do all those soldiers decide to…
This is about contract price-fixing, not price-fixing of apple products.
No one should expect perfection, but I think most would expect any company with the means to follow the laws of every country they operate in, because that's their obligation. If they can't follow the law, they…
It may be a whitelist filter. Inevitably, isn't that the result of every whitelist-based filter?
