After you, sir.
The entire LBJ series and The Power Broker? Ambitious! Caro has a fantastic voice in his writing but by golly he sure does know how to fill a thousand pages!
Imagine deployable solar canvases! Similar to how satellites collect power. In the past two decades, I think this could have been useful. The US deployments were in the middle east (plenty of sunshine) and were mostly…
"Say I read an anti-Semitic leaflet and then perform a hate crime. How much of the responsibility do I bare and how much does the writer of the leaflet? And how much does the printing press?" Here is where this line of…
In a thread full of awful futures, I find this one to be the most depressing.
Love it. Reads like a country version of the Serenity Prayer. "God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, And wisdom to know the difference."
The fact that the truck looks like a Warthog from the Halo video games aside, I feel that this truck is destined for the defense market. Overly sturdy frame, bulletproof windows, no gasoline. Electric vehicles that can…
Yeah, people on here don't seem to understand that you read the New Yorker for narrative and literary craft, not for getting information as fast as possible.
Come experience the world famous staycations of Norilsk. People travel from around the world to staycate here.
There's been one great outcome of this: me discovering my city's library. It has an incredible film and tv collection. Anything newer than 2016 is also on Blu Ray. If you're a big cinephile like me, having thousands of…
Despite what the rest of the US may think, San Francisco is not a centrally planned Communist city. You can't just take land.
I have to be careful reading articles like this. I have hundreds of hours logged in 2004's Rome Total War. All it takes is reading some interesting fact about Rome's military or one of their enemies and I can find…
I feel similar. Years ago, I used to be very into YouTube. I followed the channels I loved closely and loved discovering new channels. It felt like I could search for any topic I was interested in and find a small, cool…
Or rely on wars on other continents to drag their opponent's attention away?
Your first paragraph reminds me of the "Go Fever" phenomenon associated with the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster[1]. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_fever
That's how it's sold. It's really payback-politics. Obama admin did this? Don't care what it is, revoke it.
If you are working in tech and can't think of anyone that big tech has spurned, you need to think about how it's changed the lives of most Americans in the past two decades. Cab drivers: Uber. Small businesses: Amazon.…
