Chinese cities are not really "cities". They are closer to counties and in some instances like Chongqing, a literal province. The bigger cities are a administratively half a level above counties.
The biggest value for me is that it helped me breakdown my moral positions so I figured out what I truly cared about. I had previously held many culturally influenced moral positions which I found little to no grounding…
I think you can still have morals - I'm just saying that your morality is a product of you personally interacting with the world. There's no fountain of moral knowledge that we collectively drink from. So.. don't be…
First off, the logical conclusion of my statement is that we should procreate. Second, calling biology constraining is a gross underestimation of our complex normative system which gives birth to the best and worst of…
Everything is arbitrary. What's even more arbitrary than descriptive truths are moral truths - like - don't kill the innocent. The sooner we reconcile our differences and realize that society is only possible through…
Well it wasn't always a case for the Asian community either yet somehow the Asian community thrives today. The same can be said for other white communities too like the Irish and the Italians.
A lot of paintings get stolen though, what makes this case special
Seeweed is ok, but I'm a huge fan of kelp. Any broth-like soup with kelp will instantly taste better
Just to be clear, we want costs to be passed on because the real solution to climate change is an adjustment to our consumption habits.
This thread reminds of facebook comments of people saying AWS is dumb because you can just put 10 CPUs and 5 sticks of ram for a quarter of the price. I don't get what's so hard to understand here, it just glamping for…
Under a capitalist system, you just need to force people to pay for the externalized cost so incentives align.
Oh damn, you're right, I totally misread the article
Why does the narrative that Russia blew up its own pipeline exist.
> Nope, those student athletes get special treatment because they are student athletes. Unless you have backing data, this sounds like sour grapes
I don't know why we can't just force everyone to show post tax/fees price upfront. It's complete bullshit that every restaurant bill comes with 3 different taxes.
Source for this please > That "someone else" used state power to beat you, imprison you and starve your family if you dared to organize with other workers. Luddites pre-dated socialism and worker organization. Unless…
It's sad, I think there's a negative feedback loop of, supermarkets only selling the most common produce, and people only learning recipes that use the produce supermarkets sell.
> Luddism stood not against technology per se but for the rights of workers above the inequitable profitability of machines Being against the inequitable profitability of machines is just as dumb as being against…
I thought everyone does this haha
Yea we desperately need land reform. What Japan did after WW2 should set an example [0]. Also, investment properties should be heavily taxed to disincentivize this behavior. [0]:…
Yea totally, earth spins much faster these days and its difficult to keep up. Numerous studies have shown that, past a certain age, retraining is almost pointless, younger folks still have a chance. But, no matter what,…
I'm saying the bill would still require a safety driver even if AV trucks are proven to be just as safe
Ok, but the bill is ignoring the if which is idiotic
Why is this veto controversial? If autonomous trucks are proved to be just as safe as a human driven truck, why should there be a safety driver.
The funny double standard is that SF has signs everywhere telling you to keep stuff outside of your car if you don't wanna get your car broken into. But it's completely wrong to tell a woman to dress more modestly if…
