Even if one assumes that Windows Phone was wonderful (and a long WP7 user, I’m sympathetic to this view), it still doesn’t follow that Windows Phone didn’t kill Nokia. - Windows Phone had no brand value. It didn’t add…
I hope by “healthy foods” you’re aren’t gonna tell us red meat and raw milk. But either way, why would economists have commented on what healthy food is and why would anyone listen to them for health information? That’s…
Voters don’t reward politicians for solving problems. If they did these problems would have been solved.
What about showing you have the capacity to close the strait requires charging a toll?
Yeah, that’s absolutely true. And thats exactly my point. Social media is about “generating content”. Social networks were about connecting with people, not about consuming the content they generated. Heck, the original…
The terminology explains what happened. The Zuckerberg movie was called The Social Network. At the time we saw the likes of Facebook as networks intended to build 1-1 communications. Since then, it’s become social…
You’ve literally stated that you are “not knowledgeable enough to debate if it’s a net negative or positive.” and then you’re wondering why someone who has a significant amount of knowledge about the system in question…

I don’t believe there’s any evidence behind plant’s feeling or thinking. Other than that you’re right.
The only cheating Hans admitted to and the only cheating proven were two (maybe 3?) online non monetary games when he was under 15 years old. Pretty much every player has done something like that. But again, he was…

Kramnik is an asshole and this action is far too little far too late. His actions have possibly already led to the loss of a life. At the same time, FIDE also needs to look back at the behavior of some of the most…
The $34 million gives the idea that the water is worth $34 million, but the water costs of growing Alfalfa (largely to be used in the extremely inefficient animal agriculture industry), are a small fraction of the…
Dogs kill about 30-50 people in the U.S. every year. Intimate partner gun violence alone leads to about 700 women being killed every year. So by your logic, if you’re a woman and your partner has a gun, and is walking…
Or even better eliminating or at least reducing animal agriculture that aside from the ethical, health and global warming concerns, is a massive user of local resources relative to the non animal resources.
Nope. Not this administration at all. Trump 1 was a very different administration. And Trump himself has publicly backed off what was probably his one major achievement after receiving pushback from his supporters.
There are other quotes that do think it’s significant. Why do you think the more critical scientists are more correct? > John Glass, a synthetic biologist at the J. Craig Venter Institute in La Jolla, Calif., who was…
Russia cannot be fully “undone”. Ukraine’s goal cannot be, and is not, to “defeat” Russia. Ukraine’s goal, correctly, is to increase the cost of this war sufficiently that Putin’s underlings and oligarchs will revolt…
And far more viruses spread naturally from animals to humans and far more epidemics have been caused by that. So the logic of “they are a common occurrence” speaks to the opposite conclusion.
The post is not wrong. It’s just incomplete and the headline is wrong. A lot of what Cuban is saying is true. But in the U.S., a lack of regulations means that the local effects of data centers, in terms of overloading…
What’s the problem with the trade deficit? Americans are getting actual products and services in return for depreciating IOUs. It’s like a loan where the lender pays interest. Why would anyone be against that? Note:…
America’s decision to make healthcare a for profit industry is the root of all of this. The obvious points are medicines and equipment. To some degree, these are actually the most justifiable parts of the industry that…
In the U.S. property rights superseded human rights. That’s what slavery was. In fact, slaves were essentially treated as we do animals today. Our descendants will look at us the way we do our slave owning ancestors.…
