It's almost like an emergent feature of a tool that's literally built on best guesses is...guesswork. Not what you want out of a tool that's supposed to be replacing professionals!
That's the thing - we already know that each given interest group has common interests. That's how you build coalitions, by finding those common interests and tamping down on the differences. The problem with the youth…
I feel like you shouldn't get to criticize protests for not being violent enough if you're not already performing sufficiently-violent protests. "Firebombing a Walmart" meme really is evergreen.
There is zero guarantee that these tools will continue to be there. Those of us who are skeptical of the value of the tools may find them somewhat useful, but are quite wary of ripping up the workflows we've built for…
As opposed to the implication that Robinson is somehow a leftwing activist, confidently claimed by every GOP politician from coast to coast? Also, even if it were, as you say, "misinformation", that is now somehow taboo…
You literally only had to read one more sentence: "With Monday’s announcement universal child care will be extended to every family in the state, regardless of income. This amounts to an average annual family savings of…
Maybe a comet?
Of course, this is not really a useful (or provable) criticism as long as the actual obstructionists are obstructing! Much more useful to oust the obstructionists, then you can work on holding the alleged lip-servicers…
Yeah, the horrible pay in private school is proof enough that the "free" market is the absolute wrong way to go if you want better teachers.
Well, if you get to teach a lot of well-off kids who have a lot of extra support at home and you can siphon off the undesirables onto others, you get good marks when most of them inevitably "succeed". If you have to…
The only thing that burned up in the atmosphere for the Space Shuttle program was the fuel tank. All the other components, including the booster rockets, were recovered and refurbished for reuse. The innovation here…
Actually, mere mortals pay tax eventually when they cash out their investments to pay for the things they want. The wealthy get to take low-interest loans against their investments to pay for the things that they want,…
I know this is a troll, but I'll respond anyway. If someone can prove he's discriminating against institutions on the basis of religion, he can be sued. Whether he takes money from the government or not doesn't matter…
>>> “let’s avoid abortion, if we can” >>> I see little argument to allow abortion in a logical sense This is akin to saying "let's avoid major surgery, if we can", and then arguing that this leads to the logical…
Sure, maybe in tech, which had been in an unsustainable bubble for a long time. But unless everything changed in the last few weeks, we haven't seen this in the overall labor market, which remains as hot and…
This has nothing to do with WFH, and more to do with how conditioned we are to rely on offices and employers to give us direction in life. It's like when you graduate high school and go to college, no one is going to…
Factories don't shut down on the weekends, they just have different groups of people come in for different shifts. A 4-day work week would just mean that they have to hire more people to fill the hours. Productivity…
And then you would promptly get run over because your voice is not nearly loud/attention-grabbing enough.
> So a crisis was invented. Are you saying that the millions upon millions who died (not to mention the untold millions who are suffering long-term health problems), didn't actually die? Or that what they died from (a…
Ah, so you want to talk about democracy, do you? Neither the north nor the south can really be considered democratic institutions by modern standards - less than half of their population could vote at the time of the…
Probably should focus on implementing strong labor protections and encouraging union participation (which would blunt the effect this sort of weapon has), instead of eliminating them.
Right, I'm not sure there's one unifying theory that you could bundle it under, not sure what the right term is for a general concept rather than a hard testable theory. But that just further proves the need to stop…
I mean, until we actually prove that dark matter is "something", we need to stop calling it that. All it is, is some constant that we apply to make sense of the motion of galactic-scale objects. And we use "dark energy"…
How is this different than your typical wall street trader in the 80s and 90s? The only thing that's different now is that access to these markets isn't gated behind class and privilege, anyone can participate. Maybe…
Bats are extremely far down the list of things we have to worry about, when we continue to have millions of infected people who proudly and angrily spew virus-infested air particles uncontrolled into their communities…
