I think you're missing the fact that running a successful school is much easier when you can kick out anyone you want for any reason. Schools have been underfunded for decades. They're part of our failing…
I think fundraisers should be banned as part of the process... or perhaps max contributions should be capped per student. They almost universally benefit the kids who have better connected and wealthier parents. One…
Being somewhat wealthy probably helps significantly.
Judge's judge, it's up for the plaintiff to make the case against any long-standing precedence that's contrary to their case.
>Their original founder is outspoken against them Would anyone on the planet take investment advice from John McAfee?
So replace roads with tubes containing a fixed track that prevents animals, weather, and people from interfering. Then add tube outlets to areas that are frequented by most travelers. You could even put these tubes…
Are there comparable jobs in the country today? Entry level with no experience for $75k/year? Seems like the norm is more like $31k without adjusting for inflation?
Yeah the Soviets hit mars in the early 70s; we barely had memory chips at the time.
I too like the smell of my own farts.
This isn't a 1:1 comparison. Everyone's 18-22 at some point in their lives... not everyone is black or muslim. Replace 18-22 year olds with 13-17 year olds. Do you feel any different? I do agree that this is arbitrary…
Imagine if these were dogs in the photo. People would lose their minds.
If it's in your house (server) you can do what you want with it (granted there are no laws preventing it). It's an independent for-profit company. You can kick someone out of a physical store for what they do or say all…
Grid-attached solar can also reduce strain on the grid, so it's not all for naught in terms of increasing reliability.
The entire concept is loli territory, it's the fetisihization of school girls. It's not inappropriate because it's a mascot, it's inappropriate because this is the blog of a grown man with a teenage girl for a mascot.…
The point is a bit deluded when it's made on a blog with underage anime girls.
yeah but also in the meantime... be reasonable and don't take 7 hour flights to nowhere
"The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it."
Yes, I've lost a couple friends over this unfortunately. Maybe because it's so... insidious? There are engineers at Facebook that think Facebook is protecting free speech. It's so strange.
Oh for sure, I don't think just anyone should go building one... there are reasons we have building codes, but there's a lot of valuable knowledge there that gets discredited because of how these things look to "normal"…
No worries... I always react to this because I see a lot of people online parroting an "no really, I'm not a hippie" attitude without thinking about the origin of that feeling!
I sense some hippie shame (maybe I'm wrong)! IMO a lot of that feeling stems from the government and ruling class pushing back against counter-culture. They were more right about the environment (among other issues)…
Jeff Bezos' employees could also invest in those companies if the wealth were better distributed. With the current model yes, Bezos invests in companies that pay wages, but he's the one seeing compounding returns... by…
Yeah this is it in my experience. It looks like they're optimizing for age, but they're really optimizing for cost and ageism is a side-effect. I've seen this happen at almost every job I've had: Senior engineer with…
sell them at cost
Good for them.
