Who are you referring to? For clarification it was Rittenhouse who cleaned graffiti, not any of the victims, which seems to support the grandparents argument.
One can also let themselves be misled by the media for political reasons. If you actually watched the trial and reviewed the publicly available evidence, and still think the jury made the wrong decision, then I agree,…

I guess you don't believe in the concept of innocent until proven guilty?

Technical jargon like "gigantic" or "enormous"?
It seems like it would be simple to just create a fork and archive the old repo. Add a note to the old repo, update a couple of the most important docs and links, and then worry about the rest later. It can be low…
I think what he meant was that you can take a group of people and train them for a sport. Some of those people (genetically elite athletes) will improve very quickly with minimal training, others can do massive amounts…
I think you are arguing against a strawman. I've never heard someone suggest that the machine operator shouldn't be paid. Same for the other example who would clearly be doing labor.
Yes, we can clearly say that capital gains is unearned. Unearned income can also be taxable.
> no, we can't say at all that capital gains are unearned. Yes, we can say this. The IRS classifies capital gains as unearned income.
The parent post is not talking about managers, they receive a salary and are taxed at regular income rates. It's taking about shareholders. Someone who makes money by owning a stock should be taxed more aggressively…
Lack of healthcare, limited job opportunities, growing income inequality, are just a few reasons off the top of my head.
In general I agree with you, but it also makes me wonder how these people got to this point. I think most people would burn the Mona Lisa if it meant surviving through a cold night. Our society has failed these people…
Yes, that was kind of my point. Either tobacco is uniquely bad or it can be grouped "along with other drugs". It can't be both.
> Tobacco, along with other drugs, is uniquely bad. How can it be "uniquely bad" if it's "along with other drugs"?
I don't think this is true, do you have a source for this? What does it even mean that he constantly marketed himself, is doing lots of shows considered "marketing yourself"?

Violence is not always counterproductive
I think that's not true for me and a lot of other people. If I read a specific criticism/review of a movie or book I often make a decision not based on good/bad but based on what the criticism is about. If a movie has…
General jargon like foobar is not that far off in meaning from "unfinished software". I think it's possible there's not really a contradiction between the different sources. The "unfinished software" meaning in the NYT…

I feel the same way, after the first couple of responses, I was just thinking it's blue-green. So I just had to pick randomly. A better interface would have been to just show the final spectrum pic and slide to where…
I was thinking along similar lines. If this was purely due to brain signals, I would think the artificial sweetener would also work.
