I mostly find your argument convincing, but keep in mind that there is no unitary "US government": most charges are under state law. This means that although the national government can know where you are down to the…
You may find useful books from the early 1900s on the library of congress website.
> If Bumble can do it, Twitter can. If US banks and credit card agencies can't do it properly, why can Twitter?
> Sure but there's probably provable ways to look for hidden stuff as well unless they are sending empty data. Isn't this equivalent to the halting problem? Even with source code, there is a chance the compiler was…
Two things can be true at once: fire season is coming earlier (climate change) and we have known since the 1990s that the West Coast needs controlled burns, but have not been doing them. (I saw an article about the CA…
> Corona-viruses from my understanding, do mutate. Already, reinfection by different strains of COVID-19 has been documented (by DNA sequencing) in Korea. The more people who catch COVID-19, the greater the space of…
The poster's question should be interpreted as: can the color of the stars be distinguished with the naked eye?
Also r/g colorblind, and that line surprised me. Apparently it is visible to the naked eye on the brighter stars: https://earthsky.org/?p=2875
What is the value of a life-saving commodity? How much would you pay for 2-year mask features in March 2020?
HFT have installed microwave relays between Chicago and New York and between London and Berlin to arbitrage on the 47% fiber optic delay between the exchanges. A LEO satellite relay serves the same purpose. I can see…
If the staff in your local monopoly grocery store is underperforming, do you defund the store? How about your engineering company? In each case, the solution is to replace/remove under-performers while increasing…
ButeDance is a Chinese company responsible for complying with directives from the CCP. If one doesn't trust the CCP, then one should not trust ByteDance.
They don't even operate in China (blocked by the Great Firewall), so a pro-Chinese bias to their content is circumstantial evidence that the true purpose of the app is light foreign psyops.
If a publisher violates a tax law, it can be shut down without worrying about free speech issues. Same with a phone company or church in violation of federal laws (although large lawsuits are a given). Tiktok is not…
Rhetoric about US values has been empty since Guantanamo Bay started housing "foreign militants". Europe seems to be the only place in the West where a commitment to human rights is sincere.
From my personal contacts, it seems that those who can afford it are now moving out of the cities or acquiring rural "vacation" homes. The people I know who are buying are all upper managers or higher in salary.
The SSN is not an ID but a number: anyone with your number can claim to be you for the purposes of transactions. The number is only tied to name and birthdate, maybe address if you are of the age to pay taxes. This…
$180B per week would be $9.4T per year. Almost half of the economy in stimulus seems likely to be quite inflationary.
Reuse of medical masks is fine if people are careful: 1. Store reused masks in a designated spot to avoid cross contamination. 2. Wash hands after putting on and taking off used masks. 3. Dispose of masks which get wet…
The first amendment doesn't preclude the government liquidating a news business or publisher for unrelated reasons, such as fraud or tax violations. In this case Bytedance is basically being accused of (being accomplice…
I haven't seen the EO, but didn't it cite section 230, which regulates how websites can filter content to maintain safe harbor status?
It seems to me that no volition is needed on the part of journalists: journolists need sympathetic and sensational stories, but a sensational story is more likely than an average story to be false. (Extraordinary claims…

Why are coins more impacted than bills? Shouldn't a slowdown in the movement of cash throughout the economy affect both coins and bills roughly equally?
It seems that GDP should only tell part of the story with respect to specialist incomes. A senior engineer in the US will have their salary and contribution diminished by regulatory requirements and business…
