Well, yes and no. The remedies are impeachment and electoral accountability. Both of which have broken down in this era of extreme partisanship.
What is the profit margin of a health insurance company? Google suggests 2-4%, with United at about 6%. This does not seem that extravagant.
Or possibly you would have learned emotional regulation sooner. Kids change you, for the better if you let it. There's nothing like a completely helpless infant who is totally dependent on you to wear down your selfish…
I don't dispute that the teen birth rate is much lower now. I'm trying to estimate out the counterfactual "what would the US birth rate be if teen pregnancy was (say) the same as 2 decades ago" ? Currently it's 1.66.…
Children used to be your retirement plan.
Just the other day my wife and I were marveling that people in our neighborhood groups are requiring pet sitters to be insured and bonded. The future has always been uncertain. The modern world focusses on risk…
Where can I find information on how much of the birthrate decline is due to unwed teenage mothers?
> There is no effect on money supply if this is funded through taxes Of course there is. Suppose we tax Elon several billion dollars. Now, instead of sitting in his money vault, it flows into the economy where it…
Your access to all of that collective knowledge is funded by ad revenue.
The welfare state is predicated on a pyramid-shaped population. Also: people deride infinite growth, but growth is what is responsible for lifting large portions of the population out of poverty. If global markets were…
It's not though. Looking at exit pool demographics might help if you're struggling to have any empathy for a Trump voter. They are largely working class and undereducated and astonishingly diverse for a republican…
This can be done, carefully, through in-person conversations. I think it may be nearly impossible on social media, whose primary purpose seems to be to enforce group identity.
Elsewhere in the thread it suggests ~$30k for one link. Which is exactly in line with buying 10 of the ubiquiti devices. But I think you would need 20 of them, 10 on each end? Plus extra install, networking equipment,…
>it seems entirely possible (maybe even likely) that what we experience as consciousness is some kind of illusory side-effect of biological processes as opposed to something autonomous and “real”. I've heard this idea…
Seems like it should be a mortal sin or something. Also - the "Doge of Venice" ? What are the odds.
That is the whole point of Tariffs. To discourage purchase of foreign goods.
Why wouldn't you want to use Lets Encrypt for proxmox, etc. ?
If you are comparing Inferno to Paradiso, then this is a poor summary of it.
Playing around, the prompt "Arm cpus" generated an opponent "Leg cpus". You are technically correct...
Google's internal monorepo.
"You" can learn to steer your mind by choosing which of these thoughts to capture and dwell on, by monitoring them. There is voluminous writing in the area of monastic spiritually about this. On the one hand, they…
Loss is cumulative. After so many scars life can start to feel like a burden.
I mean, there was also a depression, a world war, and the increasing availability of birth control. That factoid doesn't mean much on its own.
We tried to counteract this with our own children by giving them a lot of freedom. But these things are very network dependent. Yes we let our kids play in the street and bike around the neighborhood, but it is boring…
