Bunk. Populist: yes, socialist: no. You seem to have missed that "National Socialism" had nothing whatsoever to do with socialism other than being against it. It even states as much in the article.
Sorry, but anecdotal experiences does not justify "tough on crime" brutal, disproportionate retribution when there are greater systematic forces at work that merely looking at individual cases and greater-good issues…
Well, this is no surprise. Nixon's and Reagan's explicit agendas were to criminalize the poor and minorities into oblivion. The neoliberals, Clintons and Biden, even adopted this Republican platform stance in order to…
In times of lack of leadership, it's easier to blame a mythical "them" rather than confront specific faulty, corrupt, incompetent bureaucrats. Furthermore, it provides a sense of tribal community in uncertain times.…
"Victim?" There are also willing participants. Extending Upton Sinclair's quote: It is difficult to get someone to understand something when their salary, lifestyle, beliefs, or opinions depends upon them not…
Forcing kids back into school is insanely ridiculous; not for the kids' health, but for health and safety of everyone else around them because the kids get thrown into routine super-spreader events. Furthermore, the new…
Granted the immense infrastructure investment, but why not ditch electrical and natural gas for hydrogen? Hydrogen is much safer, cleaner, and less lossy than either.
I thought this was what Conan did. Am I missing something?
How can unfairness be spread "evenly" when it is a amorphous, unique, and situational impression? Also, isn't that like a wrong rationalizing its existence by another wrong? Let us consider unfairness such as forcing a…
I don't understand this acceptance of meritless praise, much like body positivity towards the morbidly obese who are on the verge of dying. It's tantamount to rationalizing cheating on a test person gets a job versus…
Tokugawa Ieyasu’s shit list includes comedians. That's funny. Leave Conan, Oliver, and Fallon alone, but Japan can have the rest of the American celebrity comedians to despise.
Memories. I remember the Apple //e in elementary school ('83 or '84) with LOGO and Oregon Trail. (Thanks Apple!) Oddly enough, I also remember almost burning my finger on some of the units with the light on the…
Hey Matt @ Matterport, where's your giant pool noodle kooshball from the Palo Alto/Stanford area these days? ;-) (Matterport was listed as an investment. Also, no longer across from the original YC location anymore. :((…
Yes. Call it "Sierra Nevada sea salt," just as how "Himalayan sea salt" mostly comes from Pakistan. That is, after you evaporate it down to solids.
CAES also has awful energy density of ~100 kJ/m^3 or ~100 J/L. It's not worth it. Small CAES implies closer to people and more likely to experience heat and fires, more so than say 200 psi / 13 atm air compressors, and…
Former USPTO patent examiners who do consulting are gold to work with your patent lawyers. Remember that a provisional patent is like chicken soup: just throw everything into it. For general legal assistance: Orrick.…
Mattress moving bags. Also, PFA beds without all the chemicals like Casper, Purple, or Avocado might help.
Oh my. It reminds me that about 2001, I purchased a medium quality Serta bed from Mancini's Sleepworld (in CA) that arrived in a sealed plastic bag. The mattress stunk with a chemical odor (assuming it was FR's) for 2…
---- Home ---- ---- Home - water ---- - Reverse Osmosis water filter with pre UV filtration, 50 GPD membrane, and permeate pump (TDS <2 ppm) - Whole house carbon block water filter - removes some concerns about junk in…
For fixed-site applications of sufficient land area and scale, it's difficult to beat pumped-storage hydroelectricity (PSH). The round-trip efficiency is around or above 70%, the same or better than CAES. CAES is…
Speaking of car paint, I have a mid-80's VW Westfalia camper in need of a fresh, bomb look. Honestly, what paint job would you go with in the US southwest? 1. Two-tone red and white with matching interior 2. One of…
