go to any impoverished town or neighborhood in any part of the USA and see for yourself: the running water is undrinkable, the food will slowly kill you, education is severely lacking, etc.
Brilliant :) All too often the "I'm just being honest" people are providing shallow knee-jerk feedback, and shutting down dialogue. Quality honest feedback is always presented with compassion.
> The moment you make race a factor in your judgment, by you have become racist by definition. This is not true. I just googled "racist" and it says "prejudiced against or antagonistic toward a person or people on the…
it’s an interesting idea but I have a feeling that harvesting seaweed at the mass scale necessary would have some impact on the ocean.
Obviously it would be different… context matters.
Color-Blindness is not the same thing as Judging the Content of Character. Of course, we all deserve to be judged based on the content of our character and not on superficial markers like skin, gender, etc, etc, etc.…
MLK did not preach “color blindness”, in fact he explicitly warned against the duplicity of “moderate whites” such as yourself.
perhaps some people cannot learn algebra / calculus the way it is traditionally taught in the classroom. perhaps the students who are failing just need a different environment, more time, more patience, different…
Did China drone strike civilians and hospitals in Hungary? Did the USA build any Universities in Afghanistan or Iraq?
So, you’re suggesting that the USA is in decline because marginalized groups are demanding equal treatment? I’ll agree that police violence is a symptom of much larger systemic issues, but you seem to be implying that…

Considering the gravity of what they're building, they should already have detailed answers to all these questions. They shouldn't have launched a startup without spending massive time and effort ironing out these…
A number of the tigers are on nature preserves, with help from scientists/conservationists. That would reduce the infant mortality rate since these tigers aren't really "in the wild".

Your post directly contradicts itself. If most people do not have much if any aesthetic sensibility, then perhaps you do need to be a font nerd (or a car nerd, shoe nerd, etc) to see these things intuitively.
Chrome, and thereby all Google webapps, run on every major OS.
Deeply disturbing... mainly because that salami looked quite tasty.
This is a tired joke, please let it die. Liberal Arts get shit on by everybody around here. Arguably, it's much more important than learning how to make fancy toys for rich people.
I was immediately reminded of The Baroque Cycle by Neal Stephenson. arethuza also mentions this series elsewhere in this comment section. A few of scenes from the books take place in London Coffeehouses, which are…
Looks pretty nice! I wonder what Meta will have to say.
This article isn't some "2012" doomsday nonsense. This is a real and pressing concern, indeed has been a concern for decades.
I could be so rich right now. I missed the bus completely on this one.
It blows my mind that those photos was taken over a quarter century ago, hidden by some playful programmers, and are only now unearthed by an entirely different generation of playful programmers. Cool stuff.
