I'm not so confident in that first claim, and my anecdotal evidence doesn't support your theory. However you did mention some other studies on this thread that support your claim this is a regressive tax, I'm worried I…
is it? i dont see the relevant other studies, and my initial assumptions would be that the median subway user is lower income than the median car driver in NYC, so transfering funds from car drivers to subway…
Im not sure this fits, they saw a much larger drop (18%) in heavy duty trucks entering the city, and a smaller drop (9%) in passenger cars. I am not sure the public transit options are close alternatives for heavy duty…
I am a little confused, why would sloppiness in the media release (the article that uses the word tailpipe), have anything to do with sloppiness in the study, which the above comment clearly highlights is about PM2.5,…
by my reading that is the authors point? if they are capable of getting a 700k loan, that makes them ↑5, regardless of their income or assets.
there is blog post somewhere i read, i cannot find it at the moment, that discusses the idea of "doctor problems" vs "musician problems". Doctor problems are problems where low quality solutions are deeply bad, so you…
There is a vast gap in how academia treats adjunct vs tenure track professors, a difference the author of this blog has spent a decent amount of words explaining and complaining about.
> So did they buy these stocks from Intel itself? in a sense, although buy is not quite the right word. there were grants promised to chip manufacturers under certian conditions. trump decided to wave those conditions…
I mean, when the press secretary was asked why tesla wasnt invited, he said they invited the 3 largest employers of UAW. it sounds like a UAW event called 'Electric Vehicle Summit'? What led you to belive it wasnt about…
its a cryptocurrency, the courts legitimacy would likely come from the community forking as necessary to resolve issues as identified by the court, in the same way the us judicial branch gets its legitimacy from the us…
no idea. However the above comment is easily verifiable. Here is a link saying that the return would be around February 2025 [1]. There seems no reason to believe either trump or Elon forced some sort of rush, or Biden…
Apologies if you thought I meant this. I was using them as a reference for what people modeling the election from polls were predicting! I don't know what Nate Silver was predicting. Was he predicting a near-split…
I dont belive that claim is actually true? the most likely result predicted by 538 was 312 for trump [0] the issue with the model was the 2nd most likely result was 319 for harris. they thought the odds of a recount…
Uh, we did push further north? That's why China intervened? I am not sure what exactly you are suggesting here, but its hard to believe that a nuclear war against china (and likely the USSR) in 1951 as MacArthur seemed…
Just addressing the Galileo part, but as was recently linked in hackernews [1][2], Galileo was wrong (in the sense that he was arguing for an already discredited theory, and that the theory he was arguing against was…
oh the talk page comment is old enough that I assume its mostly been fixed, although the Urubamba-Caura length discrepancy noted by someone else on the talk page is still there. I was commenting more at the fascination…
I feel its worth asking questions about the talk page. Specifically: > Most of the data in this article is sourced from somebody calling himself Intergalactic Power and Light. Some random guy's personal web page does…
Things like this make me want to read Against Method [1]. Like, yeah that seems 'not science' in one serious sense, but also not really? It falls into what I understand of Kuhn's 'normal science'. Slightly adjusting…
Am I reading the article wrong, or did the main character of this story, quit his job as a former labor secretary, because when his department was accidentally too generous with benefits, he received death threats?
I am not sure thats exactly what the article was saying, picture 3.B [1] seems to show that the placebos themselves are getting stronger over time, both in an absolute sense, and relative to the drugs. Approving less…
