Your only point is that the suggestion of the earth supporting 10bn people is akin to terrorism (which you later amended to "intellectual terrorism"), which I'd argue is objectively disingenuous... and completely…
I don't know if anyone's ever told you this, but you're being outwardly shitty when you have no reason to be. You're just throwing the word terrorism around disingenuously to get a rise out of people.
Please, describe to me how pointing out the inevitability of population increase is terrorism. You don't need to weaponize "sorry" — just don't say it. It doesn't make sense to jump to ad hominem attacks because…
If you want to put the Panama Canal through Boston it's going to cost astronomically more than $24bn — the logistics (not to mention the requirements and processes of the time period) are entirely different.
It is because I didn't say it was "just fine" I said "can" as in "is possible" — which is objectively true. ...and even if I did say it was "just fine" it wouldn't be tantamount to terrorism because I was pointing out…
I think catch-up sleep is just an excuse we grant ourselves for sleeping more on the weekends... we've been conditioned to feel bad for not feeling productive, so we need to grant ourselves special permission.
People typically have fewer kids as their society develops. Average age in the developed world is almost double of places like Africa. There is some evidence that slowing or decline in population is a reasonable…
because the wealth gap keeps increasing and we need to do more about it

I don't disagree. We should have a lot more streetcars and (everyone has their own priorities). Reducing traffic from the suburbs would be massive. There's also a huge amount of inequality in Boston proper due to the…

Can't speak for everyone, but the consensus here in Massachusetts feels like "I don't use the MBTA so I don't want to pay for it in taxes/tolls." (Surprise, we also have a massive congestion problem because our…
The Big Dig in Boston was originally estimated to cost $8 billion. People were upset about this. There were multiple problems along the way. It ultimately ended up costing $22 billion. People were also upset about this.…
This type of propaganda is typically misleading in that the sources and claimed intents are flat out lies (Advertising is regulated against this too). They're not saying "Russia wants you to vote for Trump" — they're…
Naivety coupled with a positive attitude isn't going to change it either. I'm saying if this is important to you, don't be complicit... because the current response to this isn't enough to stop it.
I agree with you. I wouldn't work there. All I'm saying is that people aren't making as big a deal of a deal as they should be if they want it to change. I'm also saying that people who are saying this will hurt Google…
I don't think anyone's using that excuse to justify working for Google, I think they're just saying that a small number of people quitting Google isn't nearly enough to stop them. Google employs at least 20k engineers.…
It's not big enough or fast to stop Google in China.
It's funny that you think that a foreign country can legally be sold ad space in the US for propaganda.
I understand where this comes from, but this line of reasoning tends to be very disingenuous. I don't blame businesses for taxing advantage of our tax system (I would too), but I don't think they should be able to. You…
Seriously, there are open Safari bugs that have existed in Apple's system for 6+ years. At least slap a wontfix on there.
I mean you're shooting yourself in the foot HARD if you do this because then people start actually hacking you instead of reporting it.
As much as I prefer MDN, W3Schools is fine now.
