I know Shkreli. He's a great kid. Much better than most pharma execs, believe me. This "bad guy" image is all illusion. He had to take the fall for the real nasty people, the real ruthless operators who know how to politick.

Yes, I believe undergrads(!) cover this in Honors Advanced Truth Tables at UChicago.

The Github Issue is worse. You don't handle schizophrenics by being rude to them. Props to @tcrowe for the sound dissent.

These views are more sympathetic in the absence of potable water plumbing.

I have a fairly strong suspicion this is just a Yale thing.

It objectively makes you weird. Sex itself is literally slimey and gross but also very pleasant.

You're halfway to an important insight, but your partisanism is blinding.

I carry an open disdain for lawyers and their equivocal notion of "argument". You understood me; my language and its assertion are sound. You don't want to go into any of those reasons people waive a jury, right?

I led with substantive comments. The greater issue is nerds live in an overly comfortable fantasy world, and it's painful to acknowledge the true nature of the power structures we inhabit and are subject to, in all their ugliness. Much

A. You're innocent. B. You're guilty. Uh, this is the essential question to begin with. The judge doesn't decide this unless you're in clown court.

(1) is obviously true. Nobody can dispute this in good faith, even if the jurisprudence is hard to settle among bad actors. Prosecutors are simply upset technology makes the 5th powerful. (2) is obviously false. You can't get to it wit

My most important passphrases are very complicated, and I lose the ability to reproduce them from muscle memory (the only place they exist) after a few days of non-use. How can you prove passphrases are remembered?

Alleged crime. And this is braindead simple application of the Fifth Amendment. The courts are a joke.

Me too, except the venue your personal household and the representation in the heart of your wife, whom I consider an attractive upgrade to mine. Or are there conditions here you're omitting that distinguish heroism from banditry? I sa

In this situation one can use her high IQ to ham her IQ test.

I grew up in a poor, predominantly black inner-city. I and everyone I knew had an ID card, if not just to buy alcohol. People who don't participate in our society enough to acquire basic documentation required for not living on the str

No, it isn't. However, let's assume it is. If you don't pay your (separate and presumably uncontroversial) federal taxes, you become a felon and legally disenfranchised. It becomes clear this is all a minor accounting detail.

It's about keeping non-citizens who don't have the right to vote from voting. Not implementing these laws diminishes the enfranchised.

There's no such thing as an IQ too high. This is always some other problem like anxiety.

This is a great comment, and it's a shame you've been downvoted.

This article is profoundly unconvincing, and its thesis rather idiotic (I use this sharp term only to honor the fallen warriors of many Just wars).

There is a pro-bono organization called SIMP (Statutory Implications for Male Predators) dedicated to taking on these cases specifically where young women have been tricked into working in pornography without proper instruction and disclosu

He spent only 2 years as a Whig before exiting politics. He returned as a Republican until his assassination over a decade later. (Granted, by sleight of hand he did change the name of his Republican party for a year. Perhaps the trickery

I was being facetious; it appears it is your theory of mind which is lacking. Of course, this is no grave fault of yours. Noticing these subtle tricks takes special acuity. After a few dozen more Google queries and even examination of sever

I once had sex with a married woman. When her husband found out she had met up with me, she assured him that she "didn't even kiss" me, which was true (I refused this particular intimacy but enjoyed many others). Was she lyin

It's literally the same party. Policy has evolved for this dramatically different world, but its ideological foundations are still closer to its heritage than any real alternative.

Yes, I found it very deceptive as well. I have no idea why you're being downvoted.

I too am alarmed by these spooky disinformation campaigns. I just googled "what party was abraham lincoln in" and a big box popped up at the top saying "National Union Party". I've never even heard of this party. I

This fragility does not make you a lesser person; I extend my hand to you as an equal, my brother. I hope you do the same when I am misguided or weakened in any manner myself.
