I suggest we’ve already now passed what shall be dubbed the jschoe test ;)

Seems pretty clear to me - Trump is trying to cut costs for our government. He sees we’re spending all that money on forecasting and data that everyone else uses for free, and gets paid for it. Therefore, that data is worth something and th

So someone that was, say, hired to make a website for the Pentagon can’t go and have a meeting there? Especially if they’re foreign born?

They also show them busy cleaning a lot, which is like half of parenthood at that age.

I’m getting back into development after being a photographer for the last 10 years and after reading your comment I thought “maybe I should apply at a bank…”

That’s not why they cull flocks once one gets it. They cull the flocks because all of those birds will be dead in days anyways.

I’ve been trying since release with stock notifications and have barely had the chance to even try to add one to a cart.

They're cheaper because of price controls on medications and salaries. That's just straight up not going to happen in the US. We could have easily tackled medication prices by tying them to an average of some select other countri

I think the problem is a lot of people need very occasional image manipulation. Back when I was a photographer, I could have easily paid 5x more for my Photoshop subscription and it would have been worth it. Now that I’m not, the $10 a mont

Oh, come on. Are people still using the "stutter" excuse? Go look up a video of him from 2000 or whatever. His stutter sure did get worse! The story of cognitive decline was pushed because it was true. That's why he basic

That article makes awful conclusions. Biden’s age was a bigger factor because it was absolutely clear he was in rapid cognitive decline. No doubt it’s also happened to Trump at his age (as it does to everyone), but Biden essentially hid fro

Hold on. That bill contained the PBM stuff, but that doesn’t mean he was wrong about it being full of pork - though I don’t know one way or the other. They certainly could have just done the PBM reforms in a separate bill instead of shoving

And you think a government run system would be more efficient? It’s still going to have people in each side verifying claims, preauthorizing stuff, etc. To do otherwise invites massive fraud.

That doesn’t matter when it’s subsidized by the government. When people talk for a public option all they’re really talking about is one option, because no company would be able to compete.

To be fair, it could be a matter of national security if AGI does ever happen. You'd very much want your country to be the first.

I think with a big enough governmental and cultural push, you could. Something like the white feather campaign, or the various “help the war by doing x” things that happened in WW2. Honestly, they should really make it a priority. The awar

There were quite a few Democrats that encouraged the protests that turned into riots during the George Floyd stuff. That's literally exactly the same as Trump. He encouraged a protest, but literally told them to peacefully protest, ju

Damn, I was only abused by my sister and had a traumatic brain injury as a teenager. I guess that just gets me a...HP laptop? No thanks!

Hey, it’s me - your new friend. I too am without a MacBook. Woe.

I’d think that low income people would spend a larger proportion of their money on stuff made primarily in the US - food being the biggest thing. Clothing aside, most things that we get internationally are wants, not needs…and clothing itse

Ah, but it's not so simple. Here's part of the majority opinion: "Chinese persons, born out of the United States, remaining subjects of the Emperor of China, and not having become citizens of the United States, are entitled

There absolutely have been twin studies that showed IQ (and therefore income) is largely heritable.

That amendment has never been tested in the grounds that the Trump administration is. It certainly wasn’t intended for the currently used purpose and will very much come down to “and subject to the jurisdiction thereof,” which anyone short

You also get a lesser offense killing someone accidentally as opposed to a premeditated murder. There’s a difference between an intentional act, an accident, and an accident due to extreme neglect and our laws reflect that.

Trump actually outlines that in the speech before the riot, although he does it in such a meandering Trump-y way that it's hard to parse. He wanted Pence to send it back to the states to have a better look at things, although that wou

Sure, it obviously wasn't great and obviously Trump handled it horribly. I'm just a little sick of people deliberately ignoring facts because it suits them politically. Even Trump claiming the election was stolen wasn't new.

Typical cage-free chickens are almost as cramped, they're just not (cruelly) confined to a cage. They're still sharing the same air. If one bird gets it in either situation the whole flock will need to be culled, as they're

I'm in a major turkey producing area and my wife worked for a national turkey producing company for 10 years. In 2015 it was all anyone heard about around here for months. Granted, I don't know much about chickens, but a lot of t

I'm in a turkey producing area - one of the largest in the country. What helped massively in 2015 was to simply put fine netting over the windows to the turkey barns, keeping other birds and at least some of their excrement out. This

Because "fight" can only ever be used to mean a physical altercation? More or less right after the "fight like hell" part of his speech: "So we're going to, we're going to walk down Pennsylvania Avenue. I
