This assumes we're simulated from a universe with identical laws and finitude, which I would never even consider.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who bothered reading these links. I can only assume earlier posters are blinded by partisanship. Anything even tangentially related to politics requires a good degree of skepticism in the face of bias

You do realize the economy came to a halt with everybody isolated in quarentines? I think we have to sacrifice air quality for the sake of progress for now.

This should be the only post in the thread. I've been "homeles" as both a child and an adult and it's impossible for a "normal" person to stay homeless. The only people who stay homeless do so because of menta

Right? There are so many means to quick and painless suicide. Everyone talking about a "right to die" demanding government legislation makes no sense to me.

As someone who works in healthcare, I don't disagree with the entire sentiment here, with the exception of screening. In my opinion, it would be simpler and more cost effective to monitor cancerous and precancerous indicators rather th

We have a checklist system. Depending on which files are on your commit or which database objects are modified, you're presented with a checklist specific to the things you're changing. When something goes really wrong, the outcom

This is interesting, I'd have expected it to be much higher. I know that the Air Force Space Command employed more people than NASA, which has a $20B+ budget. I assume more is massaged in elsewhere.

This is an obvious truth to anyone with children. Women have to carry, birth, and recover from having a baby plus raise/feed them in the first 1-2 years. There are so many biological factors here that objectively make women better pr

"where there's a will, there's a way." Like I said, these problems are hypothetical and immaterial. If people were struggling to drink clean water or get food, they'll prioritize it with their time and money to solv

Don't make assumptions. I have both an electric car and a 7kw solar system on my home. Not because I'm saving the world or smelling my own farts, but because it makes economic sense. That is the reason, the only reason, climate ch

I expect climate change will look more like Y2K than the black plague. If anything the increase in precipitation, higher temperatures, longer growing season and CO2 concentration will help humanity more than it hurts with mass afforrestatio

I can only read so much far-left death cult nonsense before rolling my eyes and closing the tab. How many cherry picked stats can you fit in one article? Look at the number of people removed from extreme poverty. Look at the price cliff sol

I look forward to laughing at this list a decade from now.

"The snowflake on vscode insiders is very offensive to me, as people with delicate sensibilities are typically referred to as "snowflakes" as an insult. This is very politcal and has cost many Jews their lives, or something.

Is there anything wrong with this? If a job can't provide for a person at some (philosophically debatable) level, it's not a job worth doing, free market be damned. We could take this to a logical extreme and think of all the jo

You know that feeling when you wake up from a weird dream? Reading this gave me that feeling.

Say what you will about abortion, but this is giving me some serious 1984 newspeak vibes.

The Art of Loving was positively one of the worst books I have ever read. He was an unmarried, childless Atheist that wrote a book about love. As a religious, married man with children, his ideas on loving God, a spouse, and your children

Just adding on to this. The government funded research labs and DoD contractors I've had offers from have been seriously sad, which makes me concerned on the quality of their missions, personally. Also it's frustrating because I

Climate change is bad, because it could reduce the number of human lives. Therefore, we will reduce the number of human lives to combat climate change.

Ah, that certainly explains it. I'm still highly skeptical of how widespread this will ever be, since electric cars will become even more compelling as electricity costs decrease, but you've convinced me to not dismiss this comple

What? They compete today with significantly lower fuel cost. You see 100+ mpge on every electric car I know of today, you're looking at half-1/3 the per mile cost in an electric car. That more than makes up for the higher upfron

I expect I'll see new battery powered aircraft before I see today's aircraft powered by kerosene synthesized from water and carbon dioxide in the air. And we'll probably see more rail/car before then since the massive c
