Exactly. If no domain specific skills are needed and a general education is good enough, then a high school diploma should have sufficed anyway.

Correct -- and no country with a higher population is higher ranked. Or even close, really.

Guns are a constitutional right and a crucial part of self-defense. Not sure what the issue is to you. >What's the difference? One is access, one is privacy. Very different things. Why conflate them.

That's simply factually wrong. The US has much better press freedoms, freedom of speech and gun ownership rights than any other large country. It has nothing to do with an echo chamber. The laws are objectively very different. Compari

Selective policy enforcement like this are exactly why being a common carrier makes more sense.

I was thinking the same thing, "Oh no! My child is learning how to negotiate instead of blindly following authority, the horror!" What's even sadder to me though, is that blindly following authority does work extremely well f

>Her article is about how we've voluntarily given private companies our private data with no control of how it is used, and that this information is used to power algorithms that affect our lives in ways we can't predict. Which

It's ironic regardless. Whether I value the military's trust or not doesn't enter into it. Her original intention, which has gotten somewhat lost in all this controversy, was to protect atheist groups in Middle Eastern count

Judging and quantifying demand is not the same thing as materialism.

She's basically proving her own point. It's like a self-fulfilling prophecy. "Don't let anyone get your private data or it'll be leaked or mishandled -- trust me I know all about mishandling privileged data."

The entire article is about society putting too much trust in computer systems. So yes, it is about trust. Beyond that, I was answering a question about subtext, not discussing the article directly.

How would you know my opinion on it?

She was placed in a position of trust to watch over classified data, and massively breached that trust. And was imprisoned for it, and in fact would still be in prison had the sentence not been commuted. Agree or disagree with her actions

Living in those jurisdictions would make me anxious then. ;p

And you're someone with some SV credibility and savviness, imaging what it's like for a typical scrub.

Much more than YouTube sold for, total acquisition price. Which I thought was incredible at the time (and still do, considering how difficult is has been for Google to monetize, it seems.) I think WhatsApp was just overvalued, personally.

My personal fantasy always has me going underground for about 10 years, then coming out once any violent purges are over, well-rested and ready to repopulate. Resilient, like a cockroach. I always think that particularly when I watch &quot

You should have read the draft of this, instead of the people who did.

Until these things are flagged upon inspection (and they would) I'd take it with a big grain of salt.

Not really. I believe the journalist did sign a document that she knew where the emergency exits were, and the only "damning" thing she found on-site was an unclean bathroom and generally difficult work. This whole thing seems li

I don't know, I find that letter pretty convincing actually. They seem pissed, but they also make a lot of valid points.

Trespassing is an "implicit threat" that justifies initiation of violence to you? That's fine if they want to attack anyone they perceive as being intruders. But once they do, retaliation is fair game as well. Live by the s

What if they did expect a response, and then simply answered violence with violence? Typically the person considered to be at fault is the initiator of violence.

Why does the concept of "ancestral property" somehow suddenly make violence acceptable to you. If the bank or government forecloses on my mother's house, I can shoot whoever comes to take ownership?

IMO it's neuronal autophagy failing. Plaques accumulating and PH being thrown off are symptoms of that.

This seems like an extremely ignorant comment to me. There is a ton of black culture in the South that is uniquely American.
