Humanity's always had a problem with it's trash. Something I suppose we assume "space people" can deal with. My suggestion: a space catapult (using a spring, not a weight).

I believe "remove vocal" algorithms already implemented rely mostly on the pitch and tonal spectrum of the voice. For your example, what would be done when vocals sync up with rhythm instruments (straight 1/8's or 1/

My guess is that a database read/write isn't necessary with JWT, and so WebSockets flying by in a scaled system aren't impeded by this extra layer of complication.

Exactly. Parent is exaggerating. Also, highest tax bracket is 37% (2018). Yeah, I'm arguing about 1%, but that's also for individuals making over 500k, or couples making over 600k. 50k to 100k income raise bumps you up 2% in tax

Plenty of churches are growing. Plenty are closing doors. Now replace "church" with "business". This is how things work. I think we're only seeing your comment as a dig at religion for dig's sake.

This. They're no longer tied to the employer in hopes of good retirement, they can instead shop around for raises/skills. Which is more money which can be self-invested back into the self-pension/401k. In 401k matching situat

Death by 1000 cuts exists, though. Assume $120 annually for Netflix. A cost almost everyone assumes now, and most people have (58M subscribers in the US/~120M households in the US). $120 compounded yearly at an 8% rate over 18 years is

This brings up a great point that many people overlook: Inflation is hyper-specific to the consumer. If the price of bread ( and only the price of bread ) went up 10x in price, then only consumers of bread would really be affected by it.

From what I've read about it, it cuts (nearly) every day, so the clippings aren't long and are essentially "mulched" without using a specialized mulching blade.
