2000 years ago Herodotus was talking and writing and nobody cared and his buddy was probably like, hey man remember that one guy from 300 years ago nobody knew who he was but look at him now! Everyone knows his name! And then some snarky ro

I think they mean not necessarily human beings but any advanced civilization.

Yet other times the lack of that word denotes a different perspective on that subject. Short term or long term happiness isn’t differentiated in the untied states. I don’t think of happiness in terms of long or short term. Just as a tempor

In one of the linked articles it shows one campsite who charged 5 dollars for a reservation but BAH was charging the campsite 6-8 dollars for the reservation. So they raised their prices to cover the more than 100% fee that the campsite had

Pinnacles park is like 60 dollars a night. I bet I could get a hotel nearby for cheaper. It doesn’t scale either for the season. I went to camp at a lake and recreation charged around 50 and the campsite was 20% full.

Well a hobbyist that took 4 years to develop his design so not just some dude who built something over a weekend. And by that logic a lot of countries could make ICBM nukes on their own - why don't we open source that technology since

The point isn't that it's different or the same, the point is that the very definition of the site is that all content and moderation pretty much is created by users, and that the users hate being forced to install yet another app

Being eaten alive by a tiger vs being boiled alive. Which would you prefer ? Like natural deaths are so humane compared to humans killing animals .

I agree. He could have just cut out the first paragraph and it would have been decent advice. Some people have health anxiety and suggesting something like this can trigger them to obsessively worry about whether this have this or not.

Oh he hit you with the, "do your own research." I also like that he posts that on this article about an 81 year old running 130kms. How many of his peers who did 30 minutes can barely walk but he's out there killing it.

If you look at the ultra runners finishing races by age you'll see a lot more in their 40s than their 20s.

I've been recovering from a hip injury and can't run more than 2-3 miles but I can walk. My real goal is to climb Denali among other peaks and I'm wondering how I can get into shape during this period with just walking. Do yo

I was looking for properties to rent in Italy and VRBO was insanely better than the airbnb prices, data, and options. I was really shocked because I always thought of VRBO as some sort of mostly-luxury option with limited properties availab

It felt like an ad for their new airbnb rooms he talked about.

Is there any more information you can provide so I can help my wife find a similar treatment?

What a cool parent you are. I’m trying to do things like this with my toddlers and it’s exciting to see what others are doing. Things like what you described are my absolute favorite reason to write code.

It's all subjective. I learned Spanish at the defense language institute and then used it extensively in South America and Mexico for work and travel and it opens so many doors. One thing is that I'm not hispanic so people see me

I think at that point it's a huge advantage but hopefully none of us have to be in that spot.

I mean those guys are drone nerds too. Maybe it won't be a ton of footage coming out of there but there will be some of those guys using these. Besides that, I used to fly aerial mapping missions over afghanistan and the same reason we

I worked on a program for a foreign military sale to a Middle East country and learned a lot like every foreign company had to pay someone to get ahead at all. It’s crazy to me this is news. It’s literally impossible to do business there wi

100% Agree. It's an entire article written about a celebrity or politician's tweet reacting to another celebrity or politician. It's an entire article that talks about some filler setting up the background, the actual embedde

If the point of this is to correct the disadvantages faced by ancestors which cascade through the generations then it should be determined by number of ancestors not a single qualifying ancestor. If I am 2% African American 98% white, and m

I believe that’s how people perceive it. The imbalance of power and the sense of injustice. But a lot of times those people conquered by the more powerful group just committed an atrocity to get that land. But it was more evenly matched? It

Maybe he means rote memorization and studying the answers to the test rather than someone who is actually building and tinkering and wanting to understand how things work and apply that knowledge.

The Portuguese owned it for what, 500 years? At what point does something become someone else's? Modern China was created through invasion and bloodshed by various political groups just like every single country in the world.

They also want a steady stream of cookies and iPad games and to be able to climb on high dangerous objects but maybe we shouldn’t indulge every want of a child.

When I wanted to leave Saudi Arabia and bring my dog I had brought there, it took about 15 signatures from Arabs in various offices around the ministry of agriculture. Everyone wants to be not management but upper management.
