I just don't have words for this, it's so alien. I think a lot of historical precedent for keeping women out of certain things is rooted in the reality that women are the weakest link: If you go to war and lose too many women, y

Certain jobs involve making certain kinds of judgement calls. Acting like the person fulfilling the role is unquestionably immoral and at fault for the fact that people die when nations have conflicts is, at best, naïve. I was a hippie tree

Framing it as a question doesn't really change the problem with it. But, let's try to avoid getting bogged down here. Because there isn't any intent on my part to be dismissive of you. Your last (previous) remark makes someth

Sadly, the piece does not actually seem to model the behavior it advocates. I wish it were more well written. It is a really hard problem space to address well. But, I think a good place to start would be to acknowledge that with 7 billion

I was a secular homeschooler, so I forget that this distinction even needs to be made. Thank you for bringing it up. One subset of the homeschooling community is gifted kids who don't fit in well at school. They frequently have either

So I'd call Google a startup because they were radically reinventing the search model. Everyone seems to think they are radically reinventing something. The rest of the world agrees only if they grow big enough. I worked at Aflac
