>You shouldn't judge people by the groups they happen to belong to. And yet, in this country we did just that for hundreds of years. You don't just wave your hand and erase that legacy. We are in a transitional period that will

I could be wrong, but my understanding is that people were generally pretty optimistic in the early 1900s (before WW1 obviously). Everyday applications for electricity were rapidly changing daily life for people.

It's a question of scale. There aren't 7 billion beavers. If there were only 300 million humans, we wouldn't be having these issues.

Wow, I had this exact thought the other day. I loaded the page, and just sat there and watched this animation on the screen. "What is it doing" was all I could think. All I need it to do is load the subject line of the first howev

To some degree, I do appreciate the fact that it was shut down just to illustrate the fact that all of these sites and services are not "real" and could disappear at any time. I think it is good that people at least keep this fact

People at the beginning of the 20th century were incredibly optimistic, only to be hit with loss of life on an unprecedented level in world wars. Things can improve in some ways and get worse in others. The climate of the planet that our gr

On a darker note, one could almost see it as a form of mercy that none of the other species survived into the era of civilizations. Given our willingness to enslave other humans, I can only imagine what would have been done with "lesse

Yes, and it will make the Syrian refugee crisis look like a joke in comparison. There will be extreme backlash from the right and even center depending on the volume of migrants. It will not be pretty.

I can only share my experiences from playing open world MMOs with perma-death PVP. You can have 10 positive interactions with other players, but it only takes one bad interaction for your character to end up dead and gone. Immediately ident

To some degree, it is the willingness to "know your place" in human history. No one in ancient Greece could have discovered cosmic background radiation or observed that all galaxies exhibit redshift, which would have provided evid

It is depressing to hear from people in the comments that they think a viable solution is to just abandon entire regions of the country. Yes, let's just pack everyone into NY, SF, LA, and Chicago.
