Why would you build value into something that can be so arbitrarily changed though? Let's say I build my company "beyondfoobar" to the #1 company on the planet, and therefor make my website beyondfoobar.dev extremely valuable

I gotta gatekeep this. When did nerd and geek switch places? Since the 90s, geeks and nerds are two totally different things. Geek: a person who is knowledgeable about and obsessively interested in a particular subject, especially one that

The first female pharaoh was described in contemporary texts as being blonde. There are blonde mummies and archeologists tried to pass them off as having had their hair 'lightened' but that has recently been shown to be completely

This. A shelter first scheme is where taxes on legalized drugs should go. Gas tax funds the highways, drug taxes should fund mitigating drug's harmful effects on society first, with any other use secondary.

Many dudes I knew in prison on drug charges were ex-military recent vets who picked up a pill habit from their service related injuries/chronic pain. That pill habit needed to be fed and pills got harder to find leading to dealing&#x2F

I am sure you currently work with or have family members who secretly are addicts. Labeling them as a cost to society, disease spreading, and committing crime and justifying their death instead of talking about them as people in pain is def

Why is this being downvoted? I'd expand it to almost all pills are now just mexi's being called 'xyz' as well. Dudes are just ordering fentanyl analogs off the web from China, testing it on themselves so they don't

There are many states that offer some form of this. In my opinion New Mexico is the be the best for anonymity. Another contender is Wyoming. Also, do you really want your business to be out of Florida? Starting in 2024 you have to report yo

Both my parents worked at startups in the bay area from 1970s-2000s. None of them hit, though the IP those companies created currently makes just one of the businesses that bought it 2billion a year. I think they maybe got a few thousand fo

But that is a failure of middle management. Middle management's main job is to get the ones who actually do things the tools they need. That includes roadmaps that make sense, etc. That also includes showing upper management the value

You seem like a person I can relate to. I felt way you do too, only I had a wife and kids. Then I burnt it all down and went to prison by allowing escapes/shortcuts to become habits, habits replace actual living, and ultimately prison.

They gave a platform to Mearshimer and his 'my entire argument is built on the thesis that Putin has never lied (even though he has lied)'? Glad I've skipped reading it the last year.

No it doesn't. Simply asserting this statement does not make it so. Modern US culture is very much anti undocumented immigration, but that is something completely different. No one is pushing to cut the 1 million green cards issues a y

But we aren't talking about years, are we? We are talking about total numbers of immigrants allowed. What is the USA's ranking in total legal immigration?

The limit laws were put in place for the opposite reason of xenophobia and cruelty. It was to give immigrants from ALL countries a chance, and to provide a diverse group of new Americans. There is not going to ever be unlimited immigration,

I'd argue that the goals of manned space flight and meeting those goals are what put the USA on the path to be #1, so it seems to be to have something to do with manned flights.

Isn't that the goal? If we can get rid of scarcity in materials and energy then everyone's living standards can go up. If we can move metal smelting off world, pollution goes down at the same time. Am I ignorant to think that woul
