What part of attempting to block a Constitutionally mandated process through the use of force is not a terrorist act?

You say this like its the first time Americans have had to learn to live with having lost a federal election. Half the country is disappointed every four years. Starting to make concessions to terrorists because they got really upset after

Were they enforcing arbitrary curfews and trying to incite their own police riots or defending VIPs? Police seem to choose to escalate only when faced with certain groups.

Armed terrorists in MI invaded the state Capitol in May, before the murder of George Floyd. Police there took a similar hands off strategy. Are you being facetious?

Access to the Capitol isn't very restricted. People who are handling top secret information know that very well; that said, plenty of personally compromising information can usually be found on any given personal computer.

They have a public policy written down somewhere, but I'd wager the reasoning is more "we're not going to antagonize individuals who have a direct impact on our bottom line through legislation/prosecution." He lost

The "why can they" I can't really address, but the "why do they" is interesting: state AGs (including TX, who brought the suit) are occasionally directly elected positions, and hence tend to feel more political pres

I hope we get a sequel to Schreier's Anthem article for this game [he now works for Bloomberg]. Many repeating patterns. https://kotaku.com/how-biowares-anthem-went-wrong-1833731964

Nope! Never said it did. EDIT: Literally just picked a random (that I thought would fit in the space I had--didn't want to go over-long) passage from the Freedman's interviews section of the book.

Because a proportion of America has been poorly educated, it's inappropriate to interrogate the primary sources slaves left behind? I don't follow. Yeah, obviously we need to fix the appalling state of our Civil War and slavery hi

Specifically slavery was more varied than "American slavery as we understand it today." The passage I quoted is different, in that it departs from the traditional model of plantation based, field labor slavery. It is still reprehe

I think the way the researchers might phrase it is "the cops are doing this activity, I might as well watch them." Hell, from the article: "according to a new study set to be published on Tuesday by the Institute for Justice,

I have very little frame of reference for other people's technical skills when they enter the profession since I'm entirely self-taught and still move dirt for a living. Thank you for sharing that story, it drove me to try my hand

Often in histories of slavery, the slaves don't speak. If you want to hear their voices, read "Slave Testimony," edited by John Blassingame. It's stunning in length and detail. Not all suffered the same slavery we know t

I seem to recall a talk given at one point that demonstrated a scheme that would reverse engineer functions out of whole cloth based only on docstrings and doctests, but of course I can't find it now.

You can actually quantify the specific impact that loss of shoreline has on tourism, fishing etc.

Another by Shaw, one might say in the startup spirit: "“The reasonable man adapts himself to the world: the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.”

You did your very best to not address anything I said. The fact that we live in sensational times does not make factual descriptions of events sensationalized. This is not normal.

This is typical? Out of curiosity, how young are you? If you got an advanced degree, was it in STEM? I'm amazed you can say that. EDIT: to be clear, the Electoral College meets today, some states have to meet in secret because of threa

Some people in the art world are pushing this as well. Art by female artists tends to be undervalued, and it's already going up. There's an interesting combination of hype building and equity appeals -- of course who's buying

I must admit I'm a little stymied by your claim that " the Democrats did their absolute best to cancel the results of the 2016 election." Their actions -- if they do indeed rise to the level of "cancel[ing] the results o

So, if someone says they want to be a tyrant and are unsuccessful, no one should talk about how the wannabe tried in the first place? I don't understand, because to me, the fact that we can speak out in the first place and make noise a
