Yes, but only after they got the term "liberal" stolen away from them . Herbert Spencer complained about that as early as 1884.

You narrowly missed the opportunity to write "Kittenkrad", which sounds like the cutest form of transport yet conceived. Or, of course, "Kettenkrad", the german half-tracked motorcycle/tractor hybrid from WW2.

Precisely! Yet more proof that "Conservatism is progressivism driving the speed limit". And the speed limit seems to be rather generous in this case. But for some it's never high enough, they'd pull down all of Chesterto

I've not programmed a lot of JS, so this might be obvious for someone who did, but: Why does he first use Math.abs on the parameter and then type check the result of that? I'd think if you do an argument type check, you'd

Those are too small for a sizeable contingent of drones the size of small fighter jets. I was thinking along the lines of small aircraft carriers.

Well, yeah, you could do vertical landing or water landing. Both have precedent, but water landing probably implies craning the drones on board, which is slow. Vertical landing on the other hand might work well. You'd still need a flig

PSA: Before supplementing Vitamin D, do some research on calcification and Vitamin K2. Or you can trust a random person from the internet and supplement 40mcg K2 mk7 all-trans per every 1000IU of Vitamin D. That seems to be around the usual

Yes, both soft tissue and vascular calcification. Typically you should supplement around 40ug of K2 (mk7 all-trans, these details seem to matter!) for every 1000IU of D3.
