A spider might have up to 1000 babies of which only a small percentage survive. Are the unlucky hundreds of spiderlings that perish supposed to live?

Email isn't perfect but is widely used and widely useful. If the world naturally converged to a standard protocol based on blockchain that alone would be worth it.

Are you going down the rabbit-hole of every shadowbanned user you find, or just investigating dead posts that you don't think should be dead? It's possible your sample is experiencing selection bias. When I find users I think ar

I turned my life around in my late 30s, it can be done. At your age, and probably for another decade, a lot of women in your dating range will be feeling biological pressure to have children, so this is still on the table. Maybe look for a

I read with showdead on and often traverse a user's post history when I've determined that they've been shadowbanned. In almost all cases the root activity that caused the ban was not an unpopular view, but rather a series of

My pet theory is that the cybertuck is just an excuse to start prototyping a future martian ground transport, in which case atmospheric drag may be less of a concern.

When my car got T-boned at 60mph and rolled over two times I definitely experienced this slowing of time. I recalled the random factoid that people instinctively stiffen up during car accidents and tend to break their legs so I grabbed tigh

From my laymen's perspective it seems most people lose out during a recession, across the socioeconomic spectrum. I think those who do manage to profit, despite what some of them may tell you, simply got lucky. For what it's worth

I don't know. When I was younger and worked menial jobs and lived in crappy places it was pretty easy for me to surf through two recessions by just adapting to where I was (true, I did live in a car for two months in 2008). Now I have

Or convert Roths back into regular IRAs after a point. I agree it's fixable and I think it ought to be fixed. I'm not so concerned about tax shenanigans that produce beneficial charity as a byproduct.
