I'm pretty sure software is a major factor. My Android phone is currently 5 years old and never done anything like that before. Neither have any of my Android phones in the past. If this is some law of physics, then why did it only h

That sounds terrible. I wouldn't know though because I have never had an Android phone do anything like that.

My theory is that the vaccines are not stopping transmission, just reducing the effects -- enough that people don't even know they are carriers. Then we re-opened everything and vaccinated (and others) stopped wearing masks. So in eff

I appreciate this comment deeply. I am getting tired of the close-mindedness of people that stems from unjustified ego. There is a culture today of making sure people know how "wrong" they are.

I feel like "self control" isn't a helpful framework to describe what is happening. It seems like technology is just exploiting instinctive ways we interact with the world and learn. This matters because it is not an individu

If you want to nationalize an industry, why not make that argument?

Why can't just take the cultural lessons of the past for what they are and not believe them literally or completely dismiss them?

If privacy was a selling point to buy Apple, then it will be a selling point to buy a competitor. Who knows how much it will matter in the end? But it is hard to argue it doesn't matter.

Every time I look at a therapist while seeking treatment, they always put a disclaimer on their insurance page that a diagnosis is required to be paid for claims. Maybe it's just my state.

> the fact that heavy daily marijuana usage is a net negative for mental health citation required. There is no comparison because you are speaking in anecdotes, not data. Even if it is a "net negative" is it a bigger net negati

That's not my question. My question is how much easier can it be? I'm just not sure what you are complaining about. Give me an example of a more accessible drug than marijuana.

How much easier can it be than literally growing from a plant?

Did you ever compare the side effects of marijuana to the popular antidepressant, antianxiety and ADHD medications being given to children? > There is a growing mistrust of pharmaceutical companies and mainstream psychiatry that mirrors

The mental health implications are also difficult to quantify. I would also guess most people who develop alcohol addiction did not understand their risk factors when they first started drinking.

I'm not trying to take sides, but electric cars seem vastly simpler from a mechanical perspective. I'm sure they have complicated electronics, but most modern cars do as well and those aren't components people typically work

Sounds like a great benefit. I would free up so much time in my day.

Sometimes I also misspell words out of a misguided sense of solidarity. It's like having a conversation and someone keeps mispronouncing a word. Do you just imitate what they are saying and avoid correcting them or do you tell them th

Any of those skills can be picked up at basically any job, further they require no foundational skills to learn. That's why the pay is low, because the skill set is widely accessible. I'm not sure why people insist that these kin

That would only be true if labor were 100% of the input costs.

That's not necessarily true. Someone small will not rely on Twitch for their income and while the $100 is nice, they won't get some crazy special treatment. It's still just $100.

The average age is around 20 and I doubt they are training to the most competitive levels in just a year or two. > China's most famous e-sports player, Jian Zihao, has officially retired from gaming aged 23, citing ill-health. >
