The point is that you _can_ buy a boat. That's freedom. That's what people love. Some realize, correctly, that it won't make them happy. What people love about America is the freedom to choose. That's the philosophy that

There's a lot to unpack here. In my opinion (and observation), the majority of the population worldwide wants a boat. Whether it's attainable or socially acceptable depends on where you live. In America it is attainable and mostly

> It has to do with the American exceptionalism thinking. That Americans are special and therefore more entitled to over consume. This is quite a leap, and you're giving people too much credit for "consumption as a guiding prin

Oh God. I hadn't considered that windows sysadmins are likely the most prolific ChatGPT scripters. If I was still one, given the state of the MS docs, I would be guilty for sure.

I mean, building applications that are maintainable, will fail gracefully, and keeps costs low, has all the same needs as any classic engineering discipline. You could spend just as much time designing a well thought out CLI as it could tak

He treats ideas like cattle, not pets. Throws out a lot of seeds and sees if they take root. It creates a lot of havoc because his detractor's analysts have to write a researched article about every seed. Meanwhile he's always got

The corporations _are_ end-users. They're just using a project to make adoption of their platform easier. Just because a user passes on the benefit of their usage to more than a single human doesn't mean they're not a user.

I think we've promoted little else besides de-industrialized degrees. That's why it's going to be so hard to ramp up again. How many kids think it's cool to get a textile engineering or materials science degree vs market

I'm reaching here but.... Apple has already "committed" to investing in US manufacturing. Also, many companies have committed to AI investments on US soil which would be heavily NVIDIA dependent. Could be a justification for

To be fair...the other side was just as ferocious when someone postulated that the election was rigged, or that COVID couldn't be stopped by masks. You're essentially asking for conservatives to be the bigger person and stop the

The problem is that the people who aren't contributing forget who is actually contributing and start tearing down the system because they have no clue how the world works anymore.

China has done that by ruling internally with an iron fist and ruling externally with financial influence. The U.S. is actually trying a play from the same playbook by abstaining from deploying troops. When was the last time you saw China g

So what _are_ they supposed to do about the children? The alternative (doing nothing) is not good. Or do you think that government should shrink their responsibilities and everyone should watch out for their own kids?
