I agree that "literal moron" is inflammatory. I definitely would not trust the communication skills of the average software engineer to navigate a situation where a child's life is potentially at stake either! This is suppose

In the context of democracy, size is everything . Like, by definition. If the majority of Americans want guns, then you're never going to get a super-majority to vote to take guns away. > Big tech lobbies for what serves its intere

If the cops were truly worried about the kids safety, they would have gone to Dunkin with them and made it into a positive experience. Instead, the cops left the children who were supposedly in mortal peril to go harass the parents.

The NRA has 5 million members. Nearly half of American households have a gun. You can't just waive this off as "muh lobbying". Americans like their guns. Gun owners don't care if sig sauer loses a buck. They care about t

And yet it hasn't. The fact that the second amendment could be removed, but hasn't, is what gives it it's legitimacy.

You're just playing word games. If the goal is "mastery of material", then studying is "practicing" that goal and exams are a measure of how well you attained that goal. But lets not get bogged down in the weeds. OP

This is an easily falsifiable theory. If practice is the single most important factor, then e.g. exam scores should be a function of time spent studying, and not of the test taker. I know people from college that worked a lot harder than me

My experience is the opposite. My company gave me an M1 mac that I leave plugged while I work. It is at 100% when I shut it down Friday afternoon, and its at around 40% when I boot it up on Monday morning. I suspect the battery is defective

Name a single city in walking distance to a forest. And no, Central Park is not a forest. I have acres of woods _in my backyard_. There are also no homeless people sleeping on the benches.

This is a very simplistic view. Less people per unit land also means less cars per unit land. Depending on how the roads are designed, you can get a spread out neighborhood with no traffic on your street. I grew up on a cul-de-sac. There we

The pro-density crowd cannot comprehend wanting to live in a quiet, safe, uncrowded town. They say the only possible motivations are money and racism.

Hm, in the US we have energy labels on appliances like [1] that just tells you how much energy it will likely use. When shopping for a fridge, you can directly compare different models. It even shows the average cost of other similar produc

Why can't we just use numbers? "This house in this climate will use about X kwh per year for heating/cooling". That's what appliances do. No messing with scales and tiers and having to constantly re-balance. It&#x27

Yeah, and they adopt batteries with all the same emotional attachment and they have for green energy. They consider a discussion of the problems with current battery tech as an attack on green energy itself. It's not productive.

Japan has no domestic oil, something they have been keenly aware of since WW2. I think they wanted Hydrogen to be the future so badly because it would remove that disadvantage. Now Japan has to import the batteries, and the fossil fuels to
