Did Gab pick the hate groups, or did the hate groups pick Gab? What if you created a platform for expression, and it was infiltrated by a certain type of audience that's generally repulsive. Should we sink your project?

That's just a catch-all for "our house, our rules". Legal authority aside, it's political warfare and nothing more.

Was Gab actively supporting the hateful groups more than just giving them a speech platform? Because if not, this is truly terrifying. It seems like the "left" (whatever that means), with waves of ignorant support, is turning into

It's not difficult to work the logic out. If ##% of commuters exceed the limit to get to work, and they are forced to cease, then the time and highway space they save speeding would instead be added to the overall stress of traffic. Th

Agreed. I'm convinced that some laws are kept only so they can be used as leverage for police officers to legally interfere with your life/collect revenue. Artificially low speed limits are one I would consider.

Possibly, though I get the feeling yards are just too complex to design a universal tool for. Some lawns have multiple disconnected patches, how would the device travel across? If you leave a hose across the lawn, hopefully it wouldn't

Do you mean West Coast USA? I'm in Oregon and I'll say that fall foliage has been nice the last few days, but we also didn't get much rain this summer, and the last few winters have been lacking in moisture as well. My parent

This happens to me sometimes when I travel/move. I'll enter a search on Google Maps, and it will sometimes search where my previous settlement was. Like, I'll search for a Best Buy in my current location, but for some reason

Maybe it's the stigma of your resume? Could try knocking off some things. Maybe they want someone with a youthful spirit, to match other coworkers? Could try joining coworker antics?

Blame then for what? If something becomes too expensive, and it's irresponsible to fund it, then you take that thing out of the budget. Why would a library need additional money other than to pay utilities, staff wage, and new books? B

Sorry, by sustainable I meant with including whatever standard tax the library collected each year, minus the increase that apparently is needed. You could say the communities are shrinking, but you have to understand that they weren't

From an initial speculation on the subject, I don't believe we should tax robot workers, on the basis that it would be too difficult to logically create legislation for, especially considering the tech-knowledge of our legislators. How

Don't we spend quite a bit of money on safety nets in the US? I believe and often say that our government is inefficient with money. Maybe our programs could use a redesign?

That would require an entire team's worth of skill, preparation and work. This could be done with a few already existing medias, and a single person behind a computer.
