We could just stop having babies except deliberately to replace accidental deaths. I’d you are immortal then why worry about not having children, over a long enough timeline eventually your turn in the queue will come. But that’s just philo

I think they have a blanket no celebrities or real living people policy for their engine. I think that’s fine since they don’t want to be called out for helping produce defamatory content. They just want to avoid bad PR. That’s sound safe.

If not wanting to see people die is an indication of psychological problems then I am okay with being counted in that number. I aleady had one parent die before their time, and would love to not experience that again. I don't think we

As a thought experiment, if we want to use voluntary inaction to prevent bad ends, we have to go the distance. Standing alone won’t work , because companies can raise their rates until someone takes up the offer or they can lower their stan

It worked well enough for Ronald Reagan who believed he was protected from assassination by psychic powers, and had Alzheimer’s while in office. A nation is stronger than just the leader. Even in the age of kings, subordinates aristocrats w

No because drivers use multiple apps at once. So they are willing to try out new apps for the chance of extra money. Consumers switch because prices are low since the rideshare company is artificially subsidized.

If it’s a one time sale then it doesn’t matter the size of the company selling. If it’s a SaaS but for a commodity service then it similarly doesn’t matter who is selling it, since there are other partners to work with if the one man shop g

Historical deployments would be useful to me because our app rarely has database schema changes in the hot path. Most of our effort is in user experience and post processing. It would be nice to compare the experience of todays version with

Not a follower of US politics, so this might be simple ignorance, but I’m not sure what the democrats represent. Obama for instance didn’t seem to run a campaign on the virtue of big government and socialism. As someone who lives in a socia

No they're not trying to 'rape' refugees. They're trying to "get in their pants". There's hundreds of scenarios where that is entirely consensual (e.g. people seeking sex for comfort, people using sex to g

Yes! But with Jquery you had to manually separate out the interactive elements ship those to the client. With newer frameworks (Svelte, Fresh), the framework itself automatically parses out the interactive elements and ships them. There&#

Hundreds of humans who can all work for a single individual or organization. Without any additional rules, adding more people to supervise is simply security theater. Note, I am not a general proponent of electronic voting machines either.

In this case it looks like you could bribe the volunteers to simply give ballots without checking for ID, then bribe the overseers to validate the fraud. So long as the people who’s votes you are stealing don’t come in, then you are safe. T

I vote but I don’t vote in every single election that I can due to other obligations. Their fraud used the voter information of real people who they expect to simply not come to the polling station. It’s hard to catch. If you notice double

Is Japan really what unusual? From what I hear the building codes are uniform so the spec for high density housing is similar to that of a single family home. If builders in Canada have to build high density housing to a more costly specifi

Reddit is just a forum with a non chronological sort. The entirety of the voting code can be a one liner. Adding upvote buttons is also a one liner. It’s pretty easy to do the Reddit MVP but all the stuff they added later on is a major p

I do agree that it can be used to disenfranchise people, however it’s unavoidable to create legitimacy. If we didn’t have a minor education requirement (minor because high school is free and is seen as the basic education that everyone has)

The high school degree is necessary to ensure the person can understand the choices presented to them. Otherwise they will just be snowed by experts who claim one thing or the other. The lack of a criminal record is necessary won’t just com

A prisoner sleeping with a guard is an obvious abuse of power… if they remain imprisoned. I’d not know what to make of it though if the prisoner was freed though. It’s like bribing a cop to destroy evidence of wrong doing, rather than bein

From talking with the abode poster I think the problem is that my doctors room doesn’t look fancy, not that my mechanics office looks too nice.
