They could, but have zero incentive to. Also, people just might not care, possibly endangering others. Don’t leave it up to the riders.

It’s easy to describe SF as far worse than a “poop city”, which is frankly overblown anyway. Maybe “the city where the rich are content to listen to people die on their doorstep”.

This can’t be a surprise to anyone. I frequently have a driver who is obviously different than the one pictured in the app. Some of the drivers I get have been in the country for a matter of weeks or even days, leaving me to wonder how Lyft

Thank you for providing a full explanation; I really should put more effort into explaining the harm I see.

That’s not conservation; that’s a large zoo.

Surely you can leverage your quality research to find better funding. If anything, situations like this should actually help your career—what better signal you’ve found a good vein of research?

Seriously, I enjoy my beanie babies the same as I did 20 years ago. They’re a lot of fun to throw around! I just never expected anything more.

You are hugely exaggerating the impact of wolves on anyone but farmers (there’s likely legit discussion to be had here) and elk hunters (who cares?).

> My point is, why "strictly forbidden to enter" if conservation areas are successful enough? Why allow humans in at all? We have plenty of room, and no need.

Yes, because left = gulag, right? Let’s just toss all the discussion out and give our cash to the nearest billionaire.

I find it disgusting that anyone would consider not obeying a cop’s orders to be a justification for an execution.

Pinterest should not be considered social. Most users have collections they use for themselves, but in my experience actual social interaction is incredibly rare. I think it’s better to view as having an excellent sharing platform that not

Discourse is a political function. And I sincerely wish our Green Party had ever gotten 3%. I’m not sure what you consider left but I’d hazard a guess we disagree based on your comment.

A) LaTeX is a library for laying out papers and common text memes. It’s not actually necessary at all. You would want to use TeX, which refers to the actual rendering engine. B) converting layout with css to Tex sounds like an absolute nigh

Sooner or later one of these vendors will start leaking without Theo’s grace and the embargo will protect the exploiters. I say axe the embargo and get into a habit of real time incident management.

Maybe. It’s easier for me to imagine corruption stopping if it’s tied to an election. Who votes over changing out the patent office? Nobody. What comes out of that office might as well be random in the best case, and openly corrupt in the

“AI” meaning what exactly? The real work of art here is convincing the buyer this algorithm is meaningful.
