I would not characterize breakup depression as withdrawal.

Actually you made it sound pretty attractive. It's only $160 billion (plus a few for yearly maintenance why not) to get California entirely on renewable energy. That's amazing and gives me hope.

That's very expensive compared to small claims court. I doubt they'd use that clause.

Correct; my apologies.

Great find; I never would have realized this otherwise. Ironically this is more accurate than my statement about the current president!

I think the person above me was. :) I agree. photos have been considered proof for a long time, and this was difficult to communicate before photoshop, just like DNA evidence and cell phone tower records had massive, unjustified weight in U

I honestly doubt that many people on this forum hold that opinion. I really hope not, anyway. I also haven't heard any good conversations about race that deny it. If you accept the existence of racism, you should accept the evident exi

Yup. Realistically that's your best chance. Dunno about outside the US though.

Trust has value, too. Just imagine how much money they'd make if they weren't known for being a terrible place to sell OR buy.

Race is not a bogus concept. It may be cultural but it's still real. Offshore is not a race. That's just xenophobia.

Gonna guess that's a bad message for a password length violation or something else. Not that it's much better. Is it so hard to allow 50 character passwords?

My mistake, I didn't realize that meaning of immigrant. Nonetheless, I think my point stands, perhaps even stronger.

They're already a force to be reckoned with. How do you compete against a company that might as well burn cash in the streets? The rich are buying the future on the backs of the working class. When uber goes under, the jobs won't

This is true. But compare it to other countries: even where immigration is more relaxed, the cultural acceptance of foreign culture is greater in the US than most places. The only place I might prefer to be as a foreigner would be Canada.

I was referring to Obama Sr, who was born in Kenya.

Minorities are not treated like foreigners or alien.

You mean how the child of an immigrant is President?

A win for SV is a loss for the rest of the world. Don't encourage this. SV is already encouraging bright people to sell ads instead of improving the world.

I mean this only makes sense if it's affordable for the rider, driver, and Uber. There's simply no evidence this is even likely: only the rider benefits. Which is enough to destroy existing taxi companies. What would have been gre

It's impossible whether to tell if it'd be better if their drivers sucked less. It's certainly a massive barrier to Linux being usable.

This was really well explained; thank you.

Well, in the English world, bread has roughly the same definition; people mostly argue about whether it includes a leavening agent or not. (I'm of the opinion it shouldn't require a leavening agent). If you handed someone a generi

True. But—to my understanding—the rice to which you're referring is soaked with lentils, not ground into a flour, and you aren't going to find ANY gluten in rice (which gives bread its characteristic texture with wheat, barley, oa

Why does this metric matter so much to so many people? Why not quality of life?

Newtonian laws are excellent for intuition about human-scale problems. What do we gain from modeling GR that way?
