I have zero issues with my Pixel 6. It's an awesome phone and I really like it. However, I just bought it a few months ago, so maybe they fixed a lot of stuff.

How about immigrants make their countries better? There's no amount of meritocracy that can override billions of immigrants. It's why immigrants are coming to America. And how come Indian teams hire 99% Indians? They don't ca

Didn't California just ban non-electrical vehicles? If they don't have the grid capacity to support what exists now with a small spike...how will they support a hundred million EVs? EDIT: For everyone saying there's still 13

"The failures means it's working!" This seems to be a repeating talking point in regards to a number of issues these days. Which is unusual to me as this is could also be a way to justify poor policy.

For the past 500 million years (with animals) the climate has fluctuated massively both hotter and colder. The earth is currently in an very normal climate fluctuation. We're almost right at the mean of the past 500 million years. Huma

This is a very good point. As from, so to. All it takes is one person with a mutant super-intelligence gene to bring forth a new step for human kind or one scientific discovery on how to hyper evolve a new babies intelligence. And we have

I think we're limited by our genetics. There's a limit to our species intelligence. To a monkey an iPhone is just a rock. To humans the universe is equivalent to a piece of chorizo on a telescope.

It's arguable that a student who works full time but still can't pay the loan back is not frivolous and deserves to bankrupt out of the loan by the same yardstick you're applying to other situations. Youre bringing the argume
