> So whether communism is a good idea or not remains to be seen. You are being too charitable. There is no shortage of data on communism after the last century. The results are so unequivocally bad across the board, you have to be ignora

In general I agree with you. Simply taxing things with negative externalities enough to cover the true cost would simply and conclusively fix a lot of things we struggle with, faster and without relying on politicians. I think it's pol

The volume of space is still really large though. If managed well, it will be fine. For some intuition around this, the volume is greater than the part of the atmosphere where airplanes fly, but the traffic is much less and more predictable

Except hydrogen fuel cell vehicles lost already. There's no point comparing to them because we don't live in a reality where they're going to become a thing. If you want to play the "what if" game, that has its meri

Maybe at one point, but the final design did not allow rapid turnaround. Starship could actually do it the way is being designed. They have a good shot at pulling it off.

Your argument makes a lot of sense. What I don't understand though, is if you share publicly available information, how have you done any harm? How can you have violated sanctions? Then again if you gave aviation lectures to Al Qaeda a

You can't sanction publicly available information. By that logic every crypto or blockchain website or video on the internet not blocked in North Korea is guilty of violating the sanctions. This doesn't make any sense, and I feel

Except it's not when it comes to peered bandwidth, like with cloudflare. Which is a big deal especially to cloudflare. If you're in Alibaba, Azure or Google Cloud you can cut your costs by putting cloudflare in front, even though

Thank you cloudflare for calling AWS out on their ridiculous transfer pricing. Anybody working in this space has been frustrated with it for over a decade. We all know it's a ripoff, and we all know it's priced in a way to lock yo

I wonder if they're wrong to see it that way. Given these would "defend the area" from birds, that might actually increase fish stocks without really getting in the way of fishing in nearby waters. Also just marking some area

Those sell for a quarter million used, I think that's worth it barring major mechanical issues.

All I can say is I hope you're wrong on some of those points. It's inevitable that myself and my family will be exposed to covid19 at some point in the future. I think the same is true for most of us.

Basically rounded down to none. While we continually underestimate our unintended impacts, I don't believe that's the case here. Even if we sourced 100% of the world's energy needs from wind it would be slowing a miniscule fr

Ah, now I see what you mean. That is worrying. I hope that the rate of mild cases in vaccinated people is lower than the article would lead one to believe. I also hope the protection given is enough to avoid that kind of brain damage.
923.
by eloff 5y ago
I couldn't find where it talks about vaccinated patients in the study you linked. It's not surprising that covid19 can cause brain damage (and heart damage, and death) to unvaccinated people.

You can practice on anyone, you don't need to target diplomats, and it's not clear what that would gain.

I think Russia does it to send a clear message it was them, to dissuade others from going against the state.

No. It's another name for tu quoque, a logical fallacy by attempting to deflect criticism through pointing out hypocrisy. The Soviets used it as their go-to defense for their hideous system by pointing to racism, prisons, lynching, etc

No. Trying to say they're somehow equivalent is whataboutism, it's insulting to the US and demeaning to survivors of North Korea. I know the US is not perfect, but you can't just go saying it's like North Korea.

by eloff 5y ago
You need to drop North Korea from that to make any sense at all. Not only do they incarcerate far more people per capita than the US, but the conditions make US prison seem like paradise. No exaggeration. Prison in North Korea is much close

The article mentions it does show up on radar. But it also depends on the altitude it's flying at. The friendly European airforce must have been sleeping because the article never mentions any attempted investigations or interceptions

That's not what's happening here though.
