I mean, wouldn't it be an order of magnitude in the US? Going from 8% to 80% is a matter of resource allocation, not technology breakthrough.

I have no idea how this would work. Spotify has to make a decision about which content it pays for and which it doesn't, so you can't mandate it carry everything without massive changes to copyright. In this reality, it seems li

The US had a reality star as president. I don't think people are able to make a distinction between experts and celebrities at this point.

I don't know, it could just be someone realizing it's a big enough problem to act on? Perhaps they didn't realize how pervasive misogynistic or racist content is on the platform but Joe Rogan got a lot of media attention and

So is the problem that they aren't acting sooner or that they shouldn't act at all? Because I don't see how an argument that bad stuff is happening invalidates people acting against other bad stuff.

So either we have to limit all speech or no speech? There's no middle ground?

Not the above poster, but many language teachers YouTube channels are basically advertising for their paid individual lessons.

This is why the federal government is important. People talk about the "swamp in DC" not realizing how swampy it is in their local courthouses, and would be a lot swampier without the federal government looking over it.

I mean, of course it's a boondoggle? Isn't everything NASA does, outside of maybe climate science, a boondoggle? There was no real reason to put someone on the moon or build a space station. The Hubble has taken some pretty pict

The Great Barrington Declaration is complete garbage, and does not have a million scientists' signatures. Even if you go by the self-proclaimed numbers, slightly under a million "concerned citizens" signed it and 15,000 publ

There's a lot of copyright breaking NFTs that are being sold that are a complete legal mess and one of these "artists" is going to be slapped with a lawsuit soon.

Do you have any actual evidence of this?

Is cost of labor really one of the major costs of a semiconductor plant? Plants in South Korea and Taiwan are economical and they have relatively high labor costs, so I'm not sure I buy this.

Have you learned a new language? It's basically an exercise in memorizing vocabulary and phrases and pattern recognition. Linguistics is the study of those patterns across different languages. Therefore, I don't think there is an

If you like these types of puzzles, I'd suggest getting The Language Lover’s Puzzle Book, which is a very accessible curated collection of ILO problems.

Testing in court is not the way to enforce legality for police departments. Having someone let go from a crime years after they are arrested based on court proceedings would 1) be too far removed from the illegal behaviour to change that b

This Wikipedia article is awful. It says it can be used to hide illegal evidence collection, but then only gives examples of it being used to hide sources and methods. I don't think there is a problem hiding a source if there is suffi

I think that's already happening. Airframes may not be changing that much, but the capabilities those airframes are carrying have changed a lot, and that's probably a lot more important than the vessel itself. Look at the recent

Roguelike just means you can beat it in one sitting now, which is a very good niche for indie games if you think about it. Slay The Spire, FTL, Rogue Legacy, and For the King are all "roguelike" but fill completely different niche

There actually are a ton of gaming companies right now. The indie game space seems to be much healthier and accessible than say, the indie movie business. I hardly buy AAA titles anymore because you can get so many good games for under $20

Racist really isn't the right word. Sparta wouldn't have a concept of "race." It was an extreme oligarchy based on the persecution and terrorization of the Helots, 90% of the population for the benefit of the elite 10%

This treats the countries around Russia as lesser and pawns for the great powers to use instead of independent entities with their own interests and rights. No one invaded these countries and forced them to be part of NATO, but Russia cert

The Russians are using their economic integration to try to get away with geopolitical shenanigans. The idea that deeper integration would stop this is ridiculous. Russia having more leverage would drag the EU into more conflict, it seem

Thanks for this. The galaxy formation seems to give the 30% matter, where does the 80% dark matter come from? I get that you measuring the density of stuff that has gravity to see how many galaxies form, but how do we know there's not

I mean, isn't that the definition of black matter? Matter that has gravity but doesn't interact with normal matter through other forces normally?
