I'm very happy to see that Dallas, TX will be the site of the factory.

Friedman has been irrelevant for about 10+ years now. He, Carl Bernstein and Paul Krugman are characatures of their former selves. I guess the statement is true for the new York times overall, as they have become a lifestyle magazine, of

The Left is using psychological projection as a technique. They accuse their opponents of doing exactly what they themselves are doing. They'll call you a fascist while they burn books. They'll call you racist while accusing yo

Is that limited to the 2020 election, or will it include the many Democrats who objected to the 2000 and 2004 election results?

I doubt there was much love to be lost between Google and conservative congressmen, many of whom are being pushed and are pushing for section 230 reforms. This is just an opportunity for Google to leverage for PR.

I was taught the tongue-palate trick years ago as a relaxation technique. It's basically impossible for your facial muscles to be contracted while doing it, helping an overall relaxation.

By Springtime (in 45-60 days) we'll be at the one year mark, fatigued by masks, rules, shutdowns, and authoritarians, in general. The news will be tedious about how many are being vaccinated (it will be a lot) -- and, the weather will

Languages experience entropy, too.

It was (partially) because of the evolution of C++ that Java became popular. C++ was starting to gain baggage by recent additions like double inheritance. Java was seen as a clean break from that, and back to a a more solid OO model.

While walking along in desert sand, you suddenly look down and see a tortoise crawling toward you. You reach down and flip it over onto its back. The tortoise lies there, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs, trying to turn its

He was a hero until people found he doesn't adhere to a single narrative. He's an unreliable source for zealots.

Not dystopian or absurd, at all. It's like a tobacco company sponsored research lab to determine if nicotine is addictive.

Accusations of racism are the first tool used to respond to anyone they disagree with, it seems.

It was criminal to enable pharma to fast track development of vaccines, in half the most optimistic forecasts of how long that would take? It was criminal to invoke the defense production act to make ventilators -- far more than we needed?

Are you referring to Antifa and BLM, who also organized on FB and Twitter during 2020, too?

"After all that happened, Now it makes sense for a country to have a grasp over the communication of its citizens." Wow. Fear ushers in tyranny, for sure.

Good to know, and you're right. Glad to know it's not as dystopian as it sounds.

Less toxic than law enforcement knocking on my door to see if I have a damn television. I'd rather reign in authoritarianism.

"Edit: I have to be honest, I enjoyed the work." And that makes it _perfect_ -- too rare in actual life. Wonderful. Buy yourself a pint! :-)

A sad attempt to intellectualize hatred for Trump, and white males, in general. Gotta tear down that patriarchy, right?

It's a symptom of the mental illness that is so widespread among "journalists". Mr. Lidz seems to be suffering from persistently invasive thoughts, caused by spending too much time in hatred and rage cycles.

Well, if hosting Snowden makes the Russkis righteous, then hosting Parler must be fine, too. It seems that Americans who speak against narratives find friends there? Ironic, to say the very least.

The mobile world has trained users to think that they should only be able to run sanctioned software approved by the device maker -- so much for the personal computer era. Now, people pay a higher price but they have less control over their
