School is a must for every kid. However, the form that our current education system takes is absurd. It is barely appropriate for a minority of students. Much less all of them. There are so many better education systems in the world with am

School is a bit like a prison for children. When you get out of prison you want to think about what you'll be doing the rest of the day, not what you had to go through on the inside. In addition, parents very rarely do what it takes to

Eating McDonalds is just too high a price in the first place. Adding a penny? Even worse.

Bi-elliptic transfers changed my KSP rendezvous procedures so much. No more waiting 5-6 orbits for a Hohmann!

You could in fact make a location system, similar to GPS. But it would need to be deployed and take up a lot of weight. The kind of INS system you would need to use instead of a camera, without location stations like GPS satellites, would b

I cannot imagine a future where I want to watch "TV" again. Mid-roll advertisements and constant banners make it almost un-watchable. I tried to watch a football game earlier and I couldn't enjoy it because of the constant bl

Murder a man with a gun, you get prison. Murder a man with a pen, you get a bonus.

My eyes thank the skies. It's already bad enough with the LED lights. I can only imagine having someone's poorly maintained lasers shining directly into my skull through my retinas.

These vehicles also have horrible visibility. They have had to increase the height of bollards in many places because they cannot be seen from these vehicles and they just crash into them. In addition, vehicles like these are now happily dr

I have met way too many people who own firearms and dream about using them. A corrupt government that they are resisting or an armed intruder. They HOPE to be robbed. I can only imagine the number of folk with firearms that are lining up to

This reminds me of a story my physics professor told me. Couriers were delivering gold between countries at different longitude. At the origin the gold was weighed using balance scales. At the destination the gold was weighed using spring s

I can not imagine my life without books to read. It is the greatest joy in my short life. I have so much pity for these poor crippled people who cannot experience what I do when I read. Such a small, mean world that they live in.

Nobody wants to live in city centers anymore. It is too expensive, filled with car traffic and parking lots, and the restaurants and cafes are only open during business hours. Weekends you can barely even find a restroom, much less a place

If I built a teleporter that killed passengers and bystanders as often as cars, it would be banned in weeks. 43 thousand people a year. Oh yeah, step into this booth, only 120 people died today! It's great!

If you keep making a product that fails early, eventually even your most ardent supporters will leave you. How often can a person pay for a $70k Jeep and have to replace it after 70k miles when the engine dies or the transmission fails? Som

I have literally zero power over this, and our half hearted action in preventing Russia's takeover of Ukraine is just convincing every non-nuclear nation in the world that nukes are a GREAT idea.
