The article clearly explains the phone number is related to Uber, and the top post is people worried about Uber phone number scams. So why are they surprised the 3rd results is also about uber phone number scams? I'd hazard a random gu

>Amtrak clings to the hope that someday people will view its service not as something that sucks and that they hate, but as something that is actually nice and that they don’t hate. This is the money quote, I think.

You only seem interested in discussing gender to bring up the ghost of genetic predispositions. But if you want to twist the study in that way, you'll have to first say that you think that whites are genetically superior to non-white i

Yes, such locks exist, and are actually sold in the real world. They are often used in "outdoor key storage", which will find you images of what they look like. Though I can't guarantee any particular model has this particula

I assume the writing quality would be the same. But it's not necessarily going to be output in the same type of format. For example, game designers are known to have been hired by government agencies and corporations to create games th

I can't disagree more. Legislation exists only because of ethics. To discuss legislation without ethics is to talk about nothing at all. If you want to write a full ethics-agnostic law system, I think you'll find it won't a

In Germany, there is only about 212k Chinese people. Since that's less than 1% of the German population, I guess they should just throw them all in jail since their opinions don't matter (mathematically, of course).
