Can somebody steelman for me why this is a bad thing? Because I'm struggling to understand why a huge economy with gas too hot under the pan and money sloshing around, would NOT want to remove some energy from things.

My arithmetic nodule is having a konniption fit. Does not compute. If this is 16:9 and you mistook your aspect ratio I can breathe again. √2:1 says 1.41:1 isn't 1.33:1 10 A4 pages do not fill a 4:3 or 3:4 aspect ratio box. They don&#x2

You're describing a problem which regulation is designed to fix. People argue about how effective that is, and post counter intuitive outcomes, but I think the central point remains: there's little evidence a deregulated housing m

Well done! FreeBSD 15 is a complete no-go for X right now on utm, rdp/vnc is the only way. Hopefully somebody will work out how to get a frame buffer working there, from this.

Given some airlines (Hawaiian?) do sometimes weigh passengers on their smaller craft, I could believe fuel load would drop if pax weight dropped but I don't actually believe either fuel cost or weight really strongly informs pricing. I

Use of normative MUST in politics means two things: firstly somebody concretely wants (or doesn't want for MUST NOT) which itself implies possible contentious views, opposites even, and secondly that a concrete alternative is proposed.

The important part to keep in mind is that the paper is about the first word, and is not necessarily a partial history in the sense of incomplete, it's the partial which goes with impartial. It's an interesting history. Personally

I would be very surprised if this stops at one national border for X. Not sure about time frames, but you would think there's a wave coming.

I think your leading sentence is a false Dichotomy for many people. Pursuit of happiness doesn't imply being in a state of bliss all the time. Stoics are allowed to be happy too.

I'm caught on a fence in this, because I'd be delighted if X sank and the majors broke associations. But, I think handset makers and device makers need some kind of safe harbour around what obligations they have to place things in

What is "good" contextually here? If you believe in zero-sum I win you lose, then much of this policy is aiming to do precisely that. Badly executed but that's the intent. I don't believe in that, I genuinely believe in

I'm not in favour of the WH proposal in any case, but specifically there's no economic justifier in materials extraction, strategically. It would be more sensible to continue to invest in onshore and close ally mining and producti

I got power schmoozed once. Why they mistook me for being worth the investment in time was beyond me. It's a strange feeling being led into the presence, assumed to have knowledge and power, and be offered.. something intangible to hel

As a neophyte, I failed to see them demonstrate injection. They seem to model what injection would mean, but not show how the threat actor got into the flow. Probably for non neophytes who this is aimed at, that's a given.

I have been exposed to these kinds of games, and there is (in my experience) always a second-order-effect in playing them: Somebody is asserting dominance, usually the person making up or applying the to-be-found rules. It's still capa

Wish the heat deaths had been scaled to "per thousand" population so it was clearer where pop increases had some context. And of course, that the temps were in °C as well as °F but I know prodding the bear is pointless
