Navigation is a perishable skill. Overreliance on GPS has been shown to degrade navigation skills and other brain functions [1]. 1. http://phys.org/news/2010-11-reliance-gps-hippocampus-functi...

Anecdotally, the PNNL people I've worked with were, well not very good at their craft. PNNL is in the middle of nowhere, unless you're at the top of the game doing highly specialized work there that truly can only be done at PNNL

I think the OP is saying for the general public it's considered a settled matter that everyone is equally likely to get HIV. Not that it's true, but that for PC reasons thats the acceptable "truth". To imply or state o

Of course it happens. Entitlement spending essentially never goes down, it always goes up or when proposals are floated to reduce it they almost always fail. People do vote to give themselves money, and they always vote to protect their e

Ok, so make the example "your wife is bleeding out". Should the can driver charge you outrageously because you are richer than he is?

I like this idea, it certainly makes it fair. If you support the idea, you pay for it. I suspect this would likely fail though, if you didn't have some disincentive for withdrawals then it only takes a tipping point of free loaders t

I'm sure you didn't mean this, but let's be clear the 6T is not returned to the tax payer that stumped it. Since this isn't generated wealth, just redistributed, it's a cost to someone. Someone's getting 20k,

Additionally, the cost of living varies widely, for example, in the US. Between climate differences (it costs more to stay warm in Alaska in the winter than it does in Florida), logistical differences (fuel costs more in Hawaii than it doe

Exactly how does consumer spending increase if it's just redistribution? And assuming it does, why is that good? What about consumer savings being reduced due to less net income for the earners? I'm having trouble seeing how thi

Huh? Perhaps you should read what I wrote again, it appears you've completely missed my point. And yes, I read the article, and went to the website, I know what it's about if that's your point. Here's my point: bossy i

That's funny, I actually heard the word used when I was a military cadet in high school. It was used to teach the difference between being a a leader, or just, well bossy. Don't be a boss, don't act bossy, and so on. Bossy

They aren't he'll bent on crushing you. Oh no, propaganda is about seducing you. They want you on their side, not crushed. Convincing you that you're much too clever to be sold a lie. Why this is the truth! Those others,

I think you're assuming that a platform can detect a buffer overflow. How exactly is an iPhone or iPad going to detect a buffer overflow? I think we can all agree that owning the entire platform on a device is far worse than a MITM at

Another brutal communist dictatorship. Why is it that some people think this one will somehow be different? It's always always always the same.

Demand creates jobs. And businesses try to get ahead of demand so they can cease the market, creating those jobs sooner.

No, you're thinking of the value of a safe, or did you forget the economic collapse of all those regulated banks in 2008?

That's awful and shameful that no firm would take the case. I was helped by a reporter friend that published my narrative of what happened to me, which got the word out to a lot more firms. Eventually I was contacted by several, and

I'm terribly sorry this happened to you. For what it's worth you can sue, and you can get money for your trouble and maybe even cause the police department to change it's policies. I did it back in 2000 with the MPD, it too

The US most certainly funded the afghan war against the soviets to hurt the soviets, and hurting the soviets was all about stopping the spread of communism. You're looking at this too narrowly, some would call it a proxy war, it was y

by growupkids 13y ago
The collapse of the soviet union was caused by the prolonged stagnation of its economy in the 70s and 80s. This lead to all the events that followed (glasnost, perestroika, etc.) in failed attempt to fix it. And the cause for the Era of St

So it's 1 in 6 now? When I was in college the claim was 1 in 4. So I guess there's a silver lining there. Although some research asserts the ratio may be even smaller: http://www.leaderu.com/real/ri9502&#x2

Indeed. And there are others too, not to mention the fall of the Soviet Union liberating lots of countries in no small part due to America and it's allies fight against communism. Whenever I hear people imply the US just makes things
