I believe the conclusion many draw is that online apps make it easier for the more attractive men to have multiple partners, and that this doesn't happen nearly as much with the more attractive women.

Female mate expectations are a significant part of this topic, but as far as I can tell, it's a third rail. So the incel concept is fair game as you can safely deconstruct unreasonable male expectations, male mediocrity and male crimin

I think this is a basic template for many npr stories. Name a group and discuss the group's progress or setbacks in an industry over the decades. Discuss in relation to racism and sexism. The story is easy to research and get quotes on

Like "fact checking", it's to discredit sources that their editorial staff disagrees with while promoting the sources that they do agree with. You don't have to entertain arguments with sources you disagree with if you&#

They do. The Car of Tomorrow was created for safety purposes. If fans or manufacturers had anything to say about it, nascar would use vehicles that actually looked like floor room models and not the same car with different stickers.

"He'd rather see the current golf clubs get modified rather than the ball, and he's not alone." That has got to be the biggest nonstarter I've ever heard. If players use different clubs than the fans, it would under

It's useful to see what your mental state was when you wrote it. At least, when I've gone back to things I wrote in the past I was shocked at how self-absorbed I sounded. I resolved to try and not live in my own world so much... A

Among other reasons, imprisonment is used for reasons of incapacitation, deterrence and rehabilitation. It should be fairly easy to see how light or no sentencing has compromised those goals.

Having enjoyed infinite jest, I was looking for comparisons trying to determine if I could make it through GR as well. Reddit says Gravity's Rainbow makes infinite jest look like twilight in comparison...

I think the elitism question is related to mobile gaming being considered casual while there's a gender disparity. So if you say mobile gaming is bad, which it is, you're insulting female gamers. (From the perspective of certain b

Note that you swapped out the word "cities" with "states". You can disagree with the premise of the article all you want, but the highest crime cities are mostly run by Democrats, mostly. When you choose where to live, y

I've seen engineers who are good candidates for -10x... The moral of this story is, of course, if people are submitting work that creates more work, you must push back against them. Part of the issue is that intelligent people can be b

My original explanation wasn't that good and yes, I conflated the espionage act with how this situation would be handled (by the DOD) https://www.cyberdefensemagazine.com/data-spill-an-everyday/ This is a better s

The espionage act treats negligence with strict liability. So if you "could have" caused a leak, it's still treated like a leak.

Slightly off topic, but wouldn't the correct wording for this be, "Why paid masterminds are mental masturbators" or, "Why paid masterminds are mentally masturbatory"? It looks like the title uses the object as an ad

A lot of the talk about how great mortgages were has the benefit of hindsight. Yes, if you have steady income, it would have been better to get a larger mortgage a couple years ago when money was cheaper (assuming you bought in an area that

Straw man. You ignored the content of my original comment. If you don't think "invaded their neighbor" is jingoistic, that's fine, but you didn't address that. I'm not commenting on specific ethics of their inv

>Ukraine was invaded by its neighbour. This is the jingoistic phrasing we hear a lot, which implies that Russia did something unique. As Americans, certainly we invade many countries, but we have the integrity to invade countries who are

It's funny that it was sold as "affordability". Is it really more affordable to have a mortgage that lasts twice as long? Can we really consider interest only to be home ownership? You don't own that home, the banks do,

Certainly, Bush and Cheney invaded a country under false pretenses after lying to the public. They also set up a surveillance state with the help of major corporations. And, maybe not so much of a crime, they set us on the path of thinking
