I have a follow-up question to #3. Like the parent post I commend your stance on free speech, but recognise you host some controversial figures that other platforms have been happy to ban. The range of opinion that Big Tech deems permissib

The one-drop rule wasn't universal; some states had a less stringent definition of who counted as black. E.g. according to Wikipedia, Florida passed a law in 1865 stipulating that you were black if you had at least one black great-gran

Let me preface this by saying that I don't think Kendi is a deep thinker and I'm not endorsing his ideas, just describing them. But I don't think we're using the word "discrimination" in the same way as each ot

Well this is a story as old as racism itself. There's never been a clear-cut way to unambiguously decide which "race" everybody is, and segregationist regimes have always struggled with edge cases. E.g. back in the days of Ji

"equity" = equality of outcomes, as opposed to equality of opportunity.

Ibram X Kendi's book How to be an Anti-Racist argues that racial discrimination is not only acceptable but morally necessary if it reduces average-level disparities between racial groups. Well, he doesn't really "argue&qu

The founders of BLM are far-left extremists ("trained Marxists", abolish capitalism, dismantle the nuclear family etc., it's not like their agenda is a secret.) Does it boggle your mind that many people who support BLM and be

Canadian truckers are 97% peaceful! And it doesn't matter that they're disrupting Ottowa business because those businesses have insurance.

If it bothers you that thousands of people are not working or getting paid, wait till you learn what Western governments did in 2020.

The BLM riots were applauded and supported by huge portions of the American political and media class, including Kamala Harris who encouraged people to donate to the rioters' bail funds. Multiple people were killed at CHAZ in Seattle a

I think what GP means is that X amount of new bitcoins are "mined" every year, which is to say that X new bitcoins spring into existence from nowhere, so if the current exchange rate is Y dollars per bitcoin then X Y dollars needs

As a former Rails dev, I've always enjoyed Piotr Solnica's writing. He does a great job of explaining what's wrong with the framework, in particular the flaws that aren't immediately obvious when you're starting out

The evidence is circumstantial but not conclusive. Did Finney ever explain how he came to be the recipient of the first ever Bitcoin transaction if he wasn't Satoshi? Who do you think is Satoshi, if not Finney?
