How ever did society function without the Internet? Were all leaders just dictators leading up to the 90s? It's hyperbolic crap like claiming this is the very foundation of free speech that leads people with opposing views to disengage

Perhaps you should spend a little of time reading about the US form of government because what you described is very similar to the purpose of the House and the Senate. Barring gerrymandering issues, the house members are populous elected r

That's like judging all of Google based on the quality of one product. With 10x as many employees as Google and a very loose organization, expecting any kind of reputation is folly. A product from an IBM consultant is about as related

Saying BGP is "web scale" is a bit misleading because it has to be very carefully aggregated for it to route the entire internet. If you do something like advertise a /32 for each container you can very quickly fill up TCAMs

>Well there's no such things as a "hop" at Layer 2. Only if you're being obtuse and don't actually work in networking. A hop in L2 is a device that does L2 forwarding and participates in L2 protocols like STP. &g

The green energy comparison is not apt because there isn't an ethical amount of taxes to pay. With green energy you are trying to minimize non renewable consumption. What is the ethical amount of tax deductions to take? All, some, or n

And what every person in the US does who takes a deduction.

That's the same outcome of terrorist attacks and massive ad campaigns. Hardly useful without an actual message. The only thing most people know about occupy wall street was that a bunch of people camped out for no particular reason.

>Of course, their lifestyle probably maintains the healthiest gut flora around as well. Is there any science behind that statement or is it just a sort of naturalistic fallacy?

It would be nice if you could link to some of the key studies in this area. Just because there were a few flawed studies is hardly a reason to take it as actionable information. Has it even been determined that diversity leads to productivi

You're two analogies are fracking and a circular saw to a bomb. Is there really any justification for the comparison?

You just made a perfect argument for why the Google design is inadequate. It centralizes way too much power to make them the target of lawyer and it makes them the arbiter of acceptability as well.

Even if the government entity is taxpayer funded and centrally planned, this is a competition structured like a market. They set out a bid (the winning amount for the goal) and people can compete however they see fit and spend what they wan

No, the 'diversity' angle is frequently tied to things like skin color, sex, ethnicity, heritage, etc. You can have two people that match in all of those categories but one chose to go to a state school because of a family issue a

That's what the last 8 years have led up to. Having different political views is now a completely normal reason to stop talking to someone entirely. This leads to everyone in the US existing in a political echo chamber attacking strawm

Define racism. If it's "discrimination based on skin color" then things like BLM are also racist. Is that what you want?
