Not at all. Fires are survivable, and the vast majority of aviation fires have ended without total airframe loss. Remember: everybody in a small captive space is a firefighter. And the chief firefighters are the people who we call "f

You're right; I misunderstood the comment to mean, "the matter of whether something is a conspiracy, and the fact pattern of that thing, are unrelated." But it seems like what the commenter meant was, "the matter of whet

I took the comment to mean, "the matter of whether something is a conspiracy is unrelated to the fact pattern of the event." I apologize, for that's obviously not what you meant now that I see this comment. But perhaps you ca

Consider some other class of crime. If I said, "the matter of whether a crime is premediated, and the fact pattern of that crime, are orthogonal attributes." You'd say: "That's not true - the fact pattern is how we

I understand. But they're not unrelated. Sometimes a fact pattern reveals a conspiracy.

I don't understand this concept. I see it all over the internet. But I don't get it. At what point did we stop believing it was possible for people to conspire to commit crimes? Nobody disputes, for example, that the convictions

Oh of course. Of course! I'm always amazed when someone thinks they've trumped anarchist political science by asking, "by who will pave the roads?!" Scaling back road pavement is one of the things to which I most look f

It really is an unreal subsidy. Imagine if you had a product that you really wanted to sell, but were having trouble because every sale required 110 square feet of earth to be set aside. And then, miraculously, the government, with an insan

Agreed. But even by this vague standard, it's an incredible stretch. Tornado Cash is a document, published on github. Anybody can deploy it, or fork it and deploy their fork, and many people have done that. If OFAC wanted to go after
