But what if there’s nothing to purge? What if the church itself is the catalyst for creating predators? The fact that this problem has spanned generations tells me that this isn’t something you can purge, it’s fundamental to the way the chu

I've been eating the Beyond Meat (pea protein) burger from A&W for a while now. It's pretty damn close to the taste of beef, I'm happy to make the switch. It has an aftertaste that some might describe as metallic, but you

You can determine a lot by stopping and asking someone about their immigration status, probably way more than chalk on a tire would.

My brother just moved into an apartment and wants to get a chest freezer so he can store more frozen food. But there's really nowhere to put it, so he has to go out grocery shopping more often then not. People who already have freezers

No, but it may prevent them from buying a second or third.

Yep, chalk on your tires violates your rights. But if you are within 100 miles of a border, we can search everything in your car and on your persons no questions ask.

There's an energy cost to keep food frozen for weeks or months at a time. It's common for houses to have multiple fridges and freezes, you wouldn't need to do this if food was delivered when you wanted to eat.

Accessing data and selling data are the same thing. For example; “I’m going to give you access to the answer for a math equation”. When you use your access to view the answer, you have the data and you don’t need access any more! “Ok great,

We would know. Either the secret space program requires enough exotic materials and science that you wouldn't be able to hide it OR it doesn't require that, so it's simple enough that any one of us could stumble upon it. Tril

It's worth reading. It will remind you of the rule of law; that we all should follow the laws because it makes society better. You can speed your car down the road and there is no mechanism to prevent you from breaking the limit, but m

You've never seen a car that's accidentally driven into wet concrete/pavement? If a construction worker places the pylons a little too far apart, it looks like you might be able to use the lane!

No shit. What about when you erase all the lines on the road? What about when you remove the road? What's next, "Luxury Tesla defeated by a cheap piece of duct tape over the main sensors"? "We removed a wheel from a Tesl

This is a two part solution. First, tighter controls on phone systems. Why are you allowed to spoof your number as if you're a local calling the local police department? This is dumb, police departments need a way to say "huh, thi

Embargoes on countries that don't have proper waste management. We won't sell you stuff if you can't dispose of it properly. It's probably the only way to get lazy and corrupt governments to get their act together.

Easy to spread but easy to ignore. The internet cheapened communications to the point where propaganda has about the same worth as cat memes.

It goes deeper than that. At my enterprise company, our accessibility department explicitly does not gather any data on our users with accessibility needs. We don't know who they are, what problems they are facing, or if our soluti

Yes, they can still program, but not as good as the US (clearly). I didn't say that culture was the defining factor of being able to program or not, just that it could be the factor for what puts the US on top of other countries.

Yes, and Russian computer scientists are still good, but obviously the US is more Western than Russia, so perhaps that is why they got beat in the competition?

What about culture? Computer programming languages and paradigms have all been developed under western culture; they're written in english with logic that is derived from western philosophy. Without being fully absorbed in this culture

The issue is that you obfuscate the destination of the link. This is a big no-no in enterprise fraud prevention. We train people to only click trusted links. How do I know whether a golink is trusted or not? And what if my golinks account i

This isn't an efficient use of resources, especially when you scale it to millions of people. Returning to wood burning for cooking and heating is absolutely a step backwards for your health and the environment. You're more "

Yes, I have not had a track day. Most drivers have not had a track day. It’s incredibly expensive and puts a shit ton of wear on your vehicle. For the common man, go karts and rollercaosters are enough.

98% of drivers won’t do that. Let the racers do as they please.

I've always wondered why the government sets speed limits but then doesn't enforce them on manufacturers. You can solve 99% of speed "crime" by making it illegal to sell a car that can break the speed limit.
