Wrong. We just happened to have a president with those standards. Nothing about society then suggested we held politicians to any kind of lofty standards. A certain type had ambitions for higher office. Thats it.

The allegation here is that its the government doing it. Do you really think Twitter wants to take on governments?

Can someone explain what "linked to" means in the context of a research study? Is it just a way to highlight correlation when it is insufficient to assert causation?

Ah, it would seem that Epic has a nose for marketing opportunities especially today when "values" / "we are good folk" marketing is all the rage

Allowing? Why would you not allow them in the first place? In any case, there shouldn't be any collisions if they are separate network sites except in the case of fiat decisions from the top.

Quite right. As the article notes, a key part of Robert was that everyone agreed to the rules. This says nothing about whether or not there will be total agreement with outcomes. To pretend that so called "consensus" building will

Maybe the way you read scifi could be described as 'passively consuming'. Me, I engaged actively in whatever I was reading as a kid especially the genre stuff. We really could use some romanticism of some things from the past. Whi

How would Medicaid expansion have helped with doctor shortages in rural areas?

I appreciate your taking the time to respond to this idea that somehow because you were only a 'minor' in CJ, your opinion is 'not a useful point of reference'.

Indeed! These native ads are getting more blatant by the day. I know times are hard for print media but this doesnt help with the perceived credibility or lack thereof.

If we say the dataset is flawed, it is important that we pin down why and how exactly it is flawed. By what methods exactly are we going to source "not-flawed" data?

"The fall of the clueless nerd" indeed. The headline in the wired story linked triggers the hell out of me. I suppose we have come full circle, Nerds suck, then they were cool and now they have been consigned back to uncool again.

Super broad question here but how do you guys do it? I mean, how do you go from knowing how to build a basic webpage to knowing that you need e.g. Elasticsearch for search queries. It seems like there is so much specialized tech to learn bu

> You’re talking about a man who was pedantic about language his entire life. Thank you for reminding us of this. The man was a noted stickler for language. In fact many ppl only know him via the GNU/Linux interject meme.

Though difficult, I endeavor to differentiate between an action and words in 'defense'(for lack of a better word) of said action.

Having the wrong opinion about certain topics is getting more expensive This is an excellent point. More and more, there is no middle ground in consequences. Nothing like a suspension? or leave of absence etc. I don't recall how things

Not against you in particular but I really hate these sorts of 'behind the scenes' info about authors. I just recently read that Asimov needed a lot of editorial help. It really takes the magic out of it.
