this fedsoc lawyer says that the radical changes made by the fedsoc justices aren't such a big deal. After all, agency discretion was already limited by the major questions doctrine. He doesn't mention the same court made up the m

who says that conservative justices have no rhyme or reason? Everyone knows they work shamelessly to advance their conservative political goals.

From reading about this boycott I expected the ad to contain a political message of some sort, but it's literally just a regular beer ad with a trans person. Surely, objecting to the mere presence or visibility of certain groups isn&#x

the head on collision has zero net momentum while the car hitting a wall has significant net momentum which must carry into a shockwave through the wall, which also absorbs some of the energy of the crash. This makes the wall collision sign

the explanation of "*word = "hello"" shown is completely incorrect, the memmove explanation is also incorrect

I wonder if this is connected to the layoffs they've had. Cancelling marginal product lines and focusing on core competencies sounds great in theory, but the actual process can be messy and generate ill will. An "overstaffed"

how do you get an "effect size" or "confidence interval" without a properly controlled trial? I could claim that the "effect size" of umbrellas leading to rain is absolutely enormous, billions of gallons of it

There is also no good study showing that parachutes prevent death when falling from an airplane. The best we have is observational "evidence" where there are many uncontrolled variables, such as people whose parachutes failed (but

I don't think we are in any kind of deep disagreement here on the facts. * Gaza is a semi-autonomous area * local government in Gaza is much less LGBT-friendly than Israel's government. * Israel has no intention of changing Gaza&#

What I'm referring to is that Israel is both "in charge" and "not in charge" of Gaza. They control Gaza's borders and move their troops into Gaza at will. On the other hand of course Gazans do not enjoy Israel&

great source lol Israel seems content to keep Palestine as a ghettoized territory, leaving local administrative matters to Palestinians. How will an Israeli victory, no matter how complete, lead to LGBT Palestinians gaining more rights?

The largest glass bottle seems to be 1700L. $1 million is only about 11 liters of $100s. So you could store about $100 million in a glass jar.

Musk claimed they were on a path to profitability (i.e. not currently profitable) and that was before he scared off more advertisers by claiming that Jews were scheming to replace white people with immigrants.

if you go back another 100 years to 1824 then yes you have a truly awful system. The "infernal mills" of England were fed by cotton exported from Southern slave plantations. Most people took Sunday off but 12-hour days were common

by jhp123 3y ago
The idea that in 1924 people were working 84-hour weeks (including Sunday!) is preposterous. For example Ford introduced the 8-hour day at its factories in 1914.

We're not at war with China! edit: the same document that defines "aid and comfort to the enemy" as treason has a specific procedure for declaring war which hasn't happened.

is there any allegation of illegal behavior here? Or are VCs supposed to go out ahead of Congress in sanctioning supposed enemies?

E) This factoid is a tautology because any bucketing by income will put more savers in the big income bucket and more dissavers in the low income bucket. People have periods of saving and dissaving over any typical life course, most notably

Pretty sure it's retirees. They have low income because they are not working. But many of them are very well off. The rich retirees skew the average up even though most of the bottom 80% have little investment income.

by jhp123 3y ago
Another way to look at this is "households save less while making bottom-80% income vs. top-20%". Many of the top 20% income earners transition to bottom-80% retirees. As far as I can tell this data is not tracking the same househ

typescript is worse than plain javascript. The type system is not sound and can't actually catch that many bugs; at the same time it adds a lot of verbosity and wasted time satisfying the type checker. mandatory code reviews on every m

well you can read the study directly, the Guardian summary seems to be pretty poor if it's giving you the sense that differences narrow rapidly each generation — the study found social status is as heritable as height and can persist f

A study of British surnames found that those families descended from Norman nobility (e.g. D'Urberville) from the 11th century Domesday Book are wealthier than those with common names (e.g. Darbyfield) today , almost 1000 years later.
