And yet people continue to blame Biden for high energy prices. Boggles the mind.

You could go to the Harris website and read their plans, they discuss all your points. https://kamalaharris.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Policy_B... Now compare that to Trump's non-existent plan.

That was a key element of the Harris platform, but nobody gives a shit. Trump boasts about fixing everything overnight with no specifics, and gets a free pass.

The US is, right now, producing more crude oil than any other nation in the history of the world. Harris repeatedly stated that she would not ban fracking. And yet, we keep hearing this BS about how Biden / Harris needed to do somethin

It was enacted so that the minority of slave owners could get their 3/5 slave representation without letting their slaves vote.

If everyone else (and specifically Texas) went proportional, then why not. Until then, CA changing the votes would be a massive give-away to Republicans. BTW, people are overlooking that Nebraska doesn't allocate proportionally, they a

The author was specifically referring to the original 3 book rules, which pre-dated Forgotten Realms by 13 years.

I'm not sure what you mean here. I had the original books, the supplements, then "Basic D&D" and "Advanced D&D". The rules were the same, just repackaged. The original rules didn't "recommend"

Scala 3 has had union types for 4 years now. Scala can be used to do Haskell style pure FP, but with much better tooling. And it has the power of the JVM, you can fall back to Java libraries if you want.

I don't know exactly what you are trying model with this hypothetical circular dependency. However, circular dependencies can be represented with lazy (aka non-strict) references and deferred function calls (aka thunks / call-by-n

Housing is presumably more expensive here. I know my uncle has a house twice as large as mine at similar cost, although that was 20 years ago. But then of course you have to pay much higher AC bills. The tax thing is just something I hear i

Then that would result in lower cost rental units. While not what everyone wants, it would be a great improvement over the current situation. There are also ways to create tax incentives that could discourage your scenario from happening.

Texas actually has higher taxes than California, despite the lack of income tax. They make up for it in property tax AFAIK. California actually has low property taxes for many property owners, thanks to the controversial proposition 13. Des

Maybe you are talking about Ultima Online, because the original Ultima games predate Time Bandits. Also, Marvel multiverse would have been mostly influenced by DC Comics alternate Earths, with Earth-2 introduced in 1961.

I've lived in the Bay Area for 60 years, and never witnessed or been near a shooting. They do happen more often here, but violence is far lower than you would think from the media and online anecdotes.

That is a work-around for the worst flaws of the EC, but keeps in place the unfair distribution of EC votes that favors small states. It also will not allow any meaningful alternative to first-past-the-post voting, which is what people here

Anything a washed up hack like Carville suggests should be viewed with suspicion. At this point, it has to be Harris. She is also the only person who can use the money from Joe Biden's campaign fund.
