Yep, I'm assuming the graphic is right because it makes zero sense that a metropolitan area could somehow grow more food than it needs.

In 2001, Shane Della-Vedova, a military captain in the army explosives team, was asked to dispose of ten M72 shoulder-fired rocket launchers from an Australian Defence Force base. On the 8th of June, Shane spent the day blowing up M1 rocke

I don't think it's particularly a sport for well-off professionals at all. It just happens that most of the people we interact with in SF/SV are well-off professionals, so those are the climbers you know. If you go a differen

Why wouldn't the employees on Blind not be representative? Considering how every other company voted the other way, I don't don't see why Blizzard would be the only biased one.

This is completely untrue. Most Americans don't care about Apple's relationship with China, and they're probably only losing a fraction of a percent of customers. If Apple doubled their prices, they would lose the majority of

Complete speculation, but maybe Apple wants people to use the app while having plausible deniability by removing it from the store. Banning the app for the first time made it incredibly popular, so a huge number of people would have probabl

The basic idea is that people are being disproportionally taxed, usually in favor of the rich (i.e. people who have owned property in high CoL places for a long time). By raising the taxes on these people to "fair" levels, a bunch

I don't think there's anything here that would particularly benefit from raytracing. Raytracing usually shines when modeling stuff like reflections, refractions, and multiple light sources that are expensive with shaders, but I do

Going to school now is MUCH more expensive that it was when you were there. Students now are expected to pay ~3x what you paid to go to an in-state university. If there isn't an in-state one that's good enough though (not everyone
