People are waking up to the fact that public school is one of the biggest intrusions of the state into your personal life. Zero tolerance polices of all kinds can land your child in criminal trouble. Truancy laws can have police sent to y

I think they could, at least on a technical level. I don't think they would for business reasons, but there's plenty of smaller companies they could buy up if they didn't want to start from scratch.

Nobody is going to Mars. Not now, not in 100 years. Unless we invent some kind of teleportation or other sci-fi way of traveling there, it's just never going to take place. Mars has essentially no energy sources. Everything people n

I don't know about controlling the metaverse, but my personal theory is that AI will be dominated by computer-integrated primate brains, possibly genetically modified.

People actually think we might colonize these places. Like, how are we going to send a bulldozer to the moon? How are we going to fuel it?

> All of the pit bull's violent "nature" was trained and bred-in by people, on purpose. That's entirely my point. The breed is violent. Wolves are violent. It seems to me the violence was bred out of other breeds r

Owning pitbulls is irresponsible. They're very close to wild animals. The characteristics of the breed make them excellent attack dogs. Pitbulls are natural born killers. Once something triggers their instincts, they kill. Training

You're looking to spend at least $30k if you need a vertical system, probably a lot more. And from what I understand, they ground loops inevitably don't reach their expected lifespan, so you'll be drilling new holes sooner t

Peer review is just people looking at a report and deciding whether or not your conclusions and findings are based on the data you reported. What it's not is replication or in any way an indication that the original research was indepe

I recently spoke to a well driller that also does geothermal well drilling. He was telling me that the systems are more or less obsolete at this point, as the air-to-air units have such a high SEER rating that the ground loops really will

Incentives are different between state and private actors. The state has many tools at it's disposal to encourage or even force suicide (aka, murder in the latter case). The state is the ultimate arbiter of whether or not someone is

I don't pay for extra standby aircraft, but additional flight availability is why I pick one airline over another. If you choose to fly Spirit, and your flight is canceled or delayed for any reason, you might not make it to your desti

I'm surprised this guy hasn't already fled. How he even allowed himself to get arrested in the first place, crazy. If you lose billions of other people's money, no matter the circumstances, you should immediate proceed to a

That's most of the developed world now. People are having fewer kids and having them later, all or almost all population growth is being driven by the developing world. Personally, I don't know how the UK puts up with it. My col

The article explains that the low-paid EU workers are no longer there to fill service sector jobs. Domestic employees won't accept those wages or working conditions. We can see real time in the UK the effect that mass immigration has

ISPs are really at fault here. They've done practically nothing to prevent botnets and DDoS from continuing to exist. But man, the defendants, how can you be dumb enough to run something like this from US soil, like you're not go

Impractical or not, public streets belong to the public, and the public gets to dictate how they are used or not used. I'm willing to negotiate. If companies don't want to release their code, they can put up $50M in a trust, and

I watched the video on the site. I didn't care for the music, very jarring. Most of the graphics were bland such as all the gray blocks. When I think of the fun NES games I played, they were not puzzle games. They were TMNT 2, Mario
