On the other hand, it could help people look beyond race and instead look at other traits like athleticism, math proficiency, wordsmithing, artistry, endurance, high altitude adaptation, seamanship, gift of the gab, etc…

We use breeds for other species, like cats, dogs, horses, etc. Humans could probably be categorized by breeds —breeds of course would not parallel ‘races’ but could still subdivide our species in new ways like we do with other animal speci

Check out the young turks. They will tell you that the Dems undermined themselves by trying to gaslight people into voting for Kamala and to believe that Joe was dynamic and had more stamina than his staffers. Now you have the mainstream

No, the other candidate was a terrible candidate who conspired to conceal the mental and physical decline of the then President. Don’t believe me? look at Tapper’s new tell-all; and apparently soon KJP is coming out with another tell-all. D

Depends. Ancient Egyptian art didn’t evolve that much and it remained for millennia as current without the feeling that it ‘stagnated’. There is nothing that says things need to eternally evolve. There is some advantage in some systems in

Good idea in principle. In practice this could invite unscrupulous actors, or people who flake out at higher rates than close family -not that families can’t flake out, but I’d imagine it’d be a lower incidence.

Ok but Asians or people with Asian ancestry don’t even add up to 1% of the Mexican population. It’s miniscule. There are probably more middle easterners than Asians living in Mexico.

People of Japanese ancestry top out at around 1% of all Brazilians. That’s not a lot or significant portion of the population. If you get to 5 or 7% we can talk about significance. On the other hand they tend to have outsized influence o

I think that’s overstating it. There are pockets in the largest cities, but that’s about it. Very few Latin Americans would be like, hey let’s go get some Chinese food, outside of the largest cities. It’s not like Canada or the US where e

It wasn’t till the late 1700s that patents became form of intellectual property, before that it was a form of granting economic monopoly. Some of these “patents” were for already existing things, to give the grantee a monopoly over the sale

IP conventions were not formalized and nations were not signatories. Back in the early colonies Britain embargoes tech to prevent us from leapfrogging them, there was no IP protection framework, so I’m not sure what you’re on about. It was

In some cases, but in most cases even well known bands that had been around had tickets that highschoolers could afford. Only a handful of bands were like triple the average and would have been the likes of Rolling Stones Springsteen and su

It’s not insane. People are living longer than before, unfortunately when initially set up, people didn’t take increasing longevity into account as well as lower fertility rates. Quite a few people never got to retirement when initially i

Workstation had a limit[1] of 10 where server had a limit of 5000. [1] I don’t remember the details but often workstation had soft limits compared to server. There were hexedit ways around them.

I’ve no idea why people downvote the above claims. Here from the Verge: https://www.theverge.com/2013/9/11/4717796/made-in-america-a... As late as 2014 phones were being made in the US. I believe Nokia i

Higher end Motorolas were mfg in the US in the early 2000s. It’s possible. Top of the line were ~$700, with inflation that’d afford iPhones. They were top sellers and not niche models.

He’s a Salvadoran citizen illegally in the US. He gets deported. If you get into Canada or Mexico illegally, barring bribery, you will get deported. No due process is owed you.

Yeah, Venezuela, his own country didn't want to take him back.

If you you are illegally in just about any country, being there without authorization is basis for deportation. No one is being denied due process. Moreover, you can be denied entry at ports of entry to any country for any reason by custom

If you come here legally and don't commit a crime, they won't send you down there. If you come here legally and commit a crime, you'll get sent back to your country of origin. People being sent down there came here illegally

And those guys are Salvadoran… right? Like if Mexico sends back a bunch of criminal gringos, what are we supposed to do, ask Mexico to incarcerate them for us? No we take them and put them through our system of justice and send them to the

Don’t you have to be guilty of a crime to be sent down there? For the vast majority of people who violate their visas, they simply get sent to their home country. If you’re willing to remain in your home country out of fear of US policies,

This has the inherent danger of becoming a programing tool to push forward the desired agenda of a given government. So, while it may be a cure, it's also a poison -a greater poison than having a relatively few conspiracy theorists. I

New bill should make clickbait and TikTok like dopamine dependent services/games & lootboxes illegal. Make software one time purchases again. I’d let them ban porn in return for the above.

I agree with you generally speaking while also acknowledging that there are lots of cases where public transit is not feasible (rural areas, larger items transport, time sensitive travel). Also some ads are useful, but I’d be down for not

It’s a bad measure. Fossil fuels is what allowed us the progress we’ve experienced in the XX century and beyond. Without it, the majority of the world would be living near subsistence as well as still suffering from infectious diseases, e

That’s something that’s developed over the last couple decades. Europe didn’t have vast amounts of homelessness and poverty. My guess is Schengen plus lax immigration policies. That is compare requirements for entering the UAE vs Europe.
