How is masquerading as wanting to help but instead having the ulterior motive of preventing them from learning about or getting a certain medical treatment helping? It sounds more like a shameless and disgusting deception.

It seems your viewpoint is strongly aligned with the conservative Supreme Court justices so it make sense you’re disappointed with actions of top Californian officials. In the first case you cite, Americans For Prosperity Foundation v. Bont

This type of “crisis” center’s main goal isn’t trying to help people, it’s to deceive them out of medical care

Okay so apparently you have beef about concealed carry permits and want more gun freedom. Any other examples that don’t involve gun ownership as that issue is way too debatable?

What’s next, The Alaskan state government is more effective than California because there are more hours of daylight in June?

Well I suppose it does depend on what’s being compared. If it’s the efficacy of government then yes it absolutely matters. If it’s comparing present stats because one is asthmatic and deciding where to live then government efficacy is irrel

I’d like to say its an interesting comparison in the way it presents things factually and yet a materially relevant omission I recognize makes me wonder how many omissions I don’t know about effect the other parts. Really on air quality the

The road crew is like the workers at an internet provider or maybe an isp, and the vast majority of the traffic is legal. That original analogy makes it seem like the verdict on tornado was already made, now we just need to grasp at argumen

Why does the Facebook vr world look almost like they copied the Nintendo wii stuff from 15 years ago that was itself using non-cutting and edge graphics at the time?

Yes that’s what I said… “ I get they are talking about in [a] particular year and perhaps want to emphasize the births aren’t simply delayed but the way it’s phrased is off putting”

I found their dissimilar wording peculiar the 8k gets the qualifier “permanent” but the 57 deaths do not. Glad to hear they would have been temporary deaths, perhaps similar to witches turning people in newts. I get they are talking about i

Cars seating is horrible and bad for backs. Trends, tradition and short term cost decide most design considerations not practicality or what’s best.

Okay so you’re saying NFTs are absolutely meaningless, what the holder solely owns is a 256 bit integer and absolutely nothing else? Anyway, in this case unlike debatably with nfts, there is concrete value tied to possessing knowledge of th

I’m pretty mixed about this type of optimization. From a pure business perspective it makes sense I suppose but somehow it also feels a bit dystopian as a user. But from an ML perspective it’s a very interesting read. it does seems pretty e

This is about how private companies work now that the project has been officially declared a “toxic entity”. But really did anyone really expect working on a money laundering project would be a good idea? Sure it was a new method of money l

384+92 is 476. 384 + 92 - 172 is 304. How does that add up to 528 or are apples and oranges being compared?

Why is it “supposed” to work that way? American society is structured such that a car is considered more or less a requirement. Is it okay to charge the max people will possibly pay for other requirements of living like medicine? Martin Shk

If gas prices were simply a matter of the costs going up, the oil companies would not have record profits. if the actual costs are added up, it transparently does not equal the end price by definition due to the record profits. Your comment

Look I am using Oreos as a general example but even gas prices do the same. Input costs may rise by x cents but the companies mark up prices by 5x because they can, not because they have a shortage. Gas prices are way higher than they shoul

There isn’t a shortage of many items that have had large price increases like oreos. There is no shortage on a lot of items but the companies see opportunity to raise prices at will in the current climate simply because they can

Err quite the opposite, recently corporate profits are at highs because part of the inflation has been price gouging. and they can do that because of lax regulations around mergers among other things

The word is not “Restart” it’s “continue” or “perpetuate”. the “other side restarting it” doesn’t make sense because from the perspective of the other side it was already restarted.

I think people are just not very aware of the past including their grandfathers generation these days. My grandfather was a college lecturer and would plan massive road trips each summer in the 60s to all the national parks. These days I do
