The former. People have been over-charged for destroying the property of others, in the example given. But my point was comparative. Also, to clarify, it should be difficult or impossible to charge someone for assault simply for destroying

Yes, in theory. Not so much noise, but speech. And specifically speech that you are engaged with, most likely. Versus speech to which you aren't paying much attention. Normal child development is uniquely contingent on the child hearin

Everyone doesn't get treated like shit. Most people respect and want cops. People whining about cops being mean to them, and their general dispositions, tends to think that their police interaction is a super special customer service e

Read assault laws. Most people think that assault is battery. It isn't. While I wouldn't comment on the event in question because I didn't see it, generally speaking people can't assault police anymore than they can civi

Critical thinking? GMAB. People would have to be taught how to critique research. Common critical thinking doesn't cut it, and in the example of politicized science substitutes for the craven "believe me or you aren't a criti

My bullshit is not bullshit and we need to stop anyone from challenging it because not bullshit shouldn't have to defend itself. Which we largely but imperfectly prevent, currently.

That's the same as saying that it's a bad idea to report on any public denial of wrongdoing. If there is no reporting of claims of innocence, than the accusation tends to stand as their guilt in the public mind. At that point, we

The problem that Musk is going to run into is that civilization blossoms from deeply rooted lies. Apart from necessary lies that lie at the core mechanics of civilization, anything remotely political has been long been vulnerable to outrage

Abrasion carved both the high relief sculptures and cut the megaliths from which they arise? Perhaps, I suppose. I don't know enough about the physics and control of the abrasive techniques referenced. Though, I'm always in favor

The Yemeni Island Socotra is a remnant continental island. That is, it is an artifact of a continent that no longer exists. When one digs into the history of Socotra going back about 8 million years iirc, I believe that there is logical evi

Given the tech that is the product of multiple major breakthroughs, I'd rate that to be doubtful. While I don't think that the following implies that robots existed, to my above point recall that Talos of Greek Myth is a robot. Wh

Other fields have a fairly firm scientific foundation. Whereas it is routinely pointed out by psychologists and psychiatrists that psych has no such thing. The field struggles to authoritatively explain the first thing about human thinking.

From what I can tell, the appropriate time to take VC funding is precisely at the exponential growth curve when there is not enough revenue to serve the high rate of new business. Not coincidentally, this may be when VC money is most intere
