Namaskaram, I don't know of many part time engineering positions, but the trend is growing, e.g. [1]. However I'm confident that you could find a position that would pay you that salary for a more common 35-40 (and balanced compar

Furthermore, most meat eaters additionally eat plants too, and the animals they eat also usually are eating industrially farmed plants, which really makes the crop deaths argument silly.

The argument is that pasture raised cows is better than factory farmed cows. I am saying that in both cases the cows die.

If I understand correctly, then I would say it's your choice to perpetuate owning a pet, specifically a dog. And in fact, as pointed out elsewhere in this thread, with careful planning dogs can be plant based, and there are even synthe

The "humane" argument is flawed because in the end - factory or pasture - the animal is killed. Live a happy life and be slaughtered or a miserable life and be slaughtered.

From a strict vegan perspective, you're supporting the killing of other animals in support of your pet. Isn't that inconsistent?

Hot take: if you're a mediocre dev, maybe be worried; if you're in a niche and have deep expertise you'll be fine.

I don't think it would take an unprecedented amount of coordination, because not many people would even need to know the secret. During times of mass chaos there is a collective emotional and psychological understanding that is easily

Feedstock production is highly efficient. Grazing animals for meat is very inefficient in terms of caloric output. This is to say nothing about morality or even nutrition.

There's a vast difference in historical numbers of large herbivores roaming wild and the amount needed to supply demand for meat. If the current level of demand is constant, it becomes nearly impossible to supply as "grassfed&quot
