This administration is letting Qatar build an airbase on US soil. I think it’s wiser to believe what people do more so than what they say, or what others say about them.

> Yes, I'd rather live in a "Western" country than any of the "adversaries" It’s important to reflect on why you say this because when push comes to shove, the moral relativism rings a hollow tone. The preceding

This tells you who really wears the pants in the relationship. Western nations are screwed because their bedrock is enlightenment, but their adversaries have no such ideals to be held up to. The rule of law that many such organizations enjo

I get there’s disenchantment with the status quo, and a desire to try something new because all the old tools just seem to break the machine even more than fix it. But what’s always troubled me is that there’s no real difference between a r

Maybe there’s something I am overlooking, but it seems to me that society will likely reorganize around activities of value to human life. So, perhaps there will be less programmers, but maybe more caregivers, and so on. A lot of the anti-

This article is written from an innocent perspective because it assumes that shouting away your ideological opponents is motivated by a personal need to preserve identity, or prevent harm, to yourself or others. That may be true sometimes,

The internet has been utilized efficiently by many, but it’s essentially the new printing machine, salon, public square, college lounge, and speakeasy all rolled into one. All the old places where propaganda or ideology spread found its pla

This initiative is meaningless if it doesn’t create jobs in the range where most employees are being shed in this new economy. It doesn’t mean that everyone needs to work for Google, just that FAANG companies need to invest in all sorts of

Ironically, a libertarian or liberal democracy allows intellectuals who disagree within the overall framework, which is usually justified by some argument from enlightenment ideals. The works of the Cathedral are useful in more ways than on

Interesting article, but I’ll just point out that the model of the subconscious-conscious axis described here is more attuned to neurotypical behaviors.

Interesting to note that India prior to that was majority Muslim. I also wonder how much of this Anglo-Saxon depravity resulted from their own history with Viking raiders. People have been doing nothing but passing on their traumas to other

People who work in defense in any country are neither fascists nor Nazis (whatever that means in that country), necessarily. But for obvious reasons it’s advantageous for external agents to make the young or talented of a given country avoi

Sorry, but I call bullshit. The day someone gets hired for jobs that are for MBAs without an MBA, or for consulting jobs at big consultancies without prestige or college-degree schooling, I’ll believe any of this tripe. No one is hiring eng

I agree, and I want humane solutions for people who go through this.

Please note that someone giving you a quantitative context isn’t necessarily saying don’t care. But it’s important to be mindful of how people use words in the media to describe certain issues because it benefits them politically or financi

Different US states have implemented useful measures for helping homeless people, but states which are struggling with their implementation have other issues as well. Border states in particular have illegal immigrants to contend with as we

Disagree that it’s a growing problem, there are lots of states dealing with it correctly. Look at the article, for example.

I think the article points out some useful ways to deal with the problem at hand.

You would think that since DUI operators present a greater social problem, both in numbers and potential to cause harm, there would be all sorts of active campaigns against such an issue. But the present reality is that some issues have gre

I am not saying it’s okay that anyone should be homeless, but it’s baseless to call homelessness a crises for the U.S. The homeless population accounts for 0.23% of the total U.S. population, or about ~771K people. https://endhom

Calling someone else’s prophet an Antichrist is very self-serving, though I get the reason why someone would do it. The people of the Abrahamic faiths will just have to reconcile with the fact that to God they’re all the same, more or less.

I am surprised that you think lack of poverty is the only thing which keeps such factors at bay. But to address the main premise, only about 32% of the population makes $50K or less, that’s counting individuals not couples. A couple with $3

There’s not enough empathy for the gifted and talented weirdos who get bullied by their peers at a pre-school age for being differently abled. But I don’t know enough about the program in question to say whether or not it really was for gif

There’s so much folly and hubris packaged into the idea that you can consider LLM knowledge optimal or complete, maybe it is for CRUD work.

It’s understandable, but I doubt you’re hiring in North Korea or Iran.
