All that says to me is that basic income support had a beneficial effect on mental health in Germany, Finland, and Malawi. This isn’t like a drug trial, where the underlying system, the human body, is more or less the same. Each country is

You’re assuming I meant anything about checking against a database. I meant more that casings found at the scene should be compared to casing of bullets fired from guns of his known associates. Granted, even if you find such matches, you st

It’s a little different for guns, they’re more tightly controlled and there’s often paper trail of their purchase and licensing of owners, so your example doesn’t apply. I think there’s also the issue that you’re more likely to be murdered

Isn’t the first thing to do in such cases is to check who in his primary and secondary circles has a licensed firearm? I am not detective, but that makes sense to me.

Here’s the study, I think https://www.demogr.mpg.de/papers/working/wp-2025-035.pdf It would be better if they made it mandatory for everyone to respond to follow-up surveys, as the response rate differed enough to

Why not create more places to live instead of adding more housing to an existing place? Create more infrastructure, schools, clinics, shops, whatever. Create more jobs, hire more people for new places instead of having people compete for 2

Good. The current way of doing things is entrenched with systemic bloat, and actually discourages innovation. People who are leaving now will create opportunities to explore where that bloat exists, remove it, and figure out how to create n

There’s no authoritarianism like that observed in leftists ideologies because they insist that they’re inherently incapable of being authoritarian, or that their extremism is simply humanitarian. Importantly, any group that perceives an exi

There’s a lot of information available already, feel free to look it up. No one reasonable says that (legal) immigration is bad, what becomes concerning is mass, unsanctioned movement. I don’t discount the humanitarian crises, which is why

The article has interesting historical references, and is corroborated by a growing trend, https://www.npr.org/2025/10/22/nx-s1-5565134/amid-claims-tha...

Progressives are generally concerned more with inequity in all its forms as it concerns the global south, American poor are not a consideration unless they’re some kind race or gender minority. There’s also vested interest in ensuring Ameri

I think some people fear that the political or social status of protected classes may diminish by admitting that someone could have a worse life than them despite not being of a protected class. It doesn’t diminish for me, so I have no prob

Sure, but what’s the point of these adjustments? You were making a false equivalency between two different circumstances, and saying that there’s effectively no difference between them. I presented a scenario where the difference between th

I admit the scenario is contrived, but that’s to make a point. Feel free to construct your own scenario that’s not a non sequitur. But the E scenario is also fallacious, doesn’t matter if E is schizophrenic if the conspiracy is real. Maybe

Sounds great, how do you screen against someone who just hires someone to populate a repo for them? The answer is you can’t. Repo activity isn’t a real way to measure anything about a person’s ability. The only reasonable thing is to hire a

Okay I did, now let’s enumerate some similarities and differences. Here’s the setting: A is gay, and B is hetero. Both exist in a secular, democratic society where the majority religion has a damning view about being gay, but there are anti

It depends on the task at hand, that unspoken understanding can work against your best interests. In general, the NT way leads to stagnation and complacency for building and maintaining systems as conditions change. I am not saying one way

by nis0s 11mo ago
You’re simply wrong, if you can’t tell the difference then you’re unqualified to even say anything on this. Not because you don’t have lived experience or something, but because you cannot use simple logic and reasoning.

It shouldn’t interfere with the job market, but the sad truth is that NTs need to make everything into a social game because otherwise they can’t compete or survive.

Be that as it may, they’re still predicated on a set of underlying biochemical and physiological processes.

It’s the same thing as any condition which deviates from the set of characteristics considered “normal” for a given population. Eczema is a skin condition which happens to some people, it’s not something that happens in most people. But we

What’s dangerous about this idea? It’s simply wrong because let’s think back to why people formed nation states. The core ideas are related to cultural identity and protection for who you classify as your people. The Jewish people have alwa

I am sorry, but if you’re saying there’s no biological, physiological or neurophysiological evidence of these conditions then you’re just plain wrong. I cannot emphasize that enough.
