What retail shop honestly saves you time? Does waiting in line at Walmart save you time? Yes, you have the option of checking the expiration in line, but is anyone really shopping at Walmart for the time savings?

I don't believe in racism. Only genetics and statistics. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_intention... Apparently, Congo is in the 50 most violent countries. That's also recent. It has no ac

Nobody says the savages had it coming, but whenever you have the equivalent of a government or society of serial killers, human decency has certainly a right to tear that structure down. Being "indigenous" is not a get out of jail

Compare it to the deadliness of the preexisting tribes and it's an obvious improvement. Obviously no match for the reasonable sensitivity of society of today. Feel free to believe the common lie that every indigenous was a graceful pea

True. Otherwise the "Internet of Things" becomes the "Botnet of Things" as time has already shown. However, once a botnet is used for sex trafficking, it's sure to be taken much more seriously.

"Colonialism can be blamed for so much though." True but one thing they can't be blamed for is the lack of infrastructure before they got there. Knowing that, they can't be blamed for the lack of infrastructure built aft

Amazon is the equivocal of the retail end. Any sufficient and provable complaint to Amazon will result in a refund.

This is why you should generally: 1) Review all negative ratings prior to a purchase 2) Refuse to buy anything that's less then 4/5 stars.

It's hard to imagine this won't collapse into some terrible middle eastern war. If they can't cut "dividends" to their stakeholders, they get really angry and there's a war. Or they sell the company, burn throu

Indeed, how can anyone? Maybe one could build some models to counter for internal biases, but at this point that's probably the very best one could hope for.

Upvoted you, but as much as I hate Facebook, at least they fall into the major influence that has difficulty evading media attention. One wonders about all the big conglomerates "fundraising" for candidates and "advising&quot

Twitter sucks since it started caring more about creating interaction no matter what the cost. They don't believe in good for all anymore.

I like your thinking, but all of this is assuming that runtime for something stays precisely the same no matter what. Most operations are at least reasonably parallelizable, and I would argue that cryptocurrency depends largely parallel ope

Are all the high profile accounts using multifactor auth? In a way that isn't tied to an SMS?

Possible the thought is that in a country where online transactions are not well monitored, it might take a while to be traced down. Personally, I don't understand how one time use money cards would have any preventions to prevent the

Generally the true winners in the war are the ones that supply both sides. Numerous companies did this - some I surmise, with the blessing of the US government!

This is scarcity. It's caused by growing demand in population, and dwindling supply with less people building homes. The equitable solution is probably to split up land more, and let people convert houses to condos and the like.

You could all wear "Winnie the Pooh China" shirts. If you get kicked out for those, that will really be the shit hitting the fan for them. That's not even protest. That's simple freedom of expression.

Who really cares? If China's totalitarian soft power is being displayed at conferences, they can all burn so far as I'm concerned.

Texas in so many ways scares me, but the fact that many of their laws have expirations actually makes sense.

And who will guard against them breaking their own rules? Who will watch the watchmen?

I like your optimism, but I've failed to witness a law that has never been twisted into some gross contorted display of what it was normally used for at least once.

Any satisfactory system will be alterable by (a) inflationary practices (b) those scheming to take advantage of loopholes in 10 or less years.

It's typical corporate behavior. Facebook is the same way. Talk about how concerned they are about privacy while selling as much of your information as humanly possible. Or talk about how valuable human rights are, but censor everybody
