your brain is only fighting it because it's expecting capitalization, the same way parens put new lisp users off and javascript has difficulty shedding its semicolons; it's all just struggling to let go of something that was drill

Presuming most people are stupid is arrogant, all people do stupid things, all the times, by necessity: It's the most energy-efficient way to figure out what's actually important to learn. All of us, without exception, start out

I'm sorry but no. The law is the minimum level of enforcement for a working society, not an ethics guide. You're allowed to do better than wait for the situation to go from multiple suicides to a PR crisis before taking action. If

How about the supply chain that would move equipment and labor to and from the moon? How about the debris this would leave behind around both bodies? How long can this be done before the Earth's environment is affected? Will our descen

Of course! But if the universe is the result of all the quantum field interactions, what if there's a quantum field that, on its own, brings the consciousness interaction, and it manifests in ways that are computationally prohibitive f
