Congress will no doubt respond after the November election. Until then Abbott is the only adult in the room.

I would counter with the comment that threatening to leave NATO was his strategy to get them to contribute more of their GDP to the military budget. https://breakingdefense.com/2020/10/trump-admin-sets-allied-...

As a person Trump was a shitshow. Had he listened to feedback from his advisors and I dare say the general public he would still be in office. His policies which include foreign relations, immigration, energy and monetary though were pro Am

Yup hard to say. Thankfully citizens are seeing the reality of his anti-American policies and will make their displeasure felt at the polls this November.

Just got back from a flight and the TSA was remarkably polite and efficient as was Delta Airlines. I do agree with the consensus of the majority of the comments here that the TSA has outlived their purpose.

Been live with Zulip at work for just over a year now. Works great for our use model and love the fact that we are able to self host - which also helps greatly with our compliance requirements. The code is rock solid as far as server stabil

Yup. There should be no politics in any court. Only law.

Conspiracy theory? He did everything in his power to get liberals into political power. Yes he is a very large threat to Western society, the United States of America and world peace. The current state of affairs should be the proof anyone

Based on the the contrast of your text to the background this kind of factual comment is not popular here lol. I think stop global warming at all costs segment here as well as society as a whole would be better served by getting behind init

Cheaper for the school districts themselves maybe. I’d like to see an honest article that included the overall cost to taxpayers as well.

We use Zulip at work with about 70 daily active users. We evaluated other popular competitors both open source and paid. Zulip came out on top because it was spot on with our use case and integrated easily with our infrastructure. Since we

FB is toxic. I have found HN and the super intelligent people here have taught me think a bit before I actually write a comment. There is no such culture available on FB. Like thinkers encourage extreme thoughts. Unwanted comments to or fro

>chiefly culturally conservative prude The difference in me (chiefly culturally conservative prude) and the liberal cancel culture is that I won’t try to silence someone’s choices based on my values. You may listen to whatever you want a

Calling people ignorant because you don’t agree with their opinions or reasons is a non starter for constructive discussions. Using IPV4 has never ever caused me a problem and I will never ever run out of addresses. I prefer to focus my tim

In Oregon the new building code mandates that all air ducts and air handlers be located in conditioned space. Really good common sense regulation imho.

So what? Sounds like you should be part or a dictatorship rather than a democracy. If you support this idea then feel free to donate to the cause. Not trying to be an ass but the so what attitude does not tend to further constructive discus

I agree. However I am fed up with the cdc, youtube, facebook and others trying to control the narrative in any way they can. For instance not considering past infection as equal to a vaccination. Follow the science or don’t but do whatever

Sure thing. Insurance. My long term insurance costs are going to be reflective of how good a job I do evaluating who I rent my vacation home to. If I make good choices my insurance costs are probably going to stay reasonable. If I continual

Welcome to a world where everyone is judged to be equal to the lowest common denominator unless proven otherwise. Do you have a lock on your front door? How do you determine who you invite into your home? Enabling discriminative behaviors d

Of course not. Same goes for their general appearance. Just saying that there needs to be a way to rate risk. If the ratings are reliable and can’t be gamed then that is one and probably the best method.

Does Airbnb offer other alternative methods of identifying riffraff? I don’t use the service but I wouldn’t unless they offered a way for me to profile customers. Background checks and/or ratings would probably suffice. Name and pictur

I agree with that. My point was simply that if bitcoin were successful it could provide an untraceable haven that the government would have a difficult time in taxing.

Socialism (noun): a political and economic theory of social organization which advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole. Sounds like big government to me.

Maybe my understanding of socialism is incorrect then. When I think of socialism the face of Bernie Sanders comes up. That equates to me of government subsidized everything. As anyone knows the government does not have anything it does not

I saw the title and at first thought there was something new in the world of cutting technology - something on the order of a self lubricating metal cutting bit.

There are plenty of laws that affect someone’s freedom as you pointed out. I’m talking about Constitutional rights such as free speech or the right to bear arms. If you don’t agree with those provisions there is a method to change them and
