What's changed about bureaucracy and decision-making in government that makes it safe now? Should only collapse-proof nations build nuclear plants? If it looks like a collapse is coming, should they decommission them early? I get the b

That's great. I'd probably subscribe if I still kept up with stuff like that. If that sub were defining things, you would be right. But the people they're making fun of are defining things. My vote for the new axis goes to in

Pretty much yeah. Any coverage (left or right!) of him from now on will include this stuff and paint him in that light. I think he's one step away from people disrupting his events and not being able to speak on college campuses.

You're posting this anonymously because you know that's not true. Right wingers are, by definition, the people who speak out against the woke insanity. That's how the culture war works.

You're thinking of morality. Ethics are just the rules that an organization follows. It's more about process, expectations and standards than it is about any particular moral imperative.

I make the argument in the book[1] that no, you shouldn't ever bother to learn CSS. [1] http://www.yousuckatcss.com (it's PWYW)

The pitch is basically "Tailwind without all the tooling"[1] so I'm excited to hear what you think. [1]: https://cavepaint.github.io/cavepaintcss/

If you can't compare, why not try contrasting? The differences in their cases should tell you exactly what the US government cares about. It's not citizenship and it's not journalism.

It's particularly bad because it's a pattern that people need to know about. Being trapped politically somewhere like that happened to both Snowden and Assange.

Rat food or slow food? If rats get dumber from eating any human food then this study hasn't said anything.

I'm not normally one to stand in the way of vitriolic hyperbole, but we were talking about "no comment" vs what was actually said. I am on the "no comment would have been worse" team. Please don't sign me up fo

> A treadmill is a dangerous piece of equipment. Exactly. The only thing that's different now is it's a dangerous piece of equipment with a popular brand name. The people who are upset about this are going to be really upset wh

You're off here by millions and millions of dollars. This case is worth much, much more in the court of public opinion to Peloton than in actual court. People generally agree with the first version of the story they hear. In 2021, sayi

I'm agreeing. I'm saying the three months is just as bad as (or worse than) their three hours, if you consider that we live for decades and they live for days.

If you adjust for lifespan, we probably do worse overall.

The Earth's atmosphere is shaped like a flame, not a big sphere[1]. It's so huge that the Moon moves through it, dragging along a little faux-atmosphere with it. It's surprising that heavier O2 molecules can get out there,

Covid and the lockdowns both might be causing the effect. So you have one group that has just Covid and then one group that has both. Then you compare the outcomes and see if the just-Covid group has the effect too. But my comment was kinda

I like this one too.

The proper control group would be people with COVID who didn't go through the lockdowns.

Yep, that was basically what was going on in his head. He was compelled to go there and gamble but had some control over how. The whole thing reminded me of a methadone clinic.

That's the old way of doing it. Now you open it years later on a stream in front of thousands of people.

He probably was a gambling addict. They develop weird routines like this to deal with it. I knew a guy that would just walk in and play one round of roulette with everything he had planned to spend there, then walk out win or lose.
