You mean, move fast and break things? This was usually seen as a good thing in a certain culture. Maybe the whole current discussion (here and everywhere) is the two cultures clashing?

In this particular situation it seems reading only the headline was the sane option.

But on my Android I got no Threads. True, IG tries their best to convince me to install it. Maybe I don't have it because my IG was created before times?

What makes the US more chaotic (and UK to some extent and probably more) is the political system first-past-the-post which does nothing to promote collaboration. Quite the contrary the winner does its best to crush every sprout of the loser

The whole society functions on a set of agreements. Some get codified in laws, many not. And as soon as some of those rules, laws or habits, get constantly broken, it means the society has changed. Now what? Do you accept the new change, or

The important difference that you mentioned in your comment as well is: the French problems lie in the realm of possibilities, while the US problems are in the present. So the comparison doesn't really hold. Maybe it's also helpin

I think the original argument was, if you were a massive dem, you'd be possibly facing some speed bumps. Hopefully not, but doctors are humans as well. And pets don't vote anyway so they should receive a much milder treatment (aga

The problem with that is, I have more than one interest. So any algorithm will make a salad out of that and never hit me with what I want. Even if this particular session was about topic X they will still fill it with proposals from yesterd

There are just too many who yearn to move up to the "finally afford food and house" higher group. I don't see them mentioned much in politics.

It's definitely not an easy answer. Cutting the involvement, or the support given by the state in everyday lives can have about any support for the individuals. And this goes beyond the impersonal numbers of the "tax money",

It's important to look at the competition as well for this. I think we can all agree that streaming is here to stay. But how are the others faring here? In a more and more fragmented landscape, Netflix still has the fattest offering. A

Then, how could a business identify its (or market's) trend-setters, enthusiasts, or whatever we call them, which will push towards something new? I see this as essential for either making the business better, shinier, or to avoid losi

I only know one active hunter and boy does he brag - if only given the occasion. So maybe the people you mention are just being afraid to be judged for their true ideas? Because either way, you can always go in the nature, and so many peopl

This type of answer is called "strawman argument" - when one refutes an argument which was not presented at all. Let's try again.

Generally speaking, any law is only good if there's consensus in upholding it. Because we write laws to simplify the implementation of the general (societal) intent, not to design the future society (although this may follow as seconda
