   I wonder if it’s a way for him to claim victory before ending the operation. Maybe it’s a way out.

   I’m not sure there should be a threshold. If the threat is real, like ebola, people will naturally adjust their behavior. If policy makers have to artificially restrict individual rights, it indicates that policies are being implemented bas

   It’s called the banality of evil. Monsters don’t have green fur and big teeth. They are ordinary people carrying out devastating policies. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eichmann_in_Jerusalem

   When I was a boy in the 1980’s I used to hear the phrase, “I may disagree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.” I haven’t heard it said in decades. As such, I find your comment extremely uplifting.

   I am reminded of this character study from 1941 about who goes nazi. https://harpers.org/archive/1941/08/who-goes-nazi/

   For the same reason we should be concerned about the digital currencies being researched and developed by countries around the world.

    Technically you’re right. They collect data on me and my behavior and then sell access to my screen real estate in an abstracted way. I am more than willing to pay for services in exchange for being exempted from adsense, and from being tra

    If google would agree to stop tracking me and selling my data, I would be willing to stop blocking ads. As it is, I don’t see why I should pay twice.

    it seems to me no one wants to admit that society and the economy are set up in a way that we need people at the bottom. when the lowest classes attain even the smallest increase in purchasing power, demand for goods and services soars and

    I’m not sure individuals -or- organizations can be fully trusted. It’s one reason for the 4th amendment, or the requirements for auditing of companies by independent accounting firms, or all sorts of laws restricting individuals, organizati

    I wish we had open source options for household appliances. It would be the best response to the planned obsolescence companies currently employ.

    There was a discussion in the democratic party at the beginning of the Biden administration about offering the first two years of community college for free, similar to what’s been done in Tennessee. This plan was scrapped after universitie

    Then the democrats should have passed legislation targeting the root of the college affordability problem, not a one-off. This legislation doesn’t solve anything.

    It’s not fair because it doesn’t solve the root college affordability problem. What about the students graduating a year from now and beyond?

    I wholeheartedly agree. I think a critical examination of the MBA degree, and the values it embodies, is long overdue.

    Also, if your child is taking an antibiotic, say for an ear infection, don’t give them milk and medicine at the same time. It upsets their stomach, and they will vomit it all back up… and then some.

    I think post-covid behavior problems are also big. Being locked down for two years was not good for kids. I think it’s possible to address these issues kids are facing while also avoiding the political land mines adults argue over.

    I’ve read that the rubbing alcohol is preferable to vinegar for disinfecting because vinegar can damage countertops.
