I reckon concrete is necessary, but how much does it harm the economy? I can't recall a barrier in history that didn't prevent food from reaching to the right people and triggering bribes. But the main driver in peace is to get pa

No, don't do that: - supportedsource.org requires you to put your code under proprietary license, which is bad because it's not open-source (If someone wants to fix a bug in your software, they can't do it). - It is absolutel

A model against this would be to announce that the first million copies will be at a 50% markup. It would mean that Nintendo (or Apple or whatever consumer-land vendor) can capture the added value, while using moderate production lines, str

I can't do that. Partly because confidence is not me; But partly also because I'm afraid of discovering, after 15 years struggling to interest women, that the answer was that simple. Given how butthurt I am with the topic, I admit

Lack of confidence is highly linked with being constantly told off for being "a privileged". I regularly have to apologize for getting a degree, and if politics could stop blaming the rich, that would actually address the issue. P

Leftist parties are spewing hatred just as much as FN does. It's just that you don't notice it, because you identify to the minorities' cause. For example it's now forbidden to show a nativity scene in a public space in

Are you asking "If those groups changed, would you come back to centrist voting?". Yes, my voting is only based on the womens' right criteria: I would vote for any party which doesn't propose to add up more rights to wom

I've considered it, then researched stats about women and inequality because they didn't match my experience. All I've seen was a gross exaggeration of women's case: For example it's always the gross average of wage

Thank you, I wouldn't go as far as deserving a kudos, but it's just better if leftists can get the whole picture too. Because, all in all, I agree with leftists that the poor and disadvantaged need help. So thank you for your incl

The girlfriend is an example, it's a proxy for "fixing my life". All my life I've been shamed by leftists, mostly because I'm a white male from a good Christian family and succeeded at schools. It has had impact on

All the other parties' programs say they will add up to laws in favour of women. FN doesn't say anything: It's more than I wanted to hear. Women don't currently have the same positions as men, but they currently have equ

You're right, that's why I rally to FN. Your comment says you're incapable of compassion because you conflate my case with your sweeping generalizations, and your comment shows you only see bad things in your opponents, to wh

I'm GP: The race of the person is a data point, because it is entirely probable that the rapist identifies to Daesh. Remember the 8 terrorist attacks we've had in France between 2014 and 2015 and the Cologne rapes: It's entie

Out of topic: I saw your other comment, I can't upvote it because it's dead (probably for other reasons), but thank you very much for your testimonial, support and encouragement.

Lol that comment could come across as insulting ;) Is it? I'll assume it's not. First, you're trying to present it as a problem with me, instead of a problem with society. Although well-intentionned, it is often a liberal bia

What proves you that I don't deserve a better consideration? It is certainly possible from what I said to depict me as a bad guy through generalizations, but that would only be generalizations. What if I did give a lot and kept being t

Low factory jobs may come back to US, hopefull with better pay than in China and selling gadgets at a higher price point, while China starts focussing on producing for their own population. I look at this quite optimistically, as it makes e

Perfect example: Brendan Eich, former CEO of Mozilla, who was perfectly competent but fired for having donated to a gay or non-gay cause (I don't remember which one). This kind of opinion dictatorship has to end.

Gamers are the only ones we have pictures of. We don't know what happens to the rest of the population, especially politically-involved people, and especially people who investigate on Hillary Clinton.

This doesn't prove they are guilty. That's the problem with plea bargain: Scientific analysis costs a lot, even to prove obvious things, and most don't have the money to purchase that. Hence: 95% people in jail aren't pr

Which state would reckon being a police state? To determine whether it is, we need to look at facts. 95% prisoners are there on plea bargain, which means they have never been proven guilty (They might just not be able to afford analysis); 1

Indeed. For example concerning glasshouse gases, we need to come back to 1990's emission levels because that's what the Earth can absorb. The problem is, we're about 1bn more, our levels of consumption are still soaring, and

Google could have spread the Beta using an invitation-only scheme (Remember Gmail? That's how they controlled the load). Exclusive invitations are more inclusive than a US-centric approach. Customers get fed-up with US-centric approa
