   That take requires significant citation. A century of work says you’re wrong, and 3 years of attempting MMT has showed that’s wrong as well.

   This is the real reason for the push to ban TikTok. Economic protectionism for favored industries, particularly when those industries are the largest donors to the current party in power.

   That's exactly how old growth works - once it's gone, it's gone forever. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/gallery/2021/apr/16/... I promise, spend time in old growth vs forest

   I expect them to leave it alone. We leave ours alone and Canada is supposed to be the more enlightened ones.

   Canada cuts old growth. We don't. Until they quit, the import ban is very reasonable.

   I'm sure that there will be no negative repercussions from this, and that Iraqis will want to emulate everything about the USA. /s

   These remind me of finance people talking about tech. They use the right words but in semantically meaningless sentences.

   Groupchats likely caused the failure of SVB. Allowed for a lightning run.

    This is very accurate- I’m seeing a ton of very confident, completely wrong answers. Finance Twitter is likely a better source.

    Reactor going pop on the moon is a science experiment, not an biological tragedy. Big fan of this idea.

    Heavy handed police is a lot of it. So is more abandoned structures, which is an often-missing part of the conversation. The superstar cities don't have a lot of bandos that homeless people can hang out in anymore, Florida does.

    I disagree with this - subscriptions align the price to users services with the cost to create them. Better than pricing Windows XP at $300 or something like they used to, then using that one-off cost to pay for ongoing support, security fi

    Funny when this applies to Americans and not immigrant enclaves within America. Failure to integrate is a huge issue, and it's currently tearing the UK and Sweden apart

    The COVID response not including Medicare4All is the “Sandy Hook” of healthcare for me: if we didn’t do it with a Democratic Congress and President during a national pandemic, it’s not happening any time soon (like meaningful gun control po

    Sure. But recruiting scheduling coordinators do not. Those people would better serve society stringing up new HVDC lines, which the current model does not incentivize.

    I get this is a joke but the reason we find stuff in caves isn't that they _lived there full time_ it's that stuff was only preserved there. Try building a wood house on the shores of the ancient Mississippi and seeing if you can
