[citation needed]. US claims that’s true, but everyone who remembers Iraq knows US loves a good lie. China, on the other hand, explicitly declares they won’t invade. China also doesn’t have much to gain by invading, and everything to los

Generally agree, except that if you look at statistics, you’ll find that work in US military isn’t particularly dangerous. US never fights against enemy that’s actually dangerous.

There are ethical concerns about abortion - eg whether knowingly giving birth to a sick child is ethical - but the part that’s being discussed isn’t ethically complicated at all. It’s the same situation as with anti-vaxers - on one side th

Like someone who can understand basic facts around us? We are already changing, because our way of interacting with the world has fundamentally changed. “Great Filter” - I’m guessing you might want to google that one. Suffering - let me

Why would you want it to mess with sandboxes? It’s a build system. There are other mechanisms for sandboxing, no need to reinvent the wheel. Basel is as non-standard as it gets - essentially yet another Google’s case of NIH - but apart fr
