This doesn't feel like that much of an accomplishment relatively speaking. It's a smallish rocket that went up and down. Very far away from landing something 100 times heavier from orbit.

(1) Perception is reality. The pie might be bigger and the US might be better off but that's not what people will act on. (2) Foreign debt is growing faster than the pie. It's an unsustainable situation. Debt as a percent of GD

Exporting business ownership when seen on a national level is just another form of debt. You're trading future production for stuff now. The fundamental problem is that the balance of goods flows into the US today. If debts and profi

The first 6 worlds in your cite are "a natural monopoly is a monopoly...". That competitors exist mean they're not a monopoly and therefore can't be a natural monopoly.

They aren't a natural monopoly. Lyft and Curb exist and so do legacy taxis and car services.

I don't think this helps as much as you may think it does. Some things can't be undone once done and they make people's lives much worse.

I interviewed at a place that made the software to track blood as it moved around. It's a regulated thing to make sure that the blood stays cold and that they can track who donated. Anyways, the point is that the guy who interviewed

Chronic Lyme Disease is a popular choice for hypochondriacs (or maybe they're actually right, who knows?) so it gets raised eyebrows when people think they have it.

This really isn't true anywhere in the US. The highest spending per pupil will be the city school district. The people who live there may be relatively poor but there's a lot more commercial real estate to tax.

It does make sense. You don't want archers to burn energy & ammo by firing too rapidly or before the enemy is in range. I agree that sitting there for minutes holding the bow taut is dumb. But something like a Attention, Nock, Re

IMHO that's the key point against the "no volley" idea. Up until the modern age no soldier did anything on their own. You act in formation and repeat what you've been drilled. A company of archers is probably the same.

You wouldn't hold the bow drawn. The archers would nock their arrows and at the command would draw and loose the arrow. That would result in them all shooting at roughly the same time. Just a second or so delayed from the command.

They definitely can. Here's an example when I tried it: Me: I'm struggling with some things today and feel like eating a bunch of food to make myself feel better. can we talk about it? Deepseek: Absolutely, I’m here to listen. It

I don't think they miss anything. These guys are at the apex of their power and are shaping the world at just about the highest level. This all seems like copium to explain why they're doing stuff the author doesn't like.

I'm the opposite. I feel like the core essence of me has mostly stayed the same. I've picked up more skills and learned a lot from life experiences. But it's more like getting new clues to a mystery than a change. In othe

They aren't unresolved. They were dropped by the state. The initial prosecutor was disbarred and (briefly) went to jail for his misconduct.

This is somewhat disingenuous. Something like half of the grant is handed over to the University as overhead. Much of that is legit to cover things like labs but a lot of it goes to a cover a massive amount of administrative bloat. Also,

Never is a long time. The more capital, skill, and energy intensive manufacturing becomes the more likely it will end up in the US. As an example, you don't want your 100 million dollar t-shirt making machine in Bangladesh. You want

This is what I mean. Why is everyone so weird about it? It's hormonal birth control for men. Even if it works for only 65% of them it's better than nothing since it can be tested to see if it's working easily.
