Because the system is designed to allow these people in a gray zone, so they do not have access to the same rights as citizens and therefore can be exploited. The problem is not illegal immigration. It's just a political football. Our

I live in the czech republic and this is the way the older generation is here. Many older couples will have the same meal on the same day of the week every week. So not the same meal every day, but the same meal every Monday, a different on

This is why I think ai is basically the death of startups as we know them. Only big players can even take a swing. No more underdog garage startups, unless you're just downstream getting dorty bath water from the big boys. Ai all aroun

There are a good number of stable configurations in the 3 body problem, it's just that they are incredibly rare in nature.

Imo college sports is a huge driver of this, as schools are more often seen as sports franchises these days than actual educational institutions.

In states like Kentucky a d Oklahoma? Think again. These places are overwhelmingly trumpy. The nation as a whole barely voted him in, but in many red states his numbers are very high. My home county in Tx voted 80% Trump.

The culture that I live in here in the Czech Republic would paint your statement as pretty false. The police here are extremely laid-back and it's pretty easy to get away with petty thievery, yet crime is exceptionally low because peop

Here in czechia they still do oral exams where you sit in a chair in front of an instructor and they ask you questions which you have to answer by speaking. I don't think there's any better way to show actual content mastery than

Replace healthcare with literally any public service and you start to get pretty close to the fundamental reasons why America is so broken.

I mean we Americans have literally already forgotten Nazi Germany, or maybe we were never really taught it in a way that was meaningful.

The upper classes have extracted growth from a slowing curve by carving more and more out of the middle and lower classes. To them it looks like growth, but it's really just stealing from the bottom to pad the curve.

Exactly this. The bill has now come due for our far from enviable education system. We have incurred an unbelievable amount of cultural debt and now the bill is coming due.

Obama kicked the failing can of neoliberalism down the road. He could have very easily bailed out the American people directly but chose not to do that and as such I feel like he alienated liberal Americans as much as he did conservative on

What a dumbfuck article. It's essentially a gossip-rag level story based on a few random and meaningless tweets from a couple of billionaire douchebags.

Spellcheck is an absolutely perfect example of what happens with technology long-term. Once the hype cycle is over for a certain tech, it gets left to languish, slowly degrading until it's completely useless. We should be far more outr

Yep. Replacing google assistant with Gemini before feature parity was even close is such a fuck-you to users.

I think it works until it doesn't. The nature of technical debt of this kind means you can sort of coast on things until the complexity of the system reaches such a level that it's effectively painted into a corner, and nothing bu

Also, don't forget to factor in the reality that many Chinese people live at and expect a far lower standard of living than Americans do. Americans by in large are some of the most spoiled and entitled people on this planet who think t
