Please give an example of a statutory compliance item that "changes in real time". That's not the way regulations work. Your compliance is measured against a fixed version of legislation.

Frankly, that passphrase should already have been established when you were a kid: it would have been used for if a stranger / unexpected person needed to give you a ride on behalf of your parents.

What do you consider shameful about this? On the surface it looks like Maria fits the mold of previous winners pretty well other than perhaps her efforts are confined to her nation and have less global impact, but that isn't a requirem

And yet even here it's not entirely factual -- the correct term is Democratic Senators. "Democrat" is a shortening often used for partisan purposes.

Egg, meet face. Pretty funny that this was obviously "Google, find posts that prove my point" with nary a further shred of investigation.

It sounds like you should read the report. "Life sucking for everyone" is not equal to the government of the day targeting a racial group for the multiple negative policies that were enacted. What level of injustice do you ascrib

Apparently absent from Gee's approach: reductions to administration and management. When a university cuts $800k from its library and keeps chartering jets for executives you know this is not going to be about what is best for society

Some news isn't valuable anymore. In the world we're going towards, wouldn't it be fair to expect that reliable/verified news will increase in value? Similarly, what is the true value of local news that would otherwi

It is bizarre that you don't think safe workplaces are a right. The life situation that leads to this view is equally fascinating and concerning.

That's true, but you can support a land tax without the other tenets of Georgism. It's unusually reductive.

I agree, it feels like NASA has been thrown in to create a veneer of respectability for these conclusions. NASA does publish regular sea level assessments ( https://climate.nasa.gov/vital-signs/sea-level/ ) so perh

Kyoto was in 1995 and predicted 1.5-4.5 degrees of change in the mid-21st century. Hardly "12 years out" mate. What has become more serious is that the incoming data and predictive models are starting to line up with greater accu

You appear to be making up your own narrative here. In reality, climate science has gone from somewhat uncertain (around 1995: Kyoto) to progressively more certain as measurements have confirmed modellable outcomes. Our need to change our b

It's hard to see a policy solution for this: if you're an authorized passenger for that seat you'd also be eligible to fly a plane and wreck it when you're not a passenger. There's no material reduction in risk (ot

In flood prone parts of Australia it is quite common to list "property sits yy meters above 19XX flood level" as a premium signal to the risk averse. I would suspect that this isn't standard as most properties are worse off b

At some point this is banging-head-against-wall grade stuff, so I'll probably stop here. You're in the right area on the sales tax example, but it suffers from the same belief construction and expression issues. Let's play y
