Rich people pay way more taxes than poor people. The top income earners pay for everything in this country and all the other countries.

Amazing the cognitive dissonance. Democrats say that people who oppose their strategies are racist, sexist, xenophobic, dumb, fascist, nazi, you name it. Republicans say that people who oppose their strategies are racist, sexist, xenophobic

What makes you think people haven’t thought about those things the same as you or more, and still disagree? I think every little life saved is an absolute victory, and many people (as demonstrated) share my sentiment.

It demonstrated nothing of the sort. The better candidate won and that’s about it. Even in the republican primaries, the best candidate won. What makes you think your opinion is above the system?

I think it’s very hard to say, and it just gets harder the more I think about it (like many things tend to). On one hand, if the condemning evidence can’t be provided by someone other than me, should the case be prosecutable? On the other h

I and many others think the government should have 0 business in my filing cabinet. That difference in world view might be what makes this topic more complex than you seem to think.

They’re not morally liable any more than the inventors of Kevlar or thermal imaging or the GPS. All technology that is useful for war will be used for war.

I can’t think of any Apple software that doesn’t get the job done, isn’t straightforward about its capabilities, and isn’t easy to use. Their whole shtick seems to be just that. A minority of people will always prefer to use competing produ

I think discussing this topic with too much fervor is a waste of energy. Nutrition science is hard because performing valid studies at large scale is close to impossible, so I’m left performing an argument from nature, being that eating thi

Your comment reads a bit silly to me. It’s like your child has control over this situation instead of you, and you’re trying your hardest to negotiate a good position for yourself. If your child doesn’t use the phone in the way you want the

I’d be more cynical still and ask, where is correct information found in the first place? Humans of all shape and size have biases. Most research is faulty, fabricated, or not reproducible. Missing information tells a greater story than exi

I have to be a bit of a buzzkill and say that this is all placebo. Your prompt might give the model context that gives it better token quality much in the same way that asking “How to swim?” is worse than “I’d like to learn the proper techn
