The important thing it seems is that his myth a part of our stories, and who we are, throughout a large part of the world. Myths tell us about ourselves. The sad thing is when people distort or weaponize myth to control others for personal

Our disagreement here is just an indicator of how bills need to be written in a different plain English way so that laypeople like us can mutually understand it (I'm assuming you're a layperson like me) How do you reconcile your u

It's beyond me why you're so desperately trying to attribute and/or uncover some hidden additional meaning to my comment. Like everyone, Ive many opinions and views. Some of mine are that we're being exploited by China,

Combating [bad thing] actually helps [bad thing]. That was never said nor do I hold that stance. If you really are concerned about [bad thing] let [bad thing] be unopposed. Let [bad people] do [bad thing]. That was never said

You know what happens when you ban a young person from doing something? They grow resentful and sympathize with the bad thing. If you shelter a young person, they leave and may never return. Banning Tiktok would be the biggest strategic mis

Just read the bill for yourself if you want to cut through the propaganda, that's what I did. The bill is awful. It gives the Secretary broad sweeping authority to access everything about everyone who they think is "suspicious&quo

Not to be rude but your website looks like it's run by stoner bros who would treat my money as a joke. It doesn't really instill confidence

Count me among the many who prefer the superior UX that PayPal provides. They're also excellent as a singular source for managing my subscriptions. If I ever forget what I'm subscribed to or want to cancel things, you can do it al

Well I put my foot in my mouth here and apologize for insulting any uncertainty; these are new technologies so uncertainty is normal of course. In retrospect I tend to communicate things online in a much more careless way

This is such a vague comment that it's pretty near impossible to reply to in a very constructive way. By my estimation it seems probable that we'll end up in the near future with some Jira integration that has an "auto fix&qu

I don't think this is "terrifying" to 3D artists any more than github copilot is terrying to us haha, I'm not sure why we engineers have this tendency of imagining every other industry as being populated by superstitious

Communication is a two way road. When you're talking about a sensitive topic and people don't know the context of you who are, don't be surprised when you are interpreted in a negative light. Based on your schoolyard dismissi

You're right. However they did say they "ask" not "tell"; it was not necessarily a demand. It's hard to know exactly how the conversations went

It's only disheartening to me because woman live in a society where men perpetually behave like we know what's best for them. What you're reading as aggression, I'm reading as a reasonable response to a perfectly plausib

Maybe I'm being overly generous, it seems like it may be possible for this kind of thing to be more of a request out of support/concern for a loved one's health, rather than one of control or knowing better than a woman. It h

Except that GPT can and does produce good results even to experts, just not all the time. So your claim of "IFF" is unnecessary hyperbolic contrarianism

While we're pointing out extreme outliers out of context to the discussion, water can also remain liquid well below 0c https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercooling

you may as well ask why 100% doesn't represent "half". Fahrenheit is best thought of as a range from 0 to 100, the numbers outside of which are extreme outliers

One thing I've come to learn is that American formats are human-friendly rather than machine-friendly. Our date system is like the Fahrenheit system; it works well when thinking like a human. in Fahrenheit, you just think of it in term

Sadly this is not federal law and as far as I know Florida is not a state that honors paying out unused PTO. You're living in a deep red state so this is sadly unsurprising. https://www.wenzelfenton.com/blog/2021&#
