Also, almost all of those serious observatory telescopes don't have to worry about. Which is what we are talking about.

You believe there's no use in developing global cooperation to regulate issues like this? Because if so, we have far more to worry about than satellites.

It's an area that is plainly in the need for global regulation that currently has none.

Ok, then Tesla should really prove they can provide that or find ways to compensate those with land based astronomy tooling. They have done neither and have not communicated in any form that they want to.

Part of any games popularity is to have an exciting competitive scene and also have easy entrance for new players. Chess960 solves one of those, no-castling seems like a better solution on both fronts.

He does briefly address this as complicated for beginners to enter (which is true). Given that no-castling actually makes the game simpler, its worthwhile to consider it as an alternative.

I disagree he does sketchy things. I think he's one of the most benevolent mega-philanthropists out there who has dedicated his life to expanding democratic ideals and liberal values throughout the globe.

It is very often associated or motivated by that. He has become a boogeyman for many people with terrible motives.

Exactly. Yes, there were many members of the UK that became effectively less wealthy when the pound was devalued, but there were many members of other European nations that effectively became more wealthy. Why are we valuing one over the ot

Why is betting against the pound causing a massive financial disturbance in the economy? One could equally argue that the overvaluation of pound caused a massive disturbance in the economy.

Fox News has hired many democrats in the past. That doesn't mean their content doesn't meet the same muster of more professional news organizations that don't have narratives that are delivered from the top down.

Probably negligible. I mean, the company will still have 70+% of it's revenue/income just from it's flagship product.

They have to provide a risk-weighted return similar to the current average stock, otherwise they should be revalued to the point at which they would provide that.

There will never be a successful community without some level of moderation. It is better for us to define the levels of moderation than have a organization start adjudicating truth.

And why is a copout bad? If we a society decide that Twitter shouldn't be the arbiter of valid and invalid political advertising, why is them avoiding the issue entirely a bad thing?

Given how many fewer ads they have to deal with, that is probably true.

It is still shocking to me that in 2019 people still view Fox News and CNN as having anywhere close a mirror level of political bias.

It's much easier to adjudicate what is and isn't political than what is and isn't honest.

A better example would be something like the NBA's situation in China currently. If a government has the market power to determine what those in a private enterprise should be able to say, is that a situation that we accept?

If we create a system where only those who can pay are able to get their message across, is that really free expression for the millions who can't?

Well, American conventional media. It will be interesting to see how this policy extends internationally.
