You are thinking in the realm of theory. None of that works in the realm of reality. Creating a fake ID = super illegal. Credit cards: prepaid can be detected and blocked, same as the privacy.com ones - especially when the credit card is be

This works. And I do it. Too many unhinged people out there. Here in the US, I've found things in restaurants a couple of times and pointed it to the staff. It clears the liability for all involved, since no one can claim that the staf

The funny thing is, the most up voted comments on this topic don't even seem to be about the FA. They are mostly just 'generic advertising is bad comment/anecdote related to the title'. Another idea I had after reading t

Having read the article, it seems they are concluding a causality that isn't necessarily there. The whole study is based on: there's a correlation between advertising spend per capita and life satisfaction between countries in Eur

I agree with healthcare insurance being changed. I will say, just because it costs them more money doesn't mean they should legally be able to act on that. Many times someone from a certain religion might cost an employer more than som

You're also confusing something: that plenty of legal things are not socially tolerated. If a company came out saying 'sorry, we don't hire feminists'... they might... face consequences. Even if that is legal. Right now

Great. Personally, I've changed my mind on some very serious topics: death penalty, addiction, government regulations, capitalism, etc. In each case, it took someone patiently going over points to help me see better. It takes time for

I clicked through. Source material is about 200 pages. Linking to a news article is one thing. Linking to basically a book, without so much as saying why the book is good, is another. I'm not relying solely on what the OP says. But I&#

There's over 100 pages of material here. Why has this been submitted? What's interesting in it? These type of submissions attract the worst commentators; people who will talk about the topic based on what they can infer from a tit

Satire definition: "the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues." From Wikipedia: &quot

Good satire is entertaining. It does not help build bridges of communication between people who think differently. That's why I think it's looked down upon here. You are right on the /. point. :)

It has to do with the concept of government transparency. In the US, from what I understand, the founders of the country feared secret courts issuing secret sentences for secret reasons. So the idea is that almost all government stuff is pu

I didn't read it. But for some of us, silly inane comments that don't add to the conversation can detract from it. If that's what you are looking for, may I suggest reddit? On there, an article is posted and you'll have

The FA we are talking about is related to the completion of the construction of the first Fusion reactor by the end of this year. Also, fusion has only really been seriously considered AFAIK since the 70s (yes theoretical research happened

I said the greater freedom in America helped it win the cold war. Of course it is more nuanced than that. But that can literally be applied to everything and anything ever said - if someone said being outside jail is good or not being addic

Yeah, that's not a concrete example of the SPECIFIC cutting edge area of AI that china dominates development of. At least I couldn't find it. I gave one for the US. I've yet to receive one for China. All I've seen is: &q

If ... if ... if ... might 3 ifs and one might. Let's see: If my grandmother was male and if she was catholic, she might be the pope. I only had to use two ifs to get to that one. I'm really not sure what your point is. Are you se

Because it hasn't historically worked that way. This isn't a first to market huge advantage. Developing the plants is slow (many years) and the lag between super powers in cracking tech is generally only a couple of years (see spa

Wind and solar don't deal with peak energy use. See Germany vs France as an example.

I'm curious, when you say AI, what do you mean? To me AI is machine learning. And the US is leading in that area, the forefront of which seems to be self driving technology. Are there specific examples of cutting edge machine learning

I hope they succeed. We desperately need to adopt nuclear energy world wide. The success of such a project would pressure western governments into adopting the technology to stay competitive. Especially when the cost of a kilowatt hour plum

I think furthermore, not only is it fearmongering, it's actually wrong. What the article calls AI is just machine learning. And America leads the way on this when it comes to cutting edge. Look at self driving cars. It seems the articl

I'd say there's even a third option, the causality runs back AND forth (both good thoughts can lead to good outcomes as well as bad outcomes can lead to bad thoughts and vice a versa) Even in this third option there exist an infin

I'm not afraid of being pessimistic. I read the article title and wanted to see how accurate it was. If it was accurate, it would cause me, like a rational creature, to question my tendencies. I have list of pros and cons for all my pr

When I read the tile and skimmed through the article, I thought: define pessimism. I mean, I consider myself pessimistic, but what do THEY who designed the study consider pessimistic. I tend to find the fault in things, see how they are wro

Amazing, thanks for sharing. Can I ask why you think SK is putting such a prominent figure in jail over this? I mean this in the sense that, first you guys are doing the right thing and second I think here in the US we have a terrible track

Actually with ebay I can more easily trust. Because they don't co-mingle, I know that someone with 100,000 positive reviews on ebay is unlikely to sell a counterfeit. With amazon I don't have that trust, since even if the seller i
