But these ultra rich people don't have a hundred billion dollars in a bank account, they just own a percent of a company. So what you're really saying is a person isn't allowed to own a certain fraction of a company once it

If we accept the maximum that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic", then c++ is indeed magic. It's so advanced that one of the worlds foremost experts in the language(herb sutter) has determi

Theoretically you could do it with just wheel rotation data which wouldn't change conditions frequently like roads might. There's probably only one spot in the world where you can start driving, go around a somewhat circular road

What are you even talking about? You're vaguely referring to one city's animal control. Can you name the city? Because if you just Google "animal control uniform", there are zero results showing what you describe. Most u

The conclusion is as true as the study shows. The conclusion was based on the questionnaire given to cops and their spouses in 1991 in some small town, those were the results. It's on other people who want to expand that to argue that

Pretty much never unless you live in a jurisdiction that won't punish you or send you to the appropriate people to be punished. If you're Russian and want to never step foot out of Russia and only attack American systems, you can

Loose dogs can injure or kill random people they come across. Why would you mention kittens when approximately 0% of their time is spent dealing with kittens? I have no idea what animal control outfit you're talking about, but maybe th

Ok, I think the situation is different when you have 8 cars which are for driving. It's not really fair to compare per vehicle costs when you're dividing your usage up among 8 vehicles whereas most people are dividing it among 1 o

Oil changes are cheap. A lot of places will put your tires on for free or cheaply if you buy tires from them. Assuming the car is free, the cost of car ownership is dominated by gas, insurance, and the raw cost of materials needed to mainta

Do you think people avoid the underclass because it depletes their aura, or because they like avoiding clearly mentally ill people, or people with no ability for personal hygiene, or people who need to smoke meth on the bus? The first two a

But that is still asking people to get into the death box so that a clone of them can live on. Personally, I wouldn't accept certain death so a copy of me could live.

It also strangely helps that Singapore has almost no natural resources to exploit. So, their only resource is what the humans provide. That lead them to invest heavily in professional training instead of using their humans to pull metal out

Is it a right of any nation to assert what other nations call it? Can America ask China to stop calling them 美国 (Měiguó) and call them the USA? The problem with the turkey rebranding is that it was a mere orthographic update, but it is usin
