Not in Africa. The plan is to have billions of Africans migrate to Europe to do the work instead, due to the climate crisis. When they get to Europe, they are going to expect the same quality of life that Europeans have historically enjoyed

There is something really special about European development. Chinese history is absolutely fascinating with a lot of super cool inventions, but nothing stands close to European history and it's power.

That really doesn't sound healthy. Babies need real interaction, they don't need to slap a screen and make funny noises. Screens are flat, they have no texture. Sadly, babies which are underexposed to stimuli often display develop

This is actually kinda true with doordash etc. Those drivers are completely unvetted, they don't even have an interview. The kind of people that can't get a job at a pizza place. Personally, I never order delivery through these se

Continual selection of entities which survive. For example, sand is the natural evolved substrate of beaches. Shells get ground into sand, anything heavier sinks to the bottom of the ocean.

I'll leave that as an exercise to the reader. Imagine how our society would change if these liars and grifters were not constantly brainwashing our friends and family on the topics of: - Economics - Climate - Health - Social wellbeing

Actually, the earth is subject to evolutionary pressure in a sense. This is the only planet that supports life (that we know of). That's because it's natural properties endured through billions of years to support life. It's

Personally, I just use my instincts. If my instincts are wrong, well, there's always another lifeform that will evolve someday, even if that's billions of years from now. Hopefully they will be smarter than myself. If not, a few b

Not the op but, I've seen this for lots of reasons. Sometimes just a roll of the dice. Large companies tend to lay off more. If you've only worked in startups, it's very possible you may never be laid off. I've never bee

No, no, no. Being nice to our family and kin is what made us strong. Being nice to the whole world? Not so much.

Then we would live in a high-trust society, like the United States and Europe used to be 100 years ago. Or like Singapore is now. But we don't, and never will again, for very complicated reasons.

This, more rules for thee but not for me. Pepsi can pay $10MM for the main character in a kid's movie to drink a Pepsi. But if a small board game company sends an influencer a free board game, an influencer is not allowed to review it.
