This is just wrong, none of those have anything to do with this website from the looks of it. Also, how can you judge a startups health with a cursory look at the site?

Good points. The state shouldn't be in it at all, because calling it marriage can be an infringement on the religious liberties of others. Civil unions are the state-sanctioned "legal pairing of two humans", and marriages are

This is by far the most ridiculous reasoning I’ve seen for a company being too big. Because too many users get restricted from the service unintentionally then the provider is too big?

That may be your perspective and the academic treatment of gentrification, but it’s use almost entirely seems to have been racial in recent years. Wealthy black people moving into a neighborhood of other black people, and displacing them, g

I’d be careful to suggest it has so much to do with “real factors” like relative safety to ease of survival and more with cultural effects. We see this observationally as subsets of the US have lifelong marriage rates in the 90%s, specifica

Do civil unions have the same “benefits” of marriage? If not there should be. I think the distinction should be socio-cultural: if you don’t accept that this civil union is “till death do us part”, then by definition it shouldn’t be marriag

I tend to take position that history is made by the present “victors” or “powerful”. Right now, Hitler was evil, Jesus was good, Ghandi is good, Rome was important, Greek philosophy matters, etc But in some future time or different place, h

If you go to lean from being fat and manage to stay there, are those fat cells eventually broken down or is that a new permanent record?

Don’t know how to edit comments, but ahead/behind numbers I’ve made before can be difficult to implement based on the actions you want to incentivize so they may just be manually updated after reviewing

It’s really an unfortunate catch-22. Women being barred from the workplace (by law or stigma) meant we lost half of society’s talent and those women who wanted to work couldn’t. Once the most eager to work start working, the other families

According to the Washington Post police shooting database, 19 unarmed black men were shot by police in all of 2019. Not exactly some runaway problem. Meanwhile your government can dictate whether your child can live or die based on their ca

While I agree with the general statement about the arbitrary nature of dress codes, conformity itself not being useful is quite the stretch. Beyond the observational evidence: that fact that every culture to ever exist in all parts of the p
