Walking is good. Walking faster is better. Walking even slightly faster? Slightly better. Running? Running is right out. However, walking EVEN faster than slightly faster? Guess what: even better.

I feel the same about pre-sliced bagels. That some jurisdictions have an additional tax on sliced bagels makes the notion, to me, even more absurd.

You forgot "ridiculously expensive." I got excited by this project several years ago, but like most of its sort: it's completely inaccessible for what it is.

In nature, it makes no sense for a virus to be both highly transmissible and highly deadly. Any such virus would cease to exist after having run amok in such a way in its hosts. Therefore, any extremely deadly virus should be looked at wi

Strong communities + mesh is a vision for a bright future. The former has become a difficult hill to climb, though.

I'd agree with that. The rules and regulations that are in place in the United States would make the founding fathers weep, by their existence alone and that they're open to use to targeting people in a way that does not speak to

I have trouble taking this article seriously when Canada, where a bill is under consideration to regulate posting on social media, is colored more free than the United States (at least if that awful heat diagram is accurate).

I've honestly never heard any story pushed as much as are the Tesla ones. Maybe it's just there isn't as venomous anti-following attached to other manufacturers as there is to Tesla.

Since private entities don't have to obey the 1st, I'd imagine not.

I'm of the position that speech we don't like should be countered with more speech. Therefore, I'd look forward to airing all the dirty laundry of every other EV manufacturer.

Indeed not insurmountable, but a plan is necessary. From the article, it doesn't seem that California are taking it too seriously, though.

Challenges as I understand them: 1. Rare minerals and their amounts needed to support wide-scale adoption of EVs 2. Similarly, massively increased electricity needs to maintain EVs' usability. I wonder whether they're going to lay

It may seem simple, but there is a deep rabbit hole when you pair liberty and things seen to reduce the impact of illness on a population. For example: it is statistically more likely for homosexual men to have HIV and other fatal transmis

So perhaps without these regulations, we wouldn't have tripped down the hill of factory farming so hard. I'd say that would have been a great alternative direction than the one we're now stuck in.

This seems overly pessimistic, and perhaps very myopically metropolitan. I can't imagine wasting food from a restaurant -- I always have taken my leftovers home and eaten them later. Even at home, stuff gets used or I feel shame, and

Most developers I've interacted with have extreme limitations outside of their immediate expertise, and some (especially those who seem to be getting culled lately) are barely functional. With that, I'd suspect one of two possibl

I'm of the comfortable opinion that legality and biology should not be so tightly bound, and that the more complex a law becomes to maintain, the less likely it is that it should be a law. It's a bit of a cop-out, but I believe l

The important discussion of sex and gender I think is done a disservice by every anomaly being presented as overwhelming evidence of a need for "redefinition." Nearly everything in biology that has a definition is defined along a
