You're right, I should have been more clear. There isn't a crude shock that would come from the middle east to Europe. That would be more an economic shock because of the demand from China/India on that crude which would then

I don't think the rest of the world would "outright shun us." I think that the rest of the world that you're describing are mainly European countries that are highly dependent on Gulf oil access. They need to be careful

I'm not sure I understand your argument - you seem to have proven my point. They always could close the Strait and they eventually did. In this case the US is already energy independent and could absorb the shock.

Let me give you a new perspective. First, I agree with you on the drones. They're a new entrant to the battlefield and the US has had to learn to adapt. You're viewing Iran as a simple country vs. country war. This war is not abou

thanks for proving my point. There's no evidence other than you falling prey to the tropes of yesterday. In what world does it make sense that Israel controls our government? Only in the world where you think that Israel controls our b

Truck drivers and the hours they're on the road need to be logged per law. Most of this is done (or perhaps MUST be done) electronically.

>>It's effectively x-ray vision into some huge workloads running on their competitors. I wonder if there are antitrust lawyers watching this closely. Would be really interesting to get their perspective on this.

Well yes but Boeing also said it "would not result in a safety of flight condition." There's a lot of gray going on here.

Don't be duped by China's clean energy talk. Their energy infra is mainly coal and they continue to build (dirty) coal plants. They sell you solar infra so that you can feel good about protecting the world while they continue to b

Agreed and this is a good comment. It's strange that people in SV pretend like if they refuse to build software then nobody else will. Palantir exists (and has been so successful) because the government was trying to build this softwar

We should be clear about these cases that are brought against him (I'm not saying he isn't guilty, but context is important here): Case 1 - as Minister of Communications he, allegedly, tried to get a tax extension for a company w

Iran has killed, threatened, or killed-through-proxy many Americans in the last 50 years. They have created and sown instability throughout the region threatening Israel, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia just to name a few. Notice that none of their

Maybe you don't care as much about politics (for or against) and instead care about working on something at the bleeding edge. If you want to work for a company on the bleeding edge then it's hards to find one further than a Musk

I'm saying that people _say_ they have issues with sweatshops but when push comes to shove they're willing to buy the Nikes. I'm not trying to make a decision here on right vs. wrong just pointing out that most people _say_ t

And that's fine, but they're solely yours. 57% of US citizens support expanding the military. Further you have no evidence to back up your claim that anything outside of the Air Force and nukes are all that are required to properl

This is a strange view. Weapons development is at best helpful as it hopefully provides a deterrent to nefarious actors and at worst protects our interest as Americans if someone caused us to move beyond weapons as a "deterrent."

I'm not sure what data you're using to prove this but it seems like many of the largest brands in the US are still using sweatshop labor [1]. Many still have no idea of what's going on in Xinjiang [2] 1. https://yo

At the end of the day I don't think we're arguing here and I'm not saying that the OP _shouldn't_ speak to a lawyer but here are a few choice comments from this post that I'll use to prove my point: First - the TOP

Maybe fear mongering is overstating but... Speaking to a lawyer is not the first step when building something in this domain (unless you already have someone bankrolling you). In this case there's an app that this guy built for familie

I think the fear-mongering here has spiraled out of control. This app seems to be a place that patients (and their caregivers read:family) can upload and share data amongst themselves. While you might not fall directly under HIPAA laws (as

This is true of both sides. Also important to remember is that Israel evacuated the civilian population in the north of the country due to Hezbollah currently indiscriminately shelling/bombing that area for the past months.

A couple of things on this: 1. It appears that the AUMBC referenced replaced their equipment but that had nothing to do with this and their doctors weren't impacted. 2. Your note of "...other enemies of Israel will be significantl
