Islam gave rights to woman at a time when they were treated as property everywhere else in the world. In modern time, I have never heard of someone disqualifying menstruating women from celebrating. Though they are not expected to fast or p

There are plenty of products that launch on top tools and frameworks that are worth far more than the underlying will ever be. OpenAI is creating products, DeepMind was creating tools. It's not a matter of skill as much as objective. A

And here I thought that Google would achieve AI supremacy because of all the data they have been vacuuming for decades, turns out they haven't even thought to utilize it? How did they drop the ball so hard? OpenAI has been around for l

Theres nothing disingenuous about thinking the person that earned the honor should be the one to do it. Your claim that I think I have a monopoly is disingenuous. GP stating it should be a woman, just for being a woman, is being disingenuou

SLS will never reach land, you'll be splashing down in the middle of the ocean, stuck inside a tin can getting battered by waves until NASA can scramble their limited resources to get you. The booster presumably like you will have been

H1-B should be only allowed in circumstances where foreigners are paid the same wage as their American counterparts, and the employer should have to front a sizeable fee to bring them in to disincentivize replacing American workers and ince

The point of solar on a camper van is to charge an auxiliary battery used for appliances. The range gains for the main battery pack are so minimal it wouldn't make sense unless the car spent the majority of it's time parked in the

Things are worse than ever and reading comments like this that dismiss it genuinely confuses me. So because other cities have similar or worse crime rates, we should just accept it? Urban decay is happening all across this country and it ne

Doesn't doordash make you tip before you even get your food? I noticed a long time ago it didn't matter what I tipped for delivery ahead of time, or at the register, the service I received was exactly the same. Begruding and slow.

Probably to integrate it directly. Doesn't make sense to continue operating a competing service; that's only some idiocy Google would do.

You're welcome to disagree with my presumption but you don't appear to be stating anything definitive about this matter either. All these governments have a duty to their aging population, which also tends to make up the majority
