Yet again, our government ignores the national security threat from foreign terrorists. The State serves only itself.

"Company pays" means "customers (taxpayers) pay", since Canvas is effectively an monopoly

Paying terrorists must be made illegal. Senior Managers must be held liable for damages to customers.

The government pays farms to burn crops. It's not the destruction that matters; it's the promise not to distribute that matters. For uniquely identifiable data and objects, a reputable extortion business will honor their promises to earn new customers

That's not what's wrong with it.

There has been almost no definitive progress in fundamental physics in the past 50-100 years.

It's a pretty standard belief. We've spent centuries as a species investigating the consequences of simple approcimate rules like F=ma.

Choosing to not comment is a vote for the status quo. We need your voice of reason and caution.

Toxic positivity is poisoning our culture. We need antidote.

Why are your people asking so many bad questions?

Good questions are "how can we X?" And good answers are "here's how: Y"

Then the asker decides if they are willing and able to Y.

Yes, not everything is worth preserving. Space and resources are limited.

Penalizes shrinking revenues, not shrinking firms. Shrinking firms who maintain revenue (layoffs!!) do well by winding down tax liability.

It's the opposite. It disincentivizes growing all software dev (not just R&D) by front-loading taxes.

It's socialization/acculturation. Humans learn how to be human from other humans. That's normal. That's what culture is. But when their role models are fake, the humans learn to be broken.

That's because of the change in interest rates and the dollar, economy-wide. If you think a stock is doing poorly, you have to show its alpha vs the market.

Also, Disney is more than a TV channel.

Film looks better because it shows less information, not more information.

Gandalf's makeup and nose pores taught that to the moviegoing public.

Motion blur is a more common example.
