I do not understand what you would expect from research work. Do you expect that research work in mathematics be written in such a way that any lay person could understand it? Or c…

I think that you actually understood the point perfectly! I'm a native english speaker, and to me, it looks like he is trying to raise the exact ambiguities that you are asking abo…

It's also just cruel. Twitter employees must be feeling immense whiplash. First they were being bought out, then they weren't, then they were again, then a huge change in work cult…

I suppose that's one way to do it. I don't think that it makes any sense, but you're entitled to it. I do believe, however, that you are disregarding tens of thousands of principle…

> If you're arguing the government should be able to break up any company it likes, for any reason it decides That's great, because I'm not arguing that. My post does not imply as …

I don't think that your assertion makes sense in its own context. What you are saying is that "SPD" exists, and "ADHD" is just a modern rebranding of it. But why do you decide that…

This is true, as a broad statement at least. I can claim no expertise in the area, so I can't comment on the potential to reverse any such changes. It is also possible that they ar…

No, they are different things. I am honestly quite confused as to how you could think that they were the same thing. They both exist as a constellation of separate diagnostic crite…

Why does a company need to be a monopoly in order to break them up? In an "ought to" sense, that is. Facebook has facilitated/amplified quite a bit of awful things that have lead t…

What is wrong with you?

> That's how society works. People have adjusted their self to fit in, they expect the same from everybody else. This makes it seem like a personal failing of the person who is exp…

These are different things. They may share some overlapping symptoms, perhaps even some similar brain changes, but the internal phenomenology of them are quite different. They are …

Many human cultures have existed and thrived without the basis that "producing significantly more power" is the reason to do things. Our archaeology and history have had trouble gr…

"The limitations are of the author's rational reasoning, not of rational reasoning itself. You can reason about what brings you pleasure, and make rational decisions to pursue it."…

The Venn diagram of C-levels who are willing to work at a company with an inherently predatory business model, and those who will lay people off and screw them over is basically a …

"Its a matter of knowing where to find the place that can treat you." This is fine if you can plan in advance and have the funds to travel, but what if you can't? What if you're in…

I don't agree that this is "precisely" why insurance and care is so expensive. Other countries do this just fine. The main reason that it's so expensive in the US is because we hav…

"US and UK are libertarian" Can you elaborate on why you believe this? I don't see any way that the US and the UK are Libertarian, unless the definition of that word is stretched m…

"An American far-right activist group Project Veritas released a video purportedly showing..." Project Veritas has a long history of fabricating charges against their political opp…

Agreed. I think that any complaints from tech executives about “coddled” employees are simply cover. Unless and until they also cut their own massive salaries and stock benefit pla…

It's possible that your information is flagged in a third-party risk monitoring system that these companies all use. Perhaps something like ThreatMetrix, from LexisNexis. There are…

While it's true that individual consumers make choices like this, it's not fair to blame individuals for systemic problems. If a person making a low wage is given the choice betwee…

"Now add increased tax rates." Aren't tax rates on businesses currently lower than they were during the last period of high inflation in the US?

"You can pretty much assume that half of those deaths were not related to COVID" Can you produce a source backing up your claim?
