This is a persistent myth. I have found the original source of "15 hour work week" study and it turns out that the methodology is completely bunk. The researcher only categorized "…

And some people need to realize that not every business is sitting on a massive pile of cash. In fact most of our livelihoods comes from the long tail that is going to be wiped out…

Until radical left ideologues stop cockblocking any discussion about nuclear and fearmongering we aren't going to be seeing any reasonable discussion on the topic.

The point is that Germany is exporting energy when nobody needs it and is thus causing problems for the grid. France exports energy when German solar cells and wind are in a dip. M…

Offcourse they are exporting - or more accurately, forcing the neighbours to deal with their green energy surpluses. Context matters, a lot.

And you concluding that insane incarceration rates are predominantly due to racism is called critical thinking?

If you are defining law of gravity in terms of "contract" then you are having some issues.

I am not against society or law. I am against as framing law in the manner GP did.

A contract you had no participation in drafting and never signed, yet you are compelled at gunpoint to uphold it. Nice spin tho.

I would just like to note, that the gist of the problem with Hogan is that Gawker has been ordered to remove the said tape by a court and they refused to comply. That is the real r…

Particles are constantly randomly changing their state. Entangled particles change in tandem. As the GP said - to find out whether a particular change of state was random or a sign…
