These are not usually the types who would be interested in the care and maintenance of fruit trees. Why bother with all that work when you can steal from your neighbors?

This reads like a Tesla ad and a warning to anyone thinking of becoming self-sufficient. Wouldn't want too many people being able to generate their own electricity otherwise how wo…

What about the environmental waste of running World of Warcraft servers? Playing video games? Watching Netflix? Imagine how much electricity we'd save if everyone shut off their ga…

It's funny because this is the EXACT line the left has been parading around after every single islmaic terrorist attack. They say "not all muslims! don't blame islam, it will only …

So when do we get to write articles saying East Asian people are better at science than Australian Aboriginal people? That White people are less impulsively violent than Black peop…

Isn't this OK though for most use-cases? Startpage will effectively act as a proxy for your searches, preventing Google from associating your searches with your identity. It still …

Bitcoin won't free people who won't lift a finger to learn it just like the US constitution won't protect people unwilling to defend it. I've yet to meet someone who is unable to u…

How is this elitist? Do most people understand the current financial system in any meaningful way? Do most people understand how their computers work? How their air conditioner wor…

I'm curious as to why you don't think diversity programs are not exactly that: discrimination programs. Enforcing quotas assumes (usually incorrectly) that there is an equal supply…

Is that not what a diversity program amounts to? If the candidate was superior on merit alone then market forces would reward those companies that ignored race and gender in their …

>There is no research (to the best of my knowledge) claiming that there are biological differences between the same sex of different races. Actually there are numerous observed dif…

How about female coal miners? Female construction workers? This isn't about fairness it is all about browbeating people from a perceived moral high ground so that wages can be lowe…

Actually, diversity measures make things worse by promoting below-average candidates unfairly based on their superficial attributes (skin color, sex etc). This actually achieves th…

>The reality is that tech companies led by women do better Wow, what a sexist thing to say. Ignoring Marissa Mayer for the moment, are you claiming that women are inherently better…

As a woman I appreciate your use of "miss moneybags" instead of the classic "mr". Little changes like this are really what we need to reverse the patriarchal dominance women have b…

Do you think these people don't have extensive private security? The elite could easily take on a whole city of rioters with the resources at their disposal. When the gloves come o…

>Almost 100% of midwives in Ontario are female No, it is only a problem for the "good jobs" that are dominated by men. No one will fight for gender ratios in the coal mining busine…

Germany has "volksverhetzung" which amounts to hatespeech laws. To me it seems like an intentionally broad law banning "incitement of hatred", a noble goal for sure, but still not …

>not take 4% back on gas and 3% on restaurants yes? This is the same argument for using stuff like gmail. What, are you really gonna pay 20 bucks a year for email? I'm sure everyon…

So then based on the admittance data Asians have it easiest? Must be due to discrimination in their favor, not because they are pressured to get good grades and do well. Surely you…

If the shoe was on the other foot would we be so quick to write it off? If Google was run by right-wingers and fired LGBT activists would we say "they can do whatever they want sin…

Freedom of speech (which Germany does not have) is a core tenet of democracy. If the government can police what we say then it follows that they can prevent those from being electe…

So what happens when you run out of places to run to? Do you just wave goodbye to your Jewish neighbors? Put a headscarf on your wife and tell her not to go outside without a male …

Outside of the mess that is Bitcoin they are much cheaper than what credit/debit cards charge. More advanced coins like Ethereum take under a minute for an appropriate number of co…

India doesn't seem like an ideal location based on the number of tech emigrants going to other countries. What do you think of this phenomenon? Is there a reasonable explanation th…
