You're being absurd. It's picking fruit, not working in a sweatshop. People from other countries want to do it. Who are you to tell them that they can't? As long as the immigrant w…

Spending all day on a farm picking fruit is not my idea of fun, but I'm glad that there are people (from other countries) who are excited to come here and do it. I certainly enjoy …

People tend to use dating websites/apps because they want to find someone _different_. People tend to have friends that are like them, but that is not always what you want in a rel…

Here we have an Indonesian company with a terrible safety record and an aircraft that hasn't been maintained properly. However, if the computer is found to have initiated the pitch…

They say that most accidents are a sequence of several failures, but from what's in this article it sure seems to me like 100% Boeing's fault. If the only maintainence problem with…

Is Elon Musk not "semi-rad"? He's seems to have a wide breadth of knowledge in multiple fields (engineering, business). He's not the best at anything other than being himself, whic…

Why would you use this instead of 4G if you are in a city like London though? It will surely be more expensive.

If that were true then divers would have to bring canisters of CO2 down with them.

I completely agree. They have all the users but their core product is shambolic. For example, Facebook messenger should be the best way to communicate with someone, yet it's surpas…

It often seems like trademark lawyers must be fairly dim, as a lot of things confuse them that don't confuse anybody else.

I think this is better implemented industrially. It's easier to make a robot that can deliver food (made in a factory), than it is to make a robot that can cook a variety of meals …

Seems like a bizarre choice. Why not build it over the border in Malaysia, Indonesia or Thailand?

Computers these days have multiple megabytes of storage capacity and can easily fit a dictionary into their hard disk drives. So you don't need to worry about loss of network conne…

Because American society punishes pregnancy. There is no practical reason why teenagers who get pregnant can't have a full education.

There is a significantly higher risk of birth defects in women in their late 30s.

There may be less competition for jobs but when you're elderly there's more competition for people to take care of you.

VSC is not the exception that proves the rule. VSC is the counterexample that disproves the rule. Slow electron apps come from a culture of not caring about performance. It's not a…

It's Asian consumers. People throw their trash in the river then it floats out to sea.

That's what I was saying. The death penalty is about making a violent example of someone (regardless of whether it is effective). A compassionate execution is a failed execution be…

The whole point of death penalties is to kill someone gruesomely as a warning to everyone else. Electric chairs do that, opioids not so much.

That is what is supposed to happen though. If you have your own currency you have more control over your economic destiny. Greece's monetary policy was set by their creditors, and …

That would be fine except that cars release poison into the air, old cars especially. Eventually banning ICE cars is an essential public health measure.

Apple doesn't allow third party JIT. They allow third party rendering engines. Blink+JSC would be acceptable but I doubt anybody wants to put the work in to make that a reality.

Quality is subjective but marketing is not. Every person has a different taste, I've played some "good" indie games that bored the socks off me. F you have enough people coming thr…

China is slightly different in that the sex ratio is skewed, there's more men than women. So giving women incentives for divorce probably wouldn't affect marriage rates that much (…
