Is it really true that Sweden has no go zones where police are afraid to enforce the law and ambulances get attacked by migrants?

Here's what your "democratically-legitimized PhD filled institutions" have cleverly orchestrated. https://wallstreetonparade.com/2020/03/fed-announces-program... I'll take the disi…

Exactly. Once the occupying force was removed from those countries the underlying ethnic conflict resumed openly. Similar things will happen elsewhere as US military power wanes.

Yes, and that claim is wrong. Germany has had 50,000 US troops stationed in it for 75 years and the most rebellious thing they've done is politely ask for their gold back (US said …

Wow, published in 1909. Amazing how old (and wrong) this "economic mutually assured destruction" argument is. I think it's popular today as a distraction from the fact that the Ame…

Interesting. The McDonald's thing is sort of like saying that no two Soviet Socialist Republics have ever gone to war. It just means they aren't really sovereign independent countr…

It absolutely would be a betrayal of the people you'd be giving up on to not do everything we can to help them while we still can. You can advocate for or against taking strong act…

Why not? It's just giving some context to people who may think .2% is a "low" mortality rate. Thanks for the age specific number. That shows my point even more.

For comparison, the death rate across all age groups of flu is 0.1%. Extrapolating out, a failure to contain the virus will still mean tens of thousands of young healthy people dyi…

Google, Microsoft, Apple and even Firefox have an incentive to reduce competition by making the web as complex as possible. If the web is to be free, it must be radically simplifie…

I think his point is that if people set the objectives, the AI will learn what people like, and that is going to be discriminatory in some way.

See the reply by masonic. The article makes no mention of this being different other than the added protection for the officers, but like I said the tone is clearly attempting to g…

I'm really tired of being called a fascist for wanting to live in a country with boarders. You certainly didn't misapprehend the narrative this article is trying to push. I don't t…

That's the point. The people making the above arguments are unsympathetic racists. The fact that a subset happen to be members of the group they attack is quite odd but still just …

I guess we should smash all the printing presses which are used to print books containing disinformation too. Should probably just burn all the books with disinformation already pr…

That article says 50,000 accounts were "linked to Russia". Do you know who linked them to Russia and by what criteria? They weren't actually controlled by the Russian government be…

By unambiguously taking this side of a highly partisan political issue, I fear TBL has lost a lot of credibility in the eyes of many of the people he needs to fix the actual proble…

Do upper class americans really have an obligation to help working class americans if it means neglecting the millions of people in other countries who want jobs and are willing to…

It depends on what you're doing. Low level stuff pretty much has to be C. But for applications I agree there are much better alternatives these days.

It's hard for me to imagine New York City being so safe and relaxed about security that no one had a problem letting any old dude with a camera into underground construction sites …

Your alternative sounds an awful lot like what has been done in china by other means.

A prty that anyone with any views can join isn't a real party, and having two of them doesn't help.

I think a lot of non-technical business people and journos didn't fully understand that the Bitcoin blockchain is more than just a Merkel tree, and so have started using "blockchai…

My theory is that the nerds on here who spend too much time in the financial fun house become imbibed with the ethos of it. It's really a sad end to a lot of idealistic young hacke…
