    Namaskaram, I don't know of many part time engineering positions, but the trend is growing, e.g. [1]. However I'm confident that you could find a position that would pay you that s…

    "crop deaths tho" is not a stable argument. Eating meat requires death. But there are ways to avoid killing animals when harvesting grains etc. And in any case, it's a very inflate…

    If I understand correctly, then I would say it's your choice to perpetuate owning a pet, specifically a dog. And in fact, as pointed out elsewhere in this thread, with careful plan…

    Feedstock production is highly efficient. Grazing animals for meat is very inefficient in terms of caloric output. This is to say nothing about morality or even nutrition.
