How would that imply lack of security? Wouldn't it be perfect if every single homicide by a stranger was by a cop? It would mean that a cop was there every time to stop the crimina…

Well, yes, though a nuke would not detonate at ground level which would make it more destructive for most purposes (apart from bunker destruction). Plus 1kt is very very small for …

Would they really? I bet most people wouldn't want to go into space. A lot of people can now bungee-jump, fly their own planes, fly in a balloon, paraglide, deep dive, yet how many…

Well the USSR used over 30 million people as slave labor in their gulags, which were mostly involved in construction works and natural resources extraction. That can certainly adva…

That's not at all what the article says. Naturally, it is good that the stock market goes up, i.e., the values of the companies goes up, if it's because of improved performance. Th…

Wouldn't cyber squatting laws just hand over the domain to their party if asked? They are even being asked for money, even if only in jest, which strengthens their case.

Internet speeds are usually measured in bits though, and include the protocols overhead, not just the final bytes transferred in HTTP. Right now my download speed is 10.62Mbps and …

It is unreasonable to deny the entire public of works of art that are culturally relevant.

Of course you could do anything, it is a very touristic city and Spain forces Castilian spanish to be taught in schools. Also, you can tell the polls are not that favorable or the …

Well of course. If he used examples that crashed and burned the reader would not have heard of them.

If the laws are good, if I agree with the means and the ends, then I do not mind the wrong people defending it, or for the wrong reasons. So let's all sustain for a second our disb…

A nuke would not "desintegrate" steel-reinforced concrete buildings.

And is there anything at all wrong with separatism?

Are you serious? Because I'm pretty sure there is some random "user experience checkbox" checked by default that somehow means some of the data is sent to Google so they can "impro…

I think that a lot of people miss the point that most people don't care about updates. Most people want a phone that does the same thing when it was bought and as many years later …

It's time people realize that a great deal of scientific papers are just written as a requirement to finish a masters/doctors degree, or are just about meeting the yearly publicati…

Yes, because "pedophile" right now just means "horrible person", when it actually had a definition already - "person sexually attracted to prepubescent/pubescent children". And thi…

But they will be anonymous and the level of conversation will probably not be very high.

I really, really, do not understand why some people's reaction to this is trying to get him fired or to apologize. Right here we have one human being that will ponder on random iss…

He is technically correct though.

I don't get what the author is complaining about. That there are too many aspiring musicians? That there is not enough public demand? I see the meritocracy working perfectly here, …

Heh, doesn't look too bad. Isn't the whole "full mobilization of all of humanity for stopping global warming" even worse? Coral reefs are useless, 24% of global population facing w…

Or maybe attend a peaceful protest asking for political change.

Because the issue mentioned begs the question, since there isn't any reason why the boys wouldn't be feeling similarly.
