Americans simply do not have the problem of not getting enough protein. It's a made-up idea.

It's anything but clear although I think a self-appointed group assures us they know what's best despite tolls being wildly unpopular when real people are asked.

Because those other things are optional.

It's grown slowly and deliberately. It only broke out because of the election and Elon's antics. Feels about as organic as it can get.

When everything Netanyahu doesn't like is antisemitism it begins to lose meaning/legitimacy. Which does great harm to addressing actual antisemitism.

Elon just posted a Tweet that if you post pictures of food you can get banned. Food. It's run at the caprice of a thin-skinned Napoleon at this point.

If you believe otherwise...you aggressively haven't been paying attention for the last 8 years.

The most historically accurate and least able to be gamed, predictit.org, did not overwhelmingly predict Trump.

Constant repeating of "Enemy Within" isn't Dark Lord vibes? Agree to vehemently disagree.

"If presidents could be prosecuted for their official acts"

This has always been presumed to be the case yet it has never resulted in what you say. It's a nonsense theoretical as cover for what is otherwise utterly indefensible as making the president king.

Anything can be made an official act. That's why this is unfathomably bad.

A strong likelihood of an historic hurricane season is news. At a minimum it alerts people in hurricane areas to plan ahead.

Who to blame probably does not matter one whit to those affected.

We absolutely should price reusable bags higher then.

If I forget my bags and I don't have many groceries I'll just not use bags at all. Otherwise I'll use paper, which isn't great but it's not adding to plastic trash.

Also plastic bags are generally around a $1. I'm not throwing those away, economic reasons and on principle.

Suggestion - reuse them.

"the report says 90% of the new reusable bags are used a mere two or three times."

I'm deeply skeptical of this. Who buys a reusable bag then tosses it? I've only ever thrown away one or two that got rips.

All there is is loons.

Makes me think less of YCombinator that a person of this temperament would be CEO.

We should be making much more low end housing, absolutely. That said, even the cheapest housing costs the time of tradesmen and substantial materials costs, not to mention land. It will always be a substantial chunk of minimum wage earners' income because minimum wage is too low and/or out of whack with real costs.

Why did he release just Hillary's emails when he had dirt on both sides? That doesn't sound like a journalist.

It seems to me the idea is sound but the specific implementation very difficult to get exactly right. Tax it too much and no one will want the land. But unless you tax it enough to really spur development it won't have an effect. Finding that sweet spot is the key, but is also going to be a moving target.

How dare she live in a house she's been in her whole life when the government knows what's best!

My experience is that it completes boilerplate very well. I don't generally ask it to do anything super complex, but what it does I'm very happy with.

While I cede your point to an extent, small time landlords are generally (1) small, local businesses, giving back to the local economy, and (2) very motivated to keep the places rented rather than sit idle. Which is to say at least somewhat invested in the community.

They do say this:

"Despite a negative correlation (r = −0.31, p < 0.001) between county altitude and the all-cause mortality rate, there was a strong positive correlation (r = 0.50, p < 0.001) between altitude and suicide rate at the county level (Fig. 1)."

I think the ship has sailed far past "fostering a friendly community."

The way to look at it is these are the tradeoffs, so we understand the ramifications. Do we need defense? Sure. But every $ we spend on it should be spent wisely, understanding that tradeoff.

We spend far more than we need to, and Eisenhower is 100% correct in the things we are giving up when we overspend on military.

I'm sure the fires will wait.

But then there are multiple apps. What if we put those apps into one, using the web to make it broadly accessible and searchable.

It was called Twitter.

Federation should solve this.

I'm banning them as an airline I'll consider. This is awful corporate behavior.
