There’s a reason why most people stay on mindless consumerism…

C has undefined behavior for that.

IMO, I can’t see how making progress on car maintainability would be easier than on car dependency.

One depends on local politics, the other on national (or maybe even national to a foreign nation) politics or somehow convincing a global oligopolist to lose a bit of money to help your cause.

But if you want to work on it, good luck and all the power to you. Don’t stop just because another problem exists.

Community mechanic shops and education need to be more common.

Nah, what you need is fewer cars and to not depend on them to stay alive.

The role they play on the court is bad, and shouldn’t exist. A criminal court shouldn’t be “the State against X”, it should be X defending themselves, and the State looking for what really happened. Nobody should be “against X”. The State goes against specific people in kangaroo courts, not real ones.

And yeah, names don’t always matter. But on this case they seem to reflect the reality almost perfectly.

On “District Attorney”, they don’t defend the district on courts. But this one name seems to not matter.

Also, honestly, I don’t know how your rules for confession aren’t constantly questioned on international courts for violating human rights. You can’t just take a defendant’s word that they did it.

Anyway, none of that is “corruption” exactly. It’s a different problem. Don’t expect the remedies that exist for corruption to work with it.

All courts work the same.

They don’t. And the way the US courts work is almost exclusive to them.

Even that “prosecutor” name is bad.

The State is there to find and punish the right people, not to go after a random person they selected.

On most countries, the equivalent to a prosecutor will insist that the police works correctly, and will throw away cases if some evidence appear that the suspect is innocent.

I wonder if they will extend citizenship to all the new areas they annex.

It is indeed a simple and very smart solution to the problem of illegal immigrants that the guy promised to solve in his campaign. I never expected smart solution from him in particular…

Well, with the added detail that the censorship would only apply to Chinese people. You won’t get a good real-world metaphor.

It’s still quite messed up, and if ml mods dislike the other instances rules that much, they should just defederate them.

The “active” status.

Any project with it set is active, any project with it not set isn’t. And you set them all to active when you create the toggle.

If the users complain, you make them tell you an specific rule that can you can use to auto-change a subset of the projects in a cron job. Expecting anything like this to have a complete objective definition is delusional.

Much of the Special Relativity value was on Lorenz mechanics anyway.

And General Relativity, the Photoelectric Effect explanation, and his explanation for the Brownian movement all needed a great deal of anti-establishment thinking… honestly, I have no idea how much Newton had of that.

Most people are way above (possibly in the top 1%) the average in a bunch of things.

Anything you do in space will alter the Earth’s orbit by some amount. But unless you strip mine an small planet out there, you won’t get enough material for the change to matter.

Well, is some mix of alternative futures that may or may not pan-out on reality.

Unless he has some kind of mental problem, he must not stop forming himself.

I think there’s a very large correlation between people that decide to use electron and people that write unusable, broken, tortoise-speed software.

Because it really doesn’t need to be slow for user-interacting software. In fact, I don’t think any platform exists that is so bloated that it can make modern computers slow for user-interaction.

He can’t be from another time if he is there right now…

Components from hardware stores have all kinds of composition. If you don’t know what it’s made from, why would you assume it’s safe?

Even “stainless steel” can have all kinds of different compositions, some highly allergenic, some out-right toxic.
