If morality is a human construct, then it is arbitrary.
I don't understand this comment. If morality is a human construct then it would not be arbitray (ie random or unrestrained) but directly related to human flourishing and welfare. Not if morality is a Super Being construct... then it might be with respect to us puny humans... arbitary.
...regardless of what he believes or not...he's separated from God for eternity...even Pascal believed it was better to be wrong than separated for an eternity...
Pacal's wager is game theory... plain and simple. But bad game theory as he didn't fill in the whole decision/reward matrix. For example, perhaps those that didn't believe in fairy tales and anthropomophic gods and did good without the explicity reward promist are those that will be truly rewarded in the end. Where does that put you?
What an atheist wants is to be apart from God, that's what they get.
That is prehaps the stupidist comment here... i know, i know it gets passed around in churchy circles - but it is just stupid. If someone wanted to be apart from God, then they would not be an atheist... but an angry theist. Do you want to be apart from Zeus? From Krishna? Or do you just not believe those concepts and proposals are viable? Think before spouting stupid platitudes - as it reveals that you haven't thought very deeply.
Nice whatboutism
This isn't whatboutism but correlation fella!
Only one way to do anything.
Except that isn't true... for example you can format a string in several different ways. And then there is the different ways between 2 and 3.
Perl's simple string interpolation is much easier and straightforward.
Number 2. Is actually evidence we are a simulation... it is not a conservation technique but evidence that the whole thing is run on a digital computer.
In typical hypocritical fashion, Trump expanded the H2B by 15000 this year and even hired 70 workers at Mar-a-lago
Every job in that H2B category depresses wages for American workers. If these were immigrants, at least they would be engaging in the economy buying houses, cars, etc. The guest worker hunkers down, saves money and takes it out of our country.
How does he get away with this?
Carnegie Mellon, MIT and UC Berkeley has worked up some numbers under the "Jobs" Tax plan

The taxes liability of a typical Ph.D. Student with a $20K stipend and a $42K tuition waiver would change from $900 to over $7000! A 700% increase in taxes, putting them in over a 30% tax bracket. This plan is attacking the future market makers, medical miracle works, inventors, high tech entrepreneur, etc. This is not pro-growth or fair.
Forbes also has a recent article on this.
Insightful... yes exactly that. The market sets the income. Supply and demand. What are people expecting that the gov't intervenes to set the wages? Stupid outrage here.
