I don't know but I understand it was a problem before Trump, maybe before Trump was born.

I am irritated that you completely ignored the substance of my post. Way to attack a strawman.

When mythbusters debunks something, they usually debunk it in a single scenario. They don't go through all the effort to exhaustively explore the search space. That is why they are criticized for not being scientific.

Mythbusters shines when they prove something is possible. Break a glass with your voice? That's where they are at they strongest. (There is still room for alternate hypothesis, maybe the singer held the glass too tightly? But it's a solid piece of experimental evidence).

20hz is not the level you can hear, it's the level where repeated pressure changes get unified in your brain to a single tone.

Below that level, your brain perceives them as individual beats. At 20hz they are coming pretty quick, but if you listen (and they are loud enough) you can distinguish each one.

I have no idea, ask ChatGPT. She probably knows all the answers to everything ever and she's really good at logic and math.

According to the article, they had to pay the companies to keep them from suing the government, because their method was "unorthodox." That is to say, not entirely putting the bell on the cat. Or in other words, illegal.

According to the administration (in the article):

I have not looked at the numbers to see if that's a true pretext, but anyway that is their pretext.

These corporations that own tons of apartment buildings have become leaches, literally rent seekers. It's unhealthy for the economy. The Wikipedia article explains why it hurts the economy overall.

That's why Bren is a bad example, he's a rent seeker.

I have (although it depends on what you mean by poor).

Most of the time you will only get hired by people making a percentage more than you. That is normal.

What is not normal is for a single person to receive a massive portion of a company's wealth. In a field with good competition, those kinds of companies will be uncompetative. A fair marketplace makes incomes relatively flat.

We all have to pay taxes, it's part of being an American. So collectively we decided to fuck you.

Really? I liked Borders, but as far as I could tell, Barns and Noble and Borders were basically clones of each other.

Antiracist math has been widely reported. It's associated with the D team, although I wouldn't say it's far left.

There is a fight over phonics in education, but I don't know which party supports it and which party opposes it.

It would be interesting to do an FOI investigation to see what they've actually been doing with all that information for the past 25 years (other than LOVEINT), since there's no evidence they've stopped terrorist attacks using it.

The problem with surveillance, one of them...

I don't like it, but I'm willing to hear arguments in favor of mass surveillance, then we can make a cost/benefit chart and compare and see how it turns out.

But they have nothing! How many terrorist events have they prevented through mass surveillance? Zero! Let the program die! We'll save money that way.

Newsom isn't even well-liked in his own state. He's an incompetent pretty face. It's hard to take the rest of your post seriously here.

I agree. Those people aren't running next term.

First off, there's no guarantee Ivanka Trump won't win next term. Next term, we are going to have another reality TV star type as candidates, because democrats will try to field someone who can beat someone like Trump.

This is how Idiocracy happens. Not because people are genetically incapable, but because they don't know anything other than reality TV. It's the Ray Bradbury Farenheit 451 world.
